Generally yes, but sometimes…

The Martian was a great book and a GREAT movie. Ridley Scott made visuals better than my imagination.

Honestly, I think I’ve hit my fuck-it point.

Whats the point of trying to stay informed, be aware of the world and make change anymore? The loudest idiot wins, facts dont matter, lives dont matter, right and wrong doesnt matter.

I think I’m done. I might play a game I dont really own in a house I can barely afford and just try to enjoy myself because taking all this shit seriously is gonna give me a fuckin aneurysm… I’m tired boss.

It was Martin Prince vs Bart Simpson.

She ran a traditional campaign on issues, Trump got them chanting “More asbestos” difference is they voted.

The Dems need to realise that this is now a popularity contest and you have to fight a cult of personality with a cult of personality.

Actually the one who was clearly out to impress daddy did the best, 2 years later he proved his business model could work and got bought out. Probably because he mentally tied his entire self worth to the project and just refused to be told it wouldnt work.

No thats “Are you mad at me now daddy!?!”

Agreed, I think the diehards have gotten much louder and the people who saw him as a catalyst for change have gotten a whole lot quieter.

I admit that I very much didnt think it was a good thing when he got elected but I did think “Maybe he will piss off a few people who need pissing off, upset some apple carts and generally upset the status quo and MAYBE be a catalyst for change some of which for the good.” Yeah… it wasnt.

I mean, I know 3 people who launched “Startups” and 2 of them had serious “ARE YOU PROUD OF ME NOW DADDY!?!” energy.

NFS Underground 2. I will pay full price on preorder to EA.

Thats 3 promises broken at once.

Yeah thats kind of the whole point of social media. You post, people comment.

I see more reposted memes about the song than times I hear it.

If people shut the fuck about it, Nobody would care.

I was a bouncer for 10 years. This is pretty much correct but its also about intensity, if someone starts off with anything lower than 11 out off 10 thats the opening.

Street fights arent boxing matches, theres no rules. You swing at me in public I assume you are intending to kill me and act accordingly until you back off or cant hurt me anymore.

Just remember Russia.

Everyones a gangster until the snow starts speaking Finnish.

I like the styling too, its got a wicked 80s cyberpunk/Delorian/Tron vibe. I dislike… everything else. I get why a lot of people wouldnt like it, its a love it or hate it deal.

But now that Musk is such a polarising figure and the truck is such a polarising design I think a lot of people cant or wont separate the two.

Unfortunately this clip from the Howard Stern movie sums up the problem.

Trump and his supporters will just see the views number as support, but a lot of people who fucking hate him engage as well.

A significant portion of that number will be people who hate Trump looking for more things he got wrong, more bad takes, more lies and more meme material.

I doubt they will have to look hard.

Its not as bad as the overpriced clothing store “Bazaar Boutique Emporium”

Which is basically all white linen clothing.

Theres a hairdressers near me that is “Bespoke hair artistry” or some other pretentious bullshit.

I sometimes say “I could care less, but not by much”

If its a budhist baby I’m putting that little shit out of the park. He will be reincarnated, my conscience is clear. /s

I think that in a practical sense theres also a difference between drinking water and water to top up a swimming pool or run a sprinkler for hours a day to keep your lawn perfect.

Policing or regulating this in any meaningful way would be a nightmare but its a legitimate counterpoint.
