I'm here for horror, minis, games, geek crap, books, political shit stirring on behalf of the left and finding new interests. If you share cool mushroom pictures I *will* follow you at lightning speed. Nature kicks ass!

Weather prediction is too close to witchcraft. First comes accurate forecasting of hurricanes and then it's loose women riding broomsticks, withering crops and god-fearing men can't get it up anymore unless they cuck for Lucifer.
Whip that mofo
The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement. The President does not run the Smithsonian. The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law. Release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Every presidential candidate in the past fifty years but Trump knows how government is supposed to work. That's a very low bar and a comedian w/ no political experience except "both sides are bad" is not the way to go.
God no. Maybe someone who is qualified to be president instead of a comedian talk show host w/ good sound bites? Reagan was an actor and Trump was primarily a tv personality & media attention whore. Can we not drink from the same tainted well as the Republicans?
We could fund NASA with the proceeds of that fight.
We have those here, too. It's not the road deaths I am bringing up, it's that you have more cops patrolling and still more automobile related deaths and more police violence. Traffic patrols may not be as necessary as you think.
I listened regularly the first 2 years, then tapered off Their shit takes for 2020 made me stop. Downloaded a few eps after the last election & their even shittier takes after Mangione drove me right back away. Fucking milquetoast bros more worried about protecting their ad deals than society.
I question how much of it is a must. After moving to Canada I saw way fewer cops doing traffic work. It's a rarity to see a speed trap, but when I travel back home I see 2 to 3, minimum, in a 3 hour part of the road trip. But we have half as many deaths per 100k people on our roads.
If only the police were actually good at that part: www.npr.org/2023/04/29/1... They'd rather terrorize black people than do the hard work of catching murderers.
.... Doxxed MLK Jr? Uh.
I don't know what it is about that chocolate bar, but every time I see it I think cheap, discount, bottom shelf dollar store knock off chocolate. First time I saw it I didn't know that it was his chocolate and thought it was some kids show tie in as a desperate merchandising cash grab.
I think it's horrible. BUT, if it's a pilot who wants to start doing charter flights then it almost makes sense. Win the jet and set up your own business. What doesn't make sense is how he'll cover the up front fees for insurance, where to store the jet, and the taxes he'll pay for winning it.
next Canadian government should think of boosting research funding up here and trying to grab as many American postdocs and researchers as possible
Be careful what you wish for. Haven't Rs been trying to privatize Social Security for years? Imagine having your last social safety net for old age wiped out by a recession. Don't fall for this meme, even as a joke. Agitate to protect Social Security, don't joke about self-investing.
A movie recommendation a day: Not as hard-hitting as the subject deserves but certainly timely.🙁 Bryan Cranston is exceedingly watchable in anything and that includes this film. A good jumping off point for anyone who doesn’t know much about the blacklisting. Amazing cast. #moviesky #filmsky #movies
Calling all Canadians! Revoke Elon Musk’s citizenship and passport. We have no room for billionaire Nazis. 🇨🇦 www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
That’s PeePee (Canadian conservative candidate for PM)’s vision We don’t want that #VoteCarney 🍁🇨🇦
Very important video from @daviddoel.bsky.social for Ontario voters to watch! Ontario cannot survive another 5 years of Ford. #Ontario #Canada #OntarioElection #DougFord youtu.be/dlwroJAIbU8?...
It'd be a shame if some stressed out, overworked ATCs made a mistake on one of his flights.
And let's all remember that global per capital for CO2 emissions was 4.7 metric tons in 2023. That's 5 people's worth of CO2 emissions for a year.
Todays hero
I'm sorry, what the actual fuck!? No. Never. Fuck your facist feelings about immigration of any sort, if you advocate killing people based on immigrant status you forfeit your right to have an opinion on the topic, you sociopathic trolling piece of shit.
If it were not for Jim Crow voter suppression tactics, Kamala Harris would have had 3.5 million more votes and would have won the presidency. Trump doesn’t have a mandate, there was no landslide — so what do we do now? Full interview with @jessicadenson07.bsky.social >>> youtu.be/UhzJfiYHXZw
How so? Because I believe consumerism to the point of thinking associating or championing a brand and/or product is not exclusive to America?
We were programing in C in high school, lol. And I did not go to a well of district at all. GenX did not all lack for tech resources.
2 - 80s and early 90s were for boomers, too many fell into the second category & it's on them for not keeping up & not due to being born at a certain time. I've seen the same thing with GenX, Millenials and even GenZ - too many people don't want to learn anything but the minimum & get left behind.
