  • I feel like this is just not talked about enough. I will never understand why the discussion is what percentage is enough. The percentage would always be enough. The value will increase so long as the price does. But it’s like people just gloss over that and are like “well back in the day 15% was enough but now? It’s gotta be 50%”


  • And what if I did do it? Even though I admit to nothing, and never will. What does that make me? And I’m not here just defending myself but all those pickers out there who’ve been caught. Each and every one of them, who has to suffer the shame and humiliation because of people like you.

    Are we not human?! If we pick, do we not bleed?! I Am Not An Animal!


  • The ban is yet another example of how out of touch the geriatrics are with technology. The only companies that would ever comply with the ban are American based websites that fear the reach of a u.s. government. In other words, that ban has about as much chance of actually banning porn as I do of stopping rain by yelling at the clouds. All it does is push people to weird foreign/non regulated sites with the weirdest shit imaginable on it. It’s literally doing the exact opposite of what’s intended.

    Not to mention it is 100% avoidable if you just have a VPN…







  • The Senate is the oldest it’s ever been. The house is the oldest it’s ever been. We have two guys running for president and if either of them wins they will be the oldest president there’s ever been… Breaking BOTH of their own records they each set when they served… It may not be a new problem but it’s quite literally never been this bad in the history of this country.



  • Unfortunately there are A LOT of people that find them attractive. A stunningly high amount. I would almost guarantee that it’s more of a branding/“all hail God emperor musk” obsession for most but the point remains. There are people out there that legitimately think it looks very cool and beautiful tho which boggles my mind but whatevs.


  • It’s a dumb take because it doesn’t make any sense. I mean you’re talking about a position where the person can (and has multiple times) literally die on the job and someone will just step in and pick up where they left off. This example makes it seem like if the president dies or even just loses the presidential race then so does every person in the country or something lol.

    I get the spirit of what they’re trying to say and even lrgely agree with it but it’s just a super bad analogy.


  • Was gonna say something similar. I feel like a big portion of Democrats don’t vote because they happen to be younger and are working. Of course it’s almost always possible to vote but it sure can be difficult. Ive been stuck at work on multiple election days with tons of stuff I still had to do after work and stores closing and traffic and long lines at polling places, it all adds up and can make things mighty difficult for the average joe. Whereas this 80 year old retired Republicans just roll out of bed and get to the polls whenever they want cause they got nothing to do and all the time in the world to do it.


  • I mean it really has been no secret at all that trump was close friends with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and at the very least was aware of what was going on for some time. More than likely he participated in some of the nefarious and weird ass crap going on at their properties and while that is certainly not proven, there sure is a lot of damning evidence (also his response when asked if he would release the Epstein files if elected a few weeks ago was hilarious lol). And people just simply don’t care. Like not even a little. At this point if it came out that trump was actually the one behind it all and he just had Epstein be the fall guy or something I still don’t think it would change anything at all.



  • Here’s the problem, it’s a solution to a problem nobody had. Never once have I heard someone say “well it’s a solid phone but God I just wish it didn’t have that pesky 3.5mm headphone jack!” It’s just another feature stripped from the phone to clearly get you to buy more shit. I don’t want yet another damn thing I have to charge. I dont want to deal with keeping track of two tiny ass earbuds and if I lose one I gotta get a whole new pair. I don’t want to deal with the fact that now if I want to listen to wired I have to buy more shit like an adapter and if I lose those headphones, now I gotta buy another one of those along with new headphones. And I hate that if I do go wireless and lose them or they break, I can’t fall back on wired because it’s not even an option unless I happen to also have the adapter.

    It’s just another in a long line of clear middle fingers to consumers and it’s annoying. Does it like ruin the phone and the experience of a phone? Of course not. Is it a completely pointless pain in the ass with the obvious and sole purpose of funneling consumers into buying a cycle of products they almost definitely don’t need and don’t already have? Absolutely. And for that I say they can eat a big bag of crap.
