Always go out of your way to discriminate against these people. They will always, collectively, in unison do the same to you. They will show no mercy and give no quarter. Stop “being nice” because the enemy stopped “being nice” a long fucking time ago.

No, but all the conservative evangelical “but suffering brings us closer to God” waste of space type people that want to live in the 1940s sure are having a hell of a hurrah though.
As long as they are becoming a dictator to enforce an ideology I believe in, absolutely. I’d definitely seize this opportunity to go after my enemies as well. The “golden rule” is treat others how you want to be treated and I’m sick and tired of being a punching bag, so it’s only fair.
The time to be nice about the state of our broken society ended a long time ago. The enemy gives no quarter and they won’t stop until we’re all slaves working for less than basic needs in return. If I got my way via S/O proxy dictatorship, life is going to massively improve for the average person anyhow.
If they were becoming a fascist, what else would I do, execute a double cross, steal some nukes and wreck havoc? I’d try to manipulate them into letting me life an easy life first but if they actually expected me to live like a evangelical conservative idiot, that ain’t gonna happen so cowabunga it is.
Looking forward to the federal thc hemp ban. Then I can grow weed for huge profit margins, quit my real job, and actually sit around and play video games without giving anything back to society all day like he’s accusing us all of doing. Wish they’d make alcohol illegal too. We have enough dipshits in congress for this to happen after they do all this horrible stuff and then get angry when non of it accomplishes what they think it will accomplish. Moonshine is even easier to mass produce than weed and like 4000% easier to get away with.
There kind of… isn’t. I’ve been battling heat with extreme prejudice my entire life. MAYBE the closest thing to a solution is to drink lots of ice water and then hopefully you’re not one of those people who can’t sleep if its hot (i am).
Try to “store” as much “cold” as possible. i.e. if you have a half working a/c unit, run it at 100% at night and once the temperatures get as low as they’re going to get, close all the windows, cover the windows, unplug fridge or whatever is producing heat you can afford to shut down and maybe if you’re lucky it will be around 1 or 2 pm before it heats up to utter bullshit temperatures.
If you have a way to get unlimited free ice (IMPORTANT: and NOT from the fridge in the living space you are trying to cool), you can use that to cool things down in the evening when everything is the hottest. If you have to buy the ice, just buy a ac unit because it will pay for itself in no time. And if you’re doing this because you can’t afford the electricity, maybe see about wiring up a solar panel and battery which, again, will pay for itself if you could’ve afforded to literally buy bags of ice every day. And if you’re doing this to protect the environment, get a ac unit that doesn’t contain ozone-layer destroying coolant (i.e. most of them). Buying ice for cooling is incredibly inefficient.
You can also take the ice-based cooling strategy further. Get a bucket. A fan. A big radiator (you need quantity(sq area) not quality, get a shitty heater core one and not a pc watercooling one). A pc watercooling pump. Some tubing, along with whatever barb fittings and pipe clamps you need. Make it so that the radiator is sitting in front of a fan while having water from the bucket being pumped through it. Add your ice to the bucket. This system will dump the “cold” from the ice into the room as quickly as possible, MUCH quicker than just setting the ice in front of a fan to melt by itself. If you actually have a truly unlimited source of ice this will provide nearly the same amount of cooling (while the ice is fresh at least) as an actual window ac unit. I do this irl sometimes and usually keep one mostly set up and ready to go just in case my a/c stops working.
It’s going to take time to find a cheap or free radiator if you’re living like this for financial reasons but bending some copper tubing around the fan also works decently. If you buy it at the hardware store its likely going to come coiled up in a box and already in the perfect shape for this.
At a certain point, obtaining the amount of ice you need to maintain this becomes a problem. If you REALLY don’t want to buy an ac unit at this point as maybe some kind of personal challenge or whatever, its time to science the shit out of it. Get a refrigerator. Put it outside, as leaving it inside will dump heat into the room defeating the purpose. Mod a bucket into the fridge and run 2 tubes out of it: an input and an output. Run this tubing into your living space somehow and into the radiator and the fan. You could alternatively put the fridge inside and find a way to attach a duct to the back of it to vent air outside which is may be more convenient depending on your living situation. Congratulations. You’ve built an a/c unit without technically actually building an a/c unit. Maybe in some countries this helps for tax purposes. I’ve never tried going this far with it before saying fuck it and getting an a/c unit so post pics if you do.
