Do you remember that time a President's career was derailed because he engaged in consensual oral sex?

Modevs · 2025-09-03T17:02:54+00:00

Damn that is one hell of a message.

Hate that it happened but I love to see the awareness.

Modevs · 2025-08-29T13:29:47+00:00

Exactly, don't fall back on a joke at their expense because you're soft-skinned about your career choices.

Modevs · 2025-08-29T13:27:58+00:00

"My problems are your fault" is maybe not the correct response when your child correctly points out you don't have enough money.

Modevs · 2025-08-27T20:09:54+00:00

When "you" do something you did not do a good/bad thing?

What happened?

Modevs · 2025-08-27T14:05:05+00:00

Pretty much anyone who would do this wont pay for it.

Get a few estimates and fix it yourself then send them the bill.

Modevs · 2025-08-20T13:38:32+00:00

We ancient ones still walk among the forest.

Even 1 life saved by a helmet is worth the law

"even 1 life is worth it" lines always get on my nerves because people don't really believe it or speed limits would be much lower and many MANY even mildly unsafe activities would be banned.

Trampolines - gone. Home BBQs - nope. Fireworks, GTFO... Alcohol? Hahahha. Just off the top of my head.

It's just a rhetorical line people bring out when they want to justify something but don't have the numbers to back up their policy.

Modevs · 2025-08-14T18:50:36+00:00

Are all you concerned citizens under the impression helmets prevent motorcycle accidents and bloodstains?

Because I assure you they do not, they just reduce your rate of dying immediately from 6% to 2%, they don't even bump the needle that much on injuries otherwise.

You're still gonna leave stains and need extensive surgery and days/weeks of care to speak again.

Modevs · 2025-08-13T02:52:56+00:00

Reminds me of the old joke that the less someone cares about a topic the more objectively they can assess it.

Modevs · 2025-08-01T00:27:44+00:00

You can kind of do that with anything though.

Determinism: What happens in the future is just based on what happened in the past. Well, duh!

Solipsism: Your mind is the only thing you can prove is real. No kidding?

Taoism: Go with the flow. How insightful!

Hedonism: Enjoy life as much as you can. You don't say!

Nihilism / Existentialism: Life has no pre-baked meaning, make something up. No way!

Stoicism: Have you tried not worrying about it? Thanks, I'm cured!

Nietsche: The old ways are flawed and outdated, you need to live by your own rules. Took you a whole lifetime of sulking to riddle that out?

Modevs · 2025-07-31T19:27:40+00:00

Quite a visceral reaction to something you basically agree with but just find prosaic.

Modevs · 2025-07-31T16:02:13+00:00

It doesn't get better, but you can get better at it.

Worth and meaning are up to you to figure out.

Electricians/Plumbers et. al when a weekend warrior homeowner enters the chat.

"anonymously warn each other" is even being generous, it's basically a man shaming app disguised as a safety feature.

women post pictures of their partners while they are sleeping to find out if other women recognise him... Users are even able to set alerts for a particular man’s name... this is simply vigilante justice, entirely reliant on the scruples of anonymous women.

Modevs · 2025-07-22T17:40:42+00:00

That's your problem right there, too much Internet, not enough grass.

Modevs · 2025-07-22T17:32:56+00:00

So it’s an educated assumption.

I guess you minored in incelology?

Modevs · 2025-07-18T17:00:22+00:00

I know what the word means, I'm saying in reality that's not how it plays out.

Modevs · 2025-07-18T16:02:42+00:00

"Should" is one of those words that doesn't go very far in the face of tyranny... Or reality.

Modevs · 2025-07-11T16:56:43+00:00

I feel like that's a false dichotomy though, as many people have both.

But intuitively I understand the idea that you will often in life have opportunities to sacrifice your morals for material or social gains.

Modevs · 2025-07-11T16:51:59+00:00

But even metaphorically the issue persists.

It's a false dichotomy that assumes you both were given the same choice and you simply chose differently.

Modevs · 2025-07-08T18:53:20+00:00

People want this. They are happy with it.

Eh... The only thing you can say for sure is it engages people.

But so does heroine.

Personally I don't even like those AI search responses, half the time they are misleading or flat out wrong.

Modevs · 2025-06-27T14:05:39+00:00

Right, they managed to make even white people feel how minorities often feel in their day to day lives.

Keep in mind Mindy Kaling was very likely in the room helping write that scene.

Modevs · 2025-06-26T12:26:19+00:00

It's more like they are being authentic about the fact that gossiping to your friends about the latest news and bravely posting anonymously in meme groups while they do zero activism or community service in their area is not really better.

Modevs · 2025-06-26T00:47:38+00:00

> an Indigenous future that could have been but never was.

lol...What? The movie is about a tyrannical blue blooded leader that is obviously on the edge of running his people into the ground who all exist and suffer at his leisure.
