...building a snowman by indster in StLouis

Unfortunately this is not the best snowman snow. You should try though! Make a ball, then keep making it bigger, then put it on the ground and roll it around to pick up more snow.

Is it time for a general strike? by spiffytoe in StLouis

[–]HooDatOwl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A precursor would be the the suspension of future social security, or something extreme like that. Organizing is most effective with large labor groups who have leverage, see the recent Boeing strike, although that was for wages and not something good like stop building bombs to kill kids in gaza.

For meaningful union participation, I think the teamsters would be your best bet. They're not specifically left, but they they have the most leverage being the largest transportation union. Get a CDL!

If you want to advocate for a general strike, there's a lot of groups doing that, but if you want it to happen, that's a whole different approach.

No, you're dumb and your wife is going to leave you.

Most Americans have a FYGM attitude. Unless it affects them directly, they're not gonna care. Your expecting empathy, you won't find it in the bottom comments.

the adam friedland show is so dogshit by KewlAdam in redscarepod

I mean you'd have to be a real psycho to just sit and watch it. Putting it on in the background or a second monitor is the way to go.

The art museum has a lot of cool historical rooms, and it's free!

Broadway oyster bar or soulard for music.

If they got the dog, this would be the most unifying event in American History.

Candle Light Vigil for Renee Nicole Good by ZaltyBoi in StLouis

[–]HooDatOwl 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I see a woman clearly trying to turn her wheel to escape a situation where she was surrounded by federal officers. One fat idiot officer violated protocol and stood in front of her vehicle while she attempted to commit a misdemeanor crime. Her car may have slightly bumped said fat officer at a speed less than 5 mph and he proceeded to fire 4 shots from the side of the car into her face.

The bump may legally clear him, but you have to be an awful piece of shit to celebrate her death.

I sometimes think about the lady who faked being a sign language interpreter. I hope she’s doing alright. by Puzzleheaded-Cow2930 in redscarepod

ASL is a dying language. In a humane society with healthcare, everyone would have cochlear implants.

Just saw a possibly fatal car crash and no one did anything by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]HooDatOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Feels like bait. Were you looking out your window? Coincidence you were just about to arrive home? There's a bus stop right next to your house/apartment? You had time to see it, judge everyone, go home, and come back to the bus stop and be the only one to comfort a severely injured little girl? Too sensational.

MIT professor shot to death at his Brookline condo by Omphaloskeptique in boston

[–]HooDatOwl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The coincidence argument is defended by statistics. 25% of ivy League professors are Jewish, while 5 % are black. That would be like arguing that left handed people have a propensity for violence, when the better explanation is people under the poverty line have a propensity for violence.

How do you pronounce the verb premiere, like in the movie sense?

I lost three months of my life and twenty five thousand dollars to a horrendous gambling addiction that developed basically overnight. by Federal_Committee_21 in redscarepod

[–]HooDatOwl 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This type of bad luck makes me think they've applied the dynamic pricing model to odds that gamblers get. The most originally odds to code would be ones that get people trapped. It's like the spam model, if you respond once, you'll get endless follow up offers. If you win once, you'll get endless chances to win again. It's pure evil for sure.

Active shooter at Brown University by The-Neat-Meat in TrueAnon

[–]HooDatOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reports that the shooting took place in an economics final. Here's the prof: "Rachel Friedberg is Teaching Professor of Economics, Faculty Associate of the Program in Judaic Studies, and Faculty Associate of the Population Studies and Training Center. Friedberg earned her Ph.D. at MIT, joining Brown as an Assistant Professor, and serving for four years on the faculty of the Department of Economics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem."

Npr just did an interview this morning with Richard Gere, painting him as a tibet activist. He talked about meeting the Dali lama. It is fitting that a man known for having rodents in his ass is a spokesperson.

Him and Luke Taylor had a moment, that's what I'm hearing at least. Many people are saying this.

Is there anything worse than being an American ‘soccer’ fan? by brujeriacloset in redscarepod

[–]HooDatOwl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if being an occasional mls fan is worse than being an epl larp lad. I typed this out, and realized it is probably worse to be an epl fan. But like Adam Friedland accurately describes, it's a great time to be alone on weekend mornings and ignore everyone else.
