  • wow what a piece of shit. mindlessly pandering to a group of genociders in the midst of a genocide. Is genocider right? What would you call an isreali who's actively trying to wipe out an entire race of people? genocidist? a kapo?

    anyway, it's long past time that motherfucker left in disgrace

  • Your friends are still acting like everything is normal in America. What do you do? All Americans live in a “dual state.” Here’s what that means — and how to help others see it.

  • We know how to stop it, but we'll probably end up dead or imprisoned forever for it so... The revolution will only happen when a lot of people of nothing left to lose.

  • Guys, please, if you're not shooting at the secret police, then you shouldn't be shooting. C'mon, man.

  • Trump wants to build 250ft Washington DC arch that dwarfs Lincoln Memorial – report

    Jump

  • See this irks me, because if I was in charge, I'd want to spur the economy by building giant cool shit too. Course, I'm thinking more like the Colossus of Rhodes, or those two giant mountain king statues from LOTR (Argonath). But anything that could be seen as a monument to this absolute vile traitor, is too much. After he's imprisoned and dies his pathetic lil death, that name should be stripped from all records, buildings, everything. His name, forever synonymous with a repulsive pathetic evil clown.

  • The monkeys realize they can power contraptions using the heat from combustion. After widespread adoption, they find out that the result of this process is slowly destroying their home at an increasing rate. The monkeys ignore the destruction, because the monkeys have created a system that replaces work with a token, and monkeys hoarding tokens having seized control of the central monkey systems, stopping any other monkeys from addressing the destruction of their home.

    The Monkeys with the most, are also the most afraid, because they fear no longer having tokens, and of being treated like they treat token-less monkeys. So the hoarding monkeys cheat and lie and steal until they're so powerful that even committing terrible crimes doesn't get them in trouble with other monkeys, so afraid monkeys are of those with the most tokens.

    So quietly, and without notice, the day comes and passes, when if they were going to stop the destruction, if they were going to save their world, they would have had to have acted on that day.... but they didn't. Because the token-having monkeys made sure that no other monkeys were allowed to stop them. And so they continued destroying their only home, until it was too late, and they all ended up dying of starvation, thirst, and exhaustion, while the planet they were on went about it's day, hoping that a newer, more intelligent kind of life would emerge.

  • Games you really want to play, but can't or won't?

    Jump

  • I'm addicted to DOTA 2, but I sometimes will play other single player games. I bought and downloaded Witcher 3, Cyberpunk and RDR2, but I can't get into them. If I'm not playing with other people, it just seems kinda... lonely? I like games where I can log on and chat/communicate with other players. I'm alone enough in my real life, so anytime I can spend with even just virtual friends is something I value.

    I dunno, I started the cyberpunk game, was going the street kid route, and the guy it puts you with... The guy put a gun to you, and all of a sudden we're friends? No. I'm from a shitty family and that shit gave me mad anxiety. I got into the tutorial level, stopped to do something else, came back, and every time i try to load the game back up to play, it crashes.

    So yeah, back to DOTA 2

  • Billionaire Ehud Laniado dies during penis enlargement surgery, surgeons banned

    Jump

  • An autopsy later confirmed that Laniado died from cardiac hypertrophy, a condition involving an enlarged heart.

    A search of his hotel room revealed he had been taking multiple substances banned in France, along with vasodilators commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction. According to judicial sources, these substances are believed to have contributed to his death.

    Ah, so it had nothing to do with the procedure, dude was on a cocktail of his own drugs, didn't tell the doctor, had a heart attack.

    So, if it was anyones fault, it was the pathetic billionaires fault. Also anyone who gets rich from diamonds is always, 100%, a scumbag.

  • Understandable fear of anger

    Jump

  • oh yeah. Those lovely days when I could hear the door, along with every cabinet and drawer, being slammed shut. I could feel the anger from rooms away. Waking up to it is worse. Getting hit was better, because it didn't take as long, and I wasn't tasked with calming them down just so I could exist in a place without all that fucking anger and tension.

  • What skills did almost everybody have 50 years ago, but few people have today?

  • Sometimes I'll be getting myself ready to do the thing, but if someone reaches out and gives me an out... Yeah I might just take them up on it. I'm big on canceling plans

  • You know, if I was the head of a multinational organization that's infamous for poisoning children, stealing water, and bribing officials... I'd be worried about my personal safety.

    Ya know evil people, committing evil actions, count on good people doing nothing.

  • How small does a broken potato chip have to be before you consider it a crumb?

    Jump

  • yup, I'd go further and say that if it's the same size as your thumbnail, it's still a chip. Any smaller and it becomes crumb. Big crumb, but crumb.

  • What is the optimal handle to chain length for a flail?

    Jump

  • Nah just have the chain length short enough that it can't swing back and whack your hand. That's pretty much it.