Frankly, I agree. I just want health insurance, weed to be legal and I want for employers to be stripped of some of the freedoms they are abusing to destroy the economy and this country as a whole. I don’t give a fuck who they bomb in the middle east in exchange for it. I just want to be able to live my life. Too bad not enough people voted blue no matter who.
at first I read Jonathan as “Johnson” and for a split moment in time I was filled with hope that it would be “Mike Johnson” but nope. Now I feel like the guy in that old Russian joke about checking the newspaper headline every day for an obituary.
I fucking hate these kinds of questions. D is the CORRECT answer because TECHNICALLY html is a markup language and not a programming language but the average person irl will just call you a dipshit for trying to explain that. If this were a question on a shitty academic exam, its going to be a 50/50 toss up on which will get counted as correct because the Autograder Bot Knows All™ but you better not fucking use AI to get your low effort AI-generated homework done quicker because fuck you.
In the US, being white on its own without also being rich doesn’t really help you out much anymore. It’s different if you’re very obviously living a 1950s lifestyle, have a tradwife, a bunch of kids and are a neurotypical Christian of course. Employers are seemingly more interested in hiring those types of people above all else even when there are more qualified candidates. I need to start lying about my life and maybe using ai to back it up with pictures.
well I sure am glad gen z and swing voters decided to throw away my future in exchange for putting a stop to this OH WAIT THAT DIDN’T HAPPEN, AS ANYONE WITH A SINGLE FUNCTIONING BRAIN CELL COULD HAVE PREDICTED.
Unpopular opinion but graphics do matter a little bit or at least more than the meme depicts. Dwarf Fortress was unplayable before they added actual graphics to it. I wish things moved between tiles fluidly like in Rimworld instead of it being a slideshow, but I can actually stand to play Dwarf Fortress now. If the only video games that existed were text-based, I’d probably never play video games again. Ps2 era graphics on the other hand, hell yeah. 90s era dos graphics are passable too. But PLEASE no text adventure games.
In the US it’s almost possible for 1 person to fully support themselves working 2 entry-level jobs at 40hours a week each, at least in places with lower costs of living. People act like doing full time college while working a full time job is normal and if you can’t make it work you’re a loser. A good portion of people get “really good” jobs where it’s possible to sustain yourself on 1 salary but it’s almost harder to get those jobs than it is to win the lottery and even harder to KEEP them. Many of them end up being a 70+hour a week gig anyway and once the bosses start demanding even more from you it’s all over. I have 2 degrees even. Corporations have destroyed our society.
Christianity has done more harm to modern society than drugs ever could
please no. If we elect another fascist in the off chance it might help Gaza i’m going to go fucking postal.
voters threw away their future so they could “help” the poor people in Gaza from getting bombed by “the evil democrats”. I SWORE UP AND DOWN voluntarily making things worse for us because it might help some poor people on the other side of the world was the wrong move and I was vilified for this opinion by everyone in existence.
Now Gaza is still getting bombed and they are additionally committing war crimes against American people instead of just Gazans. Fuck me. Even feral animals have the ability to watch out for themselves better than this season’s swing voters did.
ah yes lets make things harder on service workers just because they exist. Make some random stocker that’s already been repeatedly threatened to be fired for not meeting targets stop what they’re doing and come ring you up and scan all your shit. If they’re lucky the boss will let them stay over and work off the clock to get their stuff done. As someone who has 2 degrees and is underemployed because our society is corrupt and broken: fuck this type of behavior. Fuck people who bully service workers. I suppose next there will be a meme about bullying fast food workers for being worthless members of society. ha. ha. where funny.
For most of world history UK has kind of been among the worst countries in the world. They were committing atrocities in the name of preserving religious ideals before nazis were even a thing. Their leadership has been starving their citizens while the monarchy lives with lavish excess since before north korea ever existed. Committing war crimes used to be as commonplace back in the day as afternoon tea.
How the UK somehow fell into public favor online seems like an anomaly to me. They got attacked during WW2 and then weren’t communists during the cold war. Big woop-de-doo. People usually speak highly of UK online but any time they’re in the news it’s because they’re doing something truly awful (recently moving towards establishing a regime of online censorship on par with that of China’s).
I am shocked whenever I see people reacting to something shitty the UK is doing like its some kind of unprecedented unexpected event. They’ve been doing this type of shit for THE LAST THOUSAND YEARS. All I’m saying is they deserve A LOT more hate than they currently get.
