What, pray tell, do you expect from online denizens in general? We aren't generally on here to organize a revolution or counterrevolution, we're on here to kill thirty minutes on break from work.

And you're on here too. If this shit is so important why are you here on memeville posting it up instead of actually doing anything about it?

I refrigerate bread. It's much better and more effective than a bread box. My parents did not refrigerate bread because they live in a different part of the country where it would not mold over as quickly.

At what point do Americans use that 2nd Amendment against tyranny as it was intended? Or is that difficult because the wrong party and classes have most of the guns?

People advocating for leftists to go out into the streets with firearms forget recent history:

The supreme court just made this type of thing entirely legal as well. Not that it mattered. I have to Google the incident everytime because it didn't even register as a blip on the national radar, but the feds likely executed this guy.

I unfortunately don't know what the answer is or if there even is one, but this country historically and certainly recently doesn't take kindly to armed leftists.

Humans are not the problem, capitalism is the problem.

Oh yes, that magical system that was created by ghosts or ghouls or something other than a human.

Humans are the problem and have always been the problem. Hell, we even invented the word problem to describe all of the problems we have, and cause!

I'm not usually one for these types of videos but this one had me laughing pretty hard throughout.

It's funny how similar AI generated images are to accompanying drawings for "what are ten things that are wrong with this picture?" style questions in an IQ test.

Hold on honey, before we get our Wendy's I'll have to check the wsj for the historical prices on chicken nuggies first.

Those flight logs are public information because they prevent mid air collisions, your not going to change that.

One way to prevent being personally identified is to not fly around in your own personal jet and use one of the many other available options that aren't trackable this way.

Awesome song, was just thinking how it makes a really great test for new audio equipment (especially for the mid-bass / bass part of the system).

Hey, the thoughts I have while I'm showering do not account for the dystopic problems that'll likely prevent their implementation. My shower is a happy place.

They wanted to DNA test my dog and keep his biometric data on file as part of the terms of the last lease I was looking at.

I uhh, didn't fucking sign. The neofeudalist movement is for real.

My main take on the pandemic is that employers involuntarily gave their employees a huge benefit set by having to go remote. They had to give this benefit set not just to their buddies or a select few, but to people they consider undeserving or do not trust.

All of their moves since have reflected that they want to put the cat back in the bag.

It's not about productivity at all and never has been. The studies even called the bluff by comparing productivity and determined that productivity is higher with WFH. The reaction to that has been to ignore the data and lean back into gut feel, because high level management isn't really about productivity.

You can tell this simply by the fact that their natural environment is the office and very few things in an office environment are actually about productivity. The reason they want return to office is the same reason they wanted open offices: control. It's easier for them to hover behind you in an open office plan. It's easier for them to order you around when they don't have to call you first.

It's all about control, and likely always has been.
