take one tablet by mouth

You know for a fact that instruction is there because someone tried the other options

How about another one

And based on what Marx said, likely due to an opioid overdose.

It’s interesting to see nazi flags as the people criticizing the “socialist” countries, when the nazi party called themselves the “national socialist” party. They were only slightly worse at doing the socialism part than China and ussr

The point is “Russia can’t do the bad things because America does all the bad things and Russia isn’t America”. Because America being evil and Russia being evil are mutually exclusive of course.

“Help, I’ve been bitten by a poisonous snake”

pushes up glasses “I think you’ll find that the snake is venomous, not poisonous”

Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes

To make it even worse

My brain just went to “you were trying to cross the border right? Same as us, and that thief over there”

No, that would be a cassowary

There’s also the “0.25 × 4” thing. ε is set to 0.25, and φ is set to 4. No nuance, no thought about how the economy actually works. Just make it so they can pretend they’re thinking about it how demand will change.

Ah yes, because the eastern front never happened

Given president musk owns a car manufacturer, I’m not surprised they’re going this direction

I’ve seen a musical called Rent. It’s about people in New York who are homeless/stuck in poverty around when HIV was at its peak. Honestly I don’t know much about it, I mostly saw it because a friend of mine was performing, but it’s definitely not a typical upper middle class perspective.

On those last two, watch this old ad

My personal rule is “do I know why that word is a swear word, and is that a dumb reason?”

That means Anglo-Saxon words like fuck or shit are fine. They’re swear words because of William the conqueror invading England, and making all the nobility speak Norman. Then all the peasants started to use some French words to sound more posh, so the Anglo-Saxon words became ‘less pleasant’ than the Norman words, and that meant shit, fuck, and similar words just got kicked out.

On the other hand, there are swear words I won’t use. Anything with a terrible historical use, an actually bad definition, or any religious connotation (yes, I’m religious, but I’d still keep this if I wasn’t). Example, I won’t use the word damn as a swear word, since I would never wasn’t someone to be sent to hell. No, I don’t believe that saying “damn you” will actually damn someone, but I just think it’s a swear word for a good reason.

That kea description is wrong. They are not an anti hero, they’re just a menace. Imagine the destruction of a genius toddler with wings and a knife. That’s basically a kea.

As long as they’re shorts, only showing one vague, unverifiable, third or fourth hand anecdote each.

Probably better wording is a minimum wage shouldn’t be needed

It had just been long enough that I forgot about that shit. Now you had to go and remind me.

I return the favor.
