Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.

  • "Did you find any kidnapping victims in my suit pockets?"

    Omg that was hilarious. My wife had been texting me all day about the trial but i'd not realized how good the songs were. And the footage of cops stealing rolls of cash is just perfect.

  • Or I could pretend to be from Taiwan... most people probably can't tell anyways, its just the same Mandarin to them

    If you say you're from taiwan, i think many people will say, "oh i love thai food!" 😆

  • only apply to TCM products that are injected intramuscularly or intravenously, not to the remedies widely taken by mouth

    The potential harm from injections seems like a good reason to tackle them. I suspect wider TCM has too much support to be worth taking on.

    In fairness, TCM has produced a nobel prize winning medicine, so forcing more legit research on it could produce some interesting results - in addition to dispelling a lot of potentially harmful nonsense.

  • When i worked in a mall there were no staff bathrooms.

    I came to refer to the sound of nearby-diarrhea as "ringng the taco bells".

  • Right after he won best supporting actor as well.

  • Such a great line! Right up there with "Zaphod's just this guy, you know?" And the bit about the marketing division of the sirius cybernetics corp being the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

  • Revelations is not a prophecy about today and cannot describe anything contemporary to us. It was a political allegory about what was going on at the time of it's writing.

    March/April, looks-like when the Middle-East goes kablooey ... 2 mutually-exclusive "humankind"s occupying the same planet, & the global-deathmatch begins

    When none of this happens i hope you will abandon these ideas and not trying to modify them.

  • I'm pretty sure that's Eccentrica Gallumbits, the triple breasted whore of eroticon 6.

  • Personally i'm hoping for good news from the hungarian election and the end of orban.

    And of course like every being capable of moral reasoning, i can't wait to see steven miller in a prison he built, locked in a 10 person cell with 1 toilet and 100 other nazis. Happy days! 😊

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Happy Ides of March Lemmy! Who do you most hope gets "et tu"-ed?

  • Whoever thought of this one must have been so proud of themselves. It's impossible not to read it in his voice. That line is very rodney dangerfield.

  • The Justice Department called the violence an attack plotted by antifa operatives but attorneys for the accused denied that characterization, saying there were no antifa associations and that it was merely a demonstration with fireworks before gunshots broke out.

    The regime lied about what happened, lied about the protesters having any links to antifa groups and grossly misapplied terrorism charges.

    But even if it had been exactly what the regime falsely claims it was, it's undeniable that attacking the guards at a concentration camp deserves a medal of valor.

  • I personally find marvel movies boring, and a misuse of wealth, but marvel films aren't boring in the same way that cars going around in a circle is boring, and they're not gruesome in the way that eagerly waiting to see real people injured is gruesome.

  • Some people won't eat tongue because their culture doesn't eat tongue and when asked they come up with reasons.

    "We just don't, it's a cultural thing" is so often the correct explanation, but our brains usually spin up reasons that are tidy, "just so" or satisfying even if completely off base.

  • See i was gonna say good because all motorsports are boring and gruesome displays of misused wealth.

  • One of the gems of the latter simpsons episodes is grandpa mocking the complaints of an iraq war vet "It was too hot, the USO show was rob schneider, US objectives were and remain incomprehensible."

    The same will apply here, except the uso show will be kid rock.

  • Also israel's foreign policy objectives.

  • I got in trouble at work because I answered the official osha self-walkthrough report question "Was any horseplay observed?" by writing "Only light shinenangans that did not rise to the level of horseplay"

  • A lot of what ai is good at is very useful for automating massive state surveillance programs. AI could monitor live audio and video communication for problem phrases, for example.

    Making authoritarian rule easier and cheaper is a very valuable capability to elites, though detrimantal to the world.

    I think the main effect of ai will be continuing this deadly trend of power consolidation that we've seen since maybe the mesolithic. The power of information will be conslidated in fewer and fewer ai-oligarchs, allowing ever more intrusive states to control more people more precisely.

  • Political Memes @lemmy.world

    Must be nice to have your name in the dictionary
