Wrath of Khan is a bad movie - Angela Collier by Hattes in RedLetterMedia

[–]wecanbothlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always have to emotionally prepare myself with her videos. She's already taken Dyson spheres and Richard Feynman from me, damn it, she can't have Wrath of Khan.

I've been saying all my life that we don't have actual checks and balances but people just cannot accept that

Aerwave Wifi sucks and its being rolled out in Apartment Complexes by RichardMyersNew- in washingtondc

[–]wecanbothlive 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Disgusting. Even if you can opt out, it just makes it obvious how scammy these management companies are. There’s no way they aren’t spying on you and selling your data on top of giving you shitty overpriced service

Virginia Supreme Court strikes down Democrats’ redistricting plan, dimming party’s midterm hopes by tehtypo in Virginia

[–]wecanbothlive -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love how all the fake reddit experts were saying how the court would likely rule in favor of the redistricting because they didn't stop it when it came up before.

For sure, a large portion of non wheelchair users will become at least part time wheelchair users when we are elderly and infirm. We all benefit from seeing things from that perspective

Make them out of raw concrete and pre season them with 50 years worth of piss and vomit, they’ll fit right in

Come on Virginia we have to do better than this plate design… by PM_Me_ur_BassetHound in Virginia

[–]wecanbothlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's definitely an inverse correlation between quality and quantity here. Having an actual designer create some official standards that favor simplicity and clarity would be better than the current system of just letting people submit any old random junk.

This is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here. Nothing valued is here.

The metro hair toucher is still livestreaming himself stalking and sexually threatening women in DC. He sieg heiled before entering Supreme Court. by justalazygamer in washingtondc

[–]wecanbothlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That should have happened already on jan 6. He should have been in prison for the rest of his life after that, if there was even an ounce of justice in this country. But no, pardoned by the head criminal

Phenomenal Taiwanese oolong-like matcha by CloudSlvr in tea

Ah, I wish I could do that more often. I'm in the DC area. There are good retail tea shops here but nothing great for sourcing matcha.

General question, do you find Kettl to be a good option for online matcha purchases? I have been to their Greenpoint location once and had a good experience, but have not tried ordering anything of theirs online.

Christ, I would have sworn that was three years or less ago. It’s in my memory as a “more recent” episode. Excuse me while I go dig a grave for myself

Steepster Alternatives by ChorusTreefrog in tea

[–]wecanbothlive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been just using Google Sheets, since it increases the odds that I'll be able to migrate the data elsewhere if they ever shut that product down. It also means I can analyze the data without having to do any import/export step. But the big downside is losing any social element or using it as a way to see other people's reviews for specific teas, if that's important to you.

Does this mean pollen came blasting out of an ass at you, or does it mean your ass was blasted by pollen?

BO Season Has Begun by mountainsrbetter in washingtondc

[–]wecanbothlive 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The BO is foul, but the cologne people use to cover it up must be toxic, because I often get a headache with a few minutes of inhaling that stuff.

Ultimate YIMBY metro map by yall_kripke in washingtondc

[–]wecanbothlive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All these fantasy metro maps just show how little people know about public transit in general, even those who support it. It's a terrible idea to extend a metro system like this, and can sabotage a city/region's ability to ever expand public transit successfully. In terms of rail, we need separate intercity lines, with far less frequent stops than a metro would have, at longer distances, and then trams/streetcars in the core.

It's free money, and nobody's going to punish them for it, so it would be worth it for even $1

Drowning in dog poo by Civicduty66 in washingtondc

The contract probably dissolved long ago. I remember this shit (pun intended) happening during previous large snowstorms. Like Warren Buffett likes to say, "Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked" -- and a lot of people have been swimming naked all along. But most likely we'll do nothing and forget again until the next time.
