They might not want to do it, they might feel there are better things to fight for, they may have heavy regret signing and volunteering for the military knowing who the president is. But they do it anyways.

Do you maybe mean the opposite of respect? Because that seems more logical.

I got my nephews one of those! It disappeared after a week, but what a week.

I believe Thiel’s name is one of the ones found in the Epstein emails.

I used to drink use Royal Cola too.

I like it in a tuna salad. I chop up a cup of baby spinach, along with half a carrot and the same amount of telegraph cucumber. Mix a 180g can of tuna in oil through it, add some salt and pepper and it’s a pretty good low carb lunch.

Do you have a NIC that accepts DOS-based drivers or are you surviving without internet on it?

I’m gonna anti-recommend TinyCore unless you’re an advanced user. The wiki is a trap full of outdated info spread across several different versions of the OS.

One thing I’ve noticed is that boomers think that if you disagree with them, it means you must be younger than them and therefore wrong.

I think cats would have outrageously fake french accents.

I’ll be honest - I don’t know if it’s a good song. I just know that self-animated music video changed my life.

It’s the I’m-pointing-at-you-with-a-pen-but-I-forgot-my-pen gesture.

A hidden button pops out saw teeth at the edges and starts the whole thing spinning. I will wade through this storm, of my own creation.

I agree that Morpheus doesn’t seem like a cold person. But he can’t let any of his crew return to the Matrix because the agents could perform one of their mind-bending interrogations on them and gather intel on Zion. Like Trinity showed us when Morpheus himself was captured - denying an asset to the enemy by yanking their plug out was standard procedure.

Duh. Why else go to space?

Haven’t heard of it.

Esperanto. It’s an artificial language designed to be easy to learn and communicate in. Although it’s worth noting that there are esperanto dialects and speakers of one don’t necessarily understand speakers of another.

“Imagine a hydra with an infinite number of heads. Some of the heads are arguing, some have got their necks knotted, and some are french-kissing. One of them is wearing a pirate hat.”
