Even the “slop” is quality content. Media colors our understanding of things, and for better or worse the general understanding of legal proceedings comes from things like movies and r/LegalAdvice disasters.

He provides informed and informative reviews of common level misconceptions through those videos, meeting people where they are to educate them about the facts. When a piece of media gets it right, and when it’s so off that you’d get tackled by the bailiff, are valuable insights to the layperson.

Oh it doesn’t, it’s a hot sauce and one of the ingredients is also black truffle

Classic black Truff sauce. The black truffle elevates just about everything I put it on, and the heat has depth instead of just being heat.

Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you’ve got a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies-“God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.”

It’s a matter of memorizing a few algorithms, I did it when I wasn’t much older than him. It’s pretty easy to solve the first two layers unaided, but you’re likely to get into the weeds on the last layer without algorithms.

USA, so my familiarity with functional public transport is shakey at best.

bus

ticket inspector

Are they talking about the driver or does their bus have someone punching tickets like a train?

What part of the Hippocratic Oath does this refer to? If anything, the Oath specifies “us[ing] those dietary regimens which will benefit my patients according to my greatest ability and judgment”.

“Actually officer I have a prescription”

Yup, SLABS. They’re a massive part of the derivative market, especially since student loans aren’t discharged through bankruptcy.

Get off it.

Yeah the move is to be supportive, but follow Adam Savage’s policies on gear: start with the cheapest option that’s serviceable, and go for the best stuff once the cheap stuff breaks (or you get good enough to justify the good stuff).

I’ve dabbled in a lot of hobbies and I follow this principle. Sometimes I get bored, and the low investment was well worth the experience of experimenting. Sometimes I keep at it intermittently, but the cheap gear is sufficient for my use. Sometimes I get good enough to justify the upgrade.

I’ll be honest, I don’t think that jacket is very flattering. I’d probably take that zipper down about halfway to let the lapels lay out, better framing that way.

Waist down slays tho

If I had a nickel for every pope elected during my life who looked like Palpatine at some point in his arc, I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

That’s what I’m saying. Some people want that, some people don’t. Some people wanna be passengers.

Some people would say the price of an occasional plane ticket is better than the hours of study necessary to get a license. “Better” really depends on your goal. Not everyone really wants to get a license.

That said, if you fly every day, it’s probably not a bad thing to look into.

This isn’t partisan, you’re fighting human nature here. Most people aren’t that politically engaged. How many people were surprised Biden wasn’t on the ballot?

Most people aren’t following politics, they follow a vibe that they think about every few years and then go on not worrying about. Things have to get really bad before the average person thinks critically about their political representation beyond sports tribalism.

Every convert is +2, don’t disincentivize that.

The bigger “Umm, actually” is that during spawning season, their outsides are that color.

I draw a distinction between “complaining” and “lodging a complaint”, based on the subject and recipient.

“Complaining” is when the recipient of the complaint is someone other than the subject (e.g. criticizing the actions of Democrats to online leftists). This doesn’t really accomplish anything.

“Lodging a complaint” is when the recipient is the subject (e.g. criticizing the actions of Democrats via direct correspondence, or criticizing online leftists in a space inhabited predominantly by online leftists). This is effective communication and has the potential to actually prompt a response to the complaint.

SMCF is pretty clearly utilizing the second to bring attention to the problem of the first. And it is a huge problem. These leftist spaces are packed with ideological purists who favor moral superiority to effective action that requires strategy and compromise.
