“Activists”. pfff.

Perhaps an unpopular take, but more teams is absolutely not what we need right now. It’s ludicrous to think that Andretti could just waltz in and be competitive. And what exactly would another bottom-feeder team add to the enjoyment of the sport? Or even a midfield one? We have plenty of both.

Yyyyeah, fuck that, will forever be filtering flights to avoid the late-stage capitalist death trap.

B&H in New York has some pretty good inventory, usually. I’ve bought a lot of stuff from them through the years.

KitKat is Nestle. Fuck that, never give those cunts any of your hard earned money.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it as many times as I need to. I’ve lived in “3rd world countries”, and I’ve lived in Texas. Texas is worse.

Off the seven seas? Try Britbox. Relatively affordable, no ads whatsoever. They’ve got Cats does Countdown, QI, Mock the Week etc.

Britbox has all the series since the start, when Stephen Fry was presenting.

Thank you for your hard work! 🫡

You know what REALLY bugs me about the NYPD? Whenever there’s any big event like the NYE you just mentioned, they always put those fucking metal barriers up EVERYWHERE. Some places I get, you have to separate say a parade route from the stands, fine. But they close off random bits of sidewalk, or funnel everyone through a tiny opening, so there’s always huge clumps of humanity. Last year in Brooklyn, for July 4th, they made a fucking maze of barriers and they let too many people in so it was jam packed, you couldn’t move in any direction. People were getting crushed against the barriers and couldn’t get out, we were all screaming at them to move the fucking barriers and they just stood there, hands on their guns, like the cowardly assholes they are.

So fucking dangerous, it’s by sheer dumb luck that no one died there (afaik).

And all of it is completely pointless. I was just in Toronto for the NYE fireworks. No cops, no barriers, tons of people, and it was completely fine.

Guess they need to spend all that extra budget they got from defunding the library on something. Might as well be barriers and big SUVs, ey? Fuckers.

In any group, there’s always that one obnoxious bro, isn’t there?

Wish I could upvote this 10000x

This is sage advice. Over the years I’ve come to realise that even a mediocre local roaster is always much, much better than anything from Starcunts or any of the other shitty retail beans.

Ah, American defaultism strikes again!

Wut?

Good. Get fucked.

That’s a useful thing to know, thanks!
