AI prompt was probably “draw Hillary, but make her as fat as Donald.”

People over 80 don’t have as much of a stake in the future. Maybe they should lose the vote?
Somewhere Howard Dean is wondering how the fuck he was too unhinged to be electable in the face of daily insanity from the orange.
Summer is like 40C. Winter is 13C.
I am around $450 per month in the summer, $75 in the winter. Texas. My rate is nominally $0.087 per kwh, but the taxes make it roughly twice that. I have a big house, but it is pretty energy efficient - 2015 construction with mostly Energy Star appliances. I charge a Nissan Leaf daily.
Terrorism is an inchoate concept. History is written by the victors. American terrorists dumped tea in Boston Harbor, but they were freedom fighters and revolutionaries because they prevailed. On the flip side, Israel killed a terrorist. How do I know they were a terrorist? Because Israel wouldn’t have killed them otherwise.
Overall, other responders have good answers - equal rights, freedoms, and opportunities. Plenty of bread and circuses. I can’t be motivated to be a terrorist because I would sacrifice too much changing the status quo.
Gvim. I even write documents in it and then paste them into Word for final formatting.
I literally make a new branch. clone, and use an external merge tool (beyond compare) when my branch has fallen too far behind. I don’t trust any of the automated processes.
When bitcoin first came out I looked into out of academic curiosity. I owned a high end video card. I never bothered mining because “I don’t have any desire to buy drugs on silkroad.”
Lich. The power that other famous examples like Darth Cheney and Henry Kissinger had is just too tempting.
It had misogyny and racism to push it over the top for worst game. ET was just an unplayable mess that disappointed kids my age. Custer’s Revenge is a borderline hate crime that should have gotten everyone involved fired.
We are the mailed fist of the Emperor!
I’m not saying there is no reason to be depressed. I’m just saying there is nothing that can be done, so focus on things that make you happy - like dead billionaires trying to visit the Titanic.
Schadenfreude. Learn to take pleasure in things like massive increases in risk making insurance unaffordable for conservative fuckheads in places like Florida. A fancy beach house on Cape Hatteras just fell into the ocean (creating a wave of nasty pollution).
Climate chaos is coming for all of us, and we have done basically nothing to avert it (lots of lip service). 2023 set the record for carbon emissions, at least until 2024 is in the books.
All that is left is to watch the ensuing horrors and enjoy our comeuppance.
I would say Pretty Hate Machine is probably the best known. My favorite is Broken. You are probably correct about Downward Spiral being the consensus among the fan base as a whole. What I really like about NIN is that I enjoy all of their albums. Many other bands I like have some that I avoid. Probably my least favorite NIN album is Fixed and it’s still pretty listenable.
The photo of him saluting the N. Korean general is real. We don’t even need to fabricate this kind of material. If we are going to fabricate it, Trump’s service should be more explicit and x-rated.
I paid about $1750 in insurance premiums last year and an additional $9,000 in deductibles. This year should be a little more in premiums and hopefully, just $7500 in deductibles. (Wife was treated for cancer last year and had reconstructive surgery this year. I had a routine colonoscopy for the higher expense that I won’t need again for a few years. )
My insurance is probably better than most since my employer is huge.
Me answering: well, phytoplankton make something like 65% of the oxygen we breathe so our air naturally is about 21% oxygen. The bad news is that over the last 150 years we have been emitting huge amounts of carbon into the atmosphere which is making our oceans (where the phytoplankton live) more acidic. We know that the phytoplankton is less healthy in the acidic ocean and we’re not really sure how much more carbon the oceans can absorb before the phytoplankton really gets in trouble. Nevertheless, we are not really taking the carbon emission problem seriously because it would make the ultra wealthy slightly less wealthy, and they’re the only people that matter when it comes to public policy. So I am sorry you will probably have to experience 140F degree weather in the summer. At least as the amount of oxygen in the air decreases we’ll all get dumber, so maybe we won’t be able to comprehend the suffering we have caused.
My child to his mom: why is daddy always like this?
Last time he ran was to dodge the Vietnam draft.
Hey! That’s my IP address whenever the script kiddies are boasting in chat. How did he get it?
