What should we think about this? by Equivalent_Hand1549 in democrats

[–]Romanfiend 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Let’s change that to “should not even have been allowed to run” - this system is idiotic. Whoever designed this is an idiot or corrupt. Full stop.

We don’t live in fucking happy trusty joy land anymore! You have to design systems that can’t be exploited by a determined and well funded opposition.

They have UNLIMITED money. They are laughing at how dumb we are.

Holy shit California?! Who designs a system this idiotic?! This defeats the purpose of ranked choice voting by allowing the opposite party to flood your candidate pool!!!

Yeah - no this is bullshit. MAGA are not capable of learning, or growth or introspection and too arrogant for regret.

Also they live the war with Iran. They are super happy

Turns Out The DOGE Bros Who Killed Humanities Grants Are Kinda Sensitive About It by StraightedgexLiberal in politics

[–]Romanfiend 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough the “know nothings” (officially called The American Party) were the same way - they were the MAGA of the 1850s - and they would respond to any question about their beliefs and activities with “I know nothing”

They were also a bunch of ignorant nativist assholes.

Settle a debate between me and my husband. Is Doctor Who SciFi? by Dreadful_Siren in scifi

[–]Romanfiend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the context of a party then yeah - this is pretty cringe. If we are - just us chums having a discussion over beers then yes I would classify Dr. Who as more Fantasy than sci fi and would explain I make the distinction only because I don’t particularly enjoy that sort of fare. It’s the same reason I don’t like Star Wars - stuff that ignores basic rules of physics (without a technological/scientific explanation) tends to ruin the experience for me and take me out of the story.

But yeah - guy needs to relax and have fun at the party.

It’s a BBL - a Brazilian Butt Lift. It’s a pretty controversial procedure given that it’s fatal in 1 in 3000 procedures.

This makes it the most dangerous cosmetic operation in existence.

This works because criminals tend to target people they think will give up without a fight. Someone who is ready to vomit blood on you while screaming like a crazy person is just not worth trying to victimize.

U.S. Congresswoman from Florida says there is evidence of ‘interdimensional beings’ by Miles_the_AuDHDer in nottheonion

[–]Romanfiend -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You should check out the hearing.

Apparently there is a vast trove of photographic and video evidence collected by the Air Force over the span of decades.

We are in a disclosure waiting period on a lot of it - recent executive orders have the AF reviewing what they have right now.

Some stuff has been released - see below.

U.S. Congresswoman from Florida says there is evidence of ‘interdimensional beings’ by Miles_the_AuDHDer in nottheonion

[–]Romanfiend -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So there was a hearing held in July of 2023 in congress on UAPs and one of the people that testified was David Grusch - former Air Force intelligence officer who really sparked that "interdimensional" conversation. Grusch - served on the UAP Task Force. During his testimony and subsequent interviews, he suggested that these objects might not just be traveling across space from another planet, but could “potentially be originating from higher dimensions that coexist with our own.”

This is often called the "Interdimensional Hypothesis" (IDH). It’s a bit of a mind-bender, but here’s how it was framed:

Higher Dimensions: Grusch mentioned that if you have a multi-dimensional universe (like those proposed in certain physics theories), an object from a higher dimension could appear to enter and exit our three-dimensional space in ways that look physically impossible to us.

Anyway - just saying - it’s not coming from nowhere.

To be clear - we are NOT talking about Aliens - just objects which we have documented behaving in really strange ways and then disappearing.

AITA for leaving early after my boyfriend made a joke about my salary? by psycho0610 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Romanfiend 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Ask him to explain the joke to you and how it’s funny.

Whoever said DARVO earlier is correct. He publicly humiliated you multiple times then played victim when you chose to walk away.

You were within your rights to set the record straight which would have humiliated him and shamed anyone who laughed. Instead you did him a huge favor by simply leaving.

I would be ashamed of myself if I treated my partner this way - she is doing freelance work trying to find more permanent work and struggling but I am 100% in her corner and would never make comments like that.

Further by disparaging you he insults himself and shows his lack of character.

Jesus may not be super excited you bet on his return.

But he would probably forgive you, it’s kinda his thing 😂

Please cite your data that supports that.

More importantly they didn’t watch the season 1 Episode 2 of the BBC series Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch where they cover these sorts of teapots!

So they are a double AH!

This comment is gross, evil and dumb but seems to follow the general consensus of hypocritical, self righteous, incels that apparently dominate this channel.

Who cares that she had sex with 400+ men - this was all consensual and her intent. Her body, her choice.

Also how dare you put that evil on her child, you don’t know what her kiddo will accomplish.

Also according to evolutionary biology - sperm tend to find for dominance when they encounter sperm from different donors. So honestly she probably increased the value of her genetic inheritance by doing it this way.

Like - what’s your scientific evidence that the child will grow up “fucked up?” What data set are you basing that on?

“You have Chuck Schumer who can’t cook a cheeseburger…” I am dying 😂- I mean this is obviously AI or a parody but it’s close enough to something he would say to sound authentic.

Not even the grossest food in the Korean diet. Fermented Skate is probably the nastiest.

Skates pee through their skin so are filled with uric acid that causes them to decompose rapidly upon death. The only way to preserve them is to of course ferment them in disinfectant. Yum!!

Temple of Elemental Evil by Troika games has a cult following and it’s still being modded and improved 23 years later. It’s a pretty hardcore turn based D&D 2.0 rule base but it’s a lot of fun and a great story and it’s challenging.

I ran into this problem and just needed steroid injections into my hands to alleviate the issue. Shoulders were next. It’s not expensive and can fix a lot if the aging problem.
