As a guy with long hair, I’ve learned to just roll my eyes at the gendering of hair products. The all in one shit is made with the assumption that it’s being used on short hair that’ll be chopped off in a few months max, so it doesn’t need to preserve anything. Long hair has to last years.

I don’t think people are nasty enough to him. Until he’s a fucking hermit, too ashamed to show his face in public again because he knows everyone despises him, we need to be nastier.

And RFK wants to send you to a gulag “wellness farm” for it.

Now that we have a president threatening to invade NATO members, we’re about to have the nuclear threat back.

Perfect malicious compliance opportunity: the price tag stays the same, but add an itemized Trump Tax for the difference.

Capitalism in its current form has existed for the last 2% of human civilization. 5% if you count mercantilism as a form of capitalism. For the vast majority of history, people owned their own means of production.

Modi is just as much of a fascist pig.

Even the most oppressive tyrants in history understood the concept of bread and circuses. Most people will stay complacent when their fundamental rights are being taken away as long as they have their distractions. Taking away the distractions is something you only do after you’ve fully consolidated your power. They’re so obsessed with projecting an aura of oppressiveness that they’ve forgotten how to hold power.

That’s a bit of a false dilemma though. The two options aren’t “it’s a magical elixir with absolutely no downsides” and “people deserve to be locked in a cage and have their life ruined for possessing it”. Plenty of legal things can cause harm. 35% of people are lactose intolerant, do we ban dairy?

Hell, you can give away 990 million of it, buy a house, put what’s left in a high yield savings account, and live comfortably on the interest alone for the rest of your life.

The fact that Windows hides file extensions by default is just absolute insanity to me.

+84 doesn’t mean an increase of 84 percentage points, it means 92% approval, 8% disapproval.

Is there anything morally different between pretending to be ICE to break into people’s homes to rob them and actually being ICE and breaking into people’s homes to rob them?

Only suspected to be. Bukele himself concedes a roughly 20% error rate and it’s probably much worse than that.

“Oh but we used to live in fear of gangs!” You still do, you just traded one gang for a different, state-sanctioned one.

Better do 3 more to make it a nice even 20.

How exactly do you define advertising? An overly broad definition would forbid, for example, a dentist from putting a sign in front of their office saying they’re a dentist.

Maybe they shouldn’t be throwing out sieg heils and getting swastika tattoos if they don’t want to be called Nazis.

15 year generations don’t really make sense though, the whole concept of a generation is that they’re the previous generation’s kids.

You have one of each number except 7, and you’re deliberately avoiding doubles and runs of consecutive numbers. Human attempts at randomness tend to be very idealized in that way, and as a result, less random.
