  • Maybe off topic, but perhaps Cookie Monster will back me up:

    Grandma's house might have Limp Bizkit lyrics displayed in it if Etsy is any indicator. I feel old. I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.

  • Doctor: "We just got the test results back, and, uh, I don't know how to say this, so I'll just come out with it: it's a Tesla. I'm so sorry. Just know that you're not alone. You have many options, and we're going to do anything we can to help you. I won't sugar coat it, though. The chances of it coming out without a terminal defect are very low. Even if it survives, it'll never be self-driving. It will struggle with various mechanical, hardware, and software problems for its life, which will be short. Here are some resources to help you decide what you want to do. I don't want to rush you, but you probably only have a few weeks before the CEO gets an injunction, forcing you to own it. Go take some time to process this and call us when you make a decision."

  • Roy: Weirdest thing just happened… (notices the fire) FIRE!!!

    Moss: I’ve sent an email. It’s fine.

    Roy: An email?! It’s a fire! Where’s… Where’s the extinguisher?

    (Moss points out that the extinguisher is also on fire!)

    Roy: How?!

    Moss: Made in Britain!

  • You're right. They weren't trafficked. It used to be acceptable de jure to just kill them here up until the late 1800s and de facto into at least the 1950s.

    I agree this is a backslide from the civil rights advancements of the latter half of the 20th century.

    It's pretty normal if you draw a line connecting civil rights from 1776 to 2025. The USA absolutely still exists, and among them are the descendants of the people who cheered on presidents like Andrew Jackson. It's been an authoritarian regime for most people. We just got a nice little break sometime after 1960. The current kerfuffle is about the middle class (part of the working class) potentially getting sucked into the oppression. I don't mean this in a hopeless way. I believe the US can pull it together and restore the national spirit that once told monarchists that they can take their authoritarianism and shove it, but it absolutely needs to include any American this time, not just the ownership class.
