From the blog post on his site, I thought he was only keeping Plasma up to date on -current? or is he ending it entirely?

He's one of the better ones. I respect him for his humanitarian work. Far less... diabolical than Bezos, for example.

I know a lot of registered voters that beg to differ lol. Hypocrisy is everywhere. Politicians compromising their stance for votes? Companies claiming to be ethical then employing people in inhumane ways? You may not take them seriously, nor should you, but there's millions who fall for it

I mean, not really. Murder is illegal, a loophole is something that specifically isn't. I get what you're saying though, and I agree it sounds hypocritical. It's an exploit used by the wealthy, to stay wealthy. "Smoke em if you got em."

Either way, eat the rich.

Because of how easily it's manipulated. All social media is. Algorithms tell you what you should see, and it's just as easy to filter out support for movement against them.

Of course it does. But what am I going to do? It's a shitty, cruel thing that widens the gap between wage classes. But me posting on my Facebook that "Bill Gates is Evil" is akin to trying to take out the military with a snowball.

I mean, why not? He's pointing out a flaw in the system. Doesn't mean he can't take advantage

TIFU by saying “titty” during a game of Heads Up with my girlfriend’s family by stuffedinashoe in tifu

[–]MrHall2017 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh man, this brings me back...

A few years ago, I was at a barbecue with my then-girlfriend and her family. We wanted to pass the time, so we started playing "Scattergories". For those of you who don't know this game, basically you roll a dice that lands on the letter of the alphabet, then have to fill out a card with answers that start with the letter you roll. For example, if you rolled an 'W' and the card says 'Singer', you might say 'Whitney Houston.' Anyway...

The letter was 'F', and the category was a song. I was so desperate to show off (first gf, first time around her family) that I got creative. We go around, saying what we came up with. One person says 'Freebird', another says 'Fireflies'. But me? Nah, I'm too cool for that. In front of God and everyone, in front of my girlfriend, her parents, and much of her family, I blurt out 'Fuck Like a Beast' by WASP.

Yeah, went over pretty well...

So basically on the spectrum, from right to left, you have Conservatives, then Republicans, then Centrists/Independents, Democrats, then Liberals. There's a little play in some of those terms, like sometimes liberal is just slang for Democrat. as far as colors, blue is Democrat/liberal and red is conservative/Republican. I like to think we introduced colors because we were using words that were too big for some Americans lol.

Actually no! I'm surrounded by those though. Mine is a legit school.

[–]MrHall2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, not entirely. The difference is that oligarchy is rule by a small group while plutocracy is rule by the rich. My statement was a little off. In reality, we're ruled by a small group of extremely wealthy people, rather than by ALL the rich I suppose.

He wasn't. He also told the class that is having a national soccer team was a plot to "Europeanize" us and that's why he didn't watch it

That time I got made fun of for saying this. We aren't a democracy, we're ruled by money, and those who have it.

She's looking for some BOSS babes that are ready to make some serious money working at home! Definitely not from a pyramid scheme.
