Crazy Cat Ladies.

Crazy College Professors

Crazy High School Teachers

Crazy Elementary Teachers

They obviously did a fine-ass job on you.

Seriously, I know it's tradition, but this is ridiculous. Do you guys get paid per post? Like, if you post a story 3 times with 3 slightly different wordings, does that get you paid 3 times as much?

The World Wonders

This isn't even an online-retailer thing, or an Amazon thing, this trick is as old as sales themselves.

in the weeks leading to the sale, slowly mark it all up. Sale comes, 25% off. People flock to your store.

In reality, due to the slow ramp up of the prices in the weeks prior to the sale, the purchaser's actual savings were much less than the advertised 25%

Sales are scams, meant to drive traffic in. Always has been, always will be.

We gave up our tungsten lamps with their beautiful light... for this?!

Fuck this. Nah. Vayance todos al carajo con esta mierda.

Fucking tech bros man, two-faced liars.

Save energy! Conserve! All these tech bros preaching, and the instant they seize on another way to make money fast, they burn up all their so-called "ethics."

I personally blame college professors, who for a century have been teaching and preaching in the US, starting with New York in the 1920's, the hate that is Communism and Marxism.

Their students taught the 50's "Free thinkers" and Beatnicks, and those guys taught the 60's filth, and that filth taught the filth that taught you, likely.

That 60's filth is running the world now. How's it working out? not very well? No?

Hear, hear!

You're not allowed to kill anyone, asshat.

Why is it the Left always resorts to violence as Option #1 and assassinations as Option #2?

You don't hear people in my circles talking like that. But I read lots of comments of people from the left that says "He should be shot" or "should be hurt" or other such bullshit

The Left has a real violence problem, and no matter how you try to hide it.. it's starting to really show.

Maybe we should put them down like the rabid dogs they are.

There. How did that sound? Does it sound like you? Like your friends? Is that how you talk?

We don't think like that. Seems you do. What does that say about you?

Sorry, had to do it. It was just there,man.

But, on a serious note.. I saw vid of a drone swarm in China gone wrong, and it torched a town.

Imagine drone swarms designed for that.

Begun, the Drone Wars have. Born in the Ukraine/Russia war.

UK, your most pressing issue to your own sovereigngty and security isn't "climate change" but Unchecked Immigration

Your London mayor is a Muslim.

You are being invaded by the boatload, your own people are starting to rebel against you, and yet you push harder -- arrest anyone who dares voice a differing opinion, and even more symbolic, shambolic and pathetic: You see people flying the Union Jack as racists. You see your own people in a very negative light.

Face reality or be overwhelmed inside of 10 more years, and be a -stan just like the others.

OMG, the HORROR, the sheer HORROR that a "Conservative" voice DARES to have a media outlet. Or 5 or 10.

All of you whinging, fuck off. Decades of pushing the Leftist viewpoint at the expense of all others have rendered media useless to shape public opinion in a way you leftists like it. No one trusts the media anymore, and you did it to yourselves.

Why? What's wrong with our Constitutional Republic?

Oh, that's right.... the thing that ours isn't a Mob Rule, like so many of you want.

Sorry. It will never be, despite all the hand-wringing and tooth-gnashing from the Left.

Mob Rule doesn't end well. What we have is just fine.

In fact, we should apply the concept of Electoral College to the States, that way, the great big megalopolises cannot dictate to the rural areas what kind of government the rural areas get.

It's not perfect, we can improve it. Neutralizing the outsized bias of the Big Cities would be a great place to start. Term Limits would be a great Next Step after that.

One can only hope this is the case.

Instead of being the Great Unifier, Social Media ended up being The Big Chisel: Finely crafted of the hardest vitriol, finely honed to a razor's edge by greed. A tool to split and divide.

Sometimes I get all misty-eyed for the days of One Common Dialog, which was put out by The Big Three (ABC / CBS / NBC)

Then I remember all of them lie like rugs, and Pulitzer and Hearst were the biggest liars before TV.

So yes. I hope this piece of shit is on the decline, and people think more.

Walks in parks are good. Pick up disc golfing, go for a round, that's two hours, a couple of joints, some Beethoven, and for those two hours, all is good. Until you shank one into the lake.

All valid points, but blaming the tool is stupid. Ultimately it is the user who rules.. or should.

Too many notifications? Reduce them or turn 'em off.

Addicted to TikTok? Seek help.

Not reading for fun? That's on you. My phone carries all of Harry Potter, a bunch of different, complete mangas, several tomes on hypervigilance, stress, etc, and they weigh.. nothing. I have a whole library at my fingertips on my phone, or pad.

Personal Responsibility stopped being a thing along with literacy. Everyone expects Big Uncle Government to help them out and make everything alright.

That's not how Life works.

Bullshit. What happened was a disgusting display by the people celebrating the dead person's death, praising the shooter, and then you have the retard on TV say "Oh the shooter's maga" when it turns out he'd been radicalized into his actions by trans and trans-supporting loons. Shooter has a trans lover.

But before any of that was known, that idiot had to go on TV and throw the blame at one group, when it was the exact opposite group that radicalized him.

I feel for his parents. I grieve for the nation. I feel nothing but contempt, loathing and scorn for the people who radicalized the shooter.

You people want to start a war. So far, you've had no takers.

Stop. Trying. Before you light a powderkeg you can't put out.

Yet, the story right beneath this one says 4000 Lufthansa layoffs coming because of Ai,

Pick a narrative and stick with it... or is /. posting stories from any whackadoo with cash?
