We've been making this argument for the last 3+ years, my dude.

No one who is saying all of this now was silent the last few years. I've personally been donating to, campaigning for, and bolstering the messaging of non-Mainstream-Dem candidates since I became disillusioned with Obama in my mid 20s. It's not our fault y'all have been fucking ignoring us.

That shit is delicious. Every time we went to some kind of space-related museum growing up I would bug the shit out of my parents until they got some for me. I felt so freaking cool eating it.

I mean, how about my boring example from work the other day? I wanted to double check whether priority mail had guaranteed delivery timeframes before telling a customer that they did not and if she needed something by a specific day she should use UPS. When I searched "is priority mail delivery date guaranteed", the first real answer, from USPS's website, was a resounding no, just like I thought. Guess what Google's AI told me? "Priority mail is a guaranteed service, so you can choose it knowing that your package will be delivered on the projected date."

It's fucking stupid. It's wrong. It should not be at the top of search results.

Dude is literally a science-denying antivaxxer who had actual brain worms. If anyone is braindead it's RFK.

Exactly. Intelligence is knowing what the right words are. Wisdom is knowing what words to use to get your point across to people who aren't as intelligent as you.

Nope. Plenty of places in the midwest only carry unsweet and "flavored", not regular sweet tea. The flavor is usually extra sweet fruit flavored syrup like raspberry or peach.

"Walking and mobility aid devices only", perhaps?

Fucking lol

Chud

Just admit you hate science and want to live in a fantasy world where reality agrees with you 🤷🏻‍♀️

Buddy that's like saying you won't listen to physicists about gravity because they're biased

Researching and reporting on scientific realities isn't bias

It's stating the truth

Fucking lol

The doctors who research this stuff for a living are biased

Science is biased

Reality is biased

You're a regressive who hates that reality disagrees with you and would prefer to live in a fantasy world of your own making

Nah, Chappelle is trash too

Barefoot shoes for life! I have switched entirely to barefoot shoes - or at least, foot-shaped and zero drop, even if the sole is thicker - and my feet have never been happier.

Some of my favorite brands:

LEMS - good hiking shoes. Nice wide toe box, decently lightweight, don't look too goofy.

Peerko - good all-around. Lots of looks, some casual, some nicer. Definitely avoiding the crunchy outdoor hobo and/or silly clown shoes look.

Designed by Anya - Anya was a barefoot enthusiast who eventually made her own line, with loafers and boots. Cute and comfy femme barefoot shoes.

Vivobarefoot - used to be a little on the crunchy outdoor hobo side, but some of their more recent looks have stepped up their game nicely. I really like their loafers.

It's because we have brains and can read further than the headline 🤷🏻‍♀️

I think it's a joke about manatees having evolved from the same land-based ancestor as elephants, making them pretty literally "sea elephants".

Fun fact, you can feel it when you're uncut too. At least, my spouse has never not been able to warn me over 14 years together, so, that doesn't seem like a good reason to mutilate kids' dicks.

Regarding difficulty - on lower difficulties it'll take longer to earn up the medals (though the major order rewards definitely help there) but I actually think it's faster to farm super credits on the easiest 3 difficulties.

My mom was into True Blood for a little bit when it first came out, probably because she was trying to fill a Buffy-shaped hole in her entertainment and TB was close enough, lol. She bought me the first novel for Christmas one year and I very quickly donated it, it was so fucking bad. She asked me if she could borrow it, got mad when I told her I'd donated it already, and then sad when I told her it would ruin her enjoyment of the show by being complete and utter trash xD

Weed card, it's what I need! Hardly ever - okay, always. But it's not an addiction, cause myyyy doctor gave meeeee, a prescription!

-Weed Card, Garfunkel and Oates

Opposite - one of the girls got swapped into the professor's body and couldn't use his hands because she didn't know how fingers worked.

I mean, there's support and then there's enabling. Not all things that ND people do are good, either for them or those around them. We as a community don't act like it's ok for Autistic people to go around grabbing women's tits "cause they don't understand social conventions" (though I've absolutely come across this argument before, which infuriated me), why would we act like it's ok for NPD people to manipulate and emotionally abuse those around them "cause it's just the way they are"? The goal is to support them in a way that limits harm: both the harm that comes to them from outside, and the harm they can do to others.
