The level of just utterly batshit insanity they’ll go to just to avoid doing anything to actually help people. I mean god forbid we just improve the fucking standard of living to reduce unrest, no, as you said, they’ll start tasing children instead. Fucking literally.
Trump figured out long ago how to abuse the legal system. Fuckwad has never filed a legitimate lawsuit in his entire life, and has probably sued more people than anyone else in history.
First lettuce, now this? Are they literally poisoning healthy food now?
Just for you, Jeff, I’m pushing every single walk button I see, especially when I’m not crossing the road.
Oh like they care.
No, it’s far more crass: destroying the book makes scanning easier and faster.
Well, you don’t have to give government the authority to murder to sentence this jackass to be incarcerated in general population, as another commenter pointed out.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
With how many corporations have merged, they don’t care anymore. They’ll risk the loss because they can pivot to a different brand in their conglomerate.
On anything that matters, try and buy local. The smaller the company, the less they can ignore risks like you mention.
Or does it slow down when you look back?
So somebody told kegsbreath as a prank to see how far he’d take it? I mean, that’s now my head canon regardless of what actually happened.
Yeah, I’m so done hearing about crime reduction by making examples of people.
It’s an asinine perversion of logic to even consider that argument.
You honestly think Singapore considers themselves… “civilized”?
We can all see you starting down your nose. And we know you have no science to contribute here…
You’re the one coming up short is my point.
The original books never go further into it, but essentially yes. There’s a single bit of dialogue when Paul’s son talks about hunter seeker robots exterminating mankind. But in the prequel books, during the Butlerian jihad, just before it’s defeat the enemy ai makes copies of itself and launched them to random distant stars. And mind you, this was before faster then light travel (the discovery of which is what actually helped the humans win). But presumably Omnius returns for a reckoning.
Considering that giving cash to someone under any other circumstances is considered tacky (even gift certificates/cards are more acceptable, and that’s just cash with limits on where/how you can spend it), it is weird that tipping is so ingrained in our culture. And unsettling, to be honest…
Birds aren’t real, everyone knows that.
Right. Because their job, literally, is to surveil and harass citizens on behalf of a bunch of sociopathic parasites that rape, torture, and murder children.
And, dude, what’s the mother-fucking point of feeding a troll, such as yourself, if you’re not gonna at least be amusing?!? My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined!
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
My brain broke a little bit your statement was so stupid. So, unfortunately, I’m sure you’re 100% correct.
