Right? Did they think the name wasn’t a description of the music they play for some reason?

I didn’t even think about it that much.

They obviously didn’t either.

I figured it was designed that way so people don’t make that specific turn, meaning it wasn’t actually intended to be a full roundabout. But instead of bothering to pay for any sort of infrastructure in the middle to physically prevent it, they thought painting lines would be enough.

Someone never had to deal with mathematical proofs, only layman’s definitions.

All properties of a parallelogram apply:

• Opposite sides are parallel
• Opposite sides are congruent
• Opposite angles are congruent
• Consecutive angles are supplementary
• Diagonals bisect each other

AND

• All angles are congruent
• All sides are congruent
• Diagonals are congruent
• Diagonals are perpendicular
• Diagonals bisect opposite angles

Ah yes drugs are bad. Weed kills you, etc.

You find out weed doesn’t do any of the shit they said it did… Now absolutely everything they claimed is called into question. Why would they lie about X but not about Y?

DARE did more to make people learn that police cannot be trusted apart from maybe their general violent tendencies.

That is November 1st here in AZ.

Everyone here talking about the background being mirrored and the hat not, talking AI, subtle angle differences but ignoring lens distortion, editing, etc.

Selfies are usually mirrored unless flipped in post processing. His shirt looks to be mirrored as well, so… the simplest answer… The hat that says weird, is just embroidered backwards… Because that would be weird, a beanie with the word weird spelled backwards.

You don’t need to look for a complicated answer when there’s a simple one staring you in the face.

Your reminder that Fox News hated Mister Rogers and everything he believed.

Oh they respond to that stuff fast. But generic dimming lights, in a neighborhood built in the 1960s with old wiring… The frontline customer service staff almost surely thought it was generic complaining about something like a large power draw starting up in the home, like the AC kicking on and dimming the lights just a bit for a second. Not an actual power infrastructure issue.

That assumes no one did. Utilities in my area don’t give a crap as long as service is still functional.

We had to call and complain about lights dimming for over a year before the power company actually sent someone out to take a look. The guy climbed the pole to look at the transformer and came back white as a ghost. The transformer was right next to a massive nearly dead tree, and he had some sort of bar in his hand and explained that it was supposed to have bumps on it, but it was smooth, melted, and it had been so hot he had to let it cool down before he could remove it. He said it could have exploded at any point, probably taking the entire neighborhood with it given the rural area with a lot of natural desert brush. Said he was glad we kept calling and insisting about the issue.

A box hanging around without affecting service is almost aurely a low priority item.

No you’re right. But do you remember why he said he left?

Bluesky was “literally repeating all the mistakes [Twitter] made as a company.”

They recreated the exact same company, with the same structural issues.

I mean, it was made by former Twitter execs… and that was marketed as an “advantage” over alternatives like Mastodon. This isn’t surprising at all unless you literally don’t pay any attention to anything.

Nothing lost. McDonald’s lost sight of their place in the fast food wars.

They mistakenly started to believe they could charge the same as places like Five Guys while still producing the same crap product. They forgot the reason they got so big was because they were cheap, not because they were a better option.

Many Americans live in apartments or condos with minimal to no personal outdoor space, and almost surely a ban on “farm” animals.

A great example of why you should never trust any story from a single source. Traditional journalism ethics requires multiple independent sources. Modern organizations don’t give a shit about that anymore, it’s just about the clicks.

No one knows. I honestly can’t believe the original post isn’t intended to point out the absurdity of these anti-DEI assholes.

The “fixed” version also looks transmasc, not that that’s a bad thing, just ironic if the post wasn’t intended to be a caricature.

Hitler was a drug addict and the trains didn’t run on time.

German trains still don’t run on time. Can’t blame that one on the Nazis, that’s just a German thing.

Normally I’m with you, but I won’t deny this one happened. There are two different reasons though.

1. He was fucking with them.
2. New Yorkers are crazy. And the ones willing to stop and talk are obviously even more unhinged.

To be fair, that did require a $42 billion initial investment a couple years prior to enable.

And half the time it’s not even that fast anymore either.

Might as well order a burger from an actual restaurant, to go, for the same amount and pick it up on the way. Half the time they’ll even bring it to you curbside.
