@MsReeezy A rhombus is a gateway shape to get you hooked on other, more complicated shapes. I was watching a comedy clip recently and noticed the sweet polyhedrons of the lamps behind the comedians, and only then did I realize how deep in I was.
@mcuban STEM propaganda is always based in increasing the supply of trained workers so they can be paid less individually. Foreign workers is always about cheaper workers because they negotiate wages under threat of deportation.
Its always about making more money for stockholders.

I’ve sort of lost all faith in using feedback from online sources. Very successful things that are inarguably beloved can look like trash if you just go by the online response.
The real reason that extraterrestrial aliens have never visited Earth is because they have a conservative political party that didn’t want to pay the income taxes needed to build a spaceship capable of reaching Earth (also, they were afraid we’d immigrate).
@roywoodjr A lot of comedians pretend to be tough guys, but as the opener probably making $40 that night, I’m not risking getting a tooth knocked out unless we are actual friends. Same rules as every other situation in life.

@NoContextBrits Drowners have a fun story. There used to be a reward for resuscitating drowned people, so there were professional drowners who would split the reward with the savior.
@elizaskinner Pulling a gun out shows incredibly bad judgement. This is the kind of person who think guns are props or accessories, and that makes them dangerous to the people around them. Personally, I’d never work with them again, or even be in a room with them.
Watching #RingsofPower,and I’d like to humbly request that the hobbits are allowed to say “for fuck’s sake”. It would really clean up their dialogue.
Thank you.
