  • My mother used to be like this with steak. She would ask for it well done, and after the waiter wrote that down, she'd follow up with a comparison to a hockey puck. Like really just fuck this thing up sideways, it should be charcoal. The looks we got from most waiters were hilarious.

    Meanwhile my dad would order the rarest steak it was legal to sell him. "Just walk it past the grill on the way out here, I want it still trying to graze on my salad".

    To their credit most places got it close enough that we could eat without complaint.

  • Signal also does jack all unless both parties are using Signal. In this case, might be fine. Need to talk to anyone else in your life? It's back to iMessage.

    I love Signal and will probably never get rid of it but the use case for it has shrunk tremendously since they removed the ability to message non-signal users.

  • Yes it does, when the war you're opposing is one intended to bring consequences to a dictator. Unopposed dictators continue to dictate and empower other dictators. You don't stop a bully by turning the other cheek. That just gets you punched in both sides of the face. You stop a bully by bringing them consequences to their actions. When there are no consequences, the actions continue.

    If you'd like to read more about this, please check into the entirety of human history.

  • Brought to us by the same people that claimed Russia was fighting with WWII shovels, end of war is near, sanctions will kill the Russian economy, etc.

    Hence why they're now pressing students and immigrants into emergency armed service. Because they're getting their asses beat. This all checks out. A stable country with a well functioning modern military doesn't extend a 3 day operation into 3 years, lose half a million troops, and then press-gang their students into the draft. These are signs of failure.

  • If that was his plan he should have sent them in first before he lost 470,000 registered soldiers. This is a desperation move, and if not that, then it is one of absolutely colossal foolishness. Neither is a good look for Putin.

  • Ah, fair enough, I missed the sarcasm. That's on me.

  • Want to unpack that one for the class?

  • Can't stay rich without people to buy your shit. Genuinely don't understand how they don't realize that. If the middle and lower class dies, so does their income stream. And even besides that, if all that's left are rich folks because everyone else either cooked to death or left the area, being "rich" loses meaning because you're now all on an even economic playing field. In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is a killer metaphor - as in, anyone left with a bigger cash stash than you becomes the de facto upper class and you do not.

  • That's when I purposely sit at the light for an extra 5 seconds before moving. Am I an asshole? Maybe.

  • Not with that attitude it isn't

  • 95% of their customers are businesses, who no, they don't understand that. But their IT department does.

  • Only a true AdMech would consider his backup file to be an STC. I'm laughing, but also, respect. Praise the Omnissiah.

  • "Realistic goals" at this point have simply become to move away from America until it goes the way of the Roman Empire, then come back to rebuild the ashes.

  • You realize the office of the US President is involved in important things in the world

    Such as maintaining the safety and full functioning of the United States of America? Yes, you're completely correct. That's exactly why this needs to happen.

  • Oh don't worry, I'm absolutely certain it will return with a new host. Just because Jones isn't allowed on it anymore doesn't mean they have to throw out the entire propaganda outlet. Like you said, it's too valuable, and him making money by liquidating/selling it means that someone, somewhere, is buying it.

  • If every time someone is born, they die, then wouldn't that mean that life is inherently worthless?

  • But those same rich fucks will shit a cinderblock if you try to have a second job and aren't focusing 130% of your life energy into their job.

  • I believe wholeheartedly that we'll have all our shit straightened out in about 3 generations or so, or at least we will have new problems different than our current ones. Assuming we survive the climate catastrophe that is.

    But the next 100-200 years are about to be real fucking bad for a lot of people.

  • Which you clearly know, because you're a 17 year old girl, right? If not, please do explain in detail how you know so much about the sexual habits of teenage girls. Go on, we're listening.
