  • Afghanistan: Taliban burn musical instruments

  • I really wonder if people like this have a playbook, like have they read history and put together a step by step guide at this point for maximizing assholery, or does behavior like this sort of emerge naturally as the assholes take control? Like why do we see this over and over in authoritarian regimes, is it natural or are they copycats?

    Sidebar: today I learned the word assholery is a real word, I thought I just made it up lol

  • Have kids if you want. It's just insane to me to plan your entire life and make major decisions on a cataclysm that may or may not even occur in your lifetime; and it (climate change) may present in ways that we can't even imagine now.

    Edit, fine, fuck me, it's raining fire and brimstone out there, billions of people are dying in the streets, the horsemen of the apocalypse are here, it's game over for the human species, my bad. Nobody have kids, it's over, might as well just shoot yourself right now.

  • My advice is to live your life as best as you can without worrying too much about things you can't control. Try and build a life around yourself that'll help you be happy through it all, regardless of what happens. Enjoy your 20's. 30's are good too and 40's don't suck either.

    To paraphrase Sun Tzu: do not choose a path to victory. Instead, choose a strategy such that all paths lead to victory.

  • Hollywood Shuts Down After 160,000 Actors Walk Off the Set

    Jump

  • I've barely even noticed this writers strike because I've hardly even bothered to watch any new Hollywood movies or TV shows in literally years. Everything I have seen recently has been complete garbage. So I find myself watching older shows again and again, more YouTube content, educational and history stuff like that...heck, I've been following some modern film critics like Red Letter Media and just watch their commentary vs the real thing, and it's usually much more entertaining.

    I think Hollywood is going to use this opportunity to replace the writers with AI. If it works great, if it doesn't work, nobody will notice or care.

  • Is having an Android really a deal-breaker for some people?

    Jump

  • I'm not sure if it is possible for me to care less what type of phone somebody uses.

    If I found out somebody was judging me based on my phone I would seriously consider breaking up with them.

    I'm surprised and dismayed we are even having this conversation, and some of the other replies are deeply troubling.

  • Reddit moment!

  • I'm so sick and tired of every single website and service trying to push an app on me. No, I don't want to download your stupid shitty app, I've got dozens and I don't want another one that I don't use that interrupts me to push stupid notifications. Now get off my lawn!
