Oh cool I’d been considering bluesky for lurking

I’ll care when they’re Dvorak phones /s

Wow I didn’t realize how much I missed the hobbydrama subreddit, one of the goat communities.

Also yeah, that’s very accurate but also it’s worthwhile to understand he was also incredibly cringe in an old school atheism subreddit way. Fully convinced he was the smartest person in the world and everyone who disagreed with him was because they’re stupid. He was basically 4chan the person

He’d been increasingly alt right since the teens, I remember mocking him for it back in the day. Definitely took the new atheism to alt right pipeline. But yeah '23 is when he crossed the line for normies

Yeah he was kinda just a lunatic who also was maga. Like, bigoted as all hell, incredibly racist, but also edgy internet atheist who thought he was far smarter than everyone else and was certain trump was playing 420D chess

Yeah he was obsessed with his own intelligence and loved mocking those who disagreed with him

Remember kids, your drug buddy needs to have experience with the substance, basic first aid skills, the ability to call an emergency line, the ability to administer antidotes if they’re easy and readily available (that’s really just for opiates at the moment, but it is vital for them), and most importantly be human. Anything else is just someone you do drugs with. The drug buddy is a friend and a good time amplifier sure, but they’re also a safety figure.

That whole thing was weird. Like, even if it was a perfect simulation, it still wouldn’t keep me dry and warm like real real estate, nor could I keep my stuff there.

It annoys me to no end that they can’t be updated on linux

It’s named after the country the modern nation of Colombia is named after

Hell a lot of American whites are a blend of European ancestries. Hell, mine blended before coming here

Because he didn’t think of “Work will make you free”

I think the Hugos have done a generally very good job. Like, yeah some don’t hold up, and there have been decisions I disagree with, but at the very worst the awards represent a popular attitude of the time, and at the very best I can talk about any of LeGuinn’s winning books several decades later and find young people gushing about them.

Growing up to your south I always saw Ontario as a magical place across the lake where the government worked. Yeah, the Fords really brought my perception to reality. Your country and province are still better run than my country and my old state, but jeez I wish we’d been competing to be better

Really? He just started, it’s a bit soon for him to strike.

Fr though, that’s great

This is lemmy, everyone is always wrong

Except the real issue is that it’s his perceived sovereignty (I actually kinda think the Falklands are rightfully Britain’s, but I also don’t care that much)

Even dumber because if we asked Denmark to build a base there they’d respond by asking if we really need another one

“A superlative you say?”

I assumed this was about Europeans. In America it would be corn and our farmers didn’t have to threaten the government
