Have you ever woke up and felt like garbage despite not doing anything diabolical the previous night (drinking etc)? And you wondered why you felt like shit?

The answer may surprise you

She, famously, has no idea how humans live. She is culturally distinct from the Europeans on the coast.

She has more in common with the fish that she speaks to. She’s basically a magic dolphin.

Meanwhile, the people in the OP image are humans (to my knowledge, I’m not a nerd). Humans who have lived in the human world with human pasts full of human culture which give context to their characterization. I’m sure their background stories matter to their fans.

Nobody argues about what color the scales on Ariel’s tail should be.

Sure but she didn’t, she’s not in the meme I’m critiqueing. I wouldn’t have that complaint about that situation. I’d have other complaints, if I wasn’t completely drowned in a bottle or something

George Floyd and Trayvon Martin were ordinary citizens living their lives, whose deaths were linked to (and probably caused by) oppression and racism. They never wanted national attention, certainly not for this.

Kirk was a propagandist whose speech contributed to the environment of political divisiveness, bigotry and intolerance. He was a public figure who thrived on the controversy caused by his hateful speech.

I can’t upvote this meme, it feels like false equivalence (I agree with the sentiment, though, it just… they don’t care if they’re being hypocritical. That’s their game).

the only good Adam Sandler movie is uncut gems

its a good movie, he is cast perfectly, and he gets punched in the face

I bought a refirb Chromebook with an Intel CPU for $150 and put Debian on it.

Its a piece of shit, but I feel like a technology racoon. Its also lightweight. I do my homework on it.

Speakers don’t work tho, but it’s OK thats what headphones are for.

You could just go cheap until u find something perfect.

one time the state of Indiana almost made pi equal to 3.2. This is the dumb shit that happens when you aren’t introduced to these topics in school. Please don’t return us to dark times.

not real

It’s from a satire website that is a decade old

In a poly relationship with n members, there will be 2^n - n - 1 interpersonal relationships in play.

This is the cardinality of the power set of n, minus the number of singleton sets and the empty set.

Thought i would mention it, just in case you needed a quick way to calculate the number of relationships in ur polycule for ur therapist.

Horses aren’t real, but if they were I’d want them to get radiation poisoning

pressured speech?

Do you not charge it when you sleep? I don’t even have to charge mine every day because it’s pretty new and I’m barely on it. And I use GrapheneOS so it’s debloated.

I have to sign in to 2-5 programs to complete service for customers

I use shared terminals so I have to sign out when I am done

Each task takes about 3-4 minutes of computer work, feels like most of my time spent is typing in a 15 character password in 2-5 programs. I do this all day, 8hr shift, graveyards.

I just change a single digit number on this password when the 90 day rotation happens. Typing it in incorrectly 3 times gets me locked out, a call to IT. I work for tips, no time for that. My work environment is distracting, noisy and stressful, so even if I wanted to use “best practices” in choosing passwords, I really shouldn’t.

Management refuses to replace keyboards that aren’t in good repair. Several have keys that stick.

I type in a 15-char password probably 100+ times a day.

my phone is dead for 2fa

Lmao skill issue

I had this problem with Pearson. I got around it by making sure my bowser (librewolf) reported windows as my user agent. This was last semester for an online intro level course, ymmv

Edit: I see your other posts about how its not blocking access… Tbh I don’t remember checking, I just remember checking my browser settings haha. Guess I didn’t have to bother.

I do believe that in order to achieve welfare/prosperity, not all the people have to work. And I do believe that there are more important things in life than working. I’d love to be a stay at home dad, but I can’t.

Being a stay at home dad is work. Raising children is necessary work that capitalism requires, because it requires laborers. We have engineered a system in which this work is uncompensated, and if you gender this work, it causes gendered oppression.

I will also point out that in America we have decided that unless you have a “job”, society has decided that you pretty much don’t deserve health care. Anyone who chooses a life of domestic labor in America puts themselves in a position where they are financially dependent on their spouse and their spouse’s employment status. It doesn’t have to be this way. We have forged these chains.

Whether doubling the workforce is a good thing - that I’d keep up for a debate.

If we had more workers, it could be that we wouldn’t need those workers to work as long. Earlier retirement, shorter work weeks, whatever. The issue is not the size of the work force, the issue is what is chosen to be done with it.

Are you trying to imply doubling the available workforce is not good? Its usually a good thing. While their motivations are cynical, those leaders are doing good.

…or are you trying to imply that keeping women out of the traditional work force (by only allowing them to work unpaid in the home in domestic servitude, labor that capital does not value) increases the value of male labor through scarcity, which would be preferred?

Sorry that second question kind of reads as an attack. A shitty coworker of mine said that to me unironically and tried to play it off as a joke when I pushed back.

Ok… but is the picture art??? I don’t think anyone would try to argue it is. Miyazaki was specifically talking about how no algorithm can produce art, and I agree.

What makes this screenshot funny is the human element, the performance! It’s all ridiculous.

I know right? Have any of these posters met a baby? They’re too short for this.

In addition to the replies you got already, discord has screen sharing/streaming. An experience kind of like zoom (I don’t use it and dont see the appeal but maybe someone who does can elaborate more. My partner uses this feature sometimes).
