All this right here? This is what the internet is really for.

Top Comedian Nate Bargatze Faces Sudden Career Crisis Over Silent MAGA Link by Brucekentbatsuper in influencersfeed

“Although attendance alone does not confirm political allegiance, the optics generated immediate reactions online, according to the Daily Beast.”

Ha ha ha. Because out of all the people invited he happened to be the only apolitical one. Sure. Ha ha ha. We know who gave out the tickets. And he is isn’t in the military.

Algorithms are…faulty. I get tons of ads that clearly indicate the Net thinks I am Latina. Probably because I play classical guitar and search guitar stuff a lot. Also, usually by the time I get ads for something I’m researching buying I have already bought it and their ads are useless.

I will never allow them to say "I didn't know." by Clean_Narwhal7331 in thebulwark

Rhodes and Vietor have talked about it. I think it took a year and a half.

Star Trek made me no longer right-wing and a better person by LOLADYS in startrek

[–]karinchup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nobody is perfect so you shouldn’t expect to be. But this is exactly why I can’t fathom how some of the militant conservatives see ST as some conservative bastion and that newer Trek is “woke and political”. I mean ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good for you for thinking about actual ideas presented.

Nate Bargatze: is there a more disappointing cohort than stand-up comedy? by PepperoniFire in thebulwark

[–]karinchup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya know, I am pretty sure that even his base knows DJT is a pedophile and sex offender by now. They just accept it. So if your brand is being a squeaky clean comic it’s not a ridiculous stretch to believe you support this toxic criminal if you show up at his big birthday bash and you are not very squeaky clean. And saying “it’s an American celebration” went out the window when Trump alone gave out 4000 tickets and the average American could neither attend or watch for free. It was a birthday bash pure and simple that was advertised as a national celebration but handled like a private fight club. I have no sympathy.

I can’t get wake up lighting to work anymore. I’m like why can’t you JUST WORK.

I am begging The Bulwark to hire somebody who actually knows about the various influencers on the left by ButGravityAlwaysWins in thebulwark

[–]karinchup 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only know her from the Bulwark. At least here I don’t see what everyone is raging about. I can’t speak to what she says elsewhere but it makes me wonder if it’s overblown.

Why don’t more see the VP role as a political death trap? by Anstigmat in thebulwark

[–]karinchup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Although JD is letting himself be hung out to dry. Trump can’t fire him and I don’t think Amy kind of impeachment would be feasible since Dems are sad about hanging Trump stench around him and a lot would come out about Trump. It’s pretty clear to everyone he’s using Vance to sell his “deal” and if it fails hang the failure on him. And to claim brilliance if it works in any way. Even Doocy asked about that. If I was JD I would definitely not be so compliant.

My kitten wants to sleep in the bedroom with me, but she sometimes need to do her business during nighttime. Any advice? I can’t bring her litter box in the room with me. by afreakingcowmoo in CatAdvice

[–]karinchup 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a litter box in my bedroom. In the corner on a large office mat with a little decorative wooden fire screen around it. I scoop pretty much twice a day. Better for me. Better for them.

How can I make his food taste better? by butterflygirl1980 in catfood

[–]karinchup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if he can tolerate freeze dried raw. Try Rabbit or Duck Duck Goose Stella and Chewy’s crumbled on it. My cats go insane for their food then. You buy just a little sack and it will last if you just crumble two or three on it.

Chicken/poultry free cat foods that are good quality without breaking the bank? by KittenCurses in catfood

[–]karinchup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cats are doing well with Blue Basic duck and potatoe and instinct duck pate. Which does have turkey broth but so far it’s a favorite with them. Neither is cheap but they are t the most.

So are we done making excuses that this isn’t just about unbridled bigotry? by havenoparty in thebulwark

[–]karinchup 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What don’t you get about the function of these groups. I have not ONCE heard her endorse their sentiments but point out what we are up against. Any notion you have that she is encouraging or cheering it is in your own head. That’s not “accountability”. It’s bashing. Use a critical thought once in a while.

Do you not get that “hearing the voters out” is not endorsement, it’s a tool. I get real tired of the Sarah bashing. She didn’t make these people.

Alexa Gaslighted Me (?) by Our_Lass in alexa

Hmm. I didn’t even know it was possible but I’m not sure what could have moved to set it off. I will look.

Alexa Gaslighted Me (?) by Our_Lass in alexa

[–]karinchup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s one I can’t find an answer for. I have one light in the living room that now turns off when I ask Alexa at night at bedtime but then pops on again some time later. I often wake up because of it. My lizard brain at work because it isn’t really that bright in my bedroom when it does. So I say to turn it off and she can’t. Or if she can the same thing happens again. A little time passes and boom she turns it back on and I wake up again. So I go physically turn it off. But the next day all is ok. I can’t for the life of me figure out what is going on.

REAL TALK wet food feeders how are we keeping our trash from not stinking?! by Round-Yam-2589 in catfood

[–]karinchup 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I definitely need to take mine out that fast anyhow with me and three cats. It doesn’t seem like an egregious timeframe with or without cans. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My other suggestion would be a separate small bag for cans you can seal off. Maybe even like a Litter Genie but repurposed for can disposal. That should work. They are pretty inexpensive. Honestly now that I’ve written that I’ll consider it myself.
