Yeah, I suppose the obvious stuff, sure

Guess I’m just rankled by seeing so many people making baseless claims and then telling everyone to figure it out themselves when they get called out on it, and it’s not the same as this.

Hidden panel: guy on left saying “google it yourself, don’t expect me to have to teach you anything”

Also, “Febuary“

You better start believing in huge 3D printers

…you’re in one!

He already had a circlejerk with another poster talking about how China can do it in days (because no osha, you know), and then! said it could also be done more inexpensively by reusing the steel from the collapsed bridge, that, you know, is structurally compromised by the collapse and I can’t imagine the water it’s submerged in is good for its integrity either

[insufferable pedant mode] well no, because it would be the unreal 5 engine then, wouldn’t it

There’s a documentary that may help explain this, iirc it’s called Paw Patrol

Explain all the people in the suburbs then. No shortage of brodozers there. Otherwise, why so sore?

I deleted my Reddit account and have not gone back. That said, I’m not particularly fond of Lemmy either. I’ve found… maybe? two communities here of interest that may have migrated from Reddit and they aren’t even active; and even as a socialist, the politics are tiresome and pervasive.

Aside from fascists getting the smacking around that they deserve, the one thing that’s nice is that there are far fewer cringey “yay lemmy is the best isn’t it guys” circlejerk posts now than there were back then. I don’t spend nearly as much time on here as I did on Reddit, so that’s a plus.

It’s free-based

When your customer base has main character syndrome, none of that matters, go hog wild

Sumo pose (or extra-bowlegged cowboy I guess) also works, as does upright fetal position while walking only on tips of big toes

Perfectly. Legal. Thrill.

Pragmatism and nuance are for bigots and fascists, vote third party

My wife and I have put many IKEA pieces together over the years, and she got her license at age 24 after I taught her to drive stick. We’ve been together 24 years, this coming Friday.

Similarly, my wife and I married at ages 23 and 22, respectively, just over twenty years ago. Altogether, we’ll have been by each other’s side for 24 years this Friday (a date I consider more important than our elopement anniversary) and I can’t imagine anyone else by my side on this stupid, cruel journey around the sun.

1. Isn’t “lasagna”, as we refer to it, technically a casserole made with layers of lasagne, cheese, and sauce? Not that “casserole” is a category, but I’m just being pedantic at this point, soz

2. I’ve always maintained that pizza is a tart rather than a pie

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles spreading an entirely different message nowadays, huh

I’m honestly shocked at how soon the sapient insects displaced humanity and subjugated what remained. Here’s a hint: the second digit in the year I visited is still a zero
