“we’re keeping Kuya Bert, but you can have Gary, that guy fucking sucks”
There was a really good video clip of a protestor in 2020, paraphrased: “we came out to protest, then the cops started hitting our heads with batons. we started wearing helmets, so they gassed us. We started bringing masks, so they attack us. Now we bring shields and they call them weapons. Someone is escalating this, but it’s not us”.
Basically, any evidence that you plan to defend yourself gives the cops, in their mind, cause to attack. Since you planned to defend yourself. Except fire. Cops are scared as fuck of fire.
My favorite bit of bear lore is the etymology of the word “bear”
The English word “bear” comes from Old English bera and belongs to a family of names for the bear in Germanic languages, such as Swedish björn, also used as a first name. This form is conventionally said to be related to a Proto-Indo-European word for “brown”, so that “bear” would mean “the brown one”.[1][2] However, Ringe notes that while this etymology is semantically plausible, a word meaning “brown” of this form cannot be found in Proto-Indo-European. He suggests instead that “bear” is from the Proto-Indo-European word *ǵʰwḗr- ~ *ǵʰwér “wild animal”.[3] This terminology for the animal originated as a taboo avoidance term: proto-Germanic tribes replaced their original word for bear—arkto—with this euphemistic expression out of fear that speaking the animal’s true name might cause it to appear.[4][5] According to author Ralph Keyes, this is the oldest known euphemis
Did I miss raktajino?
Edit: I did not, raktajino snubbed
we were inspired by the corporate motto, “Don’t be evil”
No you’ve got this all screwed up. It’s supposed to say…“Don’t, be evil”
Just put it in the replicator

Shit was fucked in 2006. Sub prime mortgage lending crisis inflated the price of homes, which is why they all went underwater two years later
Just throw some crackers in their slop, the hogs go crazy for variety
They’ve been back for a while, at least over here
If you mean top right, it seems like that’s the #1 pussy getter
Being aware of it is the first step. It’s the same rush you get from cursing when in pain, or punching a pillow/wall when you’re upset. The flood of anger, especially righteous anger, can be it’s own reinforcement. Stop giving yourself that stimulation. You’ll feel agitated and restless, but you need to break the habit. Substitute a different habit. Check out cute animal videos from The Dodo, or enjoy some Primitive Technology, or watch some Veg Village recipe videos.
Reminds me of the story of the Alexander Matrosov memorial. A Ukrainian Soviet soldier who blocked the opening of a Nazi machine gun nest by shoving his body into it, absorbing gunfire and shielding his comrades, enabling them to advance on the position. The fascist government of Ukraine dismantled the memorial in his hometown of Dnipro, and is attempting to rewrite history but claiming he had never been to Ukraine and was a Turkic Bashkir using a false name.
Think about how dumb the average classmate you had in school was. Now, realize they’re an adult who goes around “explaining things” to others without a teacher correcting them. That is the state of Internet comments
Why is Maduro invading the energy drinks?
Due to US sanctions against Venezuela, they had to close the Panera Bread in Caracas. The only way Maduro can get the lemonade that kills people is by going next door to Guyana
You’re thinking of Guarana. Venezuela is trying to annex Guano
When my wyze vacuum starts up, it loudly robotically says “starting cleaning” and wherever my dog is in the house, she flings herself directly at the vacuum in a frothing rage and follows it around the house trying to bite its spinning brush for corners. Whenever I say “starting cleaning”, my dog goes for the vacuum too
That is one way to get their attention
