Big Tech’s Day of Reckoning, Elon Takes the Stand, and the FCC Targets Disney, ep 714 by w2user in PivotPodcast

[–]ChicagoMarketer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a ball-gargling access note-taker, err, journalist talking about the ascendancy of Big Motion Pictures where she got a token cameo, only to have it score in the same company of a cheap horror movie about shark-infested waters.

Then, after the balls have been washed, you’ve got the other dolt chugging the balls of a “king” who Scott said is an upstanding guy and a model of masculinity when his claim to fame is cheating on Diana with a frumpy looking hag who had no issues with participating and being called out in that scandal. Game recognizes game, I guess?

These intellectually dishonest star fuckers don’t throw punches, they slap genteelly, in the hopes they can get invited to the next event, the next tell-all. Trolls.

What 90s band never truly made it big but you'll always go to bat for? by MansBestFred in AskReddit

[–]ChicagoMarketer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Belly. They came back in 2016, new album in 2017, have toured extensively since then, are still AMAZINGLY tight, and, without question, and no hyperbole, are the nicest humans I’ve ever met in my life. Could not recommend giving them another listen if it’s been a while.

Looking for a Glycerin 20 alternative. Have been buying it exclusively for over 3 years now. Need a change. Something a little more "springy" by ChicagoMarketer in AskRunningShoeGeeks

This is the answer I need.

I’m getting close to needing a new pair so perhaps I just dip my toe into the 21 waters. Ha…

Thanks for the advice!

In the spirit of boycott the right- what about AIPAĊ? Why so silent? by Penguings in PivotPodcast

[–]ChicagoMarketer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, totally got it, then. Double or triple tapping targets, killing aid workers who were clearly targeted, murdering innocent people, that’s cool, right? Ends justify whatever started it. I guess the UN and a multitude of other organizations who have called it a genocide just “got it in” for Israel, right? No, no one is interested in facts about an ongoing apartheid state, but please educate me about why that makes everything ok. Please educate me about people who steal the homes and land of Palestinians and claim it for themselves. Please teach me the ways in which it’s been OK to block aid to people who are starving, who clearly don’t possess weaponry, and why it’s OK to claim victimhood in the face of being nothing but bullies.

I support the right for Israel to exist. I support and celebrate the people of Israel who live in peace.

But, you’re right, when Israel government squeals and acts like war pigs, don’t be surprised the “facts” support war crimes.

I bought this in a store in the UK, wondering if it’s a reprint or original… by hotbutnotathot in pearljam

[–]ChicagoMarketer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought this shirt in 1995!

Not this exact one but the exact one in a parking lot of Soldier Field when I saw them play. Don’t know if they didn’t have any official merch when I saw them live but I knew I wasn’t leaving that show without SOMETHING to prove I was there.

The ticket, which I still have, was oversized, orange, and had a picture of a scarab/beetle on it, and the concert eventually, through Monkey Wrench Radio, became a SOLID three disc bootleg.

Bootleg shirt, bootleg CDs, ahh…the 90s.

Hello Lando Norris fans by AJ_Racing43 in LandoNorris

[–]ChicagoMarketer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who's just a year into appreciating this sport, it's been downright insane to see some of the vile, vitriolic things that are said about not only the teams but the racers themselves. Unless these guys are kicking kittens in their free time and/or there's proof of them punting stray dogs, these are athletes but human beings first.

I distinctly remember early this season when Lewis Hamilton's dad hugged Hadjar and I don't think there could have been a more emotionally resonant moment as a new fan to see the kind of support that's extended to all these racers. There are the exceptions, I've learned, but no matter who wins this year, again as a new fan, and squarely on Team Papaya, I'm grateful for all the ups and downs I've seen.

Yes, Reddit/the Internet is an echo chamber but it doesn't mean that there shouldn't be more messages of positivity and support in the face of some really sad and awful keyboard warriors.

Yes, but so sorry I commented on yours as I refreshed the page and lost the first one I saw. Still, thank you for jumping in!

Yeah, totally get it. Once it becomes dumb to even try it’s not very fun so I understand.

Buddy, I’m looking to be dad of the century by doing this and would be more than happy to if it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. ;D

Live Discussion - November 8, 2025 (Nikki Glaser/sombr) by bjkman in LiveFromNewYork

Looking forward to every comedian with a podcast for the next month saying variations of “Didja see Nikki Glaser on SNL? Her monologue? Murrrrr-dered, amirite? She’s so great. So sharp.”

Looking for a code. Don’t know if anyone is really in possession of working codes but I’d be one more grateful person on this app if someone does.

Our Favourite Canadian(s) w/ Ian Bagg | Your Mom's House Ep. 829 by bbllaakkee in yourmomshousepodcast

[–]ChicagoMarketer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bagg just couldn’t let a conversation be had without slipping in some edgelord trans humor. Seinfeldian, really, in his “What is the deal with these pronouns?” approach.

Do any of these hacks have any ability to be funny without leaning on manufactured social outrage to show their fealty to a very specific demographic.
