Called it on Lemmy a few months ago! Something about him and MoistCritical just give me bad juju. Can’t explain it except as a father you learn to trust your gut sometimes and it was run of those times.

If this makes sense. YouTube algorithm aggressively pushes Joe Rogan. In that sphere are other trends that come with it. Sadly they come into that picture

Kind of related but I follow lilAggy on twitch. He pissed off some of chat one day because he told them to fuck off with their Andrew Tate bullshit and full on explained bluntly how Andrew Tate is a mysogynistic fuckwad.

Imma be honest. I don’t get the whole LARP scene. It’s weird AF. Happy for people finding something they like but damn.

I mean someone is already cosplaying some romanticized ideal of someone 200 years ago is it really that much of a stretch to have someone dressed as an anamophized dog-man?

So interesting as I intentionally walk slower now. There’s something cathartic about watching people pass you constantly knowing nothing they’re going to is that important in the grand scheme of things.

Asking a question as a separated dad which I think I know the answer to. I get my kids every other week. Outside of that I also take them one on one (I have 3 of which 2 are special needs) when it isn’t my week. I have no idea why my ex doesn’t do the same. She comments I never have alone time because I’m using my week off from them, but I love my kids and they deserve one on one time. They also never leave my house early when the week is up but they’re always eager to come to my house even when it’s not time to show up yet.

I’ve always assumed it will pay off in the long run and they’re aware.

OS2/Warp

IBM showed us there could be a superior OS that wasn’t Windows or Mac. Been chasing that dragon ever since.

Clint Howard is still the scariest looking alien ever depicted on TV.

Wait seriously?

Amen. I grew up in rural Ontario where everyone and their kid has either a pickup truck or a beat up old Cutlass. I yearn to have a pickup because of how awesome they are. Challenge is I live in suburbia. It doesn’t make sense and I can’t justify it. People really need to think critically more about their purchases.

Terror off the beat

Was a series of industrial music compilations in the 90’s. Introduced a lot of us to industrial music we never would have heard of without it.

And it’s still pretentious AF lol

I’m special and because of that my comments need to look different than everyone else

Furthermore I’m doing this for reasons you won’t fully understand because I’m cooler than you

It seriously comes across like some autist green text from 4chan. Imagine if you had a buddy that only conversed in Olde English. You still understand them but Jesus Christ.

Lol you realize we are on The Internet right? They can do them I’m simply stating it’s dumb AF. Anyways, you do you too.

AAA titles are already selling between 90 and 130 CAD depending on the version. 150 for the new GTA would not surprise me.

I am happy I’m a patient gamer so aside from very specific titles (Elden Ring) I rarely buy day 1.

As a landlord (renting out my basement) Amen. Fuck people with multiple homes for the purpose of “passive income”.

Jokes aside communism is just as bad because it does nothing to prevent power from congregating at the top. The only difference is the type of corruption.

Talk to anyone who grew up in the eastern block about bread lines. Communism is a failure in comparison to capitalism.

Socialism != Communism you moron.

I’m actually all for socialism.

whoisearth, 10 months ago

Point taken. I am not for communism as I’ve seen first hand what it looks like. All communism does is congregate the power in the government instead of private hands. It’s still corrupt just in a different way.

Doesn’t matter the form of government. Power will narrow and corrupt IMHO. It’s human nature.

A lot of it, as a “Westerner” is also the devil you know.

But cars don’t appreciate in value…

Good on you with everything else and I’m with you 100%, but as soon as you drove that car off the lot it’s been deprecating in value.

whoisearth, 10 months ago

Historically speaking they don’t. I understand there are outliers for sure.

whoisearth, 10 months ago

If you look at all the cars that have ever existed 99/100 times that car is deprecating.

Yes, OP may have bought a classic car or something with high resale value. I was simply speaking in generalizations. The vast majority of cars depreciate in value once you drive them off the lot.
