You live a joyless existence if you avoid milk and cookies.

Oakland has a fair amount if you’re not scared by non-white people. Delicious food, some cool parks, lots of venues. Just don’t be wandering in people’s neighborhoods causing problems, but thats true for everywhere.

I like to think of circuits as aquaducts for electricity. Electroducts if you will.

It was a big long fad on reddit like a year ago. I guess it is just finally making it to lemmy

Yeah sounds like you’re under deep rock for so long, you mistake the sky for an even larger rock.

I have stolen books and then read them, so …

Wrong. Scifi at least is about the present. It just uses flashy backdrops and tech to bring you out of your bubble and think a different way about it.

I was saying the other day that the destruction of Gaza is like another burning of Alexandria but across a whole country. You look at satellite photos of rubble and realize that every single pile was part of something that took so many hours of labor to design and build, so much culture that is lost to time due to the bombings. Art, history, architecture, not to even mention the untold amounts of death and sufferring. Fuckin sad.

This has been happening to people randomly for years. Ysed to get calls about it all the time, and that was pre-covid

Also better that he just played a cop, instead of actually being one

It was shit and horrible then too. I used it in the past when I was a stupid kid, before I grew up and had a fully formed brain, and even I recognized the awfulness of it then, and even it taking a hard right shift in 2008-2009 when I quit.

Shoop da whoop?

It’s also hypocritical and a “look how far he’s fallen” kind of thing from the very political songs from their begginings, like City Hall, which despite being comedy still had some messages

The real reason is less about creating an actual “whites only country” and more about creating a political outgroup to scapegoat so they can stoke hatred on that line and cause the working class to be distracted fighting each other, so they don’t band together to fight their mutual enemy of those playing the puppetmaster. It’s been the goto strategy since the aftermath of Bacon’s Rebellion. Races don’t exist from a biological perspective, there’s more variation within a “race” than between them.
