Aqarius,

Does lazerpig still claim mathilda 2s were immune to flak 88s?

Aqarius,

I don’t understand how Drach has the time to make so much video when I don’t even have the time to watch all of it.

Aqarius,

You can tell it’s history understander time when the topic is “the Allies helped Russia”.

Aqarius,

Oh look, it’s the understander!

Aqarius,

Talk about repenting on your death bed.

Aqarius,

If it’s like the chicken I read about previously, it’s literally half one, half the other, as if you split two birds in half lengthwise and mixed up the pairing when you put them back together.

Aqarius,

I hope when the fascists rise in your country you […]

Sanest US policy wonk.

Sanest US policy wonk.

Aqarius,

Their issue is that US politics gives you brainworms. “I voted for Kodos” was already a joke in 1996, and as the argument gets less and less convincing the advocacy will get more and more unhinged.

I’m vaguely reminded about a comment I read about the poorest Americans voting for tax cuts and against welfare: The argument is that they were so immiserated that they’re grasping for any straw offered; And if you try and get them to stop and think about what they’re doing, they start ranting at you, because they don’t have time for debate and game theory, they’re barely threading water as is, they need help now.

Aqarius,

I’m not talking in general hypotheticals, The comment was made under a vox populi segment, where a woman wanted to “end welfare” so the government would have more money for “her food stamps”. And when the interviewer told her those are the same thing, she went into a rant about how she’s not letting welfare queens get her money when she can’t afford to feed her kids. In other words, she was so panicked and desperate she was unable to see the bigger picture, and reacted with hostility. The parallel is kinda stark. The start of this thread was “honestly, both choices are bad, Americans should have a better option” and your response was to rant about people against the wall.

I am not arguing both parties are equally bad. I am not saying voting is foolish. I made no argument about voting. I am not the having that conversation with you, your brainworms are. You are now on comment 3, and you still think I’m talking about the 2024 election. I’m not. I, and hopefully the rest of non-Americans in this thread, are making a broader point about the overall trajectory of US politics, which is that it’s not looking good.

Consider, for example: Why do the evil aliens have to be the same? Why can’t one of the evil aliens be worse than the other? Maybe Kang instituted a 4-day workweek. Maybe Kang offered free healthcare. Maybe Kang is vegan, and Kodos eats kids. In this case, it would be entirely justified to vote for Kang, since he is by far the better option compared to Kodos. But the joke would still work, unchanged, because the setup for the punchline is “why are we building a death ray?”. I act like you’re unhinged because you answer “Why the death ray?” with “Kodos is a fascist!”.

Aqarius,

I don’t want to take away your food stamps. That’s the worms talking again.

Anyway, enjoy the death ray.

Aqarius,

have fun lying to grieving mothers

Sanest US policy wonk.

Aqarius,

can’t understand an obvious Jaws reference

Most literate US policy wonk.

Aqarius,

When I was a kid, commercial breaks were always labeled as “economic propaganda programing”

Aqarius,

Yugoslavia

Aqarius,

I kinda wanna try and crowdsource some corruption.

Aqarius,

I kinda wanna make an app to boycott Xhina, except when you launch it it just says “throw your phone away”.

Aqarius,

In the US, they don’t use A4, they use “letter”, which is slightly wider, and “legal”, which is slightly longer.

Aqarius,

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a printer that doesn’t have some sort of adjustable tray.

Aqarius,

Weird, all the ones I’ve seen could at least switch between A4 and US sizes.

Aqarius,

Back when it was something to look forward to

Aqarius,

“A break from reality” posts a page from a comic about the Iraq war.

Aqarius,

Keep in mind, that’s Guderian telling you Guderian was smart, and everyone else was an idiot.

Aqarius,

Username checks out.

Aqarius,

I’m well aware, on both accounts. They were sincere, and correct, and you have fallen for either Belton Cooper’s stories, or stories of people who have fallen for his stories. Shermans did have one of the best safety records of the war, and the laments of Sherman crews have been greatly, and I mean greatly exaggerated.

What is good to eat when you have no appetite?

I am super sick right now and haven’t eaten much in a few days. It’s getting to the point where I am gonna need to force myself to eat something to keep my strength up but everything just sounds terrible to me right now. I have been subsisting mostly on small glasses of milk and the occasional packet of instant oatmeal....

Aqarius,

Specifically, toasted white bread. The crunch tends to make it more palatable.

Aqarius,

The second and fourth letter are “d” and “n” (д, н). the rest aren’t Cyrillic.

…actually, the last one could be a “u” (у).

Aqarius,

Get off NCD and stop fantasising about war.

Palestinian Death Toll in Gaza Tops 13,000 as Israel Repeatedly Strikes U.N. Schools Housing Refugees (www.democracynow.org)

Over the weekend, at least 82 Palestinians were killed in Israeli strikes on Jabaliya refugee camp, including multiple United Nations schools sheltering Palestinians. At least 85 incidents of Israeli bombing have impacted 67 facilities run by the United Nations relief agency for Palestine refugees (UNRWA) in the last two months....

Aqarius,

I think it’s federation from mastodon

Aqarius,

I thought viber does have a linux version. I distinctly remember it bugging out and filling my storage with avatar copies.

Aqarius,

Ah, right.

Aqarius,

Not even high level. Everyone’s heard of Tucker’s Kobolds.

Aqarius,

What happened?

Aqarius,

I, uh, I may have an economic recovery proposal.

Aqarius,

12 feet is more like 3.5-4

Aqarius,

Honestly, a pretty good answer is that if the lower damage bound is 30, the “comet” just isn’t that big really.

Aqarius,

That just makes it too generic to trademark then. Imagine an automaker called “Cars”.

Aqarius,

I mean, the payload can just be a spike.

Aqarius,

wizards of the coast

Of the “sent the literal Pinkertons after a streamer” fame.

Aqarius,

You mean “spend 5 years fighting Germans, and when they’re finally gone the British release the collaborators so they can kill you together”?

Aqarius,

Oh wow, it’s still updated!

Aqarius,

He didn’t even want to buy it, he was trying to pump and dump, the court made him go through with the purchase.

Aqarius,

It’s common in a lot of “industries”. Ever notice how priests always think we need more god?

If you stop thinking about it as cause->effect, and just as good/bad, it makes sense: tech is good, things are bad, solution: more tech. Things even worse, oh hod, it’s worse than I thought, we need even more tech, even faster!

Aqarius,

No, but it sure wasn’t Russia either. Not everything that makes Ukraine look bad is Russian propaganda.

Aqarius,

That is. What, inviting an SS volunteer to the Canadian Parliament? That’s Russian propaganda?

Aqarius,

Who thinks they did? Everything I heard was people making fun of Canadians, because it’s their fuckup.

Aqarius,
