Did I say any of the things you listed were ok either? Its not "bottle rockets". Innocent people lost their lives.

You're lucky you're priveleged enough to be able to maintain such a heartless worldview. I hope nothing so awful ever happens to you or those you love.

And yes, I do know where Mecca is. Its in Saudi Arabia next to the Red Sea. If you want to fight strawmen, then turn off the computer and go outside.

Does that make it ok? Answer: no. It doesn't.

Nice pelvic bowl. Deep.

I never ever tip if I'm picking up the food myself. No service is being rendered.

I also pretty much never get takeout anymore because the grossness of being asked for a tip ruins the experience.

A good reminder to go back and edit all your comments to [removed] if you didn't do so when you first left.

Its a negative feedback loop. Journalism revenue dropped when the internet became popular, so news companies sqeezed their remaining paid customers even harder (more ads, higher subscriptions, more anti-consumer tactics). As a result, even more people dropped off and the news companies once again responded by making things worse.

Similar to streaming vs. piracy (people were glad to pay for Netflix when it was GOOD), I still believe the root of the issue lies primarily with the service being offered.

I'd like to pay for more news, but I know the second I get a subscription I'm going to get junk mail and harassment from that company for the rest of my life to upgrade what I'm already paying or resubscribe. As a result, I only donate to small outlets that treat their readers well.

Who do you think programs it?

I don't eat out at resturants ever - and guess what! When that happens, they bitch and moan about my not supporting local businesses, and steal millions in PPP loans!

There might be others, but The Dagger of Xian plotline in Tomb Raider II is a little "woo woo Chinese mysticism". You plunge it into your heart and turn into a dragon.

I'm not offended by it but I'd imagine that's not the kind of thing you'd write in a video game today.

Its Missouri, so...

The three known instances of censorship collusion that happened at that time concern the Canadian authorities asking Facebook to “remove users’ posts for ‘disinformation about lifting a COVID restriction’,” RebelNews now writes.

All you need to know. Fuck off with the right wing rage bait.

I love dipping grilled cheese in coarse spicy mustard.

NYC is such a corrupt place. You feel it in every facet of life when you live there. The average NYC resident has a long commute with regular delays while the MTA eats billions of tax dollars per year. Renters get gouged by slumlord landlords and pay a 15% real estate broker fee for the privelege. The NYPD spends $121 mil in taxpayer dollars per year to operate lawlessly while solving fewer crimes and locking up anyone who tries to call them out for it.

I enjoy imagining what I would do if money were no object. But agreed, I find what others actually do to be profoundly boring.

Yeah. This isn't funny. Its just shitty, annoying behavior.

It looks more like Cotton to me.

I read the trilogy and the sequels. The sequels definitely aren't as intricate and political as the trilogy. But if you like just getting lost in Asimov's ideas and tropes they're perfectly good books.

Nuance? On the internet? Get the fuck out of here.

Erdoğan happened.
