Well, cats do behave suspiciously like a non-solid

That’s far smaller than I expected. I also don’t imagine it will be cheap. If they manage to make it less than $100,000 then I’ll be baffled. Less than $500,000 and I’ll be excited for the possibilities in my lifetime.

Legit question. Can the ring influence targeting computers over long distances? Or modern LLMs?

“It’s [current year] blazing saddles.”

“It’s Martian manhunter but demon in a bottle”

“It’s Dracula, but from Dracula’s perspective.”

They’re interesting premises and easily understood. I can’t knock smith for choosing them. You never know what’ll end up on the editor’s floor. There might have been a better cut somewhere in there

Had I been raped as an infant by an immortal who would eventually go on to become an avid twitter user, I wouldn’t kill millions of people, but I would certainly think about it.

That’s where I settled as well. “Change the world” level money for, at most, a few hundred hours of work. Probably closer to a dozen, if that. You’d be a fool to pass it up

Ah, I gotcha now. Yeah, it’s definitely just goatse+1 penis. The spout and sink aren’t even reminiscent of any plumbing I’ve ever seen.

My favorite opener for a while was “would you let bill gates have sex with you whenever he chose, for a full year, for a billion dollars?” It’s a question that got people going.

I knew I could respect anyone who replied affirmatively or questioned why I decided to start the conversation that way. These were reasonable folks who held an understanding of the vastness of a billion dollars, or saw how unsettling I or my question were.

The rare few were revolted by the premise. Either replying homophobically or in disgust at gates himself. These people were usually either not too bright or trying to put on a facade, in one respect or another.

Which is to say, discarding the idea of gaining a large sum of money is just not something that most reasonable people do. And many people view him less as a person and more as a portal to his treasury, until they’re forced to think about him. I agree with you

I mean, it’s legit in that the sticker exists. Whether there was an uproar over the sticker’s usage, which I believe seems unlikely, I smell something fishy.

The modern internet is such a weird place. A gypsy market within a fully stocked library that also houses a compendium of games. I don’t love it.

After searching around for a bit, and finding only a single Etsy listing for this sticker, I’ve come to the conclusion that this is an ad for that overpriced sticker.

I don’t mean to be a pessimist, but Tesla doesn’t care about car sales. Their chief moneymaker is selling Tesla tokens to Wall Street, which do not correlate with Tesla’s company performance in any meaningful way.

Could you imagine having to take your thousand dollar fursuit head to a shop for repairs after only a few outings? I’d be pissed.

It only just struck me. The federal government is currently headed by several “where is Ja Rule” level incompetents. Enough of the funny, I really, really want to go back to the boring government.

We are killing less. And overwhelmingly so. If you don’t count faceless, recontectualized packaged cow, chicken, and pig meat. We’re also still pretty good about keeping our close group alive, but medicine men, insurance, and numbers over 100 are a strictly cultural practice not cemented within our genetic memory in any helpful way, so society as a whole suffers under the burden of our limited empathy.

You can also get into the economics of governance to get a good look at what it would mean to move the systems in place enough to reach the sort of universal socioeconomic safety that you’d personally find acceptable. I’m a fan of Europe’s deal… up to a point.

I really don’t mean to cut things off, but the scope of this conversation would necessarily reach so incredibly wide that I don’t believe I can keep your attention or mine for a dozen pages of philosophy, biology, anthropology, history, psychology, and economics. In short, I, personally, can only expect people to fit neatly into a groove so long as it isn’t too far removed from the one we dug a hundred thousand years ago. Certain people have done too much to remove themselves, and to some degree us, from personal responsibility in the US to do anything but set fire to what we have.

I think you might have some ontologically incongruous standards. We are crazy apes. You can take the guns away, but the murder will persist for millennia, if not gene edited out. Banning the guns and lead bullets is more likely to work than expecting humanity to spontaneously diverge from its evolutionary roots as a bang bus murder ape

Fully tucked goat loaf sitting atop the feeder. Are goats cats??

The one weird thing that everyone seems to just accept is smart tvs with ads. I use my smart tv for many things, but disconnected from the internet and hooked into a little entertainment Linux machine that does all the processing. I can’t fathom taking the raw experience.
