Big mean crocodile might eat one.

A couple billion years from our point of view.

Dude doing the programming hasn’t even left for lunch yet.

I’ll check it out. Thank you.

I found a neat little workaround that I used for a while. I’d load the video up in my browser, turn the phone on an off a couple times, press play on the lock screen, and enjoy it that way.

Edit:

Still works. Just gotta full screen the video and then power off before it kills picture in picture.

And now I’m listening in the background as I type this.

You don’t flip yours when it gets warm?

I KNEW the comment would be deleted.

I hate that people do that. I really do.

Own it!

lol

What exactly is happening when it’s downloading that stuff?

I haven’t really thought about it.

I hate to say it bud, but just like everything else he has ever done, it will be swept under the rug. People will stop worrying about it. He’ll pardon anyone involved if it ever even comes close to coming out.

All this bullshit about, “he said he’d release the Epstein files!!”

That isn’t what I remember.

What I remember is them asking about declassifying this and that, “yes, yeah, absolutely”. When asked about the Epstein files, “yes. Well, maybe not so much that one. I don’t want innocent people caught up in that.”

I’m paraphrasing and doing my best to quote, but every article I read fails to mention that. I can’t even find it when I search for it.

It was clear from before the election that he would keep those covered up.

When he said that, people cared for about ten seconds. When he sent his people to overthrow the government, his base cared for about 10 seconds and then blamed “ainteefuh”.

When he pardoned all of those “ainteefuh”, no one batted an eye. Even people who looked me in the eyes and swore that it mattered. “He’s gonna do it on a case by case basis.” They said. “He won’t just pardon them all, it would send a terrible message.”

One week later, “Well, they were political prisoners. It wasn’t as bad as the news made it look.”

FUCK Donald Trump. He can do anything he wants to do. The rest of us need to just bend over. That is reality now.

I’m sorry.

We’ll see how it goes in 2028. I ain’t got high hopes. I wish I could have high hopes. Reality has shown me that my high hopes are silly.

Sorry to be all doom and gloom. You can tell me all day that the sky is neon pink, but I can see with my own eyes that it’s still blue.

Canadaczyk?

And there it is.

Half agree with you, the other half still believe in a sane world where laws matter and mean something.

Man.

I’ll never own weapons myself. I have one pistol that probably can’t even fire a shot. It’s old, it’s cheap, it’s half broken.

Even if it could, I don’t believe in violence, and even if I did I’m not built for it.

Still, I have studied some history. I know that it is necessary at times. It won’t ever be me though. I couldn’t ever harm another human being.

If that means I lose, fuck it. Life is short anyway.

Yep, this is what I meant without communicating it as well as you did.

They always have an answer though. Always.

I don’t understand how people can be so arrogant. Religious people come in two flavors though; the leaders who tell everyone what god wants (lol), and the people who follow those leaders but aren’t arrogant enough to think that their feelies must be the will of god.

“‘at queer made me uncomfortable, and my discomfort is god talking to me.”

“Amen brother dipshit!”

I have somehow avoided Amazon all these years. It’s easy for me, nothing I require is connected to Amazon.

I’m sure there are aspects of the business that I can’t avoid that I don’t even know I’m being dragged into, but I don’t spend my money with them.

Anytime I can’t find something somewhere else, I just move on and forget about it.

The only times I’ve ever been bummed about it is when I’m working on some small project and the parts are half the price on Amazon. Most recently, it was parts for an arcade machine.

If I’m being inconvenienced, I don’t even know it.

I walked away originally when they acquired cdnow.com. I last visited the site when it began redirecting to Amazon.

I rarely see a Tesla where I’m from.

I went to Charlotte to see Modest Mouse in June and I couldn’t even count the Teslas. It really surprised me.

I swear to god everyone driving them appeared to be Indian. Not that it really matters, I just found it interesting.

Yeah I’ll have to hook it up soon. :) I’m just stoked that I found it haha.

Me too. I still have it.

Edit:

HOLY SHIT!! I’ve been missing my civ II disc for 20 years. It was in my half life 2 box!!!

Well, yeah, you can call it “paused” if you want to. The cruise control definitely stays on though and resumes the set speed when you stop accelerating. It completely disengages when you brake though, so I’ve never thought of it as turning off when I accelerate, only when braking.

I’ve never had one that turns it off if I accelerate.

They’ve all shut off if I tapped the brakes though.

You could be the first person to predict this and when it happens, I’ll tell people I was there.
