I’ve learned to keep it short and try to shut up again quickly but I still do this. Thank you for helping to explain why it’s unnecessary not just bad, unhelpful, or annoying.

I also try to ask, once my friends have had time to vent for a while, if they are looking for help with the situation or just need to vent. It’s usually pretty 50/50. I personally need to vent before looking at how to improve the outcome in the future and I try to give people the same space. It’s hard but I try.

The giants are back and attacking hundreds of people!

Feels like it was about 10 years ago when Republicans started calling anyone with a sense of empathy special snowflakes.

It was kind of like, “Oh you don’t think I should say the n word? Well you’re just a special snowflake!” Seems pretty revealing.

Yeah dog, is not just our government… Well, I guess this is because of the lack of a government for the people. But yeah for more than a few years shopping for groceries has become where do you personally get the lowest prices. I get different discounts from my partner.

We now shop at a store that doesn’t play this type of game but many people live in an area that only contains stores like this.

We should have an AI design a robot with the same level of dexterity as human hands!

Back in my day we used to call it “searching”

No need for an invite. Creators need to be invited to join the platform. So not just anyone can post their content there. A thing missing from Nebula is gaming content, like gameplays, etc., but it’s a curated list of creators that put out generally quality stuff.

I paid for the lifetime subscription assuming it’s been around for like 3 years, I reckon it’ll be around 3 more and I don’t want to deal with another monthly sub. I really like Jet Lag, I find it just the right amount of neurodivergent fun and competitive and chill. I also watch channels like Wendover, Not Just Bikes, and Real Life Lore. They are all on Nebula and I assume my sub is somehow divided up equitably, although I haven’t looked into it. I also hope some of the money I paid goes to people who I haven’t heard of or watched yet but I might like to watch in the future.

Is it better than YouTube…no. But it doesn’t have to be, it is serving a different use case. I know when I open Nebula that I’ll find something worth watching with no slop and a lot less money going to multinational corporations. They still have servers that need hosting so some money has to go to corporations but I’m not paying a trillion dollar company directly which feels nice.

It’s probably a hill that gets muddy. Everyone walks in the same spot because they’ve been flattened out like stairs and you slip less. It does happen naturally over time and many feet.

I never forget the pink triangles. Nor have I forgotten about the stars. Fuck Nazis.

They don’t have to. Is just easier to do so.

Really they should just share the video at the top of the article. Like yo, here’s the alleged tape of the alleged rape that the alleged rapists allegedly didn’t do, you decide.

I make noodles with red sauce fairly frequently. I just get a big, 28oz, can of whole peeled tomatoes, no Calcium Bicarbonate because that makes the tomatoes taste like crap. I dunno the whole can of tomatoes in a pot on the stove with some basil and let it reduce for 30 minutes to an hour.

If I’m feeling fancy I put a minced onion or shallot with some butter in before the tomatoes.

Anyway, salt to taste, add a little of this or that for umami… Boil some noods and bam it’s done. Top noods with sauce and it’s a fine dish. Add some cheese if you feel kinky.

Tomato, Basil, salt. What a dream.

Spin is actually adding words like “admits” to a headline in order to lead the reader to a certain belief. In this case the .ml headline leads us to believe this information has been concealed. When a much more reasonable take is that you, me, and the average reader is probably coming across this info for the first time. It’s not been hidden, it’s new.

Seems like the take from .ml should be, “You fools, rise up! Your government is getting your countrymen killed in a bullshit war, AGAIN!”

But this headline spins it to read as, “This bullshit war is getting people killed but the government is hiding it, wake up sheeple!”

The first is a cry to come together the second serves to divide us small people.

God damn, good catch! Wishing you the best of luck in your recovery and your remission.

Nah dog this is just bad spin. You scape goat me because I choose to speak up but it sure sounds to me like you’re living in your own little bubble. Personally I don’t know how many people have been killed on either side, I’ve just assumed it’s more than either side wants to admit because losing anyone is always more than the powers that be want to admit.

Reuters being about 2-3 days behind the conflict feels pretty normal. But like call it what you will. Maybe it is a global propaganda apparatus… But more likely it’s just people being careful and slowing down transmission speed so they can confirm what information they are passing along. Buy you know, you do you.

What a bad title, it’s not even the one used on the website. It’s not like Reuters has been hiding this shit. The US Gov is the one who would have to “admit” anything except they’ve already publicly said that some troops will for and that’s a loss they are excited to make.

Fucking .ml spin. You know you don’t have to try to make the US seem bad right? We do it ourselves just fine.

We paid NBC for coverage two years ago and found out that while they steam all day coverage you can’t replay that coverage. I wanted to wake up, watch a stream that started 5-6 hours earlier and spend all day watching Olympics coverage, rinse and repeat. Instead I could only jump into the stream and rewind 3 hours max, so I immediately lost 2 hours. Then it was a mad rush to catch up to live because the minute coverage ends for the day the stream is removed and deleted with no easy to finish it let alone restart it.

Literally the worst experience. Surely there is a better system out there, especially since I’m willing to pay, but in the meantime a VPN and CBC’s coverage is okay. Maybe next Olympics I’ll have the energy to find a real solution.

I mean, I feel like woke isn’t a thing to be for or against, it’s literally being aware. There is an implied woke=anti-cruelty, but I feel like you can be woke and support the oppression of others through the power of the system. Just don’t expect other people to recognize your “wokeness” or be pleased that you’re so aware that the things you’re doing are cruel and shitty.

This feels like my step dad being upset that the weather channel is trying to scare us by calling it an atmospheric river! Like dude we’re using a fun new term to describe a weather pattern, it just means rain if you’re caught beneath the river. Not scary unless you’re in a flood zone.

We didn’t see how we got to 1984. We just see one person living with consequences of what society has become. We’re building our own 1984 right now!
