The LG flex had a flexible and self-healing screen in 2013

The patient fully embraced the Elon propaganda and spouted his praises on the dozens of media interviews he agreed to.

No sympathy for someone who invited a leopard into their house to catch the mice

The US lives in a weird food bubble where they eat absolute cancer inducing garbage and pretend their Cheetos Asbestos Blasted Quattro Dioxin dinner is somehow better lmao.

The US allows all sorts of fucked up processing steps and ingredients that are straight up banned in Europe.

Every time an American leaves the country they gush about how good the food in (destination) was - but they only ate tourist trash the whole time.

Like they genuinely don’t realize it, it’s incredible.

How to diplomatically handle car drivers who use their horns to demand cyclists make room for them

In this case I operate on the assumption car drivers are inherently good people. So when I am cycling in the middle of the lane (when the lane is too narrow for safe sharing), and they are behind me hitting their horn, I give them the benefit of the doubt as to whether they are being a malicious prick....

All three components of this suggestion are perfectly legal:

Take the lane to the full legal extent allowed

Wear a helmet or body cam

Carry a glass breaker and the most lethal self defense tool legally allowed in your area

You are reverting to the capitalist brainwashing that has been repeated to you for your entire life.

Nobody is arguing that a grocery stocker requires less skill and training than brain surgery. Literally nobody. And yet you people repeat this idea over and over.

I mean this not as an attack on you but a chance to expand your worldview. Cognitive dissonance hurts, and it’s important to recognize when it’s happening so you can ask further questions.

There is no such thing as an “unskilled worker” because all jobs require skill. It’s called human skill, and it’s what enables us to build societies greater than the sum of its citizens.

The logical conclusion you are suggesting is that because some humans are less capable, they don’t deserve basic needs such as a home, reliable transportation, internet, food, utilities, etc.

And if your basic premise starts with the notion that society should not be meeting the basic needs of its people, then there’s only one thing that would convince you anyway.

Imperceptible to someone completely ignoring history and the world around them, sure!

The concept of state sponsored police in the US originated in slave hunting gangs. The US never changed since the beginning.

To your point though there is an incredible amount of brainwashing. Your average North Korean is less brainwashed than Americans, at least they know what other countries have.

Americans think they are the last beacon of civilization and the developed world is in ruins when it’s literally the other way around lmao.

Look all I’m saying is, when shit like this happened to medieval Chinese peasants, millions of landholders died and they still had more free time than us

(Before a liberal points out the obvious, I am aware technology has advanced since the Qing dynasty)

theareciboincident ,

Yeah that went out the window when American corpos found out during the pandemic they can literally just keep raising prices for shittier product and Americans just… keep buying it

Welcome to the end of human society, we’re just getting started. Should have chosen a birthdate a few decades earlier, too bad!

It’s because it makes the kind of person who drives these shitty cars so fucking mad it’s hilarious

theareciboincident ,

Normies genuinely turn on their Smart TV, watch start menu ads, open the YouTube app, wait 90 seconds for the shitty cpu to load the web view, scroll through hundreds of Spider-Man Elsa brainwashing videos and thinly disguised ads, open a video, watch 3 minutes of ads, straight into a 3 minute sponsor segment. All before seeing any actual content.

And they see no problem with this at all, the thought that you can make ads go away literally does not even occur to them as a possibility.

Humanity deserves extinction, I’m gonna go release some refrigerant real quick
