You have not eaten beans the right way until you have eaten FABADA.

What makes FABADA so great is that it’s also a hex code for a very sexy pink.

That’s not Satan, that’s the snake. Satan’s just an asshole who does God’s bidding testing and tempting people like he did with Job. And it’s not the same as the nake or lucifer.
The ‘snake’ was the one who told Eve that God was lying to them, and that they would not die if they ate the forbidden fruit. This one is the cool guy who’s the equivalent of Prometheus.
Lucifer isn’t even in the bible at all. It’s a Roman mythical explanation for Venus because it was something bright that appeared sometimes in the sky, and it somehow got conflated with the bad versions of the “morning star” mentioned in the bible later. Funny enough, Jesus is also referred as “morning star” too. Also the King of Babylon, I think. “Morning star” may be just a saying to describe a characteristic, not a character, like “you are a rising star”.

They need to make mining drones mandatory, too. Humans have no business being in holes. They are not their holes, they do not belong in them.
I’m looking at you, spelunkers.

It’s not a dichotomy. Capitalism inevitably leads to oligarchy, and oligarchies are just authoritarianism rich people being the ones opressing the people. Both China and Russia ended up as oligarchies too, even though they started claiming to be ‘communist’.

A way to prevent authoritarianism is the division of powers, but that only works until the enemies of the people work together to take over all divided powers.

The only system that has proven to work in the public’s best interest so far is social democracy. But even that is hanging by a thread, as it requires higher levels of public education and better control over corruption to maintain.

Yeah. Tankies always forget you can’t have socialism without democracy, and either no government or a government that is strictly from the bottom up, and fascists gladly play along with that facade as it works in their interests.

“Authoritarian communism” is an oxymoron.

And not an “emphasis” kind of oxymoron like “bittersweet” or “impossible solution”, or a “poetic” kind like “living dead”.
An “absolutely impossible” kind of oxymoron. like “married bachelor” or “squared circle”.

Apparently, deboning your meat before eating it is not “manly”. You have to chew the bones, like an “alpha wolf” or something.

It’s the other way around.

X is a “if you build it, they will come” situation. They were already around, they were just too cowardly to come out of the woodwork into the open.

They sure love their fantasy way more than reality.

Great. Now I have to wear aging makeup because of my baby face.

There are banks that will generate a pin for every transaction that is not using the physical credit card or associated phone, or that is over a certain amount, requiring you to carry the phone at all times.

Nah. Someone would make up some convoluted and confusing template, pass it to Trump as “freedom dates”, and he’s sign it without reading.

And then head right back to the golf course to mooch even more tax dollars.

It goes the other way around for daddy.

Dwarves are not small in the first place anyway. Small races are below 1,20m tall. Dwarves are around 1,30-1,50m tall. They are short, but not small.
In comparison, humans are only 10-30cm taller on average with their 1,60-1,80m heights.

They may appear smaller because they are stockier and wider. So unless you see them next to a human, you won’t realize they are only about a head or so sorter.

Discworld dwarves are something else.

That idiot CEO is doing idiot CEO things.

Everyone knows that if he keeps bowing down to Musk’s pressure and enshitificating the platform, people will leave for greener pastures as soon as there’s an enticing alternative like they did with X.

CEOs surround themselves with the most conceited and naive of all echo chambers.
They live in an imaginary world in which their backward opinions work better than what has been proven to work time and time again by every research ever done on any subject. They will one day wake up to a blue sky, claim it’s actually pink with green polka dots, and blame “the woke agenda” or some such nonsense when they are obviously proven wrong.

The closest analogy I’ve ever heard for what modern CEOs have become is “Like a bunch of Naked Emperors jerking each other off while shitting all over everyone below them”. As accurate as disgusting.

All horses all of the time.

The American politicians basically barred the ability for any other party to get into power, until people gave up going to vote, and fascism won by a third of the votes.

It all started before the Red Scare. The moment the Robber Barons got their plans thwarted, they started planning so it would never happen again, and they played the long, long game.

I wonder how will be the US’s method for ‘accidental demise’ moving foward.
Defenestration is already taken by Russia, but Trump is not that original, so I’m guessing he’ll use the same method, considering he’s working form Putin and all.

There was not a second in history in which Musk wasn’t nuts.
Remember those crap flamethrowers?
Didn’t even compress the fuel . They were shit. Can’t even deal with a nest of human-eating ants with that crap.

That would not work. Pushing an object is transmitting kinetic energy to it. The object will push back, and energy would not be distributed to the whole object at the same time.
If the object cannot be altered in any way, then the energy would not be transferred to it, and if it has enough plasticity to absorb the kinetic energy, it would be spread in a wave to the tip. A wave that would always be slower than light.

Now stop fooling around and give Ruyi Jingu Bang back to Sun Wukong.
