Motown is real music.

Real music, made by real people, at the very least. Is all of it great music? By no means, but I’ve got piles of 45s that prove it is real.

Unless… I’m not real, that is. A distinct possibility, to be sure.

I like my sugar with coffee and cream, actually.

When people say this about a frou-frou latte, I just tell them I don’t actually care - I usually drink black decaf but if I’m paying 6USD for a coffee, I’m making them work for it.

I’m going to go to a rifle range and harass people that don’t know how to shoot.

It’s kind of like… I dunno, a delicate balance. A good, subtle fragrance? Love catching a whiff. Someone wearing something that smells like they soaked their whole body in straight alcohol? Kill me.

Like, putting in the effort to pick out a pleasant scent, male or female and getting recognized is the good part. Wearing buckets of the stuff should be considered olfactory assault.

Anker’s eufy brand claimed all local storage for their security systems but they were routing everything through AWS for displaying the feed - hence not trusting them but as far as I know no major, flock-enabling scandals or anything.

Also, they’re a company. Yet another reason not to trust them. By the time I’m finished writing this post they could’ve done a bunch of terrible stuff.

Soundcore is owned by Anker, who also own eufy. While I wouldn’t trust Anker any further than I could throw them, I have owned Soundcore products since they were still branded as just Anker.

I keep a pair of Liberty 3(? Maybe) as my “kitchen” ear buds and I took my Q30s around the world with me (and it absolutely shows, they’re thrashed). They’re fine audio products but for the price - Amazing.

The beauty is, even on Microslop OS, You can just change the icon. To whatever you want.

The Spanish is a bit easier since it literally translates to “Zone Free of…” followed by a list of things it’s a zone free from but I agree, since a “drug free zone” and a “gun free zone” mean that there is, ideally according to the sign, no drugs or guns but a “weapons free zone” would mean you’re free to shoot combatants on sight, whereas a “weapon free zone” would mean an area without weapons.

The reason that there are less ‘right wing’ people in academia is that academia usually involves research and understanding of the world and its systems and most ‘right wing’ opinions do not hold up to investigation. So, therefore, reality itself appears to have a liberal bias as opposed to admitting you’re wrong about anything.

That’s the root of it, basically.

For the record, I agree with the statement, for what it’s worth.

UGR-A baby!

Sounds like your country may be becoming the US soon then. Google must’ve bought early access to his tweets…

I like to drive. I like being in control of my car and, although I don’t really care about “owning” it, I don’t like the level of connectivity “Driverless” cars have. I’d never want one.

That said, I hate other drivers. Staring at their phones, not signaling, speeding, generally driving like a jackass. If giving up driving meant that no one else was driving either? Maybe. I just might.

I’d much prefer trains and buses, with reasonable cycling infrastructure nearby (to include lockable bike garages).

I saw a dude with no arms drive a car.

Hopefully the resale price on the 11 tanks (it won’t) then.

I doubt they would ever need to draft up to 42 based on the US population and the willingness of psychos to want to a) kill people or b) get paid to kill people via promises of a better life later as a veteran (Baby killer)

They need a draft once all those Action Hero wannabes get swatted down by Iranian drones and the Canadian troops start rolling in to annex the southern province.

Who knew Fallout would be right about the annexation but wrong about which way it went?

Then it’s the plot to Yakuza 0.

So close, yet so far

I try to reduce my coffee/caffeine consumption but if I get a coffee at a diner, you’d better believe I’m slamming five or more.

Ah, interesting, that’s… What? Wait, I’m doing five things at once. I just, ah, kind of zoned out for a minute… Hang on.

And I just restart whatever animation loop I’m in.
