Oh man, you should read Aftermath: Remnants of War by Webster.
Yeet
Well, kinda…due to inheritance, it’d kinda be like the Lernaean Hydra.

There’s no way they woulda let Musk’s head hobbit exist there for so long without earning his keep somehow. Poor little kid is just repeating the same shit he’s hearing the adult-shaped ugly children around him saying.
Gordon Calhoun@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think of my 56 billion dollar plan to make Greenland a US State?11·2 months agoI think the implicit assumption is if they didn’t take the offer (“easy way”), they’d then get the “hard way,” in which the US receives the same end result, but no one in Greenland gets the million. It churns the bile in my guts that anyone on earth is even having this discussion with a modicum of seriousness. Greenland is for Greenlanders.
Gordon Calhoun@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the most cynical opinion you've heard about the jedi during the Star Wars prequels?5·2 months agoYeah, they definitely don’t come off as apolitical monks seeking enlightenment. Maybe Yoda…
Certainly arrogant and a little too aware and appreciative of their own power and what it could get them.

Gordon Calhoun@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is it so hard to hate Mr. Burns from The Simpsons?12·2 months agoEver notice how the least likable characters are the most morally intact? Except maybe Paul and Linda McCartney…they seemed to do all right for the short cameo they had. But Lisa isn’t typically scoring a lot of ‘like points’ unless she’s being uncharacteristically mean or sneaky. I suppose Maggie giving Homer a non-toxic playdoughnut was a nice gesture that endeared her to me a little more…but if it had been a real donut, well I’m not sure if the endearment would have been as deep.
I guess the Simpsons helps us cope with the darker tendencies lurking in our midbrains…and it feels kinda…nice.
But have you tried running Doom.exe yet?
That part where the constellation of cybershits all over the country suddenly went Maximum Overdrive and plowed into all the nation’s public libraries and burned all the books was pretty impactful.
It got too weird to watch after the starlink satellites started shooting laser beams to blind anyone who voted blue. I had to learn from my kids, who kept watching, about the parts showing the compulsory Neuralink implants and subsequent shock-induced enslavement.
Believe it or not, I think the Christian Science Monitor puts out good articles. I’m not religious. I’m also not in the current US conservative camp. It’s too bad it’s paywalled. But the few articles I’ve read actually seemed nicely nuanced, pretty balanced, and interesting.
So, describe the ‘american behavior’ you’ve observed so we can all bask in the glory of the depravity you’ve seen and endured. This post seems intended as a place to vent for everyone’s entertainment. I found little to no entertainment value in reading ‘Americans’ as a comment and I have a hard time empathizing with your grievance beyond an assumption you resent how generically fat, ignorant, pushy, entitled, and rude some of them stereotypically may be. Provide some juicy details, Johannes!
