I am a time-traveling dolphin. An entity made of giant balls gave me the ability to breathe underwater, but this ability was recently stolen from me by aliens.

Sometimes I turn into a bird.

  • I don't like the phrase. It just feels bad, idk. If she put in effort to wear nice underwear for you, its probably one of many little details she put into your date. Idk. I'm kind of a prude.

    It also kind of feels like something a dudebro might say later after he pressured his drunk date into something she didn't want to do.

  • how do i stop the mind goblins

    how do i. STOP the mind goblins

    hhhhhhhhhhh

  • It's also untrue.

    Watch: Fuck

  • Yup

    Jump
  • The shape of the dragon's head also changes in panel 4 in the OP vs panel 1. Its very... strange.

    Something feels off about this comic.

  • Much appreciated. Haven't found any time to read anything, regrettably, but I have bookmarked your lists!

  • Part of the sign up process I went through was to copy a line from something Marx wrote (can't remember now I'm a bad communist) to be approved for an account.

    Maybe it wasn't like that in the past but it was made clear in the sign up processs that the admins are ML communists and run their instance with those beliefs informing their moderation decisions.

  • He said, as he replied to everyone in the thread that he did not agree with.

  • Thank you for the thorough answer, this is what I was looking for.

  • Where do you draw the line?

    I'm asking if its good or if its edgelord shovelware.

    Have you played it?

  • So you're saying this game is a work of art that will endure the ages? Worthy of hundreds of years of praise?

  • Horses, a first-person psychological horror adventure about "the burden of familial trauma and puritan values, the dynamics of totalitarian power, and the ethics of personal responsibility" set on a ranch where nude human beings in horse masks are treated as livestock.

    Is this just a game for edgelords or is there something compelling under that mess of a description?

    Edit: We don't have to pretend every game is art - there's crap out there. I'm asking if anybody thinks this thing has redeeming qualities based on actual information about the game, not hypotheticals.

  • If you experience consequences after the D u should see a doctor

  • Yeah but it seems they are being rented by people in plain clothes, as apparently several companies are already trying to refuse.

    Seems to me (non-lawyer) like they can put out a form like "Are you renting this vehicle on behalf of a federal agency, or to accomplish work for a federal agency Y/N" and if the ICE agents lie on the form, the rental company can now sue the government for fraud. I imagine the individual ICE agent would also be in breach of contract or something.

    I know someone who works for a federal agency (DOI, not DOJ/DOD) and they rent cars on behalf of the government frequently when they need to travel to accomplish their work (or they used to, in the before times). But they're like, doing normal, non-reprehensible things with the car... not filling it up with detainees.

    Why can’t they just pull over the vehicle, impound it, and have everything happen like it would with anyone else?

    They can do both, and I imagine they probably will.

  • he's still training, IT forgot to get him his wizard staff account enabled

  • Idk what you mean "no significant features". I definitely needed AI integration in notepad.exe.

  • You don't need childcare if you're childless

    Childless person here. My partner and I had no ability to count on our families for childcare, or more basic things. Our choice to not have children was more about our (tenuous) mental health and lack of emotional support from family, but economics played a part too.

    You are lucky to have support from someone who has good health and the ability to watch your kids (they are retired? None of my family can afford that)

    Children aren't some sort of luxury. Our poverty line should allow for people to afford children.

    I don't agree with all of this guy's numbers but you absolutely should include the cost of children in the poverty line.

  • Running a scam center and using human trafficking to staff the place is evil. So, she's a criminal who lied about where she was born.

    The headline says she's also a spy, but there's nothing in the article body linking her to the Chinese government. Whats up with that? Is she actually a spy or just some sort of Chinese gangster?

  • Friend, the totals are percentages, not absolute counts

  • This poll annoyed me so much I googled it. It's just a really shitty poll. There is no reason to believe the 5 listed jobs is a subset of the answers. This is an infographic summarizing a single question from a survey that seems to be commissioned by LEGO.

    Article from the "Harris Poll"

    I couldn't find like, an academic paper describing the poll. There's no methodology for it I can find. It's just some corporate fluff piece, frankly.

    So I guess 3% if these are the only 3 countries included

    Yep, only 3 countries. This is just a trash poll.
