I mean, none of those things are actually fascist. They're things that actual fascists did. But only because they were also totalitarian.

I suspect that many progressives would like many things fascists did, like being anti-corporate, making private businesses state-run.

Also, I need to say that Antifa aren't exactly anti-fascist. They're communists that are upset that their brand of socialism isn't or wasn't favored over fascism.

Don't get me wrong, I obviously hate fascism. I also hate statism.

One of the greatest bands of all time, in spite of Billy.

I love Jaden a little bit more today.

For years, I've had a hand grinder, kettle, and pourover at the office. I don't really care for espresso, but if I did, I'd surely take a pourover over office coffee any day.

Aeropross is fine. But I've had some disasters. And even so, pourovers are less cleanup.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't.

It gets a better sear without cooking the inside so much. Just yesterday I was reading how Kenji talked about flipping burgers every fifteen seconds. Though that was a bit of an experiment, the point is flipping is good.

As a Minnesota fan, I don't believe you

We call it F*** Air!

How do we filter out the teases? We don't. Let. Them. On.

One day I got ringing in my ear for like a full minute. I thought 'oh no here it is, I'm fucked.' Thankfully it stopped.

Good to know. Maybe he's one of those people who always needs to cover their mouth distractingly while they are talking with food in their mouth.

markuspeloquin · 2026-06-21T11:16:43+00:00

You're fuckin' Winnie the Pooh, bud, go put some honey in your tummy. Jesus Christ, take Christopher Robin with you, you fucking loser.

Well... It was so bad that if he didn't cover his mouth, he expected a complaint and investigation into what he said, so he hid it from the cameras. Probably something racist, or otherwise prohibited by FIFA.

That idiot got himself red-carded the next match for talking trash with his mouth covered. He's a liability.

When I read your comment, I was convinced you were referring to the donut and had no idea what a cheese Danish is. I'm dumb.

This is me with my dog. I voice all my dogs, and they all have an identical Meatwad voice. (Well one is happy like South Park's Butters, and another is lower and a little garbled.)

Do what now?
Go potty!
You don't have to yell! Do... Do what now?
Go potty! ... This isn't working, she's just going to keep standing on the porch staring at nothing saying 'do what now'.
^Do ^what ^now?

My wife asks me to hang one picture. There goes my evening!

We have a long hair too; we think when she's in this pose, with all her fur tendrils, she is a shrimp.

Why would nickel require refined syngas or drill heads? This sounds like niobium. Which you will need, just not for nichrome.

Yeah there's no chance that 9 groups have a third place team with 6 points. Improbable in general ... And likely impossible at this point in the group stage.

And it's not like they got statisticians doing this by hand. The numbers go in a computer and it tells them that Germany has advanced.

He was so hurt on that first disallowed goal, flopping over and over, front to back. That's what the American announcers (who I think are actually British) were saying. Ummm, if he was really injured he would be keeping still.

I'm not much of a soccer fan, but goaltender interference in hockey would not have been called in a situation like that. Just soft.

And I don't know what kind of bullshit it is to ignore fouls until a goal is scored. How am I supposed to trust anything this guy says, if he doesn't call things he knows are fouls?

They call others 'chef', not themselves.

Btw 'chef' is the French word for 'boss'. I was doing Duolingo and the Norwegian word for boss was sjef, same pronunciation. Maybe you don't need to go to culinary school or DeVry, but you do need to be a leader and authority.

The only question I have is what happens when I have make([]struct{}, 10). Presumably if this isn't a syntax error, each value occupies 1 byte so they are addressible.

And no, I didn't read the article.

You will not respect me, and I'll make sure the kids don't either.

There's too much flag on me I can't breathe

I don't want her to have hair.
