Except it just goes in a circle.

You shouldn’t repeat rumors you heard without any actual evidence at hand to back them up. That’s just baseless gossip. It’s poison spewing from your mouth to the ears of anyone who hears you.

I’ve also read convincing theories that he was on the spectrum, which could explain a lot of his challenges interacting with people, as well as his obsessive tendencies.

3 comedy points.

Finally a good grounded argument against Swift.

So it’s basically like when Elon Musk was whining about the same thing, and people made a point to spam his plane’s movements everywhere.

Well this clears everything up.

Who sneezed on my beans?

That’s how a lot of marketing astroturfing works though.

You let people post things organically, then you signal boost the shit out of them, and nobody can claim it’s false or contrived, because OP really did just post a thing they like.

I’m hoping this thread can provide some good alternatives for keeping a running “want to read” and “have read” list, because that’s all I use GR for, and I do like that it syncs with my kindle and updates that automatically when I finish a book. The reviews are typical social media junk, not very useful for finding books to read.

However, I do enjoy how they do the occasional giveaway. I got a free copy of Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower that way.

I just recently learned that OpenLibrary.org has a similar “want to read”/“currently reading”/“already read” feature, so I may migrate my lists over there when I have time.

Coming down from the trees was a pretty big blunder. Nothing but losses ever since.

I just want my phone to stop changing its to fucking it’s. Goddammit, stop fucking changing a valid word to something else.

You could train them to stop that.

Gotta train them that doing that doesn’t get them the outcome they want. I make it a policy with my cats that if they wake me up, they get yeeted to the basement.

When they were new, that meant picking them up and carrying them to the laundry room and closing the door. It evolved to me simply carrying them to the top of the stairs and setting them on the top step, and now all I have to do is open the door when they scratch or yowl and they scatter. It took a while, but now they only bother me at night when there’s another cat in the yard and they want to get to my window to look out.

I’m the opposite. I like it when the cat curls up on my feet, but I’m not a fan of just letting them stalk through the house and jump around freely when I’m trying to flipping sleep.

They can’t not do that, so they get shut out. And I taught them early on that if they yowl and scratch at the door on the middle of the night, they’re just gonna get launched down the stairs.

Cats only get to be the boss if you let them. They absolutely can be trained to not be total tyrants.

Closed, because of cats.

Oh and also for fire safety, I guess.

Go back to reddit, mate. Or parler, more like.

I was just tapping it on the side of the sink after rinsing it off and it came apart at the T joint. I thought about just using a spoon but figured the metal would scratch it up over time.

Let’s be honest here. Wanting to be a talking animal isn’t really any less weird than wanting to yiff one.

Trying to distance yourself from the latter by claiming the former is a futile effort.

But then you also have that very specific window of time when a lot of stuff especially SFX was done on video that can’t be upscaled. Babylon 5 fans weep.
