American colleges/universities are just propaganda centers

I feel like my public education from kindergarten thru high school was much more of a propaganda pipeline than my public university education. We didn’t do the pledge of allegiance in uni, nor were we taught the Revolutionary War 8 times over

people come out dumber, more polarized and in great debt

Dumber? No, they might come out more book-smart than street-smart but there are different kinds of intelligence and we need all of them. Polarized? That’s the entire country, regardless of education, and the media has much more to do with that than anything else. Great debt? Yes.

Most don’t even like their career

I’m sure plenty of blue-collar workers hate their jobs too. It’s work, not leisure

I like hearing them purr and watching their zoomies

For me, anything dragonfruit flavored

For seemingly everyone else in my life, they had a bad experience with Fireball when they were young and didn’t know how to pace themselves yet, which sucks because I unironically like Fireball

A lot of these have the vibe of 90s Encarta Encyclopedia on CD

G - would be cool to have butt cheeks on your money

I have an opinion about Bill Burr in particular. I was a faithful listener of his podcast for many years but I stopped a couple months ago because it was getting extremely repetitive. Every episode, he would go on the same rant about how billionaires are the source of most of America’s problems - which is something I wholeheartedly agree with, but I listened to his podcast for a brief comedic escape from the world, not for the same political discussions that pop up everywhere else.

So when I heard he accepted a direct payment of a huge sum of money from the very people he’s constantly argued are the #1 enemies, I felt surprised and betrayed. I just don’t believe he’s in a position to take the “soft power” stance when he’s receiving money from the very royal family that’s the cause of so many human rights issues in that country. Not gonna be supporting any of his work anymore.

A military fighting on their own soil is going to be much stronger infrastructure- and intelligence-wise vs. if they’re fighting on foreign soil

Fighting guerilla forces on foreign land is a completely different context

Planes can’t patrol street corners

Sure, but tanks/armored vehicles can, and police absolutely use those

Can’t tell if this is a sarcastic question or not but opposing the government with guns is a delusion held by conservatives who think their AR-15s have a chance against a government with drones, tanks, etc. That belief was true when the Bill of Rights was written and the military just had muskets and a couple cannons but anyone who believes that now is insane

Plus, our police shoot unarmed people and get away with it, what do you think is gonna happen if they see you open carrying?

Be sure to put things through an AI detector to avoid being filtered out for sounding like AI

This is real? So corporations are allowed to use AI to write job listings and process resumes, but we’re not allowed to use it to help write our resumes?

accounts.google.com/gsi/* blocks the “sign in with Google” popups

No, I do not want to sign into pornhub with my Google account

Seinfeld is Unfunny

Happens to me way too often. I wish the loading indicator that web browsers have didn’t settle until EVERYTHING finished rendering but I guess that’s technically impossible with JavaScript stuff

Can personally speak to 1-3 being available

The bane of my existence before it hit Paramount+

Now you can find individual episodes as WEB-DL

I think the true title of the book is “How to Make Shallow Friends and Manipulate People”

Great advice for making acquaintances at work but definitely do not apply it to your personal life

Awesome!
