a unique quality to the feeling of it’s drive

I have to admit I’m skeptical, and not just because it sounds written by a marketing team.

Things like the subjective feeling of something are strongly socially determined. When we’re told something is fancy or high quality we have a different and better experience of that thing.

As humans it’s rarely possible to separate our experience of a thing from our judgements of the people and identities we associate with it.

the deputy marshal “fit the general description of a subject being sought by ICE.”

100% chance the description was “Mexican”.

Not being able to unpin email chains unless you change it to non-threaded replies, select all, unpin, then go back to threaded replies like a civilized lifeform. Otherwise it just repins the chain when it refreshes.

Our office also uses teams phones which still don’t have a way to show missed calls. We literally cannot call people back if we don’t get to the med room phone in time.

The manual door open on some models of Teslas require removing 2 panels that are not labeled and need a diagram to know how to remove them. Another requires removing the speaker grill and pulling an unlabeled wire.

Even once the manual door release is pulled, without power you need a firefighter’s upper body strength to open the door, and it’s likely that flames and poisonous smoke will be coming up any tiny gap you can create by pushing open the door a little.

Just willful disregard of your customers’ lives.

And some of those are really horrific. I think in one of the CA crashes, one person was able to be pulled out a window before the battery cooking off got too hot for anyone to approach and help the three others who were trapped and died.

anyone but Trump probably can get elected

That’s not how a fascist coup backed by the majority of our corrupt elites works.

He’s a slimy career politician who has ambition where his ideals should be.

Be too useless to merit a doppelganger. To paraphrase zhuangzi, few know the usefulness of uselessness.

When I look at the quality of prominent Americans who went to ivy league schools, I don’t think cheating your way through college will make much difference.

Pete hegseth graduated from princeton without the use of AI and he is one dumb fucking cunt, for example

I don’t see Aeon Flux mentioned yet. The Maxx is very good too. Duckman I remember being hilarious, but I dunno if starring Jason Alexander counts as a deep cut.

An old boss gave $100 of the store’s money to a conman claiming to be the star player of the West Indies cricket team, who promised a sizable donation when he was able to get back to his hotel room. She got interviewed by the local paper about how she got swindled. Not a lot of money, but not a good look.

Shortly before the interview, write out the details of a time you overcame a problem or did something particularly competent. What you did, how you overcame, the effect it had, the recognition you got.

Not for use in the interview, just to get yourself in a good headspace for displaying your strengths.

With this picture, does that make you Cyrano de Purrgerac?

I feel that spreading lies, even to make fun of them, is ultimately counter-productive. I know others disagree though.

This account is a violent transphobic troll.

They post transphobic comments and calls for violence then whine about being banned from trans-friendly communities because they “just want some reasonable freedom to say what I want”

It’s not a good idea or a mistake it’s just a thing that’s going to happen so prepare as best you can and enjoy, right?

My Italian friend assures me it’s coffee and a cigarette.

Almost as ironic as blithely accusing a large collection of disparate communities of having a culture of hate, negativity and rudeness.

I browse 3-5 times a day, and see something unnecessarily rude maybe once a week or so. I’ve not noticed any change in rudeness or negativity recently.

Without hard data, mood trends identified on social media usually say more about the identifier than the community.

I miss it so much.
