  • Similar to my ex-wife who grew up on well water with loads of minerals. She found tap water to be disgusting and said it tasted of chemicals. And everywhere I've lived in America, the tap water is indeed loaded with chemicals.

    For anyone wanting a cool experiment to try: Turn your tap water on full blast and fill a cup. Immediately hover your nose directly above the water and take a deep smell. Now set that glass in the sun for an hour or three, or just leave it on the counter for a day, smell again.

    For a longer term experiment: Water identical plants with a) only tap water, b) only rainwater. I catch rainwater and have found a profound improvement in my house plants and terrariums.

  • That makes zero sense on the face of it. Why the hell would a murderer call in witnesses?!

    Anyway, like conspiracy theories, the best coverups are in plain sight. But I bet we get some good ones in response to this!

  • Fucking weird, isn't it? Another rant would be about where is all the advertising money coming from?! Imagining being a buyer, I'd have to wonder how well my spend would be profiting.

    A couple of decades ago I played around with being a salesman. Top advice was to try this ad, try that ad, compare results. Surely these people are finding revenue from spending on these ads? It just seems impossible to me that there's profit for all of these cockroaches.

  • I feel like you weren't there, in that time and place. Or maybe you were in some weird pocket where OTA wasn't available? Can't remember anyone bitching about lack of antennae service. Yeah, it could be sketchy, but I think most of us could drag in ABC, NBC, CBS and PBS.

  • I'm old, so many may not relate. I remember when the big selling point of this newfangled "cable TV" thing was zero ads. Can you imagine that?

    Yeah, I have Prime for the savings on shipping. Got the Kodi addon for watching Prime, never used it except to watch The Expanse a few years ago. Would have been fucking enraged if I had seen ads cut into that. Fuck am I paying for?!

  • People always frame this shit as, "What ya gonna do against tanks and drones?!" Not a goddamned thing. But let's just say the military infrastructure would collapse in weeks without civilian help.

    I could go on all night, but there was an excellent post on /r/liberalgunowners that outlined dozens of ways to fight the military on the streets. Much of it was, "Those tanks and drones don't drive or maintain themselves."

  • federal employees writing essays of loyalty and praise

    I'll be the devil's advocate here. They only need write on what they will do to move his agenda(s) forward. It's not the dick sucking thing it's been made out to be, but it's still too fucking close for comfort.
