"We should boycott Amazon for firing all their workers in my province."

"Why bother, boycotts do nothing."

How is that the default response and not "FUCK THIS COMPANY"

Used to see the odd "genetics" fat person and they'd just be built a bit bigger. Now I'm seeing fucking waddling planetoids and that's not genetics man. Part of that blame belongs to individuals but part of it belongs to the food lobbyists and their quest to add sugar and corn syrup to everything.

Incentivise people to grow their own vegetables (or source them locally from those who already are) and disincentivise the purchase of processed and sweetened food. Have our agencies promote healthy recipes using weight rather than volume measurements and show people how to use scales to properly weigh ingredients and help make it as easy as possible to count calories.

mfs need to rewatch Ghostbusters. Never cross the streams! smh my head

Don't get me wrong, Americans really are fed an absurd amount of propaganda, and it's as likely (if not more so) to come from private sources as it is from the government. Watching American media from the outside is a wild ride, and it's no wonder everyone is so extreme.

That said, the DPRK is on another level entirely.

Last time someone told me a game wasn't for me I never bought any of their titles again. It has been years since that happened. I'm in it to win it on this one too. Eat shit Nintendo.

Between my wife and I we own damn near every Nintendo console, including every game boy, most of the DS/3DS versions, and even the Wii U. We bought two Switches because we both wanted to play BotW so badly at the same time lol.

This is where I draw the line. Palworld is an imperfect but fun game that I really enjoyed, and PocketPair deserves their success. It's entirely on Nintendo/Game Freak for utterly failing to innovate that they now have such strong competition. They had more than enough money to try something new, get fucked.

Do you have children and have you had to use parental controls for some games? The controls largely suck so much and just end up being a source of endless frustration. They are not what I would call effective.

I know a neoliberal small business owner who was complaining that his minimum wage workers aren't as invested as he is... I told him that was obvious: they don't benefit from the work they do, they don't own any of the business, and there is always more minimum wage work out there. By his own ideology, why should they care about something that gets them nothing but the bare minimum and has no intrinsic value?

nobody wants to work anymore

I just fire back with "nobody wants to pay us anymore" now.

Venture Bros is probably the best I've seen, but I also enjoyed

  • Primal
  • The Tick
  • Amazing Screw-On Head (only the pilot ever got made, but if you like it check out Creature Commandos)
  • Megas XLR

Also if you have kids and want to watch stuff with them that isn't brain rot, try Samurai Jack, Clone Wars (Tartakovsky's original), and Reboot.

"pick-me" is just the way shitty women describe women who don't hate men

What the fuck is with women hating men sleeping? I left multiple women because they hit me over a sleep-related event. My brother got hit with a hammer and divorced over it. My friend's sister would bang pots to wake him up if there was anything left unfinished by the time he went to sleep.

Fucking nutters out here.
