Shooting pistols while high on Oxycontin is in the Constitution!

Finno-Urgic Chad: “haha hey guys watch this”

He had blood on his ear, too

As opposed to Israel which considered Palestinians just Arab colonizers and them just the righteous people who is going back to their land so they want them either expulsed to Egypt and other countries or kill them

??? This is literally the official position of the Russian Federation — they consider Ukrainians colonizers who unjustly rebelled and stole Russian land, assets, and production. Putin does not want to assimilate Ukrainians; the intention is total extermination and replacement with ethnic Russians, and always has been.

I am not here to debate which genocide is worse, because plainly, Palestinians are suffering yawning abuses that would make even Mussolini blush. I am just saying that Palestine is not the only active genocide happening in the world right now. Ukraine can fight back; Palestine cannot. That is plainly on a different level. There’s no need to imply I am an idiot just because I pay attention to other stuff happening in parts of the world that don’t report in English.

Palestine is the only place where there is a war of extemination right now

Listen, I am about as active as any non-Israeli or non-Palestinian can be in anti-genocide discourse, but you’re smoking crack if you think that Russia’s intentions for Ukraine are to simply absorb their government and people. Russians by and by large do not believe Ukrainian culture is a thing, and in fact, have been breaking chunks off from their culture and absorbing it as their own since Moscow was founded by a couple of guys who got lost in the woods.

Russia’s goal is absolute cultural annihilation, and their actions have fit the standard definition of genocide since 2022.

I have long been of the opinion that if you read newspaper headlines like a WWF announcer, it really is indiscernible.

PRO-PALESTINE ACTORS ABSOLUTELY SLAM APARTHEID CLYDE, TAKING A SIXTY FOOT PLUNGE OFF OF HELL IN A CELL AND DIRECTLY ONTO AN ANNOUNCERS’ TABLE!!! BAWGAWD, THAT’S TRUMP’S THEME MUSIC

Nah, as someone who gave an honest, college try at making use of OneDrive, I maintain its fate vis a vie the rusty hook.

“Windows meme makers, can you go five seconds without revealing your appalling lack of technical curiosity?”

Windows Meme Makers: “The C drive! … How long was that?”

A paycheck is a paycheck. Lots of us exchange our ego for daily bread — we have a club and everything. We meet every day after work at your local bar.

Oh yeah. Don’t you guys also do murder scene remediation?

“Computer, fix this code and don’t make mistakes.”

It’s a real dumb idea but I’ll be honest, I think all of us should have expected that when Chrome switched to an engine that doesn’t allow for ad blockers.

I’m with the rest of the commenters on other threads — I’ll just switch to PostmarketOS and make Linux work for me. Very little of what I do on a phone really requires “apps.”

“The longer you live, the younger you become” — this bitch has clearly never heard of human leukocyte antigens.

Ah, good thing those are cheap materials, then!

Goo in, goo out.

if you look at a lot of this stuff now, it’ll be assigned to a subreddit called “/r/reddit.com”

i had signed up to see if I am a match, which i would have donated if i had been selected. please show me where i mentioned actually donating bone marrow.

a lot of people aren’t old enough to remember that when the digg exodus happened, reddit didn’t even have subreddits yet. it was just links on one page, and we built our little subculture in the comments of each thread. that’s why there is such a culture of commenting before reading the article (if at all) — it used to be a big, disorganized blob of chatty nonsense, much like Fark or MetaFilter were at the time too.

reddit is a lovely example of how tech companies from 1995 to 2020 fell into success and figured out what their product does later down the line. to quote homer simpson when asked what his tech company does, “we’re a website that sells computers… or… a computer that sells websites, I haven’t decided yet.”

i actually knew one of these powerusers in the early 2010s. he had leukemia, and i signed up to be a match to donate spinal marrow for him. i visited him in the hospital a bunch. he hasn’t acknowledged me since. that was a real bummer, but, i tend to see friends where they don’t exist so that might be on me.

i am a little bummed that i got permabanned just because i was so close to all of the reddit founders and early employees. i personally prevented alexis from getting arrested for trying to openly smoke weed on the street in pittsburgh when it was still the kind of thing that got you put in prison for a few years if your skin is darker than popcorn.

steve huffman in particular is a shitter and always has been. think of that kid you knew growing up who would make up that his dad worked at SEGA and that Goku was going to be in the next Sonic game — that’s spez, still, to this day. he is “mr. namedropper.” steve, genuinely, i do not care that you saw Beyoncé at the airport.

ETA: since people are being weird about phrasing, i signed up to be a match. his alias back then was Dacvac. i literally sat in bars and watched him mod /r/pics on an iPad. believe me or don’t, i’m just some schmoe online after all.

Driving is honestly very stimulating for me. I have AuDHD and it is one of the few times I feel calm because I can actively engage all of my senses. Something about keeping an awareness in your head of what’s around you and your car really keeps me occupied.
