The only fast food I enjoyed in recent memory was Pizza Hut. During some scare about MSG they removed all of the MSG and I ordered it a time or two after that and it was nearly inedible.

I suspect similar things happened with other types of fast food. I think there’s a flanderization effect happening with a lot of it. The same is definitively not the case for things like pizza in general, as I can order from my local NY-style pizza place and pizza is still just as good as it ever was.

All that is to say it wouldn’t surprise me at all if fast food was objectively shittier across a number of different metrics.

My condo has one. I use it.

They convince the rubes that you can vote in a different, more “traditional” culture than the one you currently disagree with despite not doing anything to move back to the economic conditions that made the “previous” culture possible in the first place.

It works to pull culturally regressive, economically movable morons into the coalition. But since voting out a culture is basically not possible because culture isn’t created by government in the first place, they’ll quickly learn that the PC lingo, “cancel culture”, #metooism, and “wokeness” still remain. Or they would learn that if they weren’t completely braindead and incapable of analyzing how their actions do or do not affect things.

It’s almost like they suck at making games now.

Every dumb hack comedian has mixed themselves up with Lenny Bruce.

No

It’s probably a very unpopular opinion, but I feel like Jon Stewart is a bit overrated. He was at the height of his powers in the GWB era and he helped Kerry to a hefty loss, and then followed that up by running pointless and distracting political rallies that did nothing at all to prevent the 2010 shellacking by the tea party.

He helped provide cover for Trump this election cycle by laughing at him and at times even joking that he was gonna vote for Trump. I guarantee the daily show episodes that couch potato democrats like myself used to soothe themselves during this sleep walk into fascism will age like milk.

I couldn’t even bear to watch the election night coverage him and Colbert were doing and I’m sure that it got grim as hell (similar to coverage of 2016) as the jokes started to not match the bleak reality of an upcoming second Trump term.

His lasting political advocacy efforts for things (largely outside of the media) like the 9/11 first responders and Iraqi burn pit veterans are admirable though.

It’s already popular enough to be a meme scroll substitute for Reddit so I’m good.

WUT ABOUT MEN?!??!?

You uhh, you don’t.

Shit that’s so complicated that there’s not enough red yarn in the world to connect it together.

Sounds exactly like the type of software an incompetent software engineer spits out.

Spray them down with microplastics, unnatural dyes, and hazardous chemicals.

I suspect they have their own emulators.

I mean they have old games available for new platforms and have had that for multiple generations. One of the things you get with a Nintendo online subscription is a switch catalog full of a bunch of SNES and NES games for play on the switch.

This is all just speculation. I have no idea how much it would cost for them to build new systems for every playable game in the museum.

Entirely aside from the could argument, I don’t really understand why they would do it.

Your body is going to fail eventually, so you might as well stop brushing your teeth and start drinking scotch at breakfast. /s

Them being the original creator of the products doesn’t necessarily imply that they still have running production processes for every product that they ever made.

Nope, it is.

In a way it’s kinda cool though. Feels more like a community.

Hulu is treating me with impunity when I reported errors with their apps. Hulu, an eminently cancelable service that a lot of people never paid for in the first place.

Sail the seven seas, friends. These people deserve despondency.

The keyboard warriors instantly became experts on labor negotiations /s, even though they seemingly haven’t had the elementary realization that demands are movable in a negotiation, and you don’t negotiate by saying “oh, I actually make quite enough money compared to poor workers in Alabama with no union representation and I love the current benefits thank you kindly, sir”.
