I see this opinion often enough, so I have to ask. How much money do you think Swift’s parents put into her career? How big do you think a parental college fund should be to give their kids a solid leg up? How does that initial financial backing discredit her as she continues writing a massive catalog of successful songs?

Et al, brute?

Hey anti-genocide democrats, are we freeing Palestine yet?

I counted 5 and then 7 steps across 2 breaths. Gotta be at least 50c per step for my to consider it any further. I probably wouldn’t accept until $1. And even then, casual cardio like walking would ramp up breathing faster anyway.

Topping for baked potato, baked potato soup, and other places where potato, sour cream, and onions may intersect

Trash the world.

Hi, I’m local. Here’s what we know: the public does not know a drone from a quadcopter. The public has never watched planes fly over. The public has never watched planes fly over at night. The public has never watched planes fly from Europe. The public has no concept of the fact that they have no concept of distance without knowing the size of the target in view. The public has no concept of the concept that they cannot determine speed without knowing distance. The public does not understand the “hovering” appearance of planes heading straight towards the. The public has no idea what the difference is between a hobby drone and a commercial/military drone capable of hours of flight. The public has no idea how long the approach descent of a normal commercial jet lasts and has no concept of how “close” the multiple airports are to them. The public has no concept of the sound delay of a jet flying several thousand feet above.

It’s a fucking twilight zone episode

Edit: I knew I forgot one! We know people have never looked at stars before and identified Orion’s Belt as drones because they “didn’t move and have been there multiple nights in a row” (it’s December and he rises at sunset)

No, this was Jude Law and Nicholas Hoult and it was released this year

I bought a “mystery ticket” for $5 at a Regal and ended up seeing The Order. Pretty intense at times when you abstract to real life, pretty upsetting at times. Remember to be intolerant of the intolerant.

I have not been in a packed theater since Avengers Endgame. I have been to the theater dozens of times since then. Don’t go opening night or maybe even opening weekend. Most ticket sales at my AMC and Regal are prepurchased with assigned seats, so you can see what’s open and not blocked. You can move around anyway once inside. And all my local ones rebuilt the floor for a greater slope anyway

What are the symptoms of an hdmi cable having too little bandwidth?

Yeah, they’re not going to suddenly gain $50k+ cash for a down-payment to replace their home. Yes, a mortgage should be cheaper than rent but a renter probably can’t save an extra 3 year’s worth of rent to put it down.

Without movie context: blonde white man, traditional haircut, general frustration, devout determination

With movie context: he’s pissed that Barbie has so many freedoms and superior rights. It’s a woman’s world. Males are lower class and serve the women. And if you stop the movie 2/3 through, Ken/men take over the world in Barbie’s absence and take their revenge to live happily ever after. Conservative men tend to think the world has already been taken from them since they’re no longer supposed to catcall women walking, slap their secretaries’ asses, and generally blame this generally progressive trend for equal rights/freedoms as the reason they’re so unsuccessful in life. They don’t blame the economy, capitalism, imperialism, unsustainable growth, misrepresented postwar success, or politicized religious takes; they’ve been brainwashed to identify women as one of the outgroups taking away their resources in a zero sum game.

There’s some weird online connection issues on 360 that occur with certain modern routers. You get dropped randomly from the game. Annoyingly, the emulated 360 on One doesn’t skirt around the issue. It was annoying for Borderlands but made Left 4 Dead worthless on anything besides easy

I can’t beleive I’ve never noticed the subtitle pun before today

Wild. I was just complaining that I used to follow Lockheed Martin on social because planes are cool, but it’s recently become filled with missile and other direct weaponry posts. I’m well aware of what the purpose of a fighter plane is. They used to at least have fun posts about the scientific work performed by the U2 and SR71.

I will NOT be attending, so I’m on the list. I can’t go, but I won’t be going, either, as I neither have an invitation nor the means to do so.

Existential crisis about how every narrow image shows 100,000x the amount of matter and bodies that I already can’t conceptualize from just our own galaxy

The number of galaxies present in JWST images always makes me want to puke

Yeah, I’m not afraid of high intelligence. I’m afraid of low/feigned intelligence allowed way too much power.
