somehow you missed the dripping sarcasm. he’s pointing out the things that conservatives would be mad about and label as socialism.

huh, i also think it tastes like ash…

redux is a synonym of remake and remaster.

hmm, i find burritos keep fine if you freeze them fresh then brown them in a skillet when reheating.

yeah, seems like the earlier you were born the better off you are going to be in the long run right now…

Maybe, but apparently we’re tariffing multiple uninhabited islands. It would seem that active trade is not a perquisite for tariffs these days. can’t be having people move out there and not getting tariffed in the future.

I hope he puts tariffs on Mars next. Maybe after he falls out with musk.

this is basically the plot of the movie Brazil

i think i might very much struggle with granite or other hard things.

the despicable thing they referenced was posting a video mocking their cries and terror as asmr you fuck.

“communists” that are mainly concerned with defending everything that the modern Russian and Chinese governments do and shitting on everything America does. i can vibe with the America bashing, especially right now, but China and Russia also generally suck in many of the ways that America is currently getting worse in.

sure, but like 90% of the porn on there is just to funnel people into the creators only fans these days. this could be good for those users. if they offer better terms with a lower cut than only fans i could see it taking off. there’s no discoverablility on only fans. they basically have to advertise elsewhere. and no one wants to go to a whole different website to make a whole different account when they’re already mid jerk. additionally, not many people will go to a porn site to make an account if they aren’t already looking to get off. removing that barrier for people that already have payment info on Reddit could turn it into a 1 click transaction. something that people can impulse purchase with their horny brain before the real brain catches up. if this takes off well enough they could take a lot of only fans’ customer base.

i don’t really like it, but it makes some amount of sense. personally, i think the quality of the porn on Reddit has done down almost perfectly in line with the rise of only fans. this would only serve to make it worse. Internet porn was at its best when it wasn’t monetized and the people making it were doing it because they felt like it and it probably got them off. now it’s just a job for most of them. a job that they often get real sick of real quick when they realize the amount of work, organization, and maintenance it requires to actually be successful on the platform. people that just did it for the love of strangers seeing them have sex didn’t have those burdens and could just upload what they wanted when they wanted. i guess it’s just like any art. it’s better when it’s not commercialized.

on the other other hand, i do think only fans and the democratization of the porn industry has been good for creators. the porn industry was exploitative and very unhealthy for the actors. they often did meth and downed copious amounts of boner pills to make it through long shoot days with numerous angles and shots. but idk… i never liked that kind of studio porn anyway. it’s just annoying that the replacement for it, which i also don’t typically like has taken over so much of the amateur space.

shit sorry… this became about the porn industry as a whole… i have many opinions on it because I used to work in the paid porn industry on the broadcast maintenance side. but yeah, this Reddit thing could work out if they don’t completely fuck it up.

because of the tankies lol. don’t pretend you don’t know about the reputation those instances have.

more like how many animals eat then and get poisoned.

i have an extension that fixes the first one. it’s called fb purity. let’s you control what content is on your feed and how it’s displayed.

i don’t post to Facebook anymore, i just browse it to see what friends and family are posting. it still works quite well for that with this extension.

this just makes me wish my resume ever got read by real humans anymore… at least then i could be cute with it.

oh my God, the number of times I’ve been really pissed off for no reason only to realize it’s because the shitty baseboard heater suddenly decided to crank the fuck out of itself and I’m just melting fuckin hot after getting up and feeling that my back is wet…

why does my body suck at noticing that sometimes?

you’re right, perpetrators of genocide are a better comparison.

the game has no gambling whatsoever. it only has poker aesthetic. it uses the term “ante” to mean “level”, it uses traditional poker hands, and it uses chips to define points. otherwise it’s just a non gambling card game. it would be like putting this rating on go-fish, or solitaire because they use the same cards that poker does. this game could not teach you how to play poker.

the association with gambling is entirely superficial. what has everyone up in arms is that there are many games with micro transactions that are essentially a roll at the slot machine, and intentionally designed using gambling psychology, that people lose thousands of dollars at every day. those games don’t have their gambling mechanics considered at all by ratings boards. it shows that pegi doesn’t put much work into their ratings. one game that looks like gambling but isn’t gets and 18+. the many games that have real predatory gambling tactics but hide them are free to do so with impunity.

hell, do you remember when half of twitch was people “rolling” for cs:go skins and trading them for real money. that was just straight up regular gambling that streamers were faking numbers for to show them making a profit. they used dishonest third party sites to trade the items and broadcast themselves getting unrealistic results. the only reason it stopped was because of the dishonesty of the third party sites coming out. not because of the underage gambling for a promise of actual financial returns. that still happens in many games. most of which have a lower pegi rating than cs:go or balatro.

that’s a lot of effort to ask of someone just because you like it. it feels like khaleesi requiring people to use her full title all the time. you and i are just a standard part of language that don’t diminish what one is. i am no less my name and my identity because i use i and me. those words just exist to make speaking easier and less clunky. and as i mentioned before, they’re such standard and thoughtless parts of language that it genuinely takes a lot of effort to avoid them for just one person. so I’ll use drag instead of any gendered pronouns, but you is just part of the English language that you don’t have a good reason for me to put that effort into avoiding.

so I’ll take you up on your former offer of not using drag instead of you. I won’t misgender you and call you something you’re not, but you’re still you. that’s not inaccurate. I’m not misidentifying you by saying that. I’m just not calling you you’re full title every time i speak. to me this is the same as not calling someone sir just because they think they deserve special treatment.
