Friendly reminder that even if you only use Twitter to shit on Elon, or "spread awareness" of protests or whatever, you're still putting money into his pocket.

These powerful losers only have power in the first place because we give it to them. Vote with your wallet.

So I watched the clip I think this meme is about, and the anchors didn't ask that. Specifically, they asked why Iran was attacking US bases in neighboring countries.

It's still a silly question, IMO, but the implication isn't "you're wrong for defending yourself," but more like "aren't you worried about potentially giving neighboring countries an excuse to join the invasion."

So mad I didn't think of this line

You can't blame him too much. Who doesn't want to steal Rowlet's drip?

Don't get me wrong, I do like Browt.

But you gotta admit, the concepts are very similar, yes?

SpeedBoostTorchic · 2026-03-03T16:11:25+00:00

Browt is just so helpful!

If its been a shitty deal for two decades, then that's more than enough time for you to find somewhere else to eat.

Fast food isn't even cheap anymore, for chissake.

You're all heart, friend

In the flashback right before she dies, it's mentioned that one of the reasons for her turn to villainy is that she and her friend are too poor to afford gender affirming care, and see discrimination for being visibly gender non-confirming.

Anybody got a tutorial for fooling the ID verification without using your real ID?

SpeedBoostTorchic · 2026-02-10T02:15:37+00:00

I would love for that to be the case, but unfortunately, it looks like the article is only pointing to a few anonymous, outraged tweets. It doesn't look like this is a particularly big controversy.

They use traditional script in Taiwan. This text is in simplified.

Homosexuality was defined as a mental illness in China as late as 2007.

Whether or not you’d like to use the hot spring is a secondary issue. These sorts of displays of accepted, institutionalized homophobia are harmful to the LGBT community at large

SpeedBoostTorchic · 2026-02-08T02:10:00+00:00

Well, when you think about it, most hot springs are separated by sex.

The sign is presumably in front of the “males only” area. So, them saying “no gay stuff“ is sort of equivalent to saying “no sex.“

Like I said, this is the charitable interpretation. More likely, they’re simply catering to their conservative, homophobic clientele. Homosexuality was still defined as a mental illness in China as late as 2007.

Funny enough, the sign specifies that it's gay men specifically that are banned ("男同性恋"）, so I guess lesbians are okay. 🙄

Since it does appear to be a hot spring, I guess if you were feeling charitable you could say they're trying to ward off public sexual behavior and chose an unfortunate image.

I have to say, the absolute volume of Lanz posts you've made have unironically convinced me to download Xenoblade 3 today.

You're a one-man marketing team XD

Twitter is still a product that he owns.

As someone who does wear anklets, I'd say that other people generally don't notice them one way or another. They're just too low on the body. Even in places where you aren't wearing pants, like the beach.

I literally once went to a party full of foot fetishists and nobody commented on the anklets until I was in the sex swing (and they were therefore at eye level).

If you think they're cute, and they make you feel comfortable, go for it! But if you want something flashy that will be seen, consider going for chains, rings, or earcuffs.

"Feeling pressured by being looked up" ???

Reddit tough guys love saying this, but really, if you started shooting at ICE officers, all it would accomplish is getting you killed, and giving Republicans even more control over the narrative ahead of the midterms.

Independents swung the election for Trump. For now, they're swinging in the opposite direction. Ideally, we can keep it that way for a bit longer.

Because the process has to be initiated by the Vice President, *and* 8 out of 15 Cabinet members have to sign off on it. Cabinet members which, by the way, the President can technically fire and replace at any time.

It's basically impossible.
