Australia didn’t yet exist

I’m 43 years old and this is the first time I’ve seen an explanation of these numbers. Thank you!

And powdered milk!

We had both in my house and referred to the powdered milk as “backup milk.”

If your blade tastes cardboard, you need to study more. You should be quickly and cleanly gliding through tape, between the edges of that pulpy/corrugated paper that grips like molasses.

Hi, Dr. Nick!

Stage 2 is for some hardware techbro to invent an artisanal moebius toasting methodology, and then suddenly even most white people can’t afford to live there.

Yeah, the warp pipe Easter Egg was was sold me on this type of build. I really hope we get to see more non-minifig scale mocs that do this type of fan service. As I was putting it together I was trying to figure out what the hell I was building, and when it clicked? Oh man! I love showing the secret to guests.

On a similar note, the 25th anniversary Millennium Falcon has a few Easter eggs, but you only get to appreciate them during the build. Opening the Falcon up to take a peek isn’t an option.

I feel like people are massively downplaying the mission statement and potential impact of this organization because they’re caught up on the mental image they’ve conjured of a prisoner being forced to grow marijuana while being imprisoned for selling marijuana. That’s not at all what is happening.

As you mention, a decommissioned prison is being used as a legal grow site. The non-profit organization running the operation has the intention of using the income generated from this to free people that are were imprisoned for doing this very same thing before a legal pathway was possible.

It’s crazy to me that people were not set free once we flipped the switch and decided that selling marijuana was something that should be taxed and regulated. Yes, I get that it’s still possible to sell weed illegally if you don’t have the proper permits. I also understand that these people broke laws when that’s what the law was. But it just feels wrong. Especially considering this was a once a way for people with limited income opportunities to take control of their financial future, and now the people profiting from this are mostly people with stable finances that are looking to increase their profits.

Anyway, I applaud Last Prisoner Project and I think the idea of using a former prison has helped spread their message. I just wish there was a concise way to explain where the irony actually lies.

The commercial itself didn’t feature the shirt or any nazi imagery. It was a 30 second clip of Kanye in a dentists chair telling you to visit his website. It only aired in LA.

I don’t understand this timeline.

There’s a difference between offering opposition to outright fascism, and being the hope of the future of a political party. The bar is so low right now that I’m happy whenever I hear of someone pushing back in any amount, but AOCs passion and unrelenting sense of justice is fucking inspiring.

Even better, those doors open outward, into the only space that the wheelchairs can occupy.

Look at this guy who doesn’t live in a 400sqft apartment with only street parking.

One man’s polished is another man’s over-produced.

Clearly the sound of this album resonated more with the mainstream, but I always felt like the addition of so much distortion, both to the sampling and to the synth, started to get away from what I liked about the genre. The pure waves of the digital instruments are why I liked techno. I had analog genres of music if I wanted to listen to something dirty sounding.

I considered writing “the album that ruined Prodigy for me” but decided to stick with the more inflammatory version. 🤣

Controversial opinion: It’s the album that ruined Prodigy.

Experience and Jilted Generation are amazing and I love every track.

Their first two albums were everything I loved about the genre. As soon as Smack My Bitch Up started getting radio play, they shifted their sound to match and never looked back.

I think the point they’re trying to make is that these two large sites are just the start. Others will follow suit to the point where eventually most sites across the entire internet will be in this bifurcated situation. We’re seeing similar things with things like cookies, ads, and age verification.

What I didn’t realize about Columbo until watching it last year is that every episode is basically a full movie. There’s no connection between each episode, Columbo himself is the only recurring character. Each episode is an hour 10 to an hour 40 long. Also, it’s by FAR the best production and acting on TV in that era. It’s legitimately like almost 70 individual films.
