Bidens son had just died and he wasn’t sure he was going to stay in politics at the time, I don’t fault him for not running then.

Nah, they’ll be a special exemption for “the world’s town square” that lets him weasel out of it.

First thought: Oh hey it’s Nutty Putty Cave guy! Second thought: Holy shit I need to gtfo the Internet.

Javier Milei vibes. Ask an Argentinian how that choice is working out for them so far.

It is pretty crazy to think that for literally thousands of years, every single ancestral pairing, going all the way back to the first lil mud skippers that flopped up on land, have decided to produce offspring, which is ultimately the only reason you’re even alive today.

And when it’s your turn to uphold the unbroken tradition dating back millennia, you’re just like ‘naaaaaaah, fuck that yo’???

Honestly that’s fuckin awesome! The point of life is your own personal experience, and you should absolutely do everything you can to push it in the direction of your choosing, tradition be damned. ✌️

I’m pretty sure he would still be running for president because imprisonment is not a disqualifyer for candidacy, and that would still be his only shot at a pardon for at least 4 more years.

Would his voting base even care? I have no idea.

Same for me, and as shitty as Comcast has been in other places, I’ve had only two non-power related outages with them in almost 7 years here. I think their service quality varies not only state by state, but even county to county in some places.

That is exactly the kind of mustache I’d expect to dabble in gas station pills and research chemicals.

I found that to be a really good read. I have to say though, none of the design decisions read like mistakes if you consider that perhaps the encryption is ment to be reversible by WeChat.

They call the fact that WeChat generates the client encryption keys server side “highly unusual”, instead of the obvious, which is they found an easy way to keep prying eyes out of their protocol, while still giving themselves complete decryption control.

I use “Clock-in, counter-out”

Also basement.

At this point, I actually think the meth is more socially acceptable, too.

I saw this movie decades ago as a child with some friends, and all I can remember of the experience is that we shouted “Sucks to your Auntie!” for weeks as the new end-all playground insult.

Because you are on an instance that has defederated with many of the other ones where these types of posts originate.

Fuck Spa Sex

What did spa sex ever do to you tho?

Easy to welcome a war you will take no part in.

Yes, because surely more death will stop all this senseless killing.

Consequences for Trump?

I think that’s a fair assessment, mine isn’t all that dissimilar.

My understanding is there were only a few meters between the weight drop and complete communication loss, so either something went wrong directly related to dropping ballast, which caused the implosion, or perhaps cues the sub was in peril were ignored/misinterpreted by the captain, and the weight drop was his ineffective corrective measure.

From what I’ve read about the captian, I think his hubris would have never allowed him to fully consider they might be in real danger.
