Better the first date than 6 months in.

The segment was good but you fucking with them still wastes their time so they don't scam someone else who would be less diligent. It's still good to waste their time. It just sucks that late stage capitalism is forcing them to do the job.

They're not going to survive

Are you kidding me?

Alexander Bell stole the telephone.

Edison regularly stole inventions from Tesla among others.

Steve Jobs fucking mind raped Woz.

The American Dream is taking someone else's hard work and profiting off of it.

Christ...this needed to be major news a year ago. We really need to get banks out of the payment business but fear that they are pulling an Intuit and will make the FedNow system more challenging to use down the road.

We do.

Nationalize SpaceX.

She's sorry....she got caught.

That didn't happen.

And if it did, it wasn't that bad.

And if it was, that's not a big deal.

And if it is, that's not my fault. We are here.

And if it was, I didn't mean it.

And if I did, you deserved it.

It may have started as falling for a conman. But at a certain point, you have to ask yourself at what point is each individual responsible for his threats to democracy.

You either are a willing and active participant or you are willfully ignorant.

I've met people on both sides of that spectrum and I'll tell you right now, they no longer can claim they fell to his con.

It would be deeply, deeply ironic if Mexico decided to build a wall to keep US out.

Tightened up visa requirements, making it require an act of Congress to be able to visit Cancun.

I predict a brexit-like reaction from the alt-right.

"I wanted a wall but not against me!"

That's the thing I don't get. These "strongmen" are fucking cry babies.

Like the media darling Kyle Rittenhouse. Fucking cries while he's on the stand.

Beer pong Brett Kavanaugh fucking crying on national TV from questioning.

Trump, literally, any day every day about how he's some sort of victim.

How the alt right sees these men as the paragons of strength and leadership is beyond me.

Say I buy a tomato. Tomato is sold to me as tomato, grown in a green house. It's a good tomato.

I bring it home and I cut into it to make salsa and find a razor blade. I didn't see any markings on the outside. I don't know how it got there.

I go back to the store and say, "Dude, what the fuck is up with the razor blade?!"

They say, "Oh, we noticed a lot of people buying tomatoes to cut them so we decided to include a razor blade! You're welcome!"

I say, "But I don't want a razor blade. I just want the tomato!"

They say, "Oh....that's too bad. We think you'll really like the razer blade."

I say, "I don't care. I want a tomato without razor blades."

They say, "ok. Just make sure you present this very specific, very distinct bar code to the check out person."

I go and buy another tomato, present the barcode.

I bring it home and it has a different type of blade inside it.

I go back to the store and they say, "Well, you opted out of blade model a. This is blade model b."

I consented to buy a tomato. Not to buy a razer blade.

I consented to install Windows OS, not fucking copilot, Cortana, Xbox central, etc.

I should have full control over my OS, regardless of who makes it. Even Ubuntu Linux had some sketchy adware that had to be removed (this was like Ubuntu 18 or something can't remember).

I agree with you, generally.

The hard part is convincing every other alt-right winger. They aren't convinced by research and facts.

Ironically, it's their feelings that matter more and since they "feel" like indoctrination is happening, it must be true.

"The damn libs must have given her fake curriculums."

Or "She just got bought by the deep state."

Or "Now SHE'S going to indoctrinate the kids!"

There was a porn video of a popular French girl saying "Oui" over and over again.

It sounded so funny that I couldn't nut. Then I did.
