Lath ,

What do you call it when you share your internet connection with people who don't use ublock and search for weird shit just so that they'll see ads for weird shit?

Lath ,

Forget the condom socks. Those knee tassels are the shit!

I'm so sick of every single medical-related question people have online constantly getting spammed with 'talk to your doctor!!!!'

The way people online constantly say 'talk to your doctor' like it's a panacea is a lot like how medieval peasants weren't able to read scripture and they just had to trust their clergy's interpretations...

"I have had a dry cough for the past few months."

You have esophageal cancer. You're welcome.

Lath ,

Your energy channels seem clogged up, OP. You should get a therapeutic massage to improve circulation.

Lath ,

Sure. Why not?

Lath ,

I did! How'd you know?

Lath ,

Also only drink water straight from a mineral spring source.

Exxon just sued its shareholders for crying about climate change.

Lath ,

That I exist. And that we're in a relationship.

It's a love-hate thing. You wouldn't get it...

Lath ,

You know that scene with the guy on the castle wall in Monty Python and the Holy Grail that farts in your general direction?
Yeah, I giggled.

Lath ,

That's because they've integrated it into the start menu.
Evil, yes. But technically correct.

Lath ,

I don't like it. It's not holding my hand tight enough during the introductory phase.

Tried the demo, tinker template, wouldn't let me create a construct because I didn't have projectile ammo.
Engineer, but doesn't even have a flashlight.

Bleh.

Lath ,

Nah mate, they're just upside down.

Lath ,

Fun fact! Lightning can't penetrate deep into large bodies of water and instead spreads over a larger surface area.

Funner fact! I have no idea if the above is true because I just made it up!

Trust no one on the internet.

Lath ,

Eh. Close enough. We'll forget about them in the next episode anyway.

Lath ,

This reminds me of the story from some time back about a family calling emergency services because their disabled kid has a meltdown and was being violent.
Cops showed up, kid went after one of them with a gardening tool, so the other one shot him.

I think it can be used as an example of why jumping from chapter 1 to chapter 2 isn't all that helpful.

Lath ,

But how do you know if a fascist isn't a disabled child?

Lath ,

Cops as a group or as individuals?

Also, that OP thing is funny considering your tag.

Lath ,

I disagree. I can only see it as an application of chapter 2. Only that they skipped chapter 1.
And usually, the grunts aren't really recruited for their ability to read books.

Lath ,

Wouldn't the exact opposite be love defeating fascism?
I don't believe i said that anywhere.
But I can say it now.

Love can defeat fascism. Mutual love as fellow humans. Everyone has to be willing to put it to practice though.

The example i gave has a simpler purpose. Extreme violence only has one result: death.

Some people expect it to be the death of fascism, but it's not. It's just death. And death isn't picky.

Instead, some people here seem to love hating. They love to hate cops, lump them together and dehumanize them into a blob of abhorrent mass.

I know it's hard to think about things and harder still to solve the issues that plague us, but that doesn't make advocating violence right, no matter who it is against.

It's fine to be wrathful. But it's not right. Violence changes you. And as long as you have a conscience, the remorse will always be there. To escape the burden, many choose to lock away that conscience and fall deeper into violence.
Until you become that which you claimed to kill.

The only real way of defeating fascism is solving the issues that caused it to surface, together.

Lath ,

Then that's a you problem.

Lath ,

To say that means you've been a victim of effective trolling and this saddens me. It also helps prove a point, you're jaded.

The experience was significant enough to mark your personality and change your train of thought when what you consider as trolling is involved.

Return to youth, old soul, and believe that people are better than you thought, even though they are often not.

Lath ,

Thank you for the advice.

Still, not being able to handle tedium is again, a you problem.

Lath ,

But it's my most lovable feature.

Lath ,

Yeah, you can see all of those in our social media as well. A bit older now, but they've all been shared where appropriate.

Lath ,

Huh. Guess my bank isn't my bank for telling me to move my money in a separate account to keep it safe (from myself).

Lath ,

What about the mean of cringe?

Lath ,

Really? I thought it was justification to reform and improve education.

Lath ,

Think of it like this:

  • the other party has a known history of shooting anything that moves
  • as medical volunteers they went there to treat the wounded, many of which are likely unable to evacuate, and they lack the resources needed to at least get them moving
  • abandoning the wounded pretty much defeats the purpose of them going there in the first place
Lath ,

This title doesn't mention it, but it was reported earlier that users editing their past posts against this move get banned for it.

UN votes to back Palestinian membership, prompting Israeli envoy to shred charter ( www.theguardian.com )

The UN general assembly has voted overwhelmingly to back the Palestinian bid for full UN membership, in a move that signalled Israel’s growing isolation on the world stage amid global alarm over the war in Gaza and the extent of the humanitarian crisis in the strip. The move drew an immediate rebuke from Israel. Its envoy to...

Lath ,

Symbolically, that's part of the point.

Lath ,

I presume them using your data in whichever way they like, given where this was posted.

Lath ,

Dunno, but within the context, Microsoft claimed only ads for Microsoft products. Now, whether those products are predatory mobile games for example, well that's technically within the said terms.
It's basically a matter of scope and wordplay.

Lath ,

The globe is immaterial.

Lath ,

They don't care. They have monopoly over everything!
They have your phones private data, they have your search history, they have your automatically uploaded pictures to Google drive of your butthole!
They own you and you'll do as they like, whenever they like!
Now where's that guy who knows how to operate all that stuff? Wait, he was fired to lower costs?
Oh...

Lath ,

Some times, some games like to add in a volcanic map where you respawn in lava and i think they're doing it on purpose.

Tornadoes Are Coming in Bunches. Scientists Are Trying to Figure Out Why. The number of tornadoes so far in the United States this year is just above average. But their distribution is changing. ( www.nytimes.com )

While the timing of this trend lines up with the planet’s rising temperatures, scientists are hesitant to definitively attribute tornadoes’ clustering behavior to human-caused climate change....

Definitely would. The more accomplices, the better.

"Peace can only come when Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity are restored:" Italy’s president says Russia’s invasion of Ukraine can’t be solved by rewarding Moscow’s aggression ( apnews.com )

Italy’s president told the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine can’t be solved by rewarding its aggression and peace can only come when Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity are restored....

Lath ,

I was having a parallel Earth experience when I saw Italy didn't have a far right representative blonde woman as a president.
Turns out she was the prime minister.

Lath ,

Depending on who you ask, Deathloop was also a flop.

Lath ,

Dunno where, but another commenter said it was old communication equipment forgotten that could have been repurposed for bugging should anyone with the intent had access to it.

Lath ,

That seems to be it. But why do I remember more words?

Lath ,

Wait, I thought dating jail bait was the best way to keep feeling young?

Lath ,

Taking into consideration all the details I'm remembering right now, probably no.

  • Asgards are small. Nowhere to hide for the goa'uld.
  • Genetically speaking, Asgards are fucked up. If a goa'uld tried to interface with one, they'd likely die.
  • As mass produced clones, the bodies likely have some security system implemented. Anti-piracy DRM or something. Cloneuvo.

How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals

I constantly see angry mobs of people decrying "woke", "critical race theory", ""grooming"", and whatever other nonsense they made up this week. They march around with guns, constantly appending lib as a prefix to any word they can use to denigrate. They actively plot violence and spew hatred in the open....
