If you make memes this is a good place to get an unfried version of this one I guess

It looks like they haven’t sold it, original buyer (some music studio in dubai) owns it

They call me Dr. Worm, I’m not a real doctor but I am a real worm

[Partisan] americans also like to wave off the roughly 1/3 of eligible voters who don’t vote at all as if they just forgot or were too lazy to vote or something. A lot of people are disillusioned with the whole thing, but the partisans are the loudest and the media mostly cares about them so it makes it sound like it’s 50/50.

According to the latest gallup data about 27% identify with each of the two major parties and about 43% as independent (of major parties).

Won’t even draw a hard line at genocide

I have a friend who turned in such a good paper during grad school that the professor thought it was plagiarized (no turnitin or anything) and gave him a 0. After meeting with the teacher and straightening it out I would have felt pretty good about myself.

So practical that you’ve all totally lost your moral compass. Who would write their name under a column that has active genocide support marked off? Blows mu mind that you people act like you have some sort of practical moral high ground while actively supporting genocide (voting is an act).

I’ve gotten fancy (though unmatched) washers and dryers free or dirt cheap off craigslist every place I’ve lived that had hookups. Wish my current place had hookups:(

They used them at my parents’ church in the late 90’s— parents of little kids would hold one during the service in case the nursery needed them

I think this cycle is more like half a generation above you than a whole generation. My fav bands in my teen prime were in their early 30’s, while my parents were closer to early 50s at the time.

Primary elections aren’t democratic either (see party delegates). I feel like people who say this are rarely politically engaged in their communities. Same with the people who say to get involved in local city politics to make change.

Ultimately you’re supporting a facist system that is historically atrocious and currently financially supporting a genocide almost singlehandedly but go ahead and keep telling people that the best way to maintain some semblance of moral character is to vote in this sham.

What a sweet face 🥹🥹 I’m sorry for your loss

For sure, and with even a teensy bit of reflection I think most people would agree that people are generally quite shit at expressing themselves with words. We say things we don’t mean or imply things we didn’t intend to all the time. A well written book or article takes hundreds of hours of re-writing and getting feedback and re-writing again just to try to communicate the author’s idea effectively. Snap judgments based on social media posts alone are pretty baseless.

Yes, best to assume you’re always misunderstanding, or at least not understanding completely, a conversational comment until you have a holistic understanding of where they’re coming from (ie you become familiar with them and how they think and what they value).

Me when the dressage horse starts with the wrong foot during the diagonal part

The quality line shouldn’t be so straight! Lots of excellent new big budget sci fi this year (PotA, Mad Max, Dune, quiet place, Alien soon) and even some non sequel/prequel ones (Wild Robot, Megapolis, Slingshot). The PRICES to go and get a bucket of popcorn and a drink to share have started to approach undoable though.

I don’t know but I’ve noticed a price difference in the US too. I am usually actively avoiding the gels because they’re not vegetarian so it doesn’t bother me but it’s weird since it’s the same vitamin content like you mentioned.

My coworkers and I have to remap the network drives to our office wide file systems 2-3 times a day to access the files. This is the main file storage(some teams have moved some stuff to google drive but that doesn’t work for sensitive info).

There’s a towel bar in front of my toilet (small bathroom) and holding onto it during a poop can absolutely elevate your form. Mind you I have a squatty potty too so this is an advanced technique.
