I think they look more futuristic or rather most people think so. I’ve seen some say it’s because they’re aerodynamic and it’s better for that but I don’t know how much drag that could cause at typical speeds.
What’s weird about Tesla is not just the door handles getting in but also coming out too. They have like different ways of getting out if the electric door fails.
Holy shit that’s actually Tom Selleck selling reverse mortgages! What the hell happened man!
Brazilian influencer who defended US immigration crackdown arrested by ICE Trump supporter Júnior Pena falsely claimed migrants being rounded up, including Brazilians, were ‘all crooks’
I’m willing to grant him an exception, not “all” but at least 1 from my count
Things feel so dystopian that I get the feeling that after they get everyone on debt slavery that they’ll put propaganda about how it’s unfair that debt is absolved on death and that your family/kids should pay for it. Fox News will be like: “why should a company’s debts just disappear? it’s unfair to the lender!”
I’m from the UK and the closest thing to the Internet to me was teletext. I loved it. My parents were baffled as to what I was doing.
I’ve always been afraid to cook for my chef friends because I’m always scared they’ll tell me that my food isn’t good enough. You give me hope that they could eat some of my food.
Yeah I’ve seen a few messages about their food being okay over time and I’m wondering which Starbucks these guys go to …
I mean their cookies and brownies are meh, but their breakfast items and other things were not great. At least not to the places I’ve been.
There’s a lot of those types of people in this thread too it seems … like there’s no reason you should be getting downvoted …
Anyways, it reminds me of this chef that I watch. He has some awesome plant based recipes and stuff I follow. So good. Anyways, he did one video about how much he hates vegans despite being one. He was being hyperbolic but there was always the feeling of “never being vegan enough”. Some vocal vegans kept shaming him about his leather couch and just spewing vile stuff in the comments even to other vegans.
He later points out in the video that it was a vegan couch and he went through great lengths to acquire it and said that he went vegan because of his love of animals and that it was a journey. There’s always something to be doing and he didn’t just start off vegan and he started small. However, there’s just so many people that just love being vile instead of supporting each other on their journey.
It seems these more vocal vegans would rather feel good by shaming others instead of trying to push the cause forward.
I don’t know how to describe it but there feels like a more “personal” or “honest” touch to Dolly Parton’s. With Whitney’s, her version is so beautiful because her voice is like an instrument and she plays it beautifully. However with Dolly’s … I could hear her words more.
That’s just to me, obviously everyone takes things differently.
I like my frame because it faces a set of windows and with all my other tvs … I would have to close the blinds to see the tv in the day time.
However, the software is straight garbage. I didn’t even know about the favourite thing … every time I change source it would spend like a minute or two trying to figure out if it could connect to it for no reason.
The Trumps pocketed $28 million from it directly, and I think it’s the most Amazon has ever paid to acquire a single movie/documentary ($40 mil to make it and $34 mil or so to market).
I mean they’d totally do that because of how popular this administration is and how much everyone loves Melania and wants to learn about her right? /s Totally not to curry favour and get tax breaks or deals with the government.
Yeah, I saw someone on a YT comment section (yes I know) citing “Google” as a source to back himself up. I was like, dude you have to read the link and that’s the real source.
What’s wrong with you? The CEO needs that money to fly on the company’s private jet! /s
Of course the company claims it’s for security reasons. I think the $90 million per year compensation must also be for security concerns following that logic.
Childish as I expected.
Which is itself hyperbole. While the GOP lie more often (and a LOT more blatantly), the difference in frequency isn’t anywhere near as big as it’s commonly believed to be by most non-fascists.
I remember this old nugget: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/24/trumps-false-or-misleading-claims-total-30573-over-four-years/
To be clear, this is unfalsifiable we have no idea how many “is commonly believed to be” by non-fascists.
There’s nothing immature about registering my disapproval of lazy and illogical nitpicking used to distract from valid and important points.
It’s not nitpicking, there’s a context in which you’re using hyperbole and the direct obvious comparison to be made is the GOP whom are in charge and have power and lie constantly and more often. In using hyperbole, you’re diminishing the lies by the GOP either intentionally or not.
In terms of distracting from valid points. I would say you’re doing that by attacking the minority party by letting the majority GOP keep going with ICE and their overseas wars.
Why didn’t you change it? It’s not a news article.
it was close enough to the point
GOP lie so much more than the Dems it’s absolutely unreal
even if it wasn’t […] thematically accurate hyperbole
… k
thanks for the downvote by the way shows your maturity
Agreed. Both of the parties are gaslighting the public and the Republicans are MUCH better at it than the DNC are.
okay …
<looks at post>
The Democrats are the undisputed masters of gaslighting
hmm …
I actually agree with you. My twin nephews are high functioning though. However, their outbursts, communication skills and stuff are just quite delayed. Their math is absolutely amazing though. When they were around 6 they knew their times table up to 13. I taught them quite a lot myself with long division, fractions, 2D-3D formulas of shapes and a few formulas I thought were fun like the sum of natural numbers. All by 8.
The bathroom thing is hilarious because the eldest learned later than the youngest but the youngest just doesn’t understand he needs to go until it’s an ABSOLUTE EMERGENCY. lol, so many close calls and umm … “accidents”. I also had to teach their parents that they shouldn’t give them a full glass of water every night because they seem to consistently wet the bed.
I hate judging parents, so what you’re hearing is a total outburst of 3-5 years of living with them and just getting so exhausted – like I’m a single guy living in London and every week would be something new to me. I literally put so much time and money because I saw the parents not putting the required effort for these types of kids …
(sorry more ranting …)
They both love watching K-Dramas (as they should). However, they would watch it till like 2-3am on a Friday. Weekends they would sleep in until 2-3pm. They used to keep the kids up until 1am-2am because “they” were up. After I got there, they finally put the kids to sleep at a reasonable hour like 9pm. However, on Saturday morning the kids would be up at 7am and they would just sleep in. My brother would wake up fix the kids some breakfast and then hand the kids an iPad and then go back to sleep himself. Bear in mind he doesn’t wake up until afternoon, so the kids would have an iPad for 6 hours or so before the day started for them. There’s a lot more where the mum was working or gaming in her room all day (my own mum and me would be taking care of the kids) … she would leave the room to say “goodnight” to the kids and then she would go back to her room. My brother would do the same. I don’t mean to demean their jobs but I don’t think any job requires you to stay at your computer THAT long and I’m a programmer.
Also my brother wouldn’t buy the kids “books” because they don’t know how to read yet. They didn’t understand the concept of reading to your kids until I did it and they felt embarrassed.
Honestly, parenting really isn’t easy. I feel as though it was simpler in my parents generation because it feels like every parent needs to monitor their kids far more now. Also, if it was easy, I wouldn’t be helping this much to get them out. I still love them all (even the parents I’m trashing) and I wouldn’t have traded this experience for anything. Seeing the kids learn and pick up things and the bond they have with me is priceless.
I’m the opposite … I put my request in first and then do my pleasantries:
“could you look into this for me?”
“btw good morning”
I kinda do and I don’t. Half of those people would call me an ethnic slur behind my back.
I’m British/Canadian and when I was in the UK during Brexit I was chatting with my friends and my Austrian friend said this to me: “we will be fine, we’re smart hardworking men in the economy … we may not eat as well, but we will find ways to eat.”
We vote to make sure we’re all safe and they vote to only make themselves safe while instead putting us all in danger. I’m all out of fucks to give to any of these people.
