Is it BlackForager? The “one of these is poison, and one is a snack” lady?

Poppy seeds do it for me too

You run into this a little bit with light fixtures too, weirdly enough. Because modern indoor lighting is descended from gas lighting, it was normal for people to upgrade old gas systems to electric by using the pipes as conduit. So now, if you need a replacement bit to fix your table lamp from Walmart, they’re measured in a mostly obsolete plumbing standard, Iron Pipe Size.

You’re one of today’s lucky 10000

Motorcycle clubs (including the outlaw clubs) like to have their location as the bottom rocker of their back patch. Nomad means they move from city to city.

If you’re not in the Mongols and you wear a Mongols patch, it’s like throwing up gang signs when you’re not in a gang. You’re going to get the wrong kind of attention very quickly and maybe wind up in the hospital over it.

Her and John Hoffman were both murdered this past June.

I dunno, did you hear about the weasel that shut down the Hadron Collider?

Yeah, I dislocated my knee in high school, couldn’t afford to go to a doctor, haven’t been able to walk right since.

but there’s only so many times you can read stuff like “getting it addressed within X hours has Y% chance of saving the testicle” before you came lol.

Dang, I wish it was that easy to come for me.

Demand royalties?

I think they just wake up from a fever dream of opulence

Ugh, I think my fever dream is bugged.

My great-grandmother turned 20 during the Great Depression, and she helped raise me. I think that’s why I’m like this too.

You just gotta get creative. What if we had a lotto system, where every day one person gets a million bucks, and fifty people get to do forced labor for the rest of their life? We wouldn’t need surveillance, we’d just have to tell them we’re watching and let the RNG do all the work instead.

I do cosplay, dollhouses, and dioramas, and peertube is pretty dead on that front.

Wendy’s does it like that, and Burger King has a little conveyor belt and the patty gets blasted with fire as it goes through.

I personally find a lot of media has pacing problems. I hate it when the main questline is supposed to be super urgent, but it just turns into a grind halfway through. Like, I’m the Chosen One who’s going to stop the looming apocalypse, but the farmer won’t help you unless you find his lost sheep first. I can’t just pay him to get a replacement sheep and get on with it, I gotta do a stupid buggy escort mission, and quite frankly, I’d rather do the dishes.

I don’t know if it’s unique to the US, but there’s a perception that “progress” is a farce that never helps as much as politicians claim. I personally think it’s because we’ve got such a long history of means-testing welfare to such a ridiculous extent, like we kick people off disability if they have more than $2k in the bank, that “free bus for everybody” just sounds like a scam, too good to be true.

I do that too, and I blame Neopets.

I mean, it’s a well crafted narrative because I’m just describing some kids I went to school with lol.

Yes, Trump ran on racism, but you’re missing the fact that the right-wing media has, since before the Civil War, wanted to convince people that brown people bad. The right has been attacking education since before I was born.

Meanwhile I’m still struggling to find good leftist material written for the average reading level. How can we fight fascism if the common person can’t even understand us?
