Not what I got - even after rereading with your comment in mind - but I guess I can see that interpretation. I was undecided on if they were just being flippant, or were serious about there being differences so significant that they were obvious and noteworthy.

I actually feel the same, but I was trying to not be too much of a downer.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I'm already subscribed. If you read the post a couple months ago from someone who just got a tiny phone, I made a longish comment on it with my own mini-review of it.

I wasn't saying you were looking for bloodshed, just action - which is why the bloodshed part was in parentheses. Your choice of edit sure made it look that way, however. Kinda manipulative, IMHO.

The public (in large organized groups) needs to put enough pressure (and ongoing pressure) on them to overcome the other pressures they are facing.

DUH. How daft do you think I am? The problem is they already have that pressure... from the mindless asshole morons on the other side, who are FAR more of a single mindset (i.e. mob mentality) than those who are more rational. At best, we cancel each other out, and that still leaves the oligarchs pulling Congress' collective strings to the same basic effect.

You obviously don't fully understand the realities over in this shithole, so until you do maybe stop telling us what to do like we're too stupid to know. Those of us who would listen to your opinion are NOT the ones behind this mess.

For those of us who are too depressed to expose ourselves to any more of this than absolutely necessary, but still don't want to be out of the loop - what's the diff?

996 ain't exactly conducive to family time.

Mkay. I might wanna get off this planet myself, but there are far less painful ways to go about it than being put on fire.

Frankly, you're blatantly full of bigoted bullshit. The dichotomy between how you opened your response, and then closed it is extremely telling in that regard. The fact is most people will vote for whatever they believe will benefit themselves the most personally, no matter their background - that includes you, despite your subtle attempt to imply otherwise.

There probably are some small percentage of Chinese people who will vote as you say - much like there are MAGAts who blindly support whatever insane buffoonery Trump is up to. This is why turnout is so important, so the majority opinion actually wins despite attempts to manipulate the outcome.

By stinking up the entire place? I mean I guess you won't notice it after a while, but...

Probably made the inevitably wrong choice between affording the PoS, or their home.

Of course it is. Next you'll be telling me horseradishing passwords is a thing, too!

But, seriously - that's interesting to know, so TYVM for the opportunity to learn.

Neanderthal. We are "enraptured," or "appreciative of the human form," not "horny!"

🤤

From my second-most favorite Fleetwood Mac album of the same name. It seemed like virtually every school marching band in the US was eventually required to use this song in their repertoire.

 

It's pretty rare for me to like an entire album, but Right Said Fred's "Up" is just an amazing range of good music & I highly recommend giving it a whirl if you ever have the chance.

 

Something I think most of us can identify with.

 

I could not find an official video for this, so this was the best alternative out of the roughly dozen or so that I tried. I can only guess the reason is that this was their very first single, and nobody expected it to become the smash hit it was. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong as I'm just a casual music enjoyer, not any kind of knowledgeable expert.

 

There's been a number of remixes of this in the nearly 15 years since release, but my favorite drastically different take on this has to be when they played live at The Hollywood Bowl.
