Poor old Jim’s white as a ghost
He’s found the answer that we lost
We’re all weeping now, weeping because
There ain’t nothing we can do to protect you
Poor old Jim’s white as a ghost

We’re all weeping now, weeping because
There ain’t nothing we can do to protect you
No better band to go to for truly heart wrenching songs.
Although I would have to say a better selection:
Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms
Cheap sex and sad films
Help me get where I belong
If you guys haven’t seen the movie I Origins, you should watch it. That song plays as the outro and it’s amazing. Don’t watch any trailers though, it completely ruins the film
Man. My friend was a huge Pearl Jam fan back in the day. He would sing this song every time we went out to any place doing karaoke. I got my heart absolutely torn apart once, and he really helped me through it. When I just didn’t want to be alone he was down for me to come by every night and we’d sit in his garage and drink beers and smoke and talk, and he played me this song—now, I grew up on Pearl Jam in the 90s. Loved them. But I hadn’t kept listening to them.
But one night when I was avoiding being alone with my thoughts and he was there for me, he told me I needed to listen to that song again. He played it and Jesus Christ, man. I never felt so personally seen by a song I’d known my whole life.
Fuck the generational war. The class war is real and it’s one sided, it’s basically a class genocide.
Who said representatives
I want to see a closer photo of the calico in the bottom left corner of the first pic. Looks like she’s got raccoon eye spots
Yeah, it is absolutely crazy how much the tide has shifted with trump’s reelection. These so-called “woke” companies (it was always performative, but they performed for the more just side) have all turned 180 and dropped to their knees to kiss the ring.
And this is because of the very real feeling that trump will abuse his power and unconstitutionally stay in office. The guardrails seem to have come down, and these fuckers are rushing to get on the fascist’s good side.
That should alarm everyone, so I’ll say it again: these companies are positioning themselves on the side of fascism because they don’t think we can stop them anymore. They are making business decisions that bolster fascists because there’s a fuckin dollar in it.
With the power of these fucking megacorps behind the fascist movement, it’s like sticking a rocket engine on its ass.
Plenty of creators I watch have links instead of coupon codes. So it’s not just broadly one way
Maybe I’m in the minority here, but maybe they should release it. So we can really see what these nameless, faceless data giants are doing. Data brokers already list our home address, known affiliations, places of work, etc. that’s our personal info already out and being traded. Leak the shit. Let’s see what the 1,000th previously unknown company trading in private data is doing.
Well, most of the Spanish speaking world calls Barcelona the same way we call it. With slightly different inflection, but only the castellanos have the “Spanish lisp.” Which derived from some king who had a lisp, if I’m remembering that correctly? So other Spanish speaking people—most of them, in fact, don’t call it “barth-elona.”
I learned Spanish in Spain, so I started speaking in that lispy Spanish. But as I continued to get way more fluent, living in the other parts of the Spanish speaking world, my accent changed.
I dunno. Because when creators are pushing those affiliate links, they’re offering discounts. That’s why their users go there. And if honey was giving them a bigger discount, I’m sure that’s not illegal. But if it was just poaching the 10% 94 whatever the creator was already offering, giving them still 10%, but taking that “last click” because it checked?
Who knows, the company is bigger and has PayPal at its back. So might makes right in US law. I’m sure that will be the outcome. But I’ve been surprised before.
“People can connect with anything. That’s why I can pick up this pencil, tell you its name is Steve, do this. * breaks * And part of you dies, just a little bit inside.”
I felt bad for the phlegm. I ship phlegm and phlembelina.
I also love his friend’s just awe at the loogie. I miss getting psyched over how big a loogie is.
So RDR2O is good? I love RDR2, and I’ve played the campaign to death. But I tried online and found it…meh. Maybe I didn’t invest in it and I was looking for a more cohesive story or maybe a helping hand in getting my toes wet, but it just felt like there was nothing novel or interesting to do. I’m sure playing with someone makes it a lot more fun. I was really looking for more of the campaign. That’s not what it is.
I mean, factoring in advertising costs and shit, especially with a huge advertising push, could make that total number rise dramatically. And when you actually have the government pumping you full of money, you find ways to spend it. When other games end up asking themselves if they can afford to ____ because the timeline is _____, this kind of production gets to say, “do it. Hire more people.” And it doesn’t have to involve crunch.
I mean, is it saving users money though? It’s not, the charge is that it’s just taking other affiliate code out of the link and replacing it with its own. And just doing it to small creators? I don’t know that much about it, maybe that last part isn’t true. But it’s not saving them money that’s the problem, but replacing affiliate links with their own. And they’re saying that it’s just that they were the “last click,” even if it was from an affiliate site. Meaning they probably put it in their code somewhere to briefly load honey looking for “deals,” meaning they were the last one to redirect the click and then they get the money.
Will be interesting to see how they were doing it.
I found indisputable proof of this happening.
We were using Google maps, driving in a production van. We were talking about the song “Gasolina” by daddy yankee. The person whose phone it was did not speak Spanish. Moments later we were being served suggestions to stop at “estaciones de gasolina”
That’s actually the entire joke of the comic, that he had her cliff notes in his jeans. He’s trying to explain “I was just supplementing my reading and understanding” when she cut him off and walked out for reading her cliff notes in the first place
Fourth: not jumping up out of bed early, not because we’re hungover, but because it’s a holiday and an excuse to relax—we didn’t even drink last night, nor go out. We were up until 2, but just hanging out at home.
Fifth: coke heads
Sixth: people who fell asleep at 11p and woke up and acted like today is any other day
Seventh: people who were forced to continue working and had to go to work
…point is, I think there are maybe a few more than two types of people lol
Dude. If it turned out to be a new mega-season of Punk’d where Ashton Punk’d all of us for the last…like…15 years, starting with the 2010 midterms? Oh man. I guess that’d also explain where Ashton has been all this time.
How dare you
