It does work, you just have to have someone with charisma to pull it off. Obama has charisma. Trump has charisma. LBJ had charisma. FDR had charisma.

Biden has read the definition of charisma in a dictionary published in 1986.

They really want to fuck with it? Wait for IPO day and THEN stage a mass protest. That, I would love to see.

Does that baby contribute to the economy?

Avasarala and (TV) Drummer were absolute badasses.

“Let’s go hydrate… with some beers” is said too much in my household.

My wife and I had our son via IVF. We wanted every single one of our fertilized eggs to work, but they didn’t. We had one that did and we suffered every time one didn’t.

Fuck Alabama for adding on to the torment and emotional suffering families going through IVF and any kind of infertility suffer already. It’s just adding unspeakable cruelty again.

I don’t mind. Fuck all those people.

Obligatory “if you’ve never seen the Defunctland series about Jim Henson you should because it is great” post.

You want me to show it to the cat? Cause the cat’s gonna get it!

Kojima and cyborg ninjas - name a more iconic combo

It most definitely is where the BSG character’s name came from btw.

When he starts telling you to kill brunettes, you may want to let someone know. Son of Ralph just doesn’t have the same flair.

Nope, that’s just how bad at marketing union busters are. Guess that’s what happens when you are selling a shit idea.

I have a job where it takes up about 25% of my day to accomplish my work, and the other 75% of the time is spent doing whatever I like and watching my son.

It’s pretty goddamn fulfilling.

I mean, that’s kind of exactly what Hubspot is supposed to be used for? It’s a remarketing tool so at the most basic it’s good for advertising subs you may be interested in, at its worst it’s used by MBAs to justify destroying a platform to sell products to people with the guise of the information coming from fellow users, but is instead coming from bots and corporate accounts using your data to sell you products worse than the ones you wanted in the first place, eliminating the trusted environment to at Reddit once claimed to be all the while showing you subreddits you have absolutely no interest in.

Makes sense to me!

As a city Texan who lives in one of the most military-friendly and full cities in the state, I say I’d like to see you try greggy.

Oh yeah, the apartheid emerald mining is never out of my mind when I think of this asshat.

“No, of course it’s a joke about them sleeping on the floor. We will provide Tesla-branded housing onsite, and with the added convenience of the Tesla store and the workers being paid in Teslabux to pay me back for the room and board, they’ll always be ready to do my bidding.”

They do a hologram of Lenin next to Stalin, and the whole bit is how pissed Stalin is about them letting Stalin take over when he died after expressly telling them not to let that happen.

It’s a very awkward stage show.

As a QM myself, you learn so much by going down rabbit holes and the more you play the more you pick up on the nuances and hints in how questions are written.

But cheaters? Oh, sorry your scores are zeroed out. Maybe if you sit at the table right in front with your phones put away I wouldn’t have done that.

“What should we do? Just PAY the developer for the feature? Nah, we’ll just continue to file lawsuits and eventually settle in the inevitable class action from buyers which will certainly not be more than what we would have spent just licensing it in the first place”

Look, I’m not one for patent trolling, but this is pretty blatant on Apple’s end and as a Series 9 owner it’s annoying because it’s a feature I upgraded for that I’ll lose access to just because they don’t want to be told they’re wrong. Such corporate bullshit.
