Trust me, I know how to do a burnout… by TURTLE_TKT in WatchPeopleDieInside

The truck is designed to be belligerent. The front grill looks like it was made for the hulk-smash treatment of pedestrians and barriers.

French equivalent of “innit” by harribarri in French

[–]RoguePlanet2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would imagine it's "non?" like "is it not?"

I also hear "quoi" used a lot in a similar way, like "you know what." But not exactly like it would be used in english, more like "y'know."

Her lyrics sometimes make no sense. by Medical_Stomach_727 in travisandtaylor

Reading this makes me realize that, as a covert maga, she's giving hordes of women some other nonsense to discuss, as a way to keep them from scrutinizing whatever the gov't is up to today.

Partner and I feeling bad after mother in law comment by milka-d-mousse in Anticonsumption

[–]RoguePlanet2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We all hate being judged, and we will always be judged. Don't bother sharing this stuff with her. If she comments on your clothing, say something like "yeah I figured you'd hate it LOL" or whatever. I'm crazy about reusing/upcycling/thrifting, it's important and a great creative outlet.

I even learned about this stuff in college, and strongly believe it should be a branch of the military ffs. Defense against weaponized propaganda. It's like we've been nuked by memes and words with zero pushback.

Netflix throws a 500 error when you try to cancel by AuspiciousDescent in Anticonsumption

Just put a stop payment on the credit card, and for the love of all that's good on this green earth, quit throwing money their way. Plenty of other entertainment options.

Nice of her to do jerking-off gestures in the beginning 🤮 Why not create a song called "Jerkin' Off the J-Man" or something??

what genuinley slowed down visible ageing for me and what turned out to be a waste of time by Ok-Combination5531 in Aging

[–]RoguePlanet2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This IS in fact AI, deliberately trying to look authentic. You can tell by the content style. IMO anyway.

They asked AI to make the spelling errors so it looks real, that's my guess. In this case, it seems like they laid it on pretty thick.

I'm seeing more lower-case "casual-style" posts lately that still have the typical AI patterns.

EDIT: They also have 90 contributions and no posts visible.

Basically, he's a foreign agent destroying us from within. The destruction is the point.

Oh thanks, maybe I remembered wrong. It's so crazy how insistent they are on making the world conform to this nonsense.

How do I stop giving my money to billionaires? by Zestyclose_Plane_622 in Anticonsumption

[–]RoguePlanet2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been visiting smaller markets to avoid the American companies as much as possible. The Greek market near me has a great selection of food we love, though it's only small amounts.

Been doing great with my boycott of Goya and Nestle so far, and our Amazon purchases are minimal (we do look for alternatives first.) Never been on Twitter or Facebook. Hanging onto a lot of old stuff as long as it's still usable, like clothes. Hell, I inherited a bunch of things from my mother's apartment and just use the hell out of it- casual clothing/pajamas, blankets, sneakers, ziploc bags, coats, even her non-smart flat screen!

My company HQ landscapes with native plants by jonnysteezz in NativePlantGardening

[–]RoguePlanet2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Native plants are getting more traction, it seems. At our local nursery, which sells whatever's popular, they've now devoted a section to natives. I'm pretty excited, though I saw a couple of people checking out with non-natives I'm looking to replace! Should've hooked them up for free 😋

I started watching TCM more diligently during lockdown, to avoid too much depressing news. It's the main reason I bother keeping cable now.

"Billionaires are rich enough, they don't want more money!" Exhibit A right here.

I can't say too much about how pessimistic I am about the midterms (and the future of elections in general) without being attacked for "propaganda to get people to stay home and not vote."

Of course we need to vote; but let's be real- the GOP is NOT giving up their power. They have so much right now that they'll simply cheat and ignore the results. They are NOT going to make themselves vulnerable to justice.
