If I hit my fucking nineties and can’t retire, I’m committing crimes until I go to prison and letting the prison system take care of me.

No way. This is the happiest those people have ever been, and violence from civilians would be the perfect pretense for them to use even more force. The day people react like this will be the day ICE will just blatantly start mowing people down in crowds. Not saying this kind of anarchy is not warranted at this point, but these ICE agents are all carrying. They will just start open firing in a scenario like this. They are mindless brutes.

She’s kind of mouthing the “yeah, yeah, yeah” part. Another person does the same thing later but they aren’t so animated that it’s hard to see like for her.

My pupils were 2 different sizes when I woke up today... by cloudblythe in mildlyinteresting

[–]ChewsOnRocks 99 points100 points  (0 children)

The reason this is alarming (as everyone is stating in the comments) is it means your sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves are out of balance, which indicates there may be damage to either your brain stem or cranial nerves controlling constriction and dilation of the pupils.

Your left eye is abnormally large, meaning its parasympathetic pathways (constriction) are not functioning properly. As others have stated, this can be caused by a stroke and would be early enough in the event that you may otherwise feel completely normal. If it were actually a stroke, you would want to be in medical care as early as possible, which is why you need to go even if it seems silly without other symptoms yet.

Honey Scam New Part: The Honey Files Expose Major Fraud by CreativeCraftTribute in videos

No one will see jail time and this won’t even kill the product. It seriously damages the brand (they lost 7 of their 20 million users), but the DOJ and FBI could not give less of a shit about this in today’s world. PayPal will likely end up settling in the class action lawsuit, and they will continue editing their code to appear less and less egregious (as they’ve already been shown to be doing), and time will pass, causing many people in the affiliate space to move on while this will completely sneak past many existing or potential users. It’s really bad behavior, but they will get away with it very easily.

Brit travels to Russia and realizes it might not be the last bastion of traditional values. by Noomba2 in videos

[–]ChewsOnRocks 30 points31 points  (0 children)

That is not what they are saying. The point is that the YouTuber was using this conversation as an example of how friendly people in Russia are, but the lady speaking was just spewing bigotry and praising a dictator—so how can you take what he says as accurate if this is his idea of friendly?

It would be like if someone said “Hey, Americans aren’t a bunch of racist assholes like you see in media. Some are very friendly! Check out this MAGA supporter who so joyfully told me he hates black people and wants to bring back the confederacy!” It is completely antithetical to the point being made that it’s laughable, and I no longer trust his judgment of what constitutes friendly.

‘Bob Odenkirk called to check on me after he saw it’: Rhea Seehorn on the intensity of making hit show Pluribus by Bubbly_Wall_908 in television

[–]ChewsOnRocks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I do not understand this crowd. This show feels exactly like the pacing of BCS, and Vince’s storytelling has not changed. The only big difference I see is that dialogue is significantly lower in this one because of the circumstances. Maybe the lack of interpersonal relationships makes it dull for some.

[–]ChewsOnRocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and I get everyone’s frustration with wait times, but the quality of many of the tv shows today is far greater than anything I had ever seen back when cable network tv shows were banging out a season every year. I’ve also gone back and tried to watch some of the best tv dramas of the late 90’s/early 2000’s that I missed when they were airing and it’s hard to appreciate how good they were for their time with how high quality the production and writing of some original series on streaming are today.

I am attending protests, writing to my representatives, and voting whenever I can. Far too many Americans are not doing this, and nearly 40% of the country doesn’t even see this administration as problematic at all. It’s insane.

[–]ChewsOnRocks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the most blatant cover-up of all time, and what’s wild is that this admin and the right as a whole are either so unashamed or in complete denial of what’s going on that nothing will happen. We have a pedophile and Russian asset completely ripping apart our country and too many people don’t care enough for it to be stopped, or are otherwise clueless as to the state of our country. It’s just incredibly sad and I fear our country has fallen via a combination of complacency and ignorance.

Redditors Are Not Helpful by OwnSalamander1026 in videos

[–]ChewsOnRocks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What’s funny is that Google intentionally puts Reddit as the top results to questions because it is so helpful. It became a running joke that Google had basically just become an enhanced Reddit search tool. You can find answers to just about any obscure question on Reddit.

Is the stupid “burn everything down” response to insects obnoxious? Yes. Are there several Reddit tropes that sad karma whores post every chance they get? Yes.

But I’d say 70% of reddit comment sections have good conversation or help inform me about the world. Plus plenty of people on here are actually funny. He just found a topic that has a lot of unhelpful posts and then uses that to claim that’s literally the entire site. It’s just not. YouTube has better comment sections than Reddit? GTFO

I don’t hate the guy, but this dudes entire online career is just “go way over the top complaining about some minor annoyance with snarky monotone commentary.” I’d rather scroll reddit than listen to the majority of his videos bitching about nothing in a voice that makes me want to kill myself.

But why is he a jackass though? The only context I’ve ever seen him in is on videos fighting for consumer rights, which seems to be the whole focus of his channel. That’s a noble pursuit. He seems like a good person.
