This, of course, is after the hygenist is done raking your gums with a prison shiv.

Fuck that.

I strongly dislike how the argument hinges on the very movable goalpost of “illegal” drugs. It has this awful moralizing “protect the kids while we destroy privacy”, vibe to it.

At first I though this would require an end-run on HIPAA, but all they really need to do is re-schedule a bunch of therapeutic drugs. Or ignore the FDA entirely and just enforce a ban by edict (somehow) through a different agency. I don’t think we’ve ever seen federal agencies openly disagree like that before, but I think it’s possible. Also: big pharma may have something to say about all this.

Like a lot of the nonsense coming from this cabinet, it’ll test the crap out of state’s rights.

“Clock App” = TikTok.

Took me a minute, not gonna lie.

Welcome to the top of the sigmoid curve.

If you were wondering what 1999 felt like WRT to the internet, well, here we are. The Matrix was still fresh in everyone’s mind and a lot of online tech innovation kinda plateaued, followed by some “market adjustments.”

I have been sexually harassed as a man in public transportation too and while i recognize it’s not as bad for me as it is for women, because it only happened a few times, it always happened by forcing me to be smushed against a ton of people.

Let me just say: I am sorry you went through that. This is awful and indeed unacceptable. Thank you for pointing out that assault is not an entirely gendered issue, and that segregation sends everyone down a slippery slope where we fail to stop it in the first place.

Good grief. It’s like he asked ChatGPT “how do I hire people suffering from the Dunning-Kruger Effect?”

Dear meme-lords: I need something with much more facepalm than the Picard one. A “super facepalm” if you will. Thank you.

No idea. Maybe they’ll keep it like the Gadsden Flag holdout libertarians? “We were here first” and all that.

Honestly, I was thinking about the people out there with tattoos. There has to be at least one.

For me, the cherry on top is how the “InfoWars” name is still completely apt, for completely different reasons.

That also sounds like the kind of prank that Cards Against Humanity would pull if they had access to as much cash. I love this so much.

In my experience, this kind of sentiment is what marks someone as a seasoned professional. When you finally see that all tools are flawed and deserving of some negative remark for a bone-headed misfeature or three, you’ve arrived. Carry on.

Clearly it’s the voters who are wrong.

Or just get a second job and wait for the first one’s paychecks to stop rolling in.

Don’t worry Anon, I’m sure it’ll work out.

Yes. Lead.

Overtime work for your own company? If you want, sure. It all comes back to your pocket after all. You do you.

Upset that your staff isn’t participating in your non-existent work/life balance? It’s only weird if they don’t own an equal share of the business with you, or are not well compensated for the inconvenience.

Publicly shaming your staff on LinkedIn for spending time with family? Get ready to lose your top performers.

Edit: another lemming pointed out this is a co-working space. In which case, the above doesn’t directly apply to the guy in OP’s post, but is a familiar story nonetheless.

Add a philosopher to the mix and you can start rattling off all the logical fallacies in the paper too.

Not just Mars, but yes. Biodegradability isn’t even a factor since there’s no biosphere to speak of, which also raises philosophical questions like: “what is pollution, exactly?”

What will really bake your noodle is to imagine a future where we settle the Moon and Mars. Do old space program artifacts become monuments and parks (debris and all), or are they trash to be removed from the environment?

Now that you mention it, that’s probably why.

What I’m curious about is the “engineering model.”

All NASA missions have duplicate probes, satellites, rovers, here on earth. They’re essential for testing various scenarios like training astronauts (in the case of the Hubble repair missions), or testing the limits of the systems in question. I wonder if the engineering model for Curiosity has one of its wheels cut away in the same pattern, to simulate difficulties in navigation and traction?

It is so incredibly refreshing to hear someone with (however limited) power say what I’ve been seeing with the naked eye.

A four-hour drive through rural America last week showed me this: trump signs in the very poorest and the very richest yards, for miles and miles. There was the occasional Harris sign for obviously middle-class dwellings but not all.
