Most standups are bad because they’re not used as a quick collaboration tool, they’re used as a demonstration to prove you’re working, and then the least productive people talk the most because they’re the most desperate to prove they’re working.
Why are you reading this? Go do something worthwhile.

Yeah, but what if someone also set a precedent that if you’re the victim of an admittedly awful terror attack, you can spend the next 20 years killing anyone you want.
I would disagree. I used to live in Rosman, NC, about an hour south of Asheville.
This is absolutely a precedented tragedy. It is run of the mill. That’s because of climate change. Because of climate change, these 100 year floods are occurring once a decade. Yes, this is the biggest in those hundred years, but there are communities who are enormously affected by this regularly.
Calling it unprecedented plays into climate deniers hands. It wasn’t normal. But it is becoming normal. It is precedented. We caused it. If it’s unprecedented, people will ignore it as an oddity, an outlier. But people living there should expect this.
Pouring it into his own mouth, mostly.
Bart Starr was pretty cool. Seems like a nice guy.
It’s göring to come back and bite them.
Maybe a little, gold sombrero on an armband.
That’s why I think it has to be someone who owns a bunch of publishers, like Microsoft. Like how Disney is not just Disney, but also Pixar, Marvel, ABC, ESPN, etc… It’s why people shit on Paramount+. There’s just nothing there worth watching.
Think of it more like Netflix. Netflix was great, then the market fractured and Netflix enshitified in response.
What it would take here is for a publisher to become a real distributor in the space, but competition is weak right now. Just like it really took Disney wading in to disrupt Netflix, it would take someone equally large, like Microsoft, to disrupt Steam. Sorry Ubisoft, but you don’t cut it.
“Oh yeah, bud. That chicken sure was a jerk. Very spicy.”
My inlaws from Illinois, probably.
And infinitely more watchable.
Sort of. She also has some Russian ties.
While I don’t think she is some kind of Soviet black ops plant, she’s secured funding many times by less savory means. That does mean the things she says and does require a little extra thought though.
I do wish it wasn’t part of the “assassinate the left, cozy towards center” mentality that democrats are embracing.
I have a cool blog I made for class with lots of techy stuff. Can you check it out and tell me what you think?
There were some aspects I liked. They demonstrated some construction techniques people could have used to build something similar 5000 years ago. That was neat. They used some carpentry found in archeological digs from the time. I am a sucker for some of the old PBS Nova specials on how ancient Egyptians build obelisks, pyramids, things like that.
It just gets buried in the schlocky pseudo-science really quickly. It’s a hard pivot from sewage systems, to people riding dinosaurs like horses, to lap joints.
Their stance was that Noah only brought the little ones on the boat and left anything big behind. Then the little ones died out.
I have been to the Ark. It’s weird.
They have some interesting exhibits where it’s obvious that someone gave it a lot of thought. They dug in and thought about the tools and techniques that someone would have had available to build something like this 5000 years ago.
In some ways, it’s a real monument to human achievement. But then the next exhibit just shrieks that there were definitely dinosaurs on the Ark and if you believe differently you’re dumb as shit.
2/10. Food was awful.
Yeah, there’s a lot of contradiction and apologetics when it comes to Bush. He can’t be an evil, cunning, crafty, bumbling ignoramus, all at once. He’s definitely an idiot who knowingly employed some evil people. In my mind, that makes him pretty awful, but some people feel differently for some reason.
I hate this brand of pseudo-intellectualism.
Adversity doesn’t mean you’re right. Lack of adversity doesn’t mean you’re wrong. It just means some people agree with you and some people disagree. That’s it.
There are a billion ways that people are suffering. You can talk about any of them. Inventing new ones doesn’t mean you care. It means the opposite.
Crazy to know that Cleopatra was born closer to the creation of Halo: Combat Evolved than to the Great Pyramid of Giza.