My parents were silent gen, my dad learned programming in college on punch cards. They both kept up with technology after their education ended. If you got left behind it was either due to lack of resources (which sucks) or lack of innate curiosity. Knowing how lucrative the
Finding this reply and being taken to a book I want to find and a new (to me) podcast that looks fascinating made reading all these replies worth the time - thank you for the tip!
3 - the person, their curiosity and willingness to learn anything new instead of what was around when they were 12. Generational stereotypes overall need to be set on fire until nothing is left but ashes. They divide us and distract us from the real problems.
2 - except this time, "that" generation did. And with the tech available to GenX, the learning curve for all our future tech is less drastic. We're in an environment where this arbitrary generation designation doesn't mean shit about your ability to learn and use technology and it's more about...
It is different, but that isn't what this person is talking about. It's about the creeping rewriting of history on a social level to portray GenX the same as Boomers. We cling to the idea that older = bad with tech and we justify it by saying it's because "that" generation didn't grow up w/ it...
That runs parallel to exactly how Musk conducts himself. It's the techbro "move fast, break shit, I'm a disruptor lolz" mentality. Which has no place in a government. Government needs to be stable, if you want to play fast and loose you do it with your own $, not taxpayer $.
Home. Earlier I was in an African Methodist Episcopal church as the congregation sang The Battle Hymn of the Republic. There remains two Americas. One still sings Dixie; the other still sings The Battle Hymn of the Republic. We need many more neighbors to sing The Battle Hymn. It’s our Republic
Why are Apple users always afraid to say they buy it because they like how it looks? That's okay to say.
There's nothing more nonAmerican than mistakenly assuming your nationality has insulated you from the rampant consumerism creating that first statement.
Women couldn’t have BANK ACCOUNTS without a man’s permission until the 1970s. Marital RAPE wasn’t a crime in ALL STATES until 1993. You think the world is EQUAL now? LOOK AROUND. Look at what laws they are enacting NOW. This isn't PROGRESS. This is DESTRUCTIVE REGRESSION.
@pearlmania500.bsky.social - this you?
I get the vibe he'd enjoy that experience too much.
Anyone play Heckna? Are the red hats just a type of schnozzling? #heckna
Nonsense. Girls don't play D&D. The dice excrete a chemical that messes up estrogen. It's a proven scientific fact.
She is the living incarnation of warning flame, yes.

Great. This will be all over Fox News next week. Because you know they never click thru to check anything.
Must be from Contrapoints.
Nancy is the keystone of their group. If you get it to Nancy it *will* go to bingo, church and euchre that week. Nancy is their low tech broadcasting system.
In honor of black inventors. #BlackHistoryMonth
True.
Don't care how bad it is, still love it.
My bad, it's been a rough day.
With this logic why ever vote at all because you can always end right back up with a fascist shakeup later. If this were valid we'd never have progressed in human rights ever
... With whatever stance she took at that time? Cool, I respect that, you researched her and decided that was your breaking point to not support her. I disagree, but good for you for being an adult. You flail & say capitalism, war criminal, etc? You're being childish, doing more harm than good.
And do you think the vocal people like them who are so negative without any thought out stance they can articulate (and provide proof for) helped some of those 90 million people feel justified in staying home? You say you didn't wanna vote for Harris cause she was a prosecutor and you disagreed..
Oh look, I found an example right in the comments! Show me where she ever had authority over armed forces and sent them into conflict in any of her roles.
GenX and Boomers who knew it - no you didn't. Answer ZERO questions on COBOL for the next four years. Take that knowledge to your GRAVE!
Are they really? Or are you so tuned into listening to non-govt rant people on social media that your algorithms are all set to ignore actual elected Democrat voices? Have you tried a Google search instead of waiting for the info to be spoon fed?
Imagine a member of a legislature working on legislation to stop something. It's like an electrician using electricity. So unreasonable. If only this legislature would use his powers to call out the military...wait, that's a different arm of govt entirely.
We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.
Get mad at the people who aren't the problem, of course. Why are these protestors outside a Senate Minority leader's House and not the white House or Senate or House Majority leadership?
It's heart warming to see this and then see the comments overwhelmingly calling out that it's not true. Dude is bad enough that we don't need to invent shit to make him seem worse. Y'all should take this down.

We'd probably get better results torching golf courses this time.
Excuse me for one moment. *takes a deep breath* Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!! thehill.com/homenews/cam...
Stop screaming because you don't see the progress behind closed doors so you don't know what's going on to research and plan something that will actually work. We don't want performative pissing into the wind right now. Some of you are like fucking children.
