Mad about politics again

I really hope young folks just discovering Leverage understand that in 2008 a Tesla meant basically the opposite of what it means in 2025. They were so exciting. We were so hopeful.

I was wondering about that timeline, thank you! That's wild.

me: i dont like gangnam style

you: yeah me nei-

me: PSY-ch!

reblog if you gangnam smiled

at the company holiday party and a buddy proposed "suicide via throwing yourself into the alligator moat at the Bass Pro Shop Pyramid, irrevocably changing the lives of dozens of horrified onlookers" as the coolest way to die which was the most inspired thing i've heard in a while

also, when you make it to the afterlife, i feel like conveying that your death was "alligators, pyramid, memphis" will be real conversation starter with quite a few ancient egyptians

sorry for being pedantic, but the egyptians dealt with crocodiles, not gators

yeah, but they're similar enough that the ancient egyptians would underestand

so hard not to become the most annoying person on earth if you're a little excitable and just learned a little about a topic literally no one around you has any interest in

If anyones interested in learning about the first black vampire short story, published in 1819, heres a link to the wiki, its called The Black Vampyre, and its about a former slave turned vampire who seeks revenge on his slave master. Its actually a first in many categories!

you can read the story itself here

Not only is it the first Black vampire story, it's the first comedic vampire story, the first story to include a mixed race vampire, the first vampire story by an American author, and probably the first anti-slavery short story. Some scholars believe that the text was written in response to John William Polidori's The Vampyre.

Here is the actual pdf from the site since you have to click around from the above link to actually get to it

At this point in think that D&D has more ardent support than lutheranism. And it's adherents are somehow even more annoying.

this is officially my worst post... god... i've lost everyuthing... fuck... fuck....!

AAAAAND SCENE!!!! GREAT WORK TODAY EVERYBODY!!!!

Top-Tier Villain Motivations

Very important, cannot believe I forgot:

The united states is a country of plague ridden rats

During the pandemic I was hoping masking would be normalized and that maybe we'd get a culture about it similar to china or japan, but 4 years later with covid infection rates high as ever, people seem to be even more cavalier than before, walking around completely unmasked just fucking coughing and sneezing all over the place like its not something that gets people killed

I’m not sure what this proves. It’s not like walls with photorealistic pictures of roads on them are things that human drivers regularly meet and overcome

It shows that camera-based systems can be prone to optical illusions that lidar-based systems (which detect objects and their distances directly instead of trying to interpret an image) wouldn't be fooled by.

There was a news story from several years back where a semi truck was making a left turn across a mostly empty highway and a Tesla on autopilot plowed directly into the trailer at full speed, decapitating the driver, because the cameras were fooled in much the same way as the test above by the white trailer blending in with a cloud on the horizon.

Poob has it for you

i'm going to become the joker

Okay

Yeah that’s

Yeah

Or like, to put it in terms that the "read what you like, who cares if you exclusively read kids' stuff" crowd are at a reading level to understand:

In the book "Green Eggs and Ham," the main character insists that he will only eat things he likes, and refuses under all circumstances when presented with an opportunity to try something new. At the end of the novel [spoiler alert] he agrees to Sam-I-Am's request and tries them, and he realizes that he was depriving himself of a favorite food for years, just out of fear of disliking something he ate. He learns a lesson, moving forward, that if he tries new things outside his comfort zone, that he may dislike some of them, but will enjoy many of them, and if he doesn't try new things outside his comfort zone, he will not like anything but the one thing he already eats.

Can you think of any situations in your own life where Sam-I-Am's teachings might be applicable?

Words truly cannot describe how much this is not what this term means

"what if a dangerous man pretends to be trans to-" what if we actually dealt with the underlying causes of dangerous men. what if predators faced real consequences more often. what if you stopped using trans women as a proxy for your grievances with liberal feminism's individualist denial of the need to fight systemic issues.

what if you stopped assigning blame for patriarchy's evils to one of its more vulnerable victim groups.
