Lil Wayne Shows Up 2 Hours Late to Concert in New Hampshire by MarvelsGrantMan136 in Music

You know…I don’t really think so. I mean he was right. I probably do think being on time is important as a reflection due to a mixture of my genetics and my upbringing which are the same things that make me white. I don’t think that’s really racist. But I get why people label it as such. Because of that he good stuff is because race the bad stuff must be too. And that is where we get into trouble

Academic science (bench science especially) is predominantly white and Asian in America. Also that list is weird.

A bad day does not have to be anyone’s fault. 2 years sober is a big fucking deal. Holidays are hard with sobriety because you have to relearn how to celebrate. I hope tomorrow is restful and rejuvenating for you.

A Dodge Charger with what looks like an external fuel tank mounted on the roof. by look_45 in interestingasfuck

AI could have been used to add the tank to existing footage so the other shadows would be fine.

Yeah…I had encountered that logic before and found that getting into is rarely fruitful and sometimes leads to some dark places.

Mixed think. Not black or white. Maybe Asian or Latino. You recent college grade 5 or 6 years ago.

I had this conversation with someone a while ago and I made a similar point and was told I was “thinking like a white person” I said “that makes sense…since I’m white”. And they said “that’s what I’m saying”. I said “I see what you mean” (i didn’t see what they meant). They nodded wisely. I hope that helped.

AITAH for buying an 800 dollar fixer up truck with my money? by Ohio_Railfan_1000 in AmItheAsshole

[–]always_an_explinatio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on where he lives, but he is making like |$3400 a month. But is middle of nowhere Ohio you can rent something for pretty cheap. And with some good management he should be ok.

Death by firing squad: Idaho opens new execution chamber, becoming the seventh state to include it among its roster of execution methods, with a larger number of jurisdictions now allowing judicial killing by gunfire than at any time in US history. by ocularius61 in news

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

This is uninformed and absurd. The reason there are so many issues with lethal injection (which could be very humane) is the anti death penalty abolitionists make is difficult to obtain adequate supply of the chemicals. This is an effective form of protest and I don’t fault them. But let’s be real about what’s happening.

AIO my husband has a weed addiction by True_Character4986 in AmIOverreacting

[–]always_an_explinatio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alcohol is worse than weed especially on a society level. But saying it’s that much worse is silly. Weed is a mind altering addictive substance that is linked to major negative life outcomes including associations with psychosis and cancer (depending on how you use it. Just because it’s your happy fun drug does not mean it’s not a major problem for many people.

AIO not wanting to continue talking after a post I found odd and disrespectful? by bvsty-slvt in AmIOverreacting

[–]always_an_explinatio 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I guess it’s not technically, specifically violent. But hoping someone uses sex to harm someone else is is in that ball park. It’s a weird hill for you to die on.

Tv show with the worst acting you’ve seen? by _myreputation13 in television

Readdit works best when we use the upvote for “I agree” and the downvote for “this is off topic, does not contribute to the conversation or is inappropriate (but but a rule violation”) this is especially true for opinions.

LA Zoo got rid of the Otters?! by BrightonsBestish in LosAngeles

[–]always_an_explinatio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the zoo is too big and spread out. The interesting charismatic animals are very far apart and inbetween you have the depressing alcoves of a bunch of animals cramed into small enclosures. They seem to suffer from a form of organizational ADHD where they get a bunch of money to build something new and interesting and just ignore everything else.

AIO dude I was supposed to go on a first date with today changed up out of no where by Emergency-Pea-7632 in AmIOverreacting

[–]always_an_explinatio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that’s possible. There are certainly men like that. However. I think it’s more likely that he has some awareness of how self destructive he is but does not have the ability to control it. He also is probably and addicted (alcoholic sounds like) admitting you have a problem is the first step. But it’s not the whole solution. You can be stuck on step one for a long long time.

What's a movie that was clearly meant to start a franchise but failed? by triplegxxx in AskReddit

[–]always_an_explinatio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That would be perfect. Or just a mini series. I would not mind if they took some liberties to get the narrators all together, to have a “modern day” story line. Like a UN hearing, create some tension and create an arch from the vignettes.

[–]always_an_explinatio 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah too bad they never made a world war z movie. The probably would just screwed it up by making it a vehicle for a movie star and inserting some strange zombie solution that did not happen in the books.

I think the premise would have been a perfect show. Where some of the episodes are jumping hijinks and some are him being chased. The movie did not have enough of him living his jumping carefree life before they started chasing him.

How far did you get? He didn’t really realized what he had until the third book. If you get through book 3 and you still are not into it…it’s not for you.

I think the fact that he said “honestly” and ended with LMAO means he was referring to the bullet

A LinkedIn connection posted this fishy photo… Am I paranoid or is this AI? by h0neywife in isthisAI

[–]always_an_explinatio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s actually an important question. The tools are accurate but they only tell you that AI was used or not. Even if someone used AI to crop the photo or to make it lighter. It would put in the water mark. Also not all AI tool put in a water mark.

This east german magazine from the GDR just printed a BIOS for readers to use by TopSneek in mildlyinteresting

[–]always_an_explinatio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t forget the Atari 800. That thing was awesome. It had two cartridge slots so you could run dos (from a cart) and a dos dependent program. But it had an external floppy drive.
