  • Fun fact I learned recently: The band The Presidents of the United States of America did a collab with Sir Mix-A-Lot under the name Subset

  • Even if I felt lonely, none of those things are how I would start talking to anyone.

    When I'm in public I wish to be left alone. It would be a violation of the Golden Rule for me to start talking to randos about their outfits or the weather.

  • Or go to a bar and say hi to people who are hanging around. Compliment someone’s jacket. Tell someone that their whole aesthetic is cool as fuck. Comment on the weather. Become a part of your local environment and interact with your fellow humans. Join a hiking or hobby group.

    Nah, I'm good thanks

  • Yeah. The small town I used to live in had trolley service to the nearest city about 20 miles away before they tore it up for a highway.

    I solve this problem by rarely leaving my home.

  • But it’s also become less necessary as we have much improved telecommunications. I regularly work with people halfway around the world from my house.

  • Imagine how much pressure that jet pilot was under. The guy who literally invented flying is your passenger

  • more necessary

    I haven’t had a commute in over a decade

  • It’s just the future sucks

  • That’s not terrorism. That song is a bop.

    It’s the national anthem of the Internet.

  • If I wanted to hypothetically perform a terrorist attack I’d bring an explosive device into a TSA security checkpoint line on a busy travel day.

    Hypothetically.

  • It can do bread and the best tasting broccoli and Brussels sprouts you’ve ever had

  • Nah, I’ve got a Bluetooth thermometer so I can track it while I play video games

  • Not scaling could be a feature and not a bug. It would raise the price of beef and thus lower demand.

  • And not good ones like Australian cunts

  • I have a Traeger and saved $200 because it was the model without WiFi.

    I made a delicious turkey breast on Independence Day

  • I just post while I’m waiting for a command to finish running.

    It’s not my fault the deploy takes 20 minutes.

  • The idea that we have to grow food for food is ridiculous. Cows turn grass into meat just fine, why do we need to grow corn and soybeans for them

    I bet it’s because, like with hogs, we’ve bred them to be so growth optimized they can’t get enough calories from grass anymore.

  • These aren’t too different from the novels we’d get at the Scholastic Book Fair. Captain Underpants definitely comes to mind.

    They gave my kids a stepping stone from short children’s books to chapter books so it’s not all bad.
