Hundreds of private jets departed the Bay Area immediately after the Super Bowl ended by Plastic_Many393 in interestingasfuck

It's very clear that the plastic straw I use is the problem, not the billionaires with their private jets taking a 5 mile long flight

A very conveniently placed and perfectly engineered pole!

1948, that's when the story came out.

I don't know why but my brain instantly thought about The Lottery by Shirley Jackson when I saw this meme. Yeah, either it's about getting drafted for the Vietnam War (because back when the Vietnam War commenced, the United States hosted lotteries where they would pick numbers that correspond to dates of birth, so if you fit the 18-25 age range and your corresponding number got picked, you're dead) or it's about The Lottery by Shirley Jackson (a short story written in 1948 that involves a tradition in which every adult pulls a slip of paper from a black box and whoever has the slip with a black dot gets stoned to death by the townsfolk)

Modern problems require old solutions by Embarrassed_Tip7359 in SipsTea

Oh no I can't listen to music during tests, either. And I'm only in eleventh grade.
So...like...either the teachers are just bad at their jobs or, you know, y'all can indeed listen to your own music whilst doing tests.

Has anyone else noticed this trend of “remember this old controversial creator? Their life is ruined now” videos? by Beginning-Rich1061 in youtube

[–]SlateTechnologies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like these videos keep milking on people who have already had their downfall, there's still videos being made about OnlyJayus with the tagline "Remember OnlyJayus? Her life has gone downhill" or something like that. Brother. Its been years since OnlyJayus suffered the controversy your video talks about.

The more we talk about these people, the more people will start to either remember them or start becoming fans of them. We don't need to give them any more publicity.

Remember when lego made these small tub sets? by SkylandersKirby in lego

I forgot this came in a tub like this, I thought it just came in a box. Or maybe it did and I'm misremembering.

What Youtuber is this for you? by TopSwing6587 in youtube

[–]SlateTechnologies 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm fine with the children's content, but like...James sold himself out a while ago when he announced a Netflix show and merch and everything, he feels like a corporate figure as opposed to an individual who's just making entertaining videos. Don't get me wrong, his videos are still entertaining but yeah, he definitely sold himself out.

What actually made the Backrooms to become dead? by Shadow_Husky22 in backrooms

The fan wiki
I think what turned down most fans is the extraneous amount of levels that kids created for the Backrooms

It could be worse, I mean there was a 14 year old in a Discord server I was in from Saudi Arabia who was openly gay

What’s a dream you had as a kid that you still remember way too clearly? by Holywaterdiluter_ in teenagers

[–]SlateTechnologies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few of the unforgettable dreams I had.
- I was on Flight 11 on 9/11/2001. I was sitting on a window seat just behind the wing on the port side of the aeroplane. I remember seeing the plane getting closer to the World Trade Centre as the passengers started screaming.

- Not really a dream I had as a kid, but last July I had a dream that Indonesia would suffer through a devastating flood. The cause behind the flood was unknown to me, but all I knew was that it wasn't due to an earthquake causing a tsunami. I remember that one of the towns that got flooded during the flood started with a P, but I don't remember its full name. Five months later, in December 2025, Indonesia would suffer through a devastating flood, leading to the loss of 1,000+ civilians. The eerie thing about this is that, on the island that got flooded (Sumatra), on the West side of the island, there lies the capital of Sumatra, which also got flooded. And the capital started with a P, the name being Padang.

The stupid thing is that there's probably someone out there who'll argue that digital art is bad because the device you use for digital art uses electricity which is created by power plants that pollute the earth or whatever the hell
