I’m fine with their platform and I do go to their events now and then, so any shade I throw is dappled with some sunshine.

My main beef is they call themselves a ‘party’ and that means getting candidates elected. If that isn’t your goal, you aren’t a political party.

My feeling has been that they waste the energy of a lot of early adopters and teach them means of political engagement that render them ineffective.

PSL is not even a real political party. They do not get anyone elected and they have rarely ever even had candidates. They are much too concerned about some strange sort of ideological purity.

It is a weird club for people who enjoy having protests to go to on the regular. Poorly attended protests usually, but they do get to talk amongst themselves about how much better things will be after a revolution they take no effective steps toward fomenting.

I suspect the imagine they are in the vanguard of something, but it has been over 80 years since they were founded.

Poseurs, Simps and Losers.

In cybersecurity, this is called red-hat or red-team work. Maybe the search terms will help you find what you need.

A small knife? A hand-held stabby thingy.

Is this some sort of revenge porn for birds?

In addition this was a proof of concept. Collection adds a great deal of mechanical complexity and the funders of the project may not have cared about that.

Their tech demo was clearing a path for a patrician lady to walk without besmirching the hem of her dress.

I worked for a company that provided a car (incidentally a ‘benefit’ I will refuse in any future scenario).

They explicitly told us we had to back in to our parking spots whenever possible. They implied that some data they had showed it reduced accidents.

I once knew a Thai woman named Siri Alexa. Seriously, she is about 65 and is quite tired of the jokes.

I’m just guessing, but it looks like the way the bristles are arranged It would tend to throw the poop to one side at least perhaps toward a gutter?

“The most notable Fatberg is Lord Eustace Fatberg IV. Lord Eustace had no hobbies as he was a non-sentient amalgam of human waste, wet wipes and fat lodged in a sewer.”

Fascism is capitalism unmasked.

If a person can moderate, I would call it a bad habit and not an addiction. To me, the inability to moderate is what makes it an addiction in the first place.

It won’t work on all people, but it will work for the right people!

I mean, if a person has the urge to juggle in public, it means they want to be seen and maybe connect with randos over it.

That’s wholesome AF

Medical miracle AND a manmade horror beyond my comprehension.

Everybody Wangchuck tonight, I guess?

Fuck Target. Gone the way of K-mart by 2027, hopefully.

Yes, it is.

Do it anyway.

Yeah it seems to be more of a Mexican-American thing. Also it has become sort of a Hallmark Holiday in the US, meaning the significance is amplified by marketing.

I mean the weather is usually beautiful on May 5, so any excuse to have a party.

This is it. You die and you are gone, gone, gone. Make every day count and don’t waste time bargaining with an imaginary god for a preferred place in her cinematic universe.

It’s not grim. It’s extremely freeing. ‘Now’ is all there is.
