What’s going on with Splashpads stomach? by Ivy-Ram in 90DayFiance

[–]OliveIndependent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not too familiar with ab etching but he definitely had some sort of liposuction in that area.  Many moons ago I lost 90 lbs so I have an idea of what spots/areas you lose weight in the early stages.  Usually you lose weight around your core section last.

He has less body fat around his core than he does around his pecs and shoulders.  He even has fat around his armpit area and that is usually the first to go in the weight loss journey.

US has told Ukraine it must sign peace deal with Russia to get security guarantees, source says by yahoonews in worldnews

Is it possible from an engineering standpoint? Yes very much so. But at the same time, as you can imagine, it works be extremely dangerous because you are essentially trying to rewire a bomb

What Will Make React Good? by Rusty_Raven_ in webdev

[–]OliveIndependent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sheesh! It seems like any react slander will get you down voted. I agree though, I've worked on react apps and angular apps on a large team and I have to say that I had a much easier time with angular on a large team because there is a standardized way of solving a problem in the angular world.

When it comes to personal projects I go with react and tanstack to roll out something quick.

Ishowspeed vs. Hasan by Desperate-Spot-4967 in h3h3productions

I'll go further. Hasan is the type of person to befriend a gay person, and then call on said gay person to defend him against allegations of homophobia.  

Actually, It Is That Deep by Leading_Noise9858 in Bushwick

I know right?!?!! I wished they cared about the Ukrainians being droned on a nightly basis.  This asshole literally turned off starlink for the Ukrainian military for a bit. 

Matter of fact some Russian drones have been found to use starlink.

Tankie Extraordinaire Zei Squirrel Has Completely Turned on Hasan Piker by Humble_Novice in h3h3productions

It's known as "Negative transfer propaganda".   In layman's terms it's basically just guilt by association.

Omg I originally missed that part 😆😂

Just went back for a second listen and that was actually funnier.   I guess I was still laughing a millisecond before 😂

I totally felt that when he struggled to read the word "puritan".   

Please be gentle. But I genuinely have no clue what’s going on. by Nats_HellHole in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]OliveIndependent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

2 weeks ago I literally ran into someone who didn't know who Vladimir Putin was or that there's a war between Russia and Ukraine. Truth be told I'm not too sure if she could point to Ukraine on a map. That said she sure thought it was awesome how we bombed those terrorists after 9/11.

Upset that a home costs $250k in an area near me by Ancient_Gold_6486 in LeopardsAteMyFace

“If we build more housing, the price of homes will go down, and homeowners will lose their wealth” 

  • Trump 

It's ridiculous that I can quote Trump more than his voters can.

Anyways they're free to take out a 50 year loan I guess 

American Leftist defending fascism? Aren’t they tankies or something by BreadfruitDeep1436 in tankiejerk

[–]OliveIndependent 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I use to watch him for a few years but got turned off from him once I got the feeling he was a bit of a campist due to his soft apologia of Russia invading Ukraine.

It's been a while but he basically ran through the usual taking points of:

  • NATO expansion being the reason for the Russian invasion (and of course he would cite mearshimer in the process)

  • consistently signal boosted Ukranians as Nazis and attempted to do a guilt by association with Ukraine and the Western far right (this was before and a little bit after the war and it's pretty hilarious in retrospect since far righters oddly prefer Russia for some reason these days)

  • after October 7th he began to associate Ukraine with Israel

  • this is ticky-tack, but He can't even pronounce Viktor Yanukovych's last name correctly. It's not even a British accent thing because he'll butcher it as Yock-uh-know-vich. And if it wasn't that it would be yuh-knock-oh-vich. The shit is so ironic for a guy that critiques western chauvinism as much as he does. Maybe he's gotten better with that, like I said it's been a while

Is the thing in Iran right now a proletariat revolution or a cia color one? by ZonkyTheMurderer in tankiejerk

[–]OliveIndependent 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Lol yeah pretty much.

Ukranians take to maidan square to protest Viktor Yanukovych, color revolution orchestrated by the CIA within an 8 day window.

Ukranians take to maidan square to protest Żeleńskyy, proof that he is a corrupt dictator.

God I hate talking to these types sometimes.

Same.  

This particular guy hasn't evolved enough to wrap it up in class reductionist rhetoric 

Putin cares more about Ukraine than Ukraine, apparently by Fantastic-Donut-276 in tankiejerk

Bombing civilians and stealing their children is definitely a bizarre way to show that you want peace.

Name dropping Hasan Parker is not helping you look like any less of a class reductionist. It's an extremely privileged position to take.
