It’s a piece of media that’s critical of a fascist regime, and the person who says it’s fake is a .ml

if they ever answer, it’ll be dismissive about how all western media is biased against china/nk/Russia. That’s as close to an explanation of “why it’s fake” as you’ll get.

You should always be critical of any media that doesn’t have a concrete source though. I don’t personally know anything about radiofreeasia, so fuck if I know how reliable they are to begin with.

I say this in nearly complete seriousness:

Oooh, nice interrobang.

Especially annoying for people with astigmathism

Good point. I get annoyed with the little lines on my windshield caused by the wipers in rain that make lights stretch a bit (idk how to better explain that), I can’t imagine how terrible it must be for people with astigmatism

I just drove to Michigan and back, saw maybe 5 vehicles, including a semi covered in lights.

One just had a single dollar store strand around the hood, one had followed all the panel lines on the car, and the others were just wrapped a couple times over the top and underside.

None were flashing or twinkling, just steady lights.

As long as they don’t flash or move while driving, honestly I don’t think a couple strands would be that distracting except maybe a double-take

I can see how this many lights would be distracting for some. I would definitely look more than twice, if I had space around me.

Still though I think I’d just ask them to leave most of the lights off while actually on the move at most.

I’m absolutely sure there were at least four people on a crew going around to the reported ones, my point is a single person out for a stroll with a step ladder could do the same thing with barely any effort.

Incidentally, a single guy with a stepladder could totally cost the city another $1500 in about 10 minutes, and keep the crew in business.

1: this makes me want to travel 2,000 miles to stick every googly eye I have on every statue I can find

B- 1500 DOLLARS??? For SEVEN STATUES

Someone is ripping the city off, or someone in the office is stealing because that’s like… 5 minutes at each statue. 6 if you want to make sure no sticky residue is left.

My parents have between 1,000 and 3,000 books… Even they aren’t sure.

Last time they were neatly arranged I was a child.

Right now they have 3 floor-to-ceiling bookshelves stacked as densely as possible, 3 books deep, with as many stacked In and laying on top as can fit Ina rectangle 10ft tall, 4ft wide, and 18ish inches deep.

Plus a handful of waist high shelves, multiple moving boxes filled up that haven’t been emptied since they moved in2017 and a ton scattered all over the house…

They have more fantasy/Sci fi books than every library in a 50 mile radius combined.

I still have less than 30 books to my name since most of mine are digital, but I’ve been going to half price books looking to get physical copies of everything.

They barely watch dvds anymore since they’re spending like 100/mo on various streaming subs.

They’ve had a book in hand for as long as I can remember, nowadays it’s a Kindle but their disorganization has been present as long as I can remember, too.

Last year I watched their dog while they were out of town, and I reorganized their dvd collection in alphabetical order, keeping the various series together.

In less than 6 months it was essentially back to complete chaos. And in that time,according to them, they barely watched any dvds, they just looked through the shelves a bunch to figure out what they have.Why that requires them to pull movies out and out them back in a different spot, I’m not sure.

When I was a child, I once knocked every book off every shelf in the house.

Because I had 6 books in alphabetical order on my little shelf in my room. My mother kept rearranging them in as close a rainbow distribution as possible… I asked her to stop many times, but ultimately decided if you’re going to mess up my shelf, I will mess up yours.

Surprisingly this tactic worked, and they didn’t make me clean up the books by myself, they did most of it.

Their idea of “organizing” the books is “well most of the books in that series are close to each other, but a bunch of other random ones are mixed in, and entire genres have been rearranged many times so who knows what books we even actually have”

They have a similar way of organizing dvds. It’s infuriating.

Damn, if you keep stuffing words into their mouth, it’ll probably suffocate them.

surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?

… Right?

Yeah, I don’t think anyone would ask you “Are you okay with sitting at the bar with nazis?” yet plenty will happily judge you for saying “I’d rather not have to deal with MAGAts and their opinions”

Sorry but if your opinion is “trans people aren’t people” or “blacks need to know their place” then your opinion is shit and no the fuck I don’t have to listen to it

I see their junk at every thrift store and flea market in Ohio.

I legitimately thought they went out of business.

I was going to mention how “first world problems” this is, but then noticed it’s in mildly infuriating.

Same thing, basically.

Commenters are the worst.

Especially the ones that have custom profiles with names and shit.

Like Bro you aren’t fooling anyone, we all know you aren’t really a squid that flies.

Sorry about that, just a little transporter mishap.

I’ll get it sorted right away.

pats pattern buffer gently

I once dropped a water bottle out of my backpack, and couldn’t find it when I retraced my hike, but I did start noticing tons of trash everywhere.

So I started keeping a trash bag in my backpack, and filling a small bag every time I hike.

I may not have found my bottle, but I’ll make sure I clean up more than I left every time I’m out.

I’ve had plenty of times where I get home and empty my pockets of the trash I accumulated with no can nearby.

And if I try to put something in a can and it falls out, I’m taking it with me because I didn’t succeed in throwing it away.

Shrugging ans saying “well I tried” as you walk away isn’t even trying.

Fun fact! To make a super duper effective cleaning solution, all you have to do is mix ammonia and bleach! Make sure you do it in a small enclosed, dark room in order to ensure the solution binds together properly.

Big Cleaning doesn’t want you to know this because it cuts into their profits when people realize everyday chemicals can be combined to make better soaps and sprays than they sell.
