Alien just means from somewhere other than earth. Another dimension pretty much fits the bill, there. Like, you’re simultaneously being too and not enough pedantic for your argument to really hit. The uncanny valley of pedantry

“Well, he’s one of us (senators) so he’s definitely got the job” - the fuckheads

You forget that I can now describe the code I want faster than I can write it. Frankly it’s irrelevant if the code at the end doesn’t do what I want or that I don’t know what it does. The speed, baby. Never before could I push this much code this fast. 200+ new bugs a day, four times as fast as I used to be pushing features. The code base is worse than it’s ever been and it’s only going to get faster from here. This is the future, baby - the vibe coder

Defense: “Yes judge. We did the anticompetitive check. It says here ‘price go down’”

Judge: Price go down?

Defense: “Yes, ‘price go down’”

Judge: By the gods! Can’t be a monopoly, then! Merger approved!

Plaintiff: There’s no fucking way this is real, right?

There are profits to be made, who cares about killing off all life on the planet? - capitalists

Can’t be. Look at St Peter’s feet in the Vatican. They’re basically gone after centuries of people touching them. If old boy here had the same treatment, he’d be nothing but a gold smear

The more blades, the deeper the cut. The first blade pulls the hair up, causing the next blade to cut the hair below the skin level. Causing irritation and ingrown hairs.

Plastic cartridges need multiple blades, though, cause they can’t hold the blades in enough tension to get a good cut otherwise.

Gods I fucking wished any of them actually did liberation. They just buy slaves and then feel bad about it (but it’s okay, the slave really likes them as a master 🤮)

Give me “I Got Reincarnated into a World of Slavery. So I Killed All the Slavers”

The closest I’ve seen to that is “The World’s Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat”, but uh, it’s really far off from that concept. They do kill a bunch of billionaires buying slaves in the in medias res of the first episode, though. Which is nice

What’s your favorite and why is it From Bureaucrat to Villianess: Dad’s Been Reincarnated ?

The resistance of the Hobbits is true, but stronger still is the circumstances in which the ring came to your possession. Bilbo stumbled upon it, Frodo inherited it, Sam took it to keep it safe. All three resisted for a very long time. Only Frodo gave into the temptation while the ring was in his possession.

Meanwhile, Déagol found it on accident in the river. Smeagol coveted it as a birthday gift. When Déagol refused to give it, Smeagol killed Déagol for it.

Fremen ramblings about walking the dunes, here. On gait hiding

• Cursed child wasn’t written by Rowling.
• She’s already had all the accolades she deserves. Insult her twice for every compliment, the TERF fuck that she is.

Yep, wiki mentions that. If that one is overturned, then it’s a three-way tie and death valley is still one of them(2013)

The record was made in 1913. So it’s been a bit, yeah?

Minneapolis is the second most bike friendly city in the US. Saint Paul is rapidly closing the distance. This is policy driven.

Brother, we rarely get snow in October even before climate change started really messing with things. Used to be mid-to-late November for first snow pack, now it’s mid December and it’s a toss up if we’ll even keep the snow pack all winter now.

Anyways, people still bike in the winter here.

Yes, fat tire bikes are very popular here in the twin cities.

The truck pictured is an example of truck-kun, an isekai trope where isekai protagonists get killed by a truck to begin their journey to a life in another world.

Yeah, thanks for the advice. I can tell that they’re trying to flood me with information in order to get me to shut up, so I can’t make myself read those links. I’ve tried a couple of times, but even with material I’m extremely open to… non-fiction is a no-go for my narrative keyed brain. The ADHD is strong with me.

I really should’ve shut the hell up once I realized I put my foot in my mouth earlier. Sorry, and thanks for the grace

Yeah, man. I didn’t realize how much I was struggling connecting my thoughts to what I was saying and kept trying to make it clear, which always comes off as me engaging in pedantry. Sorry man, got my foot stuck in my mouth today. Cheers
