It’s always projection. Even if they’re not literally doing the thing that they accuse their opponent of doing yet, the fact that they’re making the accusation reveals their intention.

Ah shit, this means they’re gonna do everything they made up about Xinjiang (if they’re not doing it already at the alligator place)

I would do TV shows and movies that I like. Yeah streaming but having a local copy is great and often faster especially where I live.

This is very game dependent. Right now I’m in a pretty brutal one where everyone is branded by the goddess of mind control and we have miniboss encounters with our own former PCs who’ve been turned into grotesque monsters - but I’ve also played in games where the PCs were newcomers to Olympus and more or less ended up recreating the first few God of War games.

This is what drove me to Debian. I like stability, I don’t need cutting edge, simple as.

“you’ll own nothing and be happy” is also a fair descriptor of software piracy come to think of it

the transparent/translucent electronics trend of the 90s and early 2000s

I’ve been feeling nostalgic for this look lately. I really like how it emphasizes the artificial nature of the device in question and invites you to think about how it works and how it was put together - while minimalist electronics do exactly the opposite, almost as if you’re embarrassed about owning it and want to pretend that it’s not there.

Should be noted that Europe had commons for hundreds and hundreds of years before they all got enclosured and they managed them just fine with local-level spontaneous democracy.

Also the “tragedy of the commons” as we know it today was invented by a malthusian in the 1960s and everybody who invokes it as an argument against socialism ignores the part of the essay where the author advocates for central planning

If there’s any discounts they probably take the form of a link on a website that gets you 10% off (clicking the link installs a cookie that increases your prices on that website by 10%)

Put my dog on my back and fly around the world with her!

Been doing rideshare late at night the last week, holy damn I didn’t realize how bad the public bathroom situation was in my town, and I’ve got a car to hunt for one.

We should genuinely have a public bathroom minimum. You want to run a store in town? You gotta make your bathroom open to the public. Don’t care if the people using it are customers or not.

I believe there was some tax-benefit for them in the US at some point…? Then it makes a tiny bit if sense i guess.

It’s even stupider than you think. California made a rule requiring that auto makers transition to making EVs, but exempted certain heavy vehicles from the transition, and auto makers responded by turning every single car into a heavy exempted vehicle. Twenty years of marketing later and now you can’t convince an American to buy a reasonably-sized car, which is why crossovers are a thing.

Fan orders are a terrible idea don’t do them. Watch in release order, feel free to skip parts that aren’t interesting. The fact of the matter is that the entire series has been written by the seat of the pants of the people making it, meaning that there are absolutely no insights to be gained by watching prequels before the originals, and every entry in the series has taken great pains to be comprehensible on its own. If you skip stuff you might miss out on some “I RECOGNIZE THAT!” moments in later material, but that’s fine.

Also… the prequels are really bad. You may want to skip them entirely. I would suggest watching the Original Trilogy, The Clone Wars (the 2D animated tv movie, not the 3D animated tv show), the Mandalorian season 1, and then Andor seasons 1 & 2. Those series represent everything worthwhile in the Star Wars TV and movie canon, literally nothing else is worth your time.

This is really specific, but in my town the gas station has a burger and hot dogs grill attached to it that’s run by like one guy that serves what you’re describing. I guess if I was looking for someplace similar in another town I would hunt around for places that serve burgers that don’t even have a name, true holes-in-walls basically.

I wanna visit the Indus Valley Civilization and see what they were about. If I’m not changing history I’m just gonna be a temporal tourist, hosting a livestream where I ask Romans where the best fast food is at and stuff.

The way it’s depicted in cartoons is not a thing, but Ventriloquism is definitely a thing. Turns out it’s mostly about making people look somewhere else while you talk (such as at your puppet) which creates an auditory illusion.
