Look you guys are valid. Every generation has pioneered slang that sticks. I get it. The problem in my estimation is that we are seeing kids come of age who were born, raised, and will die in a comment section or discord room. I have a sister in middle school in the house with me right now. The generations coming up have no clue how to behave offline. The ideas of real inflexible consequences and speaking seriously so you will be taken seriously are just completely nonexistent on their radar.

I mean, fair enough. But have you heard kids these days? Between the algorithmic feedback loop that is the modern internet, the disinterest of parents in actually parenting their kids, and chatgpt… I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be a bit concerned about how uneducated the children in our education system are coming off. It’s not me being classist, it’s valid criticism of a systemic failing.

Because schools are supposed to be raising up people who speak in a way that can be understood and indicates some intelligence.

What exactly is your take here lmao. The headline says nothing about prayer. It calls for actual physical action that is likely to positively impact outcomes for at least some immigrants. I personally consider this to be a huge net good, as it speaks respect and love for immigrants with a voice that a not-insignificant number of conservatives are willing to hear from. Did you just see the word “catholic” and wanna dunk on Christians?

I’d feel safer at the waffle house.

For me the whole IP has been so tainted by her behavior that I can’t even enjoy it if I didn’t pay. I get a gross feeling from it, like I’ve stepped directly into some filthy place and must be careful not to let anything touch me.

Got one stretching 7 feet between my media center computer and a webcam across the room (so I can take video calls on my tv from my recliner). Works great for that and whatever else I plug into it because I’m too lazy to feel for the USB port behind the computer.

If they would like to respond to the pressures of unfair quotas by not doing their job then they should do it proper and go on strike or quit and force change through high turnover, not screw over the customer. I work a bullshit underpaid job too, but I don’t neglect my responsibilities and give my clientele the short end of the stick.

Parental failings aside, this is some black mirror shit.

I mean realistically it had to take 3 seconds to snap it, less if the phone was already in hand. I don’t think things would be significantly less wet without those three lost seconds, however this picture is fucking amazing, a once-in-a-lifetime shot.

Often referred to as Sago Palms. All parts (especially the seeds) are extremely toxic to dogs. Found this out the hard way after our dog got ahold of some part of it while my mother and I were uprooting one. We nearly didn’t get her to the vet in time and she had lots of odd health issues for the rest of her life.

Man this gives me a weird feeling. It’s like the dashboard a god looks at while he plays Sim City with us.

I mean thats cool and all but somebody has to deliver the packages. It’s not the recipient’s fault the job sucks, the recipient paid for delivery with an expected time of reciept. Entering gate codes is part of the job, ringing doorbells and actually waiting for someone to answer is part of the job, actually stopping at the goddamn address and getting the package out of the truck and going up to the door with it is part of the job. If they have unreasonable expectations placed on them, that’s between them and their manager. I fail to see what it has to do with me or my package. I had FedEx leave notes on my door THREE consecutive times saying “we could not deliver your package because ‘the business is closed.’” It was a residential address, and the package contained critical medical equipment. Mofo had those slips ready so he could cut and run without looking for the package.

Even that constitutes theft on some level. It devalues children’s books and the talents required to create them. It disincentivizes parents to go support actual authors and illustrators, and anything they make with AI is based on stolen intellectual property.

In fairness, this do be what cats look like from behind.

I’ve been trying to look into joining the minnesota chapter but their website appears to do nothing but point to their socials. I’m not on social media (privacy concerns, fuck Elon and Zuck) so I’m at a bit of an impasse on how to learn more.
