You missed the change to add the qualifier "Nazi" to that, so let me correct that real quick: Fuck Musk and anyone that supports that Nazi.

"What happened?" are you for real?

Did you not read any newspaper, watch any news, or generally exist in society since 2016?

First you decided to bazooka yourselves in the foot with the Brexit vote, then went through a revolving clown show of increasingly bizarre political sideshow pieces that pretended to be PM, before finally opting to negotiate an EU exist that was about as disastrous as it could've been for your economy.

Add in the fact that the entire world has been turning to shit around you due to despotic leaders trying to rape their neighbours/the climate/populace/actual kids/everything joined by a cabal of evil billionaires who are gleefully destroying democracy and the world economy so they can go out in one final last hurrah of capitalism, and you have the audacity to ask "What happened?"?.

I seriously can't with these "I don't do politics" idiots anymore.

I'd argue "instigating" two world wars may be more accurate, but hey.

I'm slowly getting more convinced this administration's real playbook is to do anything and everything to hurt their own citizens, even if it doesn't make sense.

Sure, the grift is nice and the money is welcome, but it's a side effect of their true goals - ruining as many lives as possible.

We've all been fooled into thinking they're rational actors who just value money over their constituents, but it's getting harder and harder to continue to believe in that line.

Two weeks is literally his long term horizon for anything. Look at how many other things he's put on that rapidly becoming infamous "two weeks" term.

I mean, the chiropractor is technically correct. You'll say goodbye to a lot of things, including IBS.

I am honestly surprised it took this long for someone to warp freedom of expression right back around to include freedom of hate speech and racist symbolism. "Tolerance of intolerance is intolerance" applies here and I hope this is where the line gets drawn.

Cats do exactly what they feel like doing, external motivation be damned. Honestly, it's not a bad trait.

Even with the two suspended sentences they're letting her off the hook quite lightly if you ask me.

Sure, teenage boys are horny all the time, but this is a clear case of a power imbalance and an adult abusing it/them for their own gratification.

Funny how a scenario like this was nearly verbatim part of the "boys get raped too" course that was a mandatory part of my curriculum 26 years ago, and we're still treating this differently as a society.

I feel that, for a lot of folks, he was the last candidate that promised an actual brighter future to believe in. It's a shame corporate donors pushed him out of the race, as it left a lot of folks feeling that their voices would never be heard. I think it's even fair to say that his dismissal by the Democrat party directly led to the voter resentment that helped Trump win the elections.

Holy shit this is hard to read, what a grotesque dystopia the US has become.
I am at a loss for words to describe just how completely fucked this situation is.

Eby out there spitting truth. And he's right - this is a separatist splinter group trying to drag the majority of Albertans who want nothing to do with them kicking and screaming into the abyss of US annexation.

He's really doubling down on starting a feud with the Catholic church isn't he? Watch him declare himself head of the American church like Henry the 8th by next week or so.

In short order: Some uprisings that get omitted from the history curriculum in most American schools, a world war, an explosion of wealth inequality, a stock market crash and some economic stagnation, another world war, a period of some actually progressive politics, followed by a slow hollowing out and destruction of anything that previous period created, interspersed with some more wars, a couple of stock market crashes, more wars, present day.

Far too coherent, this was definitely written by an intern not DJT himself. ;-)

What the absolute fuck. This has got to be the most ass-backward way of designing and implementing an inventory tracking system I have ever seen. They put no effort into the thinking behind "How do we replace employees walking the aisles regularly to check?" and went straight to "We need a robot to walk the aisles regularly" instead of any sort of sensible system that uses known shelf locations and sensors, for example. This is just really lazy on both the product designers and the supermarket chains.

Or, get this, the poster is a guy who genuinely feels like this.

I can't deny that I (as a guy) have often wondered what women see in us, because to me the vast majority of men are poorly dressed on top of looking like we don't take care of ourselves.

While you are not wrong, the enemy of "perfect" should not be "good".

In this case, presuming folks get into a new vehicle ever 4-5 years on average (I know the number is skewing more toward 6-7 in the US, but the point stands) having them switch to a car that has a slightly higher production impact but makes up for it after the first 1.5 years of ownership still means we achieve net lower emissions. There are numerous studies showing that EVs, even when used on less clean electricity sources, drastically reduce total lifetime emissions compared to combustion engine vehicles.

And let's not forget that we can power EVs using renewable sources (solar, wind, hydro) which is just an economically and environmentally more sustainable practice than the single-use burning of a bunch of hydrocarbons.

I thought this was just a meme. Stores use AI robots for inventory now? What?

Thank you, now I know what having a stroke must feel like.
