Dude, I’m not disagreeing with your point, but your presentation is beat up from the feet up.

Caveat: been drinking because gestures at everything

  1. At one point, you say it’s $950 a year after establishing that the actual cost is $950 after two years.
  2. Your investment counterexample arbitrarily includes a $200 monthly additional investment which blows everything up and makes the example pretty much incomparable
  3. Your investment counterexample also assumes an immediate initial outlay of $950 rather than distributing that over 24 months.

Basically you’re comparing two wildly different scenarios, which makes your point seem pretty broken, regardless of how right your actual thesis is.

TL;DR: Cancel your MMOs, play retro and discounted indie games, and stay in school, kids.

This is the guy who wrote X-Men: The Last Stand, where Jean Grey becomes Dark Phoenix, beloved characters die, and she must be defeated in a bittersweet moment of clarity and sacrifice. It performed very poorly and the franchise went into hibernation as a result.

I hate that the worst actor from Newsradio is now a significant supporting factor in the murder of democracy.

Fuck Joe Rogan for everything else too. Dude’s just an all-around chode.

I’m not a vape user, but the model is the kind of thing that just makes me so angry.

In a world that makes sense:

  • small, mostly metal vape chassis
  • rechargeable, replaceable battery
  • built-in glass reservoir with charging valve
  • vape juice sold in medium to large recyclable cans with standard interface to the charging valve

In a world where Profit is God (the real world):

  • disposable chassis
  • disposable battery
  • if it’s refillable at all, it’s via non-recyclable, mixed material, mostly plastic, proprietary cartridges and you can save 5% if you subscribe online for refills, 10% if you pay yearly, $5 credit if you refer a friend on social media using hashtag #smoovape
  • probably gives you turbo cancer because the juice is made in a repurposed Freon plant that was inadequately converted and they just don’t answer the phone when the FDA or EPA call

Your lamp is upsetting me.

Great cat though!

Criminally overlooked and underrated.

I long for the halcyon days of old, back when we had candidates that were perfect in every way. 🙄

Yes, but Republicans do what they want with no consequences, so check and mate.
