headlights rule

Sometimes they'll be marked as handicap vehicles too and park there. Like, I get if you have a physical handicap that makes it tough to walk long distance, but if you can climb 2 feet to get into your giant truck, I don't know what possible physical impairment you have. I live in an area with pavement princesses everywhere. It's ridiculous.

EA: Ruin Everything

Reply in thread

This is why I still consider it fair to blame EA for downstream effects like this. There's no guarantee as independent studios that they would function better, but they at least would have original staff from star games. Like PopCap, and Reddit refuses to acknowledge EA had any part of the garbage PopCap releases now.

I love the future.

Out of curiosity, I read one of their scientific studies on the website. The first one I read was a literature review (no tests were actually done) that said "one study says the supplement does nothing and another two sources say the study was done wrong so it could maybe be beneficial???" Wow. Such strong evidence.

"As a Black man..."

Outrageous! As a liberal from LA who is also the leader of antifa and worked under Bernie and AOC i am sickened. I don't see why it would matter. Unless the Gop is running a progressive, and even then it would be iffy, I don't think they'd win in LA anyway.

Anon is 23

This thread has a lot of people saying things like "don't get a degree" or "get a trade cert" or "work in a different field to get experience" which I feel completely side-steps many issues and the realities that many people face. It's just a fundamentally broken system. The value of degrees fluctuates so much because of a political climate that has the stability of a pane of glass being violently thrown off of a building and a job market that prioritizes either posting ghost jobs to overwork employees to death or outsourcing its candidate search to whoever can guess the most buzzwords in an application.

Only one of my cats is a chatterbox, but I have no idea what any of his meows mean. He looks somewhere, screams, looks somewhere else, screams again, looks at me, screams. He doesn't even differentiate at all, because he uses all of his different meows for the same things. I think he just likes to talk, because he's been like that since he was a kitten.

Only restaurant my family had a borderline hostile reaction from the staff. Seated other families before us, stating "we forgot you," and ignoring a meal order from a member stating, "you didn't order anything."

My cat was born from a stray, and I took it upon myself to raise her. She acts like she doesn't remember what it was like to be outside for two years of her life, as she has completely adapted to her regal lifestyle with no interest in going back outside ever. She is convinced that water straight from the tap is better than water straight from the tap into her bowl. She also will drink from the puddles on the floor after a shower, because that is somehow also better than water in her bowl. She also scratches at doors she wants open. She also was mad at me for an entire day for the two or three drops of flea medication.

Hot take coming through

One thing someone told me that I think is important: Trump (or whoever is actually running things) probably wants violent protests. That way, he can label everyone refusing a facist takeover as a terrorist and have them sent to El Salvador. He's toyed with the idea, so it's not absurd.
