I don't need an article reporting on something that might happen, I'll just wait for the one reporting on the thing once it's happened. That's where the juicy info will be.

Who cares, fuck Bannon. People worth listening to say it too, let's talk about them and not give Bannon attention.

As soon as Musk bought it I reactivated my long-dormant account so that I could delete it properly, I can't understand why so many people are using X.

You're all patrons of the nazi bar, only in this case the nazis bought the bar. Twitter is dead. Migrate to somewhere else like you probably have multiple times before if you've been on the Internet for any amount of time.

What's the point? If you're not enjoying your life and you think everyone else should be doing this too so it's not like your "sacrifice" is so that they can enjoy life, then what are you working for?

I live on the opposite side of the world and even I remember when Obama wore a fucking tan suit once more than 10 years ago because Republicans threw such a big tantrum over it.

We were still talking about Obama’s birth certificate years after inauguration.

Was Trump himself not one of the biggest pushers of that bullshit? I seem to remember him using it as part of his campaign when he wasn't even running against Obama.

The silliness isn't what convinced me they were different people, it was the fact that Dittman could string a sentence together whereas every time I've heard Elon without a script (which really isn't often, probably never outside of KF) there have been so many ums and ahs that communicating a single point would take a lifetime. Maybe having less pressure on him as Dittman helps.

I've got 2 of everything just in case. Dirty dishes can't pile up if they don't exist.

I used to play a lot of Fallout 4 with gyro aiming on the Steam Controller, there was a lot of downtime between fights and gunplay didn't require perfect precision, which was great for learning how the controller felt. I'd find that I'd sit back with my hands on my lap, tilting the controller very slightly up and down for vertical aim and unconsciously using my foot to rotate the chair for horizontal. Once I got used to how it worked (including setting the gyro to only activate while the left trigger was held and fine-tuning the sensitivity) it became natural. My body just kind of figured it all out in the most comfortable way.

Jones hasn't crawled under any rocks, he's been going strong even with a billion dollar judgement against him and filing for bankruptcy. Infowars is being auctioned off in a week so it might be bought by someone who will just keep him exactly where he is, but he's been openly setting up a backup business and directing people to it, which he's said ON AIR he'll just fold into the existing business if all goes well. His dad has a completely independent supplement company and he's got completely unaffiliated mates selling his merch.

The only reason he's less prominent now is because the politicians and the mainstream media in the US are so fucking unhinged that he's struggling to stay relevant in his niche.

On work days I always get a good 7-8 hours, but if I'm not working I very rarely manage more than 3-4, it's as if my brain feels like it's wasting the day. I'm one of those people who can operate comfortably on very little sleep. I use a sleep cycle alarm that is supposed to wake me when it senses I'm only sleeping lightly or something, no idea if any of that stuff's real/helpful but it can't hurt. I also maintain a healthy weight (I used to be overweight) which keeps pressure off my neck and reduces snoring & breathing interruptions, that definitely helps with feeling rested.

Once in a blue moon my body decides to sleep about 9 hours longer than planned to catch up on missed sleep, but I either rarely feel particularly tired or I've been doing this long enough that I don't remember what being properly awake felt like 🤷‍♂️

You did it, you saved Palestine. Bravo!

He knows it and he did it intentionally, but the people laughing at him are his imagination. He's projected these thoughts onto them because he feels self-conscious, nobody said a word to him. It's just as likely the woman was laughing because she's on the phone, or the man was smirking at something on a podcast he's got playing.

Edit: Will you people stop telling me you laugh at Cybertrucks. I don't care, that's not the point.

I realized she was laughing derisively. She was like, “What kind of person would drive something like that?” Or, “That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen.”

Granted, she could have been having a weird reaction to a stroke or something, but I’m pretty sure I saw what I saw. Then today, I was at a four-way stop, and a guy in a Nissan Titan/Toyota Tundra or something smiled and then chuckled like: “What a tool.” Or, who would drive something like that?”

Mate, these thoughts are in your head. My partner has bouts of anxiety where she assumes people are always thinking the worst of her, so I'm hesitant to make fun of the dude because I've seen what it can do to someone, but he's clearly bought a dumbass car to get attention and now he's feeling insecure about it. It's sad.

I finally managed to get into Breath of the Wild the other night after getting it on launch day and never enjoying it. I played 9 hours solid, then had to go to work for a few days, so I'm looking forward to going home more than usual.

Other than that, there's the seemingly endless hunt for my last 3 Monster Hunter World achievements (only ~480 hours in, so I'm doing ok). Also, I've finally got around to trying Suicide Squad, and I kinda dig it so far. Just gotta clear my plate a bit for the PC release of FF16 in a few weeks, but I can almost guarantee I'll be too stuck into either Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom to play it.

Exactly. I'm there to lose myself in the crowd and to feel the music. Being right up near the amps makes me feel alive. Every bass drum beat feels like it's kicking you in the chest, every time the pyros go off you feel the heat on your face, mosh pits open up spontaneously around you, it's some of the most fun I've ever had. If I just want to listen to the band I'll stay home and put an album on, save myself a hundred bucks.

We'll end up with a live action The Muppet Movie remake only starring humans.

"I do shoot myself in the foot from time to time, but at least you know it is genuine, not from the PR department," he admitted.

Well, at least the advertisers know he meant it when he literally told them to go fuck themselves. That'll help, I think.

Do you listen to the Weekly Planet by any chance? I've never seen this before, then they mentioned it in the latest ep a few days ago and now it's popped up.

There are definitely times when it seems like he's had a hit of something during commercial breaks. He's often drunk on air (and drinks during the show) so it's certainly possible.

Edit: I just listened, he's drunk on air during this episode. And the headline is a quote from Steve Bannon, bit misleading.
