Something something joke about sand. Followed by Star Wars joke. I dunno, I'm tired.

Just deserts. 🌵

Everything changed. You're not crazy. If you watch movies made before the 2000s about office culture, including the movie 9 to 5, you can see that the hours included a lunch break. Which was paid.

Yes, those of the older generation had it easier in every way.

The grain on the image is a nice touch.

Man I'm a progressive and even I can tell this is propaganda.

Also, missed a bunch of presidents? Bush 1 after Reagan. Lyndon B, Nixon, Ford and CARTER between Kennedy and Reagan.

I obviously agree with the overall message (that "both sides" is and always has been bullshit) but c'mon man.

Edit: like, you could put the actual campaign goals and summarized impacts and then it would be a real infographic. Like "passed tax cuts for top _% of income earning Americans" "repealed gun laws". It's still cherry picking and biased but that's what moves something like this out of the realm of propaganda and into I dunno...something more like biased news? Bias isn't inherently bad, obviously when you're trying to have an argument you have a side and an agenda.

Their decline has been so sad. I moved somewhere with fireflies in 2007. The first year they were everywhere. The second year less so and they were completely gone by 2010. I always tried to leave longer grassy areas for them but they were just... gone. It was so so so sad. I didn't grow up with them and that first summer was enchanted and magical.

I have great memories of walking down the road on a hot night with thousands of slowly blinking balls of light. The person who lives in that place now probably doesn't even know that fireflies are supposed to be in the area.

This sounded like an ominous privacy warning lol!

And the sound engineer people (not sure if that's their official title) are* suuuuper condescending about it. "Well it's your fault for not having a professional setup mixed the same as a theater."

Edit: *Fixed a typo.

Thanks for the replies people, I'm learning a lot! I think another commenter referenced the same article I'm half-remembering (as you do) where some professional audio people commented on this issue. They said movies are designed for the theater and nothing else with no intention/interest in fixing it. IIRC (and I probably don't) this is likely due to directors or studios not wanting to pay for a home version or having a specific vision they would rather not compromise. Even though the effect of not compromising is..well, the posted comic.

To be honest it's still a crapshoot of SEO bs.

Well, it was the birthplace of t_d... not like it didn't have lots of right wing voices before.

Jesus fucking christ is it just open season on women all the time there?!

Oh man there used to be a subreddit for this where it's like a random picture with associated text that's probably bullshit. Damn, I can't remember the name of it. It wasn't thathappened, it was something else.

Anyway I don't believe the text. I think it's just a picture of a dude and his kitty, which is fine. Probably either way it is a dude and his kitty.

I believe the prevailing opinion is that it is subtly intentional but has more impact than intended because it is a reflection of the indoctrination of the writers, but I may be mistaken.

It may be created to intentionally teach children not to fear police and to obey the rules of society. Which sounds good on paper but can be really problematic.

It's not just Paw Patrol. It's every cop show that has messages of the cops always being on the side of "good". There are many many many articles and academic papers about "copaganda" that explain it better than I can.

I know you guys may think this is silly but cave ecosystems are so fragile. Yes you are damaging it by just being there but they have weighed the risk vs obligation when it comes to National Park accessibility and decided that limited guided tours were an acceptable sacrifice to enrich the lives of the general public.

This is devastating and feels terrible. Don't take food inside a cave. Many caves have lockers outside. Don't eat inside the cave. Keep your bag zipped until the end of the tour and carry it in front of you NOT ON YOUR BACK.

Ugh I want to slap this person who had an entirely preventable "accident" but they probably didn't even get a ticket.

Fucking prions, man. Scarier than most diseases. Remember kids: in a survival situation it's okay to eat most of a Long Pig or a cow but don't eat the brain. You just never know.

This show is so freaking Star Trek that it out-Star Treks the Star Trek.

As someone of the earth sciences it is my opinion that whoever drew this has exactly zero understanding of "natural geographic borders".

PLEASE let "The Adjuster" stick! It's too good!

Not really. His quarters seem spacious enough and as long as he has plenty of engagement - which we can assume he did because of his study of having a pet, indoor cats are perfectly happy lazy balls of frustrating love.

I mean, there are trucker cats who are happy.

Is there a term for this "live, laugh, love"-esque pop psych BS?