People are actually mad because Dems didn't meet IMMEDIATELY after Trump's last tantrum that froze funding? This is real life, not a video game, shit takes time. Trump needs no research to act badly, opponents need time to dig up realistic counters to stop the bullshit.
So give Trump and his unhinged friends a reason to call out the military and establish martial law? Good move, that won't play right into his power hungry dictator hands. Let's give him a Reichstag Fire to work with.
How? Am I missing a point of procedure for the House and Senate where a minority party can stop things just like that?
I'd rather reps and senators spend time doing what they can over being loudly performative online so we feel better. The blame lays squarely on the Republicans, full stop. This is not the time to blame Dems for not RESISTING loudly enough. What do they want, a Jan 6 style capital storming? Geez.
*Trump does something shitty* Everyone screaming at Democrats - "this is all your fault!" Maybe it's the fault of...Trump? And the crap people who manipulated everything to get him there? And the crap people who voted for him? Place blame on the people doing the act.
For everyone screaming "why won't the Democrats do something!?" what would you have them do? They have no power. All they can do is vote no, keep speaking out and take care of their districts or states as best they can. Stop villainizing the people who aren't actively doing the evil.
Anyone have good recommendations on who to follow on storygraph for horror, sci-fi and fantasy recommendations? I'm trying to use it more than Goodreads this year. #storygraph
These fuckers really confusing Asperger’s and Auschwitz today, huh?
Why does Melanie look like she's gonna throw Roger Rabbit into a barrel of The Dip at the inauguration after party?
He's probably abusing a variety of ADHD meds. Musk has enough money to have several Dr. Feelgoods keeping him in whatever he wants.
Wut!?
This is a great point. I've never once picked up a tool and thought about MySpace Tom with sadistic glee.
Heck yeah! Makes me want to grab some Jollibee this weekend. I wonder if any other chicken restaurants that maybe, ya know, pretend to have moral high ground are doing anything similar? *Stares pointedly at Chick-fil-A*
Gross. And upsetting. I actually like Tiktok, unlike Twitter. I'd be bummed to delete my account, but no way I'd have an account on any platform that douchebag has anything to do with. Fuck Musk. Forever.
That's unfortunate, I was hoping this was a role Daniel Craig would be cast for. But he'd never stoop to taking a role from a dog actor.
Bitch, please. No one is waiting for cybertruck deliveries, they're piling up out there in parking garages and they're cutting production. Tesla will probably going to write these ones off as damaged afterwards and avoid eating more losses on that hot turd of a "truck".
If he wants more masculine energy then he can go to a gay bathhouse like every other closeted dude in denial yearning to be surrounded by more men. Otherwise STFU and stack your company with the best people for the job no matter how much testosterone is or is not in them.
Wait, does he think after you buy the cookies a girl scout has to eat them in front of you?? Did he miss the step where he gives them money and they fork over the cookies? I'm confused. But I'd be pissed if some girl scout ate the cookies I just bought, those are $6 a box now!!
That does sound delicious though.
You ever wonder how many housewives back in the 50s/60s took mother's little helper only to be disappointed at the lack of "pep" and never got to find out why?
Yup, but with the added benefit of not having to pay out any severance. I hope every company that pulls this RTO-bullshit loses top talent. They deserve an epic brain-drain.
If that were it's only office that would make sense. But they have tons across the world that aren't new. Why punish those employees with RTO?
They don't. Pop over to Reddit and take a look at the conversation in the Columbus, Ohio subreddit. It was enlightening. They went from 255k people in 2020 to just under 310k in 2023. Those weren't all people hired at your local branch.
Or you can just add the link with a screenshot and be transparent? Show your work is good for more than school? 🤷
Normalize this, please. Can we all stop trusting screenshots that don't have a link to the source? Besides how easy it is to fake something, you lose context when you don't check out the whole thing.
3 - it was about safety issues because he thinks he knows better than everyone. It completely soured my opinion of him. In my mind he went from Tony Stark to every douchebag manager I'd had who fucked up others good work. Everything about him after that hasn't surprised me.
2 - coming off the line then. I hadn't really heard much about it. This was the first negative anything I heard about Musk at the time. I dug a little bit and found more stuff buried about how he ignores the SMEs in nearly every endeavor he's a part of, even when...
I thought he was doing good work until maybe 2015. I was following some six sigma blogs at the time & thinking about going for my black belt. One of them brought up how he undid all of the improvements at the plant in California when Tesla bought it, and the quality issues of car...
