America is about freedom. The freedom to mindlessly obey the President, apparently.

One of the major perks of online shopping is that I didn't have to talk to anyone. They really are desperate for use cases huh?

My bong has bluetooth and can do LED light shows but I don't even remember how to use it. Something being technologically impressive is cool but that doesn't matter if it's kind of annoying and useless.

Maybe the AI revolution is revealing how replaceable the C-suite is.

He's not wrong, really. Seasonal food items are seasonal because they aren't good enough to be regular food. Roasting a turkey is a week long process and it's never as good as chicken. If it was socially acceptable to order pizza for Thanksgiving the whole holiday menu would go extinct.

Uh, the murder one?

fuck

uh oh the people who couldn't be bothered to learn how to do art are losing interesting in doing art who could have seen that coming

I think this is based on the very common delusion that writers are all making assloads of money but the truth is much, much sadder.

If you wanted to take political advantage of gun violence, perhaps spending 30 years telling America the only thing to do after hundreds of school shootings is to move on might have been a mistake.

I'm just bored with it. We're three years in and the only impact AI has had in my work life is that some of my clients send me grating emails that are 400% longer than they need to be. Its primary applications are cheating, letting lazy people make crap, and inducing psychosis.

They say there are no rules in writing but 'delete boring stuff' is a pretty solid rule. If it's so boring you can't be bothered to write it, who do you think wants to read it?

My podiatrist's advice on shoes is basically only buy shoes that don't advertise. The ones who do are crap.

It's just maps. No art at all. There's like several centuries of portraits of dudes riding horses in the public domain. This is what Frederick Remington was born for! This is wall art for men whose social anxiety makes terrified of anyone knowing anything about them.

Man, what a deep bench of talent

Now that Thanksgiving is coming up can we talk for a second about how boring the Macy's Thanksgiving parade is? Like, it's not just boring, you can feel your brain start to congeal into an unflavored tapioca.

If they bail out AI while doubling your health care costs and releasing some heavily redacted bullshit Epstein file, there will not be a Republican Party for much longer. Just my bet.

This is the way guys, having everything on Dropbox has pulled my bacon out of several fires.

This is a lie someone who is old enough to know their high school shenanigans are on Super 8 would tell

If anyone tells you stories don’t matter, remember that in 1999 a bunch of people watched the matrix and when they grew up they became unbearable dorks who tanked the global economy trying to make it real even though its a dystopia

Hooters is too gross to be clean and too clean to be fun. Too expensive to be cheap, too bad to be good. The food is terrible and it's $21 for a pitcher of beer. The only thing it has going for it is that's open on Mondays and most federal holidays .

Also, dickmatizing the fascist into embarrassing himself is not really 'working with' as much as 'taking advantage of.'

They act like the dead internet theory is a conspiracy theory but it seems very evidence based to me.

Elon musk thinks he’s neo but he’s the anti-neo

Watching the matrix for the fist time in ages and yep. No wonder the tech bros are having some kind of religious episode

I'm a beat freak you gotta teach me cause everybody knows I'm a beat freak

This but ironically L&O has also instilled in generations of defendants the idea that doing the Wookie defense has a 50/50 chance of success and that if their lawyer is suggesting anything besides an immediate jury trial they're lazy scum.

Police have been found to have probable cause because of behavior less suspicious than in wishing people would just get tired of Epstein. This is the OJ trial of our time and Trump hasn't even tried to flee the country yet.

I have a lot of complicated feelings about this but I was a Jehovah's Witness as a kid so it's mostly a feeling of jealousy because to me religion is going to church in a dentist's office and staring at the wall until it was over.

Come for the throat singing, stay for the lute solo. www.reddit.com/r/obscuremus...

Spoiler alert: socialism won

It'd be really funny if this is what got him 25th and I think there's a non-zero chance of that happening

What if you’re just there to make sure he’s really dead?

So this is just straight up ignoring the constitution that requires it every 10 years and to "Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed."

By the time they put in all the restrictions required to keep people from being perverts or creeps or idiots ai will be less useful than rotary phone

I will wear sweatpants and a hoodie because if you're going to treat me like an anchovy who has to pay $50 to check a bag, I'll do it in comfort, tyvm.

It's only tax fraud if you don't report it on your taxes, which is entirely up to you. As to the rest, meh.

My read on these people is that they're who are having a very unfunny time right now, and it gives me hope.

Won a battle, ok, but you know perfectly well in 30 days we'll be back into the shit when they release 10000 pages of redactions of everything but the words Bill Clinton.

If they keep trying it, it'll work eventually. Right?

The psychological root of all this a nihilistic belief that the point of everything is to cater to their ego. Rewrite history so I don't have to feel bad about my actions. Rewrite science so I don't have to realize Sunday School taught me some silly things. Ban books that make realize I'm a bigot.

oh god Alan Moore is starting to make sense to me

The week after caving on the shutdown Republicans are releasing the files and will be defending their health care cuts and dodging the promised vote as the same time they will have to choose between truly releasing the file or continuing to weasel out of it. I think Schumer's job is safe for now.

I could go with the artists shouldn't be didactic because that is boring. But I also don't know of any novel worth a damn that wouldn't piss Pat Buchanan off.

Bet this sounded better in the handmaid's head.

Wow that's a trivia fact that will embarrass the hell out of all his relatives for decades to come.

What happened that Epstein even got charged when he was this close to Donald?
