All you dumb flatlanders had to do was build on the hills. They’re right fuckin there and none of you ever think to do it.

That Mariah Carey Christmas song every single retail worker hates

As a welder, much of my work straddles the line between art and mass production. I’ve made many, many beautiful welds that will never been seen by another person for at least the next 20 years, if ever. Some of the best that come to mind are stainless steel welds on industrial equipment that get buried under paint or insulation. I spent 3 years welding parts for US battleships and Navy cruisers as well as the occasional weird airforce part. Most of those welds will never been seen by living people after leaving my old shop.

You can’t argue that 40k panders to the LGBT crowd because fuckin obviously if you’ve ever even looked at a 40k title, but you also can’t really argue that 40k isn’t at least a little sexual.

You got ratlings, pretty much everything slaanesh, aeldari waifus, and the entire Ciaphas Cain series. And while yeah, you don’t exactly get steamy love triangles in mainline 40k lore, you also have callidus assassin’s and sisters of silence popping up all the damn time. Sex isn’t the focus (mostly. Looking at you ciaphas) but it’s certainly present in the setting.

So toasting a sammich is cooking, but making the sammich isn’t?

Holy shit I got a maggoty cum fart reply. I feel like I’ve met a celebrity

Lemmy was a liquid coke man. With some jack Daniel’s in there.

Welder here. Aluminum oxide inhalation is correlated with an increased risk for alzheimers, not cancer. Hexavalent chromium is a carcinogen, and that comes from heating up stainless steels. So you are actively replacing a relatively non toxic oxide with the potential for an actually toxic carcinogenic gaseous metal, assuming your pocket knife is some sort of stainless steel (statistically very likely).

Your math isn’t mathing. He isn’t talking rank and file Republicans. He’s just talking about their leadership and policymakers. That’s totally different. Mr Trump can be friends with Epstein all day long and that couldn’t possibly reflect poorly on the rest of the republican party. He’s only their elected nominee for president.

Get your “not all men” horseshit out of here.

Persons is a set of individuals while people generally implies a group. “Those people” as a phrase carries negative connotations because of its use by racists pretending to be not quite as racist.

You can use them interchangeably as long as you’re trying to imply the person’s you are referring to are linked or similar in some way.

This has always struck me as a dumb argument. Before “intellectual property” innovation was just technological advancement. Patenting is just enabling punishment against actual innovators. I am a welder. I make things. If I set out to make a stove, I don’t give a shit who patented what fuel distribution system or air intake methodology, I’m gonna make a damn stove. The entire concept of being able to exclusively “own” a design or concept is reductive to human learning as a whole.

Do the Justice Friends from Dexter’s Lab count?

Abolish police entirely and mobilize the NG into law enforcement. The rules of engagement alone is miles better than the policy shit police forces have now, and cops are all already carrying or being supplied with military gear anyways. If we already have a militarized police force, why not cut out the middle man and turn our actual military into the police force?

Satire =/= trolling

As a Californian, do not look to our state for police reform. IMO the best example is Colorado removing qualified immunity. Discipline doesn’t work and the system refuses to jail their own, so you gotta hit them financially. Bankrupting shitty little town police forces either forces reform or kicks authority up to the state, which is more regimented in its regulation. Either way it’s putting bad cops out of a job.

Honestly legal immunity needs to go as a concept. It might be annoying for judges to fight off lawsuits, but fuckem. They’re paid damn well and they have the time. Judges are public servants, not public sovereigns. Some of them need to be reminded of this fact, and lawsuits are a good way of opening crusty conservative eyes. And the entire civil suit system needs to be simplified into plain English so that the average citizen can use it. This legalese fuckery was designed from the start to disadvantage uneducated people. That’s downright un-American. The ruling class has forgotten that this is the land of the free, not the land of the fee.

You have sub quality drug dealers. My dude flips cars on the side of his hustle so he always has something nice to drive. He’s a fan of rare models, so his latest is a Saab something or other with all the goodies including 4wd and a ls9 under the hood.

Other than that he’s got a nice little house in the burbs. Nothing big or fancy. Just a normal 2 bedroom place with a small yard.

See, that’s cocaine fuelled Hollywood done right.

What the question is asking is “what’s the most 90s movie of all time” and the answer can only be Kazaam, starring Shaquille O’Neil himself, and the Mars corporation products.

It’s exactly as peak 90s as Space Jam without any of the charm or personality, which makes Kazaam precisely as soulless as that entire decade. It’s perfect

Ur a bean

I’ll trade you. I’ll read ur book if you check out the ender quintet, or at least speaker of the dead. The hierarchy of foreignness is a concept that has REALLY stuck with me. Also pequininos are bros.

It’s all neuron activation. Always has been.
