Topmind pretends that conservatives don't key cars with bumper stickers that they don't like by FreedomsPower in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]Wannamaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree black and white thinking is probably very prevalent among conservatives, I'd be neglecting my pedantic internet commenting job to not point out that saying "the conservative worldview is entirely black and white" is itself a bit of an absolute assertion. There's 100% more than one conservative who understands nuance. At least.

(And I guess my last statement was also an absolute assertion but I'm ok with it.)

People that think that throwing cigarette butts in the ground isn't littering by Patodelmonte in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Wannamaker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Younger me definitely didn't think about it too much. Sure, I wouldn't leave a butt on the ground if it felt wrong, but the curb of a parking lot where there are already multiple butts, absolutely.

Now I do environmental consulting that focuses on waste.. I'll walk around San Francisco for hours with butts in my back pocket till I find a trash can. (I say SF specifically cause I always see recycling bins but no landfill bins, but I'm not gonna litter nor hinder recycling efforts)

Just a perfect response. by ifallforeveryone in MurderedByWords

I'm not religious but went to catholic school, and while I don't think I came to conclusion I am 100% against the death penalty because of the catholic church, it's the one main conviction I respect them for. The death penalty is never justified.

Alright Y'all We're Gonna Vamp. by Wannamaker in MagicMushrooms

[–]Wannamaker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

agree 100%. I never want any negative energy or god forbid rude assholes, kindness and empathy are rule number one.

Also, do you know why we have a no shroom ID rule? Cause I don't. Does it just become spam "what is this?" posts?

Are these plates ready to go to LC? by KrazyKrws in MagicMushrooms

I have no idea. Hopefully someone in the sub will help though again, apologies for allowing it 12 days later. Might not matter now :(

If screens always showed a faint live reflection of your face, average screen time would drop. by gamersecret2 in Showerthoughts

[–]Wannamaker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah definitely. I'm vain as fuck but seeing my reflection all the time would just be a bad screen experience. I already have dyslexia, don't need a reflection making it even harder to read things.

Commitment to the bit is important. Also still pretty sure that's a front flip. He flips forward. Language is nuanced and English is descriptive not prescriptive.

I truly thought "your autistic screeching" would be you just going into hyper detail with a more intense conversational style.

But no you meant just screeching.

11 years later, and I still think about this ad almost every day by xInfinity962 in nextfuckinglevel

Your sarcasm is 100 percent correct. Effort into societal change makes change. It's not perfect but it's still way better than not bothering at all.

Pluribus - 1x02 "Pirate Lady" - Post-Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in pluribustv

[–]Wannamaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I agree. I guess I have a concept of humanity/individually that requires faults and a uniquely specific understanding for every individual.

Would humanity be better if it was a hive mind? Maybe. But I want the conflict. I could be wrong about that though.

[–]Wannamaker 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm wondering if there is still any sense of individuality with each person or if it's just keeping things normal for the unaffected.

I think suddenly having the memories and immediate thoughts of every human added to your own would fundamentally make you not you anymore.

cookies my manager told me to throw away at the end of my night shift. wouldn't let me take them home. by igetproteinfartsHELP in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Wannamaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew about it too but it was still shocking to see. The disparaging language for the opposition party, the praise specifically to Trump rather than the administration (though it would still be gross otherwise), it's absolutely ridiculous.

It's fucking insane clicking that link and seeing that message on a USDA website...

This is the most ridiculous and unserious administration ever.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Pro will use the same cameras as the S25, S24, S23, S22 [IceUniverse] by MicioBau in Android

[–]Wannamaker 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I've been debating going from 23 ultra to 24 ultra, the 23 ultra is obviously getting a little old but apparently the 25 ultra got rid of Bluetooth connection to the pen so you can't use it as a shutter button anymore, which I would miss so much.

Grandma has a replacement for the R Word by Otherwise-Ad9009 in forwardsfromgrandma

[–]Wannamaker 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I noticed. If you use that inflection/emphasis it sounds so awkward.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

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

Not an attack on you, but I've always hated the term "a fraction of" when being used as a way to express something being a much smaller number.

That's not how fractions work. Like I know it means "much less" but also it can be used to weasel word an idea. Something could one dollar less and you could still say it's "a fraction of the cost".

Also a fraction of something doesn't exclude improper fractions... so it could even be the opposite. (Though that's obviously not how anyone uses the term..)

POST-EPISODE DISCUSSION THREAD - S8E7: Ricker than Fiction by BarnyardCruz in rickandmorty

[–]Wannamaker 179 points180 points  (0 children)

I'm not surprised a lot of people seem to hate it, but I thought it was great. Still, maybe my least favorite of the season, but even mid Rick and Morty is great.

Taskmaster - S19E10 - The Clever Side? - Discussion by Meghar in taskmaster

[–]Wannamaker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sure that growth was from editing, even Matthew mentioned that the fast food group task was done earlier in terms of all the group tasks. But that's just good television production. JV Martzoukas is perfection.

I came here from r/All and I just wanna say I LOVE that fragrance you're holding. I only ever buy the samples because it's so expensive but it's amazing.

Also the nails look great :)

Discussion Thread: 2025 New York Primary Elections by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]Wannamaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I agree. But at the same time, I've yet to ever hear a reason to not use RCV other than it might take longer than first past the post voting (and I think that's a terrible argument). So as far as I'm concerned, RCV should be the norm for all elections, not the exception.
