What’s with the NSFW tag police in the comments lately? The most mild shit sets them off.

This feels like it’s supposed to be a dig on Star Wars if it weren’t for the fact that it’s got both Carrie Fisher and Natalie Portman.

I like to imagine we’d all be happier and better people if city infrastructure wasn’t designed around trying to get cars from A to B instead of people.

Great! I finally have an excuse to take that hiatus I’ve been meaning to do for the past several years. You’ve got my number when everything breaks! Oh, and when it does my rate is gonna be double what it is now.

Isn’t fury one of the seven deadly sins?

Doesn’t even have to be radioactive. Too much salt will kill you, as will any rock with sufficient mass and velocity.

Feels like a Facebook boomer meme

Too late, for me at least

I just installed Linux Mint last weekend. Working great so far!

Oh that actually makes a lot of sense!

The idea that you’re “supposed” to spend $X on a ring is absurd. Are you getting engaged to show off your wealth or to commit to a relationship? What does spending excessive amounts of money on a trinket have anything to do with the latter?

I wouldn’t call myself frugal by any means, I generally support people spending their money on nice things that they find value in so long as they’re not living beyond their means.

That being said, IMHO dropping $5k on a ring makes you a god damn idiot.

From what I remember about 2012, our greatest worry was the Mayan calendar ending and speculation that they had predicted the end of the world. What a simpler time.

I never pre-order. I broke that rule exactly once and pre-ordered No Man’s Sky, boy did they make a fool out of me. Never again.

There are plenty of games I play that are on early access, the qualifier is whether the game is in a playable state and is fun to play (by account of online reviews or friend’s recommendations).

Another idea could be to see if local small businesses would be willing to sell your wares! I’ve seen stuff like handmade earrings and trinkets for sale at the register at small coffee shops in my town, plenty of other businesses also have paintings and photographs by local artists on the walls for sale. I have no insight on those agreements are made but I’d imagine they would ask for a commission.

You may have already looked into it and I’m not sure what the farmer’s market scene is where you are but I often see small scale makers selling wares at mine!

“Turn your hobby into a business!”, they said. “It’ll be fun!”, they said.

My EV charging app sent me a wrapped-style email the other day. Full of stuff like the station that I used most often. It’s too much.

The fundamental argument here is that it’s not the system which incentivizes abusers that is the problem but rather the abusers who exploit the system. Sure, we can have another working class revolution, keep capitalism around and build institutions that keep exploitation in check but given enough time those with capital and the power that it represents will chip away at those institutions, continuing the cycle and harming people in the process.

This doesn’t bother me. It would bother me if 220 * 2 = 540. The equation in this meme should be something like 11 * 11 ≠ 111
