Juggalos are a subculture of people who feel ostracized and such, are generally VERY welcoming to people deemed “lesser” by the world. It’s a community that celebrates being yourself. If you’re not hurting anyone, you do you!

I think it’s kind of beautiful even though the music is not for me.

I fucking hated that segment.

That shitty host is like “WOW GET A LOAD OF THESE FREAKS” the whole time while the freaks are being welcoming and nice.

I know it’s the dudes schtick to be the sassy, judgemental gay guy but those juggalos but he was desperately trying to make them the butt of the joke and it didn’t work. He looked like a total asshole, it was like listening to a Mean Girl bully the nicest kids in class.

The only part he wasn’t an obnoxious douchebag was during the sit-down interview.

Hey man…leave the kid out of it. Kids rely on their parents for their health and habits, it’s not their fault they weren’t vaccinated!

I didn’t think it was ugly until I saw one in person and walked around it myself… Something about it feels so wrong, like they dressed up a junker with big metal panels for a 90s sci-fi prop. It’s unnecessarily bulky.

I’m big on the form-follows-function mindset of beauty for stuff like cars and this one seems like Elmo’s son drew a car in markers and he said “FIT A VEHICLE IN THIS SHAPE”

Actually, my main takeaway wasn’t “this thing is ugly” - it was “this thing looks fuckin dangerous”

I didn’t mean it to dunk on Tesla, that dude rocked! I was just hoping to see the source of the claim. I went back to copy part of the page for this reply and apparently I missed the [4] so my comment was wrong. Here’s the relevant bit from that page which satiated my curiosity:

[…] he revealed that an earthquake which drew police and ambulances to the region of his laboratory

I didn’t think the bridge collapse was random, I was just commenting on the power of resonance. You can also shatter a glass with your voice if you can hold the frequency!

Damn, the two sources of the earthquake claim are print and I would have liked to read them. They don’t include a quote directly mentioning earthquakes in the wiki…

[EDIT] I was wrong, I missed a reference. See my reply below

At one point, while experimenting with the oscillator, he alleged it generated a resonance in several buildings, causing complaints to the police.

I believe that. Resonant frequencies have collapsed bridges

he was forced to use a sledgehammer to terminate the experiment, just as the police arrived

Sounds like a real big fish he caught there!

You fool. In this community, you’re supposed to title your posts “Protestation” and not include a description.

I kept thinking about this last night and wound up looking it up. Seems like a nuclear bomb could cause one…but only a minor one - smaller than the bomb itself.

Goes to show just how powerful an earthquake is if even our strongest explosives doesn’t come close!

Thanks, I read it before it got posted which is part of why I was kind of irked by OP. Instead of a link, they included a straw man.

Could a really big off-center motor actually cause an earthquake? It’d definitely have to be bigger than the one in the comic but…is it even possible?

That IS a pretty good system…hmm…

I had to think about it…these are the steps for the harder door:

Top right down to the top bolt, swoop counter-clockwise around it the edge.

All the way left to that same bolt, swoop again clockwise, down to the second bolt, swoop counter-clockwise around to the edge.

All the way left to the bottom bolt, another swoop, down to the bottom

For all of this, the squeegee must remain angled to fit between the gap where the doors overlap.

Proceed as normal (top to bottom) for the rest where there are no obstructions.

The other door is the inner door so no fancy moves are required. I can hold the squeegee normally.

Yep! That said, that drone flying into a plane over the wildfires is a pretty great example of why geofencing SHOULD exist. You don’t have to have malicious intent to cause destruction…I can see someone’s drone getting sucked into an engine while they’re trying to get an amazing shot of a plane taking off

It feels good to have a system, doesn’t it?

The drones a terrorist would use to attack a government building doesn’t even have GPS. They’d build racing drones, not use an off-the-shelf camera drone

If you’re getting downvoted, it’s for the charged title, preemptively playing the victim in the description, and the poorly-cropped screenshot that doesn’t say what the rest of the post is saying. Also, no link to actually read the article…which isn’t even the first article about denied coverage making the rounds on social media

Maybe you run into those clowns on Facebook and X but I have never seen a comment anything like the one you’re describing on the fediverse…

This is silly because it implies Trump wouldn’t go nuclear (figuratively or literally) if a war special military operation wasn’t going his way. His advisors might be able to convince him not to nuke Canada due to proximity but…London has 9 million people

I bought a cheap kalimba and like to just sit on the ground plucking away while my dog “listens” next to me. Just think of all the relaxing bonding time I could be skipping if I had a “generate song” button on my computer…

The Nokia Windows Phones were so good. I LOVED the polycarbonate bodies that could be smushed back if you dented it.

I think the cards are hilarious but they have something the other referenced sets (Iraqi, COVID) do not: silhouette targets on the back.

I am by no means defending their removal but cards but maybe don’t give them a plausible excuse to remove them by implying that these cards are for shooting??
