I would give at least a few fingers up for an electric Miata.

This is more my issue. Like I don’t want to walk into a place looking like an asshole.

That said, the second I get a shot, I’m at least bringing any vaccinated friend within a 50 mile radius to my house.

Man, if I could kill people every time I had a shitty day, I’d work 12 hours one day and start lighting houses on fire when they have Trump signs in their yard.

Black people are basically pulling Georgia out of this hellhole themselves by playing tug of war with white conservatives. (Could just say white cons and be the same meaning.) I’m...consistently in a state of shock and pleasant surprise and awe.

Bans never stopped criminals. That why they’re criminals. Sometimes bans make sense so that innocents don’t get wrapped up in stuff (like hard drugs) or it’s less easy to commit crimes (gun control), but in general people who are willing to kill someone will keep doing it. You have to remove these people from

Anyone who is willing to say he’s loyal to God and then shoots a bunch of people is very, very much lying.

For a brief while I scratched my head and was like “hmmm this seems more sexist than racist” and then I had one of those “but why not both” moments. Seems pretty both.

Because the system is rigged to fuck over poor people, and unless we change that, we’re going to have to help them.

Giving poor people money in fact benefits you. “Trickle down” is awful. “Trickle up” works. Poor people need to pay off stuff, and that money goes straight back into the economy.

Wow, we have some really fucking bitter people here at the idea of someone not getting their “just desserts” for daring to take out a loan that didn’t go well.

Wow, that’s fucked up.

Sigh.

Conservatives and fundie religious folk have been trying to cancel any new media, from comic books to video games to D&D. Leftists are trying to get people fired and stripped of any good reputation or relations. In the end, the only way to have no canceling is to have no consequences for things people say or have done

I used to be an insufferable subs > dubs pedant and would, for any Japanese game, turn on Japanese voice acting, but I’m too old for that shit nowadays. English audio, English subtitles, those are the first changes I make.”

I really, really want a good place to get stuffed pizza. I miss it. There was a place in Boston called Sicilia’s, and they closed like 10 years ago, and I can’t find anything else.

Anything requiring a water bath. I’m terrified of these. I don’t want to go to all that trouble and then have my dessert suck.

Robots will grow the food. Automation isn’t the future, it’s here. It’s also improving constantly.

But we’re never going to do it right. Humans are greedy, lazy, and really hate giving stuff up. If people refuse to reduce waste, we have to reduce the population to account for it. That’s just human instinct.

And yet we’re prioritizing them during the pandemic. ...I kinda want to flip that to clean out the political situation.

The one point I’ve seen about “censoring” is that Facebook and Twitter are considered the “public square” these days — but they’re privatized. This means there is no internet public square where you can assemble and demand to be heard. Yes, people can go to alternate social media, but that’s more like holding a
