One of the pod jons went on survivor and was voted out first lol

Also he did that in the middle of Bidens campaign, just to show how serious they are about dem electoral politics

Where’s my ancient roman gimp who lives off my hospitality

Its called 15 years of nerdfighteria so you burn out those brain nodes

Panacea was diet sprite mixed with franks hot sauce, no one ever thought to combine em but it was stumbled upon by one genius healer - gas station cookie monster pj hot chip girl

The children of kali in Ministry for the Future spiked the American beef supply with BSE and in the novel, it didnt slow down American consumption of meat meaningfully. If cattle got infected, it would also probably not stop American cattle farmers or even end consumers except for pricing people out.

The alternative still exists in peoples labour and, I suppose not too uncommon for the tech cycle, the alternative can still be superior. Plus the cycle here happened fast enough that all the compsci people can still do their software engineering coding stuff, its the same people.

Happy pride!

Losing matt, losing virgil less so but still, losing 2020, the pandemic, really put a nail in the chapo project in terms of it being a political thing. The hope, bad fruitless as it was even at the time, was by listening to the podcasts and voting that would be enough to finally change something. And chapo bought into itself as that project - they joked about it and were self effacing but they thought maybe they could be staffers in a Bernie admin. Which means it definitely hurt when everything fell apart as stupidly as it did. Almost a perfect circle from Hillary losing to Trump.

The zbiotics guys started advertising on Cody’s news showdy?

Watched Obsession! Good horror movie. I never went through what Bear did one to one, but some of it was close and some of it mightve been pulled from my own life (minus supernatural bs). Little triggering

Since one of you could be driving or minding the other, its probably better if you didnt have it at the same time

Its weird to explain, its “cleaner”? They probably clean their lines much better in Dublin proper and obviously at St James Gate. It is much creamier and softer too. Who knows how much the local river impacts taste too - plus it doesnt sit in cans or kegs for long. Outside of Dublin, it did taste the same in Ireland as anywhere else in the world. And rhe actual brewery proper was another tier above that too.

I like Guinness, but its all basically the same outside Dublin and outside St James Gate especially to me. Not quite as good, I did have some NA stuff once to cook with! I think the etoh might help do something in the recipes but… the taste wasnt far off either.

Gorbachev wrote his own memoirs about it, which is nice as a primary source. But I dont exactly trust his own reasoning lol

I do genuinely want to read a Marxist analysis of how the Soviet Union fell and the Soviet project ended up fizzling out. Im open to “well the CIA did it” but its a little trite and I suspect there’s much more to it than the evil Americans merely tricked everyone. Or Gorbachev was uniquely evil, cause maybe he was or wasnt but no one person can destroy a system.

Ive read a bunch of partial analysis, but never like a book just about the 80s to 90s USSR - and not some imperialist bourgeois criticism either, like an honest Marxist analysis.

Go back to the sea!!! There’s nothing out here but mortgages and iphones!!!

Yeah its a fun movie!

It remains so funny to me that one of the reasons adhd meds are so tightly controlled is that theyre considered highly addictive, yet people with adhd apparently routinely forget to take em lol

DNC 2024 autopsy is out, they suppressed it because it was bad. Was hoping it said something like “Kamala lost because of Gaza” but it looks like it was suppressed because it was really shitty. The conclusions seem to be: keep doing what they were doing but louder. They have done that since at least 2016, so no material reality

I will take one accord please
