He’s lowered prescription drug prices by 1500%, too.
Like numbers mean anything to this deranged ape.
I was in that scene in the 80s. Been thinking about it a lot lately, it’s hard.
Bon Jovi’s crew had a designated chaperone, and I thought that was weird at the time. It was cool, though. I do appreciate it now. They wouldn’t allow the drugs or the sex – some roadie crews had that, and others didn’t, there was none of that (eta: the really bad stuff) in my circles, but I heard about the bad ones. I was like 15 at that time.
I was thinking the bear belonged to window guy. That the guy jumping out the window was that dumb kind of tough that does reckless things like jumping out glass windows and riding a bear.
Definitely wouldn’t have got it without the context.
e : and I thought the joke was that’s how dumb-tough guy thinks he has to evacuate a building, because that’s how it’s done, like in movies.
So there was a punchline in my head, but it was quite wrong.
Because in the grand scheme of everything ads have so little effect on life
That’s objectively untrue, though. It’s just so effective, you don’t notice it anymore, and that’s kind of scary.
Wow. So glad this is what’s on what’s left of his mind. Not soaring prices or atrocities committed in his name. No, this is what matters.
Anyone else see a red circle at their feet, or is that just me?
Well, yeah. Regulations are a major part of society, and a major reason we tend to come together. Yet another reason libertarianism is misguided.
You literally can do that.
Why do people seem to think this is impossible?
What’s changed? Some parts of that life are sometimes illegal, but most people haven’t been against it like this.
What’s different?
Well yeah, I get that. But there are plots for really cheap, but they don’t have any kind of access to water, sewage, or whatever. Plots for like 10,000 or less. That sounds like a lot, I suppose, but it isn’t. I think it’s more that people don’t understand how money works,
Of course I do. And again, that’s my point.
People romanticise this, but it’s impossible for many reasons. You can easily try, but we have societies for a reason.
Everyone is free to do this, but good luck in practice. It’s not just hard, and it’s not just stupid, but why the fuck would you want this? It’s insane, and we’re not geared for this.
Life in the wilderness is not a Disney movie. It’s so ruthlessly difficult, that’s why society exists. We are stronger, safer, and happier together.
Yes, that would need to be the plan. One upfront payment then never paying for utilities or other things forever. That’s the only way this works. You don’t need income, because you live on rabbits and fish and your garden. If your house burns, you put it out with buckets from your stream. You build your house yourself by cutting down trees.
If you get sick, you either die or you don’t.
I think this is madness, but that’s how you do this.
‘Taco Bell isn't even good’
Yeah I know. Sometimes the raccoon inside of me craves garbage. Leave me & my Crunchwrap alone.
You’re lucky – an overhead cubby and 3 drawers. Plenty of places to hide booze.
The basis for my theory:
If we developed warp drive, genetic manipulation, and transporter tech, I’d reckon even before that we’d first figure out how to make dogs live for hundreds of years. Because that’s easier and of course we would.
I’ve seen people post that it must have been like Porthos v9 because of the time difference, but there’s no way that dog didn’t outlive Archer by decades, because if we’re going to do anything good as a species, it will be making sure our dogs outlive us.
So Scotty lost the OG Porthos.
e: better phrasing
What’s the over/under on Polio for 2026?
