I did, but I don’t care anymore.

…I’ll see myself out. :P

In all seriousness I just don’t know if I have it in me to keep paying attention to a trainwreck that I have no control over. I can only help my local community in some limited manner, anything outside of that all I can do is vote and yell at a “representative” that is bribed to not listen.

Thirties doesn’t meet any of the three criteria.

Math checks out. Had all my relationships in my 20s. Haven’t had a single one in my 30s and I’m going on 38 now.

kak·i·sto·cra·cy

noun

Government by the least suitable or competent citizens of a state.

I appreciate the kind words! Empathy is proving to be increasingly more rare in society so I appreciate you wanting to express that.

That in pretty much every single sense of the word I’m an absolutely pathetic loser.

I didn’t think I’d ever be anything special, but I also didn’t think I’d be 38 and single for going on a decade, living in someone else’s garage, working in a factory in a dead end position with no degree and not an ounce of self worth to even presume to choose a direction.

10 year old me couldn’t wait to be an adult, but after seeing me I think 10 year old me would never want to grow up knowing what I’d eventually become lol

Man it’s weird how things happen. I was literally just listening to Bo Burnhams “funny feeling” this morning and he has a line about “Robert (Bob) Igers face” and I thought hmm I actually don’t get that, I don’t know who he is. Then I open Lemmy and see this lol

It was just meant to be a joke not some serious documentation of information meant to be spread as absolute fact. We’re in a comics group at the moment lol

“He’s got that totally awesome plan called Tarrifs™ that is supposed to make rainbows and sunshine come pouring out of my ass and we’ll all be happy again!”

…oh… Wait…

Oh God yeah… I only recently learned that apparently I’m a white Steve Urkel…

Ugly and with a voice like that. It was when I realized that, I realized God is real and he’s an absolute son of a bitch lol

It’s a tele-tele-phone!

It’s why I have next to no pictures of myself. I could never take selfies because I hate seeing myself lol

Hell my phone camera now is advanced enough that it has the ability to do “astrophotography” on its own without a telescope. The pixel series of phones after 4 has an astrophotography mode, the “ai” processing slightly corrects for star trailing. It’s been pretty crazy to just point my phone up and catch Andromeda or the Orion nebula!

That’s true and I can just plug it into my computer afterwards and do post processing!

Absolutely! Just learning the positions of everything now and being able to describe them to people during the day has been pretty awesome. “Useless” knowledge, but I’ve always loved space lol

I “do astrophotography.”

…I strap my phone to a telescope and I’ve been loving it lol

Tariffs are taxes, but they’re taxes for companies not individuals, and they’re only applied to importing, so they won’t affect me.

Typical Magoo (literally my dad in 2016): “you can’t tax business owners, they’re going to just make everything more expensive for us! They pass on the burden to us!”

Also Magoo: “Yay tarrifs! They are a tax on business but that won’t get passed on to me!”

The Magoo motto: Whatever words I need to use to suit my purpose I will use, to hell with reality.

First, in many states the electors are bound by law to support the candidate that wins the popular vote in their state. The penalties may vary, but the intent is clear: to make sure people realize it is against the law in that state

Honestly this is so stupid if I understand their reasoning for existing in the first place. Unless I’m misunderstanding they were supposed to exist literally for this exact election, where the people elected an absolute atrocity of a person and “our betters” would recognize that and vote against him.

We should just do away with it if we have no interest in utilizing them for their actual purposes.

I am hoping for a work of art. I am expecting

starfield, but with a medieval coat of paint.

They’re too greedy to build a new engine and insist on sticking with the limited creation engine so they can keep churning out uninspired copy paste crap. It’s cheaper than the alternative and they don’t want to have to learn something new which also costs time(money).

I gave up on so-called “AAA” dev corporations. I hate that they squander good IPs keeping them locked up because they own them… :(

“The Demonrats voted for Nazi Kamala so they don’t deserve food! We’re taking federal tax income from NY communist state and Calicommufornia and subsiding Fantastic Florida Patriots food! Oh, and they’re the party of hate not us! Fuck Democrats, hope they all die! Merry Christmas to all!”
