Reminds me of a line from The Maxx: “The Crapon-in-a-hat and Jean Paul Satre team up to fight nausea? Sounds like a losing battle to me.”
Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.

persistence hunting was one of the main hunting strategies during a large portion of human evolution before ranged weapons were invented
How do ranged weapons invalidate persistence hunting?
If you’re trying to chase down an animal till it’s exhausted, I think you’d want to be throwing stuff at it to injure or at least to keep it moving.
Also, was there a time before ranged weapons? As soon as humans have weapons we have ranged weapons because we can throw. Atlatls and slings - tools to help you throw sticks and stones - wouldn’t have been developed if we weren’t already throwing sticks and stones at things.
I’m a renter, so I’d throw a brick through each window of my property manager’s tesla.
Lynch’s business partner who was also involved in defrauding HP was killed in a hit and run while jogging 2 days before Lynch’s yacht went down.
no fucking way
Exactly. Imagine being born with 2 tails instead of arms and still being a cook. That’s dedication.
Our electoral system is just shit.
She’s way more popular and so are her policies, but having the support of the majority of voters doesn’t guarantee victory like it would if we lived in a democracy.
Eliminating the Senate might seem like a good way to reduce the outsized influence that voters in smaller states wield, but the Senate helps keep those states in the union.
Also, the death penalty should be eliminated, not expanded.
We obviously need to address the fact that our government doesn’t represent the country, but drastically increasing the ability of larger states to ride roughshod over the interests of smaller states is not a recipe for stability.
Those are easy:
A grifter.
The true Roman way.
Plato’s Republic.
Increasingly complex chemical interactions around thermal vents.
Some rich guy.
Nope.
”pre-emptive" now means brutal and unnecessary violence designed to save the political career of a tyrant?
Even CNN felt the need to scare-quote the term in the headline and the article, since it’s obviously a lie.
The fact that you posted that incredibly disingenuous jpost piece from foxman yesterday makes me very skeptical of your ability to identify what is and is not antisemitism.
What would this do to the local ecology?
This was my first thought.
Marine tardigrades are the weirder, cooler cousins of the freshwater moss-piglets we all love. They are just one of the species that live in intertidal sand.
Braniac, a British show kinda like mythbusters, filled a pool with custard and walked over it.
That’s absolutely inappropriate. You should be pissing on a supporter of trickle down economics.
A friend of mine had his phone snatched on the bus, so he had me call his phone and pretend to be the phone company, telling the thief that he’d won a new phone and I just needed his address.
The police were very happy that we’d done their job for them, and they got his phone back.
“It went down, not in one minute as some scientists have said. It went down in 16 minutes,” Costantino told the Financial Times. “You can see it from the charts, from the [Automatic Identification System] tracking chart.”
Business Insider could not independently verify his statement.
The yacht maker offered no proof, so we’ll have to wait and see if it’s yet another rich person lying.
Speaking of rich people lying, Mike Lynch and his VP of finance, Stephen Chamberlain, were accused of using fraud to overvalue their company before selling it to HP, who wanted $5b in damages.
They were acquitted last month. Chamberlain was killed by a car while jogging, two days before Lynch’s yacht went down.
You’re a troll though. It’s easy to tell because every single post in your comment history is trolling.
I’m gonna block you now but best of luck with your future trolling.
Threaded messages seems fine to me, as you said that usage is more well understood than threadiverse which risks conceptually-centering a billionaire controlled platform.
The existence of threads makes threadiverse an inappropriate name for fediverse content aggregators, is the point I was being overly sarcastic about.
How?
I read the article but I don’t understand how bots making and listening to songs to generate royalties for the bot owners affects anyone but the royalty-payers?
