  • "So... Who issues the hunting permits for hurricane season?! Where can I get one!? Gosh I feel so silly as the head of FEMA for not knowing we hunt hurricanes! Lord Emperor Trump was actually hunting hurricanes when he suggested nuking them! Wow!"

  • These Christians love to wear their mascot like a badge while completely contradicting the explicit lessons of the book.

    Because they don't actually believe in anything but greed. They use religion as a tool to gain power. Hypocrisy be damned, they couldn't care less. It's the religious idiots that refuse to see this that kill me... But then again it's completely understandable, we are stuck in a 2 party system where it's "the ultimate evil" vs "people I generally agree with but don't particularly like." (That goes for whatever side you're on. We all see the politicians the same, except for the insane Trump cultists.)

  • The only reason to point out her weight is to trigger some unnecessary reaction of disgust from people. It's not a matter of factual or not, it's not relevant at all to the story about "abducting and torturing" a person. Why does it matter at all that she's obese? They didn't put "short dark haired, white, brown eyed...." They chose obese for a reason and to me it's kinda gross to be enforcing the whole "weight shame" thing. Like yeah this person is supremely fucked up, but you put that stuff out there like it's normal and ok to shame someone for which has an effect when taken in with the rest of what we observe in any given day.

    What dailymail has to do with it is they're a shit rag tabloid outlet that runs the kind of nonsense stories you used to see about people finding Bigfoot and whatnot so it makes sense they'd be framing something like this. It's a form of click bait to be honest, it doesn't have to be a lie to be click bait it just has to attract your click. The obese part isn't necessary but it might get someone to click.

  • That's because they're younger and haven't earned as much burnout yet! They're just entering the burnout market, back in my day I had just as much burnout as they do but now I've been in the burnout market long enough to earn more burnout! They'll catch up soon, it's not unfair it's just how gaining experience works!

    (Read above as: boomers and wealth hand waving) :P

  • Meanwhile my job where it's pretty much literally a sweatshop during the summer: no we can't try 4 day weeks just for the summer either, we need to ship product 5 days a week...

    We sell expensive as fuck seats for rich people's yachs. Yeah... Totally a need society couldn't stand waiting another day for.

  • Ok Alito, so where's your free speech protections for this case?

    The 11 year old bigot can wear a shirt that puts people down, but this person can't express themselves online simply stating a fact about themselves?

  • A 7th grader? That's like what 11 years old and you're already a bigoted prick? Something tells me there's a household of fox news obsessed assholes rotting this kids brain or he spent entirely way too much time on 4chan before it was taken down.

  • "Parry" in monster hunter wilds: too slow to be a reactive option, user must be psychic or memorize monster movements in order to anticipate next potential movement.... I hate it.

    I do love parrying as a general concept though.

  • Capping things off before the long holiday weekend came a social media post from White House budget chief Russ Vought, publicly belittling the agency for its findings that the administration illegally withheld money Congress had previously approved for supporting electric vehicle infrastructure.

    Are we just done referring to Vought for what he is? One of the key heritage foundation members responsible for project 2025?

  • I would hope for that kind of AI in the distant future, hopefully one where we've moved past the concept that the "owners" of the AI deserve 100% of profit generated by the AI. Otherwise we're going to have AI and robotics capable of doing the vast majority of work, and a gigantic population that can't afford to feed themselves.

    Which lying, self absorbed, narcissistic, greedy, asshole runs the country will be much lower on the list of concerns in that world. Unfortunately I think we're charging head first into a world where "there are too many people" becomes a common talking point because of lack of work. :(
