Yeah, OP might just be a dumbass.

I was about to say …

Vox can speak for itself. Big sections of the public knew they were being sold a bill of goods.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

Lemmy is an anus of a platform filled with lunatics.

Given that you think Putin is promising people immortality, I doubt it.

I’m not entirely certain you’re thinking straight. You’re coming off a little unhinged.

Age and maturity are not the same thing.

Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.

Yeah, in a nutshell…

It is, but teenagers and the emotionally stunted fall into it so they can feel superior.

It’s basically a diet conspiracy theory. It lets adherents think they’re special and have figured something out that regular people didn’t. That’s a lot more comforting than realizing they’re just regular people because they aren’t mature enough to see obscurity as a good thing.

I heard about her video on fucking NPR. Seriously.

All Things Considered did a little piece talking about how long form video essays are becoming more popular, but they concluded by saying that she did a bang-up job and had some good insights.

It’s not a standing ovation, but having NPR run a story on your video and compliment your coverage is pretty damn skippy.

Sounds like something a squirrel fighter would say.

It’s technically possible to do that after committing any crime, but under super specific circumstances and it’s a far cry from a “get out of jail free” card.

If you’re legitimately, actually insane when you commit a crime you’ll get sent to a mental hospital instead of prison. The catch is that the hospital will only release you if you’re mentally healthy. That can mean that a person who uses the insanity plea may spend more time in the hospital than they would have in prison.

So for those who don’t know, “waste paper” had a very different meaning in the past.

Back before wood pulp, paper was super expensive. Like so expensive you’d fold your letter up and seal that rather than use an envelope. If you had to jot down a note, like a shopping list before going into town you’d cut it off of a larger piece of paper to save money. Seriously, a lot of historic documents are weirdly small because they were being cut down from the standard sizes.

The exception to this was “waste paper”. It was small scraps that were offcuts from the paper mill. These would frequently be bound into small, affordable books that could be carried in a pocket. These were ideal for small, mundane writing like notes and lists.

This shop is advertising that they carry these small books.

Proof that if a system or technology exists, nerds will try to run Doom on it.

Pepsi and Coke are the same thing!

Wake up, sheeple!

Psh, that’s nothing! Todd Howard can give us sixteen times the detail!

If you believe this, you need to start hanging out with better people.

“Approved name list”? What the actual fuck?

“Rage bait with an anti-US agenda” describes a lot of shit on Lemmy.

Sure it does!

Most of the time there are four of them, but it draws them.
