There's a bit in one of the Expanse novels where one of the main characters is remembering a dog he'd lost as an adolescent. The dog laid down and one of his parents explained what was happening. He vowed to remain at it's side until it's last breath, but after three hours he was just bored.

That bit always stuck with me.

You don't know how to use the three shells, admit it

If internet companies want to make an argument like that, then internet should be treated as a utility.

Years ago I left a shitty call center job and left a scathing review on glassdoor. About a year later I started getting hammered with requests for clarification or to remove the review entirely. I ignored them all, and never bothered to look back. It's still up, but the company I worked for sold itself to some other shitty overlord that also had terrible employer reviews.

Guys guys relax

Taco Bell and Pizza Hut are both owned by the same corporate conglomerate that owns Pepsi, KFC, and every other fast food chain that only serves Pepsi.

Because if you drill through the side wall you'll sever some of the steel reinforcement cables and render it irreparable. Drill through the treads and you might be able to plug it back up

Man. If 8 year old me had known that "political lightning rod" was a job my trajectory would have been VERY different

Gotta rework it so there's no negative words. "Learned valuable lessons about selective acceptance."

That's absolutely insane. Never drill a hole through your tire treads.

Always drill through the side wall. Much more efficient.

I want the thumbnail of Vance looking pathetic to be the thumbnail every time an article is paywalled

You may have an insulin issue. Or a gluten issue.

I also can't eat that many carbs in a day.

HI JUST JOSHIN I'M WOGI

If two parties are at odds with one another, and one on them is willing to use violence and the other isn't, the violent party wins.

Non violence works when people care about what you're going through. If the right people know and care they'll come in and do violence for you to make it stop. Or at least verifiably threaten violence. But violence is happening whether you did it or not.

Nazis don't give a shit about you, they're eager for violence. They want to exterminate entire classes of people. Non violence does not work on Nazis, we've already seen this play out once before.

Be the change you want to see in the world

Whyv would he care? He sure doesn't fuckin pay them.
