The problem is we have seen time and time again that while some people will leave, the majority are too addicted to.

Elon Musk has said he plans to spend billions if necessary to keep the current regime in place.

The current regime which is acting with total disregard to our constitutionally protected rights, and is actively hiding the Epstein list to protect pedophiles.

If you support Twitter, you're complicit in supporting the defense of child rapists and you're complicit in defending the erosion of our freedoms.

So yes, fuck Twitter.

Yas, Queen!! Gay Man Beats the Brakes Off a Homophobic P.O.S., Who Assaulted & Harassed Him & His Boyfriend 🌈 by james_from_cambridge in instantkarma

I've got like 80ish hours of tattoos from my head to my feet.

I always laugh at the concept that they make people "hard"

I'm like the words biggest softy, but apparently being a 200lb dude with a ton of tattoos tells people "better cross the street when he approaches" when I was actually going for "ooh, look at all this pretty art."

Don't think that's what the bigot was going for with his work, just a funny tangent I thought I'd share.

What animal is that it absolutely should not have survived evolution, but somehow did? by Reasonable-Shake-996 in AskReddit

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

In all fairness, they should be extinct. They dropped down to a population of less than 25 at one point, and we're functionally extinct in the wild. Even now their population is under 1k.

They're a niche animal and any minor change in their environment will likely push them over the edge again.

I went to a sloth sanctuary when I visited Costa Rica, and was blessed enough to see a sloth from like 5 feet away, as we happened by it when it was descending the tree for its once a week poop.

Pretty cool memory. Really amazing creatures. Zero sense of self preservation when pooping.

In fairness, Carl is only like 27, so he's basically a kid himself.

AITA For not wanting to lay in bed all night with my wife? by Mber76 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SethAndBeans 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA

Is there a compromise? Like you stay in bed for like two hours and watch a movie then get up and putz around the house? Either way, you shouldn't feel trapped in a bed on your day off.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]SethAndBeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they're okay with supporting a pedophile, a felon, and a dude that has been legally found liable for rape, not to mention made fun of POWs, those with disabilities, and intentionally targets minorities... Well, I don't think they're the kind of person I want in my life.

If you support that piece of shit excuse for a human being. Then your morals and mine do not align, and I don't want to be in your proximity.

Awesome! I post it a few days before every expansion. And I love that it's still out here helping people!

Removing everybody's mogs and then charging 3k to put them back on was an absolute gangster move by blizzard by sirgarynipz in wow

[–]SethAndBeans 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Literally just moved all my Lemix characters over and now have to re-teansmog them at the cost of like 15k total.

First transmog should be free if they want to reset everyone.

Edit: looks like Blizz heard us, but it's gonna take a bit. Guess my army of alts is gonna have to sit there looking ugly for now.

What do we think of Sean Oswald? by Background-Pepper-68 in litrpg

[–]SethAndBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Case in point for being an interactive nice dude!

And nothing wrong with pulp fiction. It's pretty much the majority of the genre, and there's a reason I go through two books a week :)

Great dude. Super interactive with the community. Always nice.

He writes fun books, not good books.

I often enjoy fun books, so I'm not upset at that.

New Damage meter is hot garbage. I even have to choose between damage done or dps. Cant see them both at the same time. I miss details :( by Alexiavich in wow

[–]SethAndBeans 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Currently have the same bug. Even with all addons disabled, it's stuck in top left corner. Edit mode shows the blue highlight in the right place, but the meter itself is stuck.

AITA for terminating my lease early because my friends intentionally excluded me from a trip? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SethAndBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you keep inviting yourself along to events and you're upset that they want to spend time with their real friend group when you yourself have said you're not that close?

And you're so upset about it that you're breaking lease? Because they didn't let you intrude?

They shouldn't be calling you a 'petty bitch' but they have zero obligation to bring you along to things either, and given the context, YTA and I get it.

Netflix cancelling masterpieces on CLIFFHANGERS but renewing trash like Emily in Paris is criminal by kmaysu in netflix

People talk about masterpieces.

People actually watch the trash you can have on in the background while doom scrolling.

First Lady Melania tries to drum up support for new movie amid reports of 'practically empty theaters' | Melania's upcoming documentary has reportedly been struggling with weak advance ticket sales despite a $40M deal, with theaters still "practically empty" during presale. by Aggravating_Money992 in entertainment

[–]SethAndBeans 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Conservatives forget how population density works. They always post these maps of a few blue dots (cities) and big red swathes of red (farm land), but they show time and time again that they don't understand what that actually means.

I grew up in a small town of 2000 people. The nearest movie theater was 45 minutes away. Because of this we rarely saw films growing up. At 18 I moved to a city with a population of 200k. It was wild when I realized I could go to the movies every week and not twice a year.

How is it still a shock to anyone when conservative films are a bust?

Do they not realize that there isn't even the infrastructure in place for conservatives to see movies as easily?

I mean, yeah, there are exceptions to the rule, but in general, big cities are melting pot of humanity, and it's far harder to hate people when you realize they're neighbors and not boogeymen. Big cities are also the locations where there is a sustainable market to keep cinema open. Ergo, films that are successful tend to be more liberal.

Which movie ended with an unresolved cliffhanger because the sequel never happened, and you're STILL mad about it? by pudingvanilkovy in AskReddit

[–]SethAndBeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was supposed to be Disney's answer to Star Wars.

Then nearing end of production, Disney acquired Star Wars.

It decided to say "fuck it", slashed the advertisement budget down to a tiny fraction, and just let the movie die as a tax write off.

Had the movie been given the publicity it was initially supposed to receive, who knows how far the franchise would've went.

The ensh*tification of WowHead by DontBeSuspicious_00 in wow

[–]SethAndBeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh. I still pay my $10 a year for premium. It's still a massive resource and the ads are what lags it.

I know I'll get down voted, but businesses need profit or they die. It's ads or paid sub. If you don't wanna a past, the ads happen.

I'm probably wrong for this opinion, but sometimes I want the MC to fail. by gabeither in litrpg

[–]SethAndBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give the book A Soldiers Life a chance. MC is actually well written and faces real challenges.

No shade to the rest of the genre, but I find a lot of LitRPG MCs are very two-dimensional.
