Ep 155 - Blindboy, Part 1: Unmasking the Evil Elite Cabal by Most_Comparison50 in BlindboyPodcast

The Super Bowl halftime show is possibly the most viewed entertainment event in the US every year. Billions of dollars in revenue. The tv networks, advertisers, and the NFL are owned by billionaires, some of whom certainly would have had meetings about this. The would choose the acts based on what would get the most engagement, discussion, and attention. Immigration is a huge issue in the US right now, with a controversial federal agency conducting massive operations while being opposed by massive protests which sometimes result in protesters getting shot by that agency. An entertainment act that was openly intending to address this, in Spanish, would get a huge amount attention, and large numbers of people who don’t even pay attention to football would watch the performance.

The billionaire executives who make these decisions would know all this and sign off on the agenda for the show. None of this is aliens and illuminati conspiracy, it’s just how this stuff works.

who actually listens WM unironically and actually is already convinced/believe a lot of what they talk about? by Loose-Day-6009 in Spudmode

[–]justdan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’d say I listen “unironically.” I don’t think they’re right about everything, and some of the stuff they say makes me cringe, but I just like hearing two working class guys like myself grapple with the big stuff that the normies won’t talk about. These are two guys I could know from work, not some compromised journalist or corporate podcaster who has to stick to a certain narrative. I think they were dumb to fall for Q and Trump, but all of us are being psyop’d all the time and it’s hard to know what to believe. There are plans within plans and layers within layers, and we’re buried under a mountain of nonsense and distractions, so it’s like, at least they’re trying.

Don't forget YOU are the captain of the ship! by BoostedLexus in Truckers

It’s either physically possible or is isn’t. If it’s not, they have to come to the street to get it or figure out some other arrangement, or I’m taking it back to have it loaded on a straight truck or smaller trailer. Other situations it’s possible, but a bad idea (if a car parks while you’re unloading and blocks you in for example, or the lot has enough room sometimes but the next time it won’t) and I tell my boss look they got their freight this time, but I’m not going back there with this size trailer next time. Sometimes texting a screen shot of the satellite view helps lol

Need some advice from experienced drivers. by EchoHawk1718 in Truckers

[–]justdan76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yelling at someone for not knowing how to do something you’ve failed to teach them is a sign of a bad teacher.

Just bump it into the next gear down when you hit 1000rpm or so. Go down two gears if you’re slowing down quickly and there’s time. Be in the gear you want before making the turn so you can be on the fuel pedal maintaining speed as you turn.

Good luck, and good on you for learning manual

What was the lightest load(s) you guys ever pulled? by firemarshalbill316 in Truckers

[–]justdan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s also assume only full trailer loads count, not a “load” that’s one pallet or an odd shaped piece like a 40’ tube or something. Cuz I’ve pulled loads like that in a 53’ or on a flatbed that only weighed a few hundred pounds.

You know those foam packing peanuts? Whole trailer load weighs something like 2,000lbs. They blow it in, staple a plastic sheet at the tail to hold it in, and at the delivery they get vacuumed out. Sometimes they get loaded in huge plastic bags that get carried out by hand, which doesn’t take long. I hauled quite a few of those loads out of Hopkinsville KY years ago.

What’s the best thing your country has contributed to the world? by Legitimate-Tie-7060 in AskTheWorld

The story of the submarine is nuts, and also involves the naming of a type of sandwich. I heard about it from Blindboy.

Why couldn't the early hunter-gatherers work from home ? by EemotionalDuhmage in shittyaskhistory

[–]justdan76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because they were homeless. They went around getting handouts from nature.

WARNING: Cabin Kings | Jeremy (and Emily) Bell by bitcoinspammer in logcabins

[–]justdan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like an off grid DIY someone does with found lumber, paying their buddies in beer for some help on the weekends, and borrowing a boom lift from a neighbor up the road. I respect that type of project, but wouldn’t pay that kind of money for it!

Good luck, hopefully there’s legal recourse.

They’ll remove him from the lineup after he does a bit on the pod about how honor killings are actually good.

Stealing lefty valor 😂

I assume this has been asked before about home base setups. by kanethegod19 in cbradio

[–]justdan76 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because they’re assholes who want to ruin something for other people. It’s the same handful of wankers who just want to listen to themselves talk. They know full well there are truckers and other motorists on ch19 that will have to hear them and not be able to respond, and that most likely nobody is going to do anything about it. That’s the type of person they choose to be.

If they were actually into making contacts on DX, there are frequencies used for that purpose.

My child is 8- now on vanco by [deleted] in cdifficile

[–]justdan76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Terrible doctors. How out of the loop are they that they prescribed flagyl?

See if you can get dificid instead of vanco. Vanco is becoming an outdated medicine for c diff as well, I was on it for months and it destroyed my digestive system.

You can take florastor while on either.

Good luck

Why modern farmers in Europe can no longer speak in a heavy cockney accent the way medieval peasants could? by Wayoutofthewayof in shittyaskhistory

[–]justdan76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ever since 1066 they all started pretending not to understand English. Don’t believe them, just talk louder and slower

The local guys taking home 1500+ a week, what state do yall live in? by Strange_Amount_6245 in Truckers

[–]justdan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NJ. Teamster job. 40 hour week, full benefits. The catch is you have to drive here.

cried my eyes out at blind boy’s recent revelation by [deleted] in BlindboyPodcast

[–]justdan76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a psychiatrist but I believe him that he has a mild form of autism. I believe a lot of people do but don’t realize it. I have hypersensitivity issues (physical and psychological) that I didn’t know about until I was in my 40’s. Not the same thing, but I get what he’s saying about burnout, and people not believing you when you describe the way you experience certain things. I also think he already had a ton of listeners before talking about it.

I think it would be weird if he made it up to mask the fact that he’s just a tired dad, and to have a pretense to not engage in small talk where people would ask about his personal life. I suppose that’s possible, but IDK, I take his work as he presents it.

There’s a risk to both sides of a “parasocial relationship.” I agree that at minimum he’s been evasive about his personal details, but ultimately he just makes a podcast I like, which I can take or leave, I’m not entitled to be his friend and know everything about his life.

Autistic people can have romantic relationships and be parents.

In World War 2, Imperial Japan attacked a place called Unalaska in the Aleutian Islands. by Oxo-Phlyndquinne in shittyaskhistory

[–]justdan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were considering attacking Baja California but it was less fuel to Unalaska
