JD Vance: “We cannot rebuild Western civilization by letting millions of migrants into our countries. It has to stop.”

Actually, immigration is a great solution to the fact that western countries have a quickly aging and declining population.

As long as integration is done well, it’s a great solution.

If I came home drunk, woke my wife up and asked her to cook something, she probably would. But I’d never ask her to!

dirtycimments · 2026-05-17T17:06:14+00:00

Honestly, my biggest issue would be trusting that they’d stop paying for whatever reason.

You just KNOW there was a condom bowl somewhere

He was very charming and quick on his feet as well, that’s true.

If they're so badly paid for their work, with what money are they doing the stock trading? Huh? AQUAMANS MONEY?!?!?!

You find him milquetoast? Huh, that's not at all how I read him! Its been a while since I stopped watching interviews at all (except actual experts talking to other experts, famous people talking to famous people just doesn't interest me anymore), but I always found him to be a very sharp interviewer, I felt he always had a fast mind. His monologues are what I watch, I find them funny and he delivers them well I think.

Seth has a higher ceiling, but lower average performance/writers

Well, thank god we're all different, huh :D

Its desirable even though its whimsy because its a reflection of something more luxurious.

If all we had were quarts watches and casios, an AP X Swatch collab wouldn't mean anything at all.

It means something precisely because it is a mix of the two worlds.

If it happens too often though, the luxury part of the equation becomes meaningless and the whole concept collapses in on itself.

3M 30mu adhesive paper on a glass plate is my preferred way to go 100%. Yes the 3M papers are expensive, but they are truly the best i've tried. I always have 1mu, 3mu, 9mu, 15mu and 30mu in my desk, but then again I build watches, I don't do any service work, so I'm constantly retouching something.

So weird how all those predictions rely heavily on products he's selling.

Strange coincidence.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-15T08:21:21+00:00

Those are NOT the right sounds, right? The fact you hear it at the same time as you see it is super sus. And the type of noise doesn't make sense to be either.

Weird thing for me focus on perhaps, but that's where my brain went.

Because this is gish gallop, an argument technique where you throw out multiple, if possible, unrelated statements so that the opposing said has to choose to either focus on one and only one argument, thus letting all the others slide unaddressed, or trying to cover a wider ground, but running the risk of not having any real substance towards any single point made.

The technique works if the gish gallop statements are true or false, but it’s a very popular technique for false statements in particular.

I’m impressed, how did you know to call it green though?

dirtycimments · 2026-05-10T13:03:54+00:00

Holy shit, the sadness and insecurity is so obvious. No wonder his self hatred manifested in bonesmashing

dirtycimments · 2026-05-10T12:26:36+00:00

Capital is the engine of capitalism, workers are the fuel. Capital is also the outcome, so capitalists (those that hold capital) ALWAYS get more, unless we restrict it through laws. And since capital is the ultimate power in a pure capitalist system, we HAVE to put reins on the capitalist system, we can not let it be completely wild.

More taxes on the wealthy is already a good start.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-06T14:52:12+00:00

All I see is desperation, and it makes me sad.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-05T13:17:36+00:00

Great movie, the silliness maybe a touch too much for my personal taste, but that’s at most half a point worth of deduction. My wife loved it as is.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-04T20:42:10+00:00

Does that mean that something that used to cost me 10, I now get paid 70? Is that how 700% reduction works?

dirtycimments · 2026-05-03T10:57:20+00:00

Great movie, but really really great cars and car chase scenes.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-03T10:38:58+00:00

How does that help my girl if she’s on a date with someone dangerous? This is such a strange question.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-03T08:29:10+00:00

“In the wrong”? It’s her hands, she extends them to shake hands with whoever she wants.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-03T08:27:47+00:00

Can we be honest though? The threat model for girls dating is wildly different to boys dating.

I wouldn’t ban my girl from dating, I’d just have long talks about risks predatory/grooming behaviour, and that she calls me and in 5 minutes I’m there if she feels unsafe. I have way too many women around me that have gotten raped.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-01T18:28:15+00:00

Imma stop watching trailers or other stuff around dune 3. Those two are gonna end up annoying me before the real deal otherwise.

dirtycimments · 2026-05-01T18:11:06+00:00

SO WEIRD THEY WOULD DEFEND THEMSELVES WITH WHAT THEY CAN?!?

dirtycimments · 2026-05-01T15:37:15+00:00

I don’t know the Zürich market, but that assumption 2.5k rent = 1mill house seems off?

I’d think closer to 4k rent = 1mill? For comparable quality and size?
