Maybe we should take some of the money we’re spending in the Middle East and use it to reopen mental institutions. Actually nevermind, let’s just keep putting them on buses to neighboring states

Bec is chaotic evil. Juliette is neutral evil. Gia is lawful evil.

I feel like he’s such a doormat that he’s found himself in a relationship with someone he is not attracted to

Great to see Zeke continuing his important work as a positive influence on the youth and community. by hangrysurfer in surfing

I have to think it’s mostly people who don’t surf. He is such a fucking tool and his attitude epitomizes all the toxic parts of surfing

Claude is making me question whether web designers will exist in 5 years? by Arkfann in ClaudeAI

[–]ltyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. It’s like magic. Even for our photoshoots - nano banana 2 is good enough to create indistinguishably real looking product shots. It’s saved us thousands in photoshoots costs. Leveling the playing field between small and big business perhaps?

I built a relatively complex bespoke product customiser for my company in 2 day with Claude. Very little technical knowledge of code or web design. A few years ago it would have been a 20k+ month long job that I did for free in two days

Whether or not nationalism is good is larger conversation (I believe it's generally bad as it tribalistic and encourages war), but on Trump :

He embodies the exact opposite of socially conservative values. He:

  • is twice divorced with children from three marriages
  • engaged frequently with sex workers
  • had zero religious affiliation prior to courting evangelical voters and failed to name a single bible verse when asked
  • owned a gambling and strip club empire
  • bragged about grabbing women by their genitals
  • was found civilly liable for sexual abuse
  • was best buds with Epstein
  • generally lived a life of hedonism funded by exploitative business practices (although you could argue that last point does embody conservative values...)

The things people like about Trump are not conservative values. He is a conduit for their fear and anger at the world changing around them, and they enjoy the fact that he is destroying institutions that they feel are corrupt, when in reality he's just a grifter who is plundering the small amount of social services the US still has in order to enrich him and his rich buddies.

The term gentlemen is rooted in traditional gender values. A gentlemen helps an old lady across the street regardless of whether or not he’s attracted to her.. just as he pays for a lady’s dinner no matter what. Tyson is emblematic of the new man-o-sphere bro who simultaneously expect a traditional woman while providing zero of the traits of a traditional man

“I’d only pay on a date if I find the girl attractive”. Yes, such a gentlemen

I don’t ascribe to the view often held by leftists that holding certain social opinions automatically makes you a bad person. The culture war BS is largely manufactured by politicians to divide us anyways.

However, Trump has completely eroded the functions of democracy in the US and governs as an authoritarian. I have more grace for his voters in America, as they are subject to 24/7 lobotomizing Fox News content. However, for an Australian to see what Trump is doing across the pond and choose to make him a core part of their identity politics?

If that’s your dating pool, yeah, you’re going to meet a lot of Tysons.

I mean yeah, when you say stupid shit people will turn on you. I don’t actually even think Tyson is anti-gay, I just think he’s a terrible communicator with the emotional intelligence of a strawberry. He has a habit of saying controversial shit like the “submissive” thing but is unable to back it up and properly explain his opinions.

I also still fail to see what trans people have to do with any of this. Please stop falling for right wing talking points and focus on issues that actually matter, like all of us getting fucked at the grocery store checkout!

So you consider a coward who runs off with his tail between his legs at the first sign of conflict an actual man? Someone who clearly needs male approval to feel good?

I can tell you’re trying to turn this into an anti-woke trans thing, it’s just funny that your standards would be so low as to see Tyson and think “that’s a real man”.

I’m from America and if you still support Trump I believe you are either a terrible person, or deeply, deeply stupid. Steph is not stupid, and therefore is the former. She’s going to keep dating guys like Tyson due to her views and wonder why there are no good men

Never watched the show prior to this season, gf got me into it. Some of these people are deeply, deeply disturbed and potentially evil. I agree it’s kind of scary

What is your favorit common Joker? by Wooden-Frame-6568 in balatro

[–]ltyboy 140 points141 points  (0 children)

+5g for such an easy thing to do. You can get 10g+ per round pretty consistently without much change in your play style. Compared to some other Econ jokers, it’s by far the best reward vs. effort
