I didn't vote for him, but I was pretty sure that his plan was to hire people to do everything semi-competently so that he could focus on fucking around and enriching himself. That was a very disappointing thing to be wrong about.

Hyperthyroidism? If you haven't looked into it, ask your vet about radioactive iodine therapy. I've put two cats through it with great success. If her thyroid is broken the hypo direction I have nothing to offer but condolences, getting cats to take their meds can be a real pill.

Solar is pretty good, hydro has serious ecological ramifications though. We really need to un-dam a bunch of rivers and restore salmon habitat.

Dang, Trucktober is almost over and I hadn't re-watched this yet!

They're scientific instruments, not water pistols!

It's not about "nuance" it's about how "consent" can't exist for an occupied people.

I don't think this one would work, since they don't occupy any space in the flat plane the portals appear on. You're just making doors.

I do miss Die Antwoord and haven't found anything else that hits quite the same. Wish I had known the depths of their shittiness before buying a couple vinyls.

"Water cooled" in that they submerged the nuclear heat-sink array in the ocean to keep it from destroying their boat.

The accounts about Gaiman are truly reprehensible. Nauseating, even. Dude's a rapist hiding behind kink and non-traditional relationships. (Amanda Palmer is also revealed to be a predatory sociopath at best)

But then they might not know why they got hit.

No, it's because the President told them to do it.

It's never been easier to disseminate propaganda and misinformation. Billionaires own the media companies and the digital infrastructure.

You are wildly overestimating the media literacy of the average person.

Snow Crash, from which Zuck stole The Metaverse, is about as heavy-handed as satire can be.

You could flip those numbers around and people would still say "that firefighter is a murderer!"

Honestly it holds up, but it is wildly intense for what is ostensibly a kid movie.

The Peter Lorre lamp? But he gave Lampy a new bulb! The car crusher is way more fucked up.

ODD does not discriminate between sensible advice and "being told what to do", it's a childish knee-jerk reaction to any perceived authority. It is not a sane position to automatically reject any idea originating outside your own head.

Jurassic Park scared me real bad. Probably too intense for a toddler.
