I’m slightly upset the person is not named Joan. Joan’s bones sounds a lot better than Jon’s bones.

I absolutely didn’t acknowledge that it isn’t the intent, I said it may not be.

I absolutely think that is the intent and I find those communities to be gross and have them all blocked.

You are so weirdly defensive about it. Almost like you know a lot of people find it highly questionable and they may have a point. If you think every anime fan is into that crap, you are very sorely mistaken, and if you don’t, you are using inapplicable generalizations to make a point and that’s just deceptive.

I’m with you on this. That may not be the intent, but it sure as hell is the vibe they give off.

I do this with my spider plant pups 💜 one of the flower stalk things almost reached my counter, so dangly!

And I give people cuttings of my Mini Tradescantia whenever I have enough rooted to pot them. “Here have a cute easy plant! Water it every other week, and turn it regularly, maybe fertilize it someday, cuz it’s planted in coco coir, but doesn’t seem to care that much.. No it doesn’t really seem to matter how much light it gets, tho the brighter, the more pink..”

The focus on seniors (from pick your poison politician) is fine and all.. I realize a lot of people are seniors, and they are reliable voters and stuff.

Seriously though, I’m so fucking tired of hearing about what seniors will/could get from the next term, and this isn’t a lot better. There’s some good stuff, but cmon, you aren’t actually going to sway entrenched old people no matter what you give them.

I love sanders, I went to see him speak a few months back when he was at a union hall locally. But this country is mostly -not- old people. We really need to stop catering to them, at our own expense.

I’m almost 40. I don’t give a flying fuck into a rolling donut about seniors compared to the entirety of the working class. You know, the people making all their entitlements solvent? They fucked it up already, and they had their chance to fix it many many times since. As a generation, they fucking failed to do anything meaningful for us, their progeny, why should we prostrate ourselves to them? They are going to fucking die soon, and while we should absolutely take proper care of them…. (So please don’t misunderstand this rage)

WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF US???????

(Full disclosure, I’m presently a canvasser for the Harris/Walz ticket, and I’ve talked to a lot of old people who only give a fuck about what it means for them. They have kids, they have grandkids, but their only concern is why they get out of it, and that’s fucking disgusting. I hate talking to those selfish assholes. I do it because it’s my job, but holy shit do I just want to say “cool story, bro” and walk away. Also those fuckers don’t shut up about what they want. Don’t care grandpa, you aren’t even part of the economy anymore except what they can extract from your estate to keep you alive, so your kids get nothing..)

I oppose this candidate on the mandatory naps. Idk what else they stand for but that’s a big turn off for me, as a single-issue voter.

I can’t nap. Naps are literally nightmare fuel for me, in that every time I nap I have horribly realistic and super vivid nightmares.

I’m gunna start the anti-napping coalliance to defeat this absolute whacko. Preserve freedom!!!

(The nightmares bit is true, the rest is in jest)

I’m not going to look it up, but I’m curious about the hyphenated last name.

Is he married and took his wife’s name as part of his own (progressive!) or did his parents do that (also progressive, but makes one wonder where he fell off the tree)?

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 5 points 3 days ago

Not just a useless middleman!

A nepotism monopoly middleman! Yay!

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 22 points 3 days ago

Oof.

Thanks for the link. It’s one thing to be told “trust me bro”, and another entirely to… have context.

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 3 points 3 days ago

Gosh, I wish graphics in the 80s on those awesome games was anywhere near that good.

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 26 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Wait is this real..? Are they saying the quiet part out loud again…? Screaming loud..?

What’s the context here?

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 days ago

I was 35 before I heard it called anything but bags. I only found out it’s called cornhole (because I guess the bags used to be filled with corn?) because I was at a bar, and it was on. On ESPN. That’s also the day I learned ESPN will show just about anything that can be classified as a sport or game when there aren’t major sports events going on.

I laughed for a solid several minutes about it. (Thankfully I was not by myself or I’d have looked like a nutter)
