I always get a chuckle when I’m listening to 2Pac on the train to work, because I am a nerdy white dude, and if people knew what I was listening to they’d laugh.

Only rich people say stupid shit like this.

By ‘well’, I mean it helped me tremendously in managing my appetite with few side effects. (Which is why I think we should be making them easier to obtain, to combat America’s obesity epidemic.) Basically, on a GLP-1, you get the feeling of being full while eating less.

I stuck very closely to the doctor’s instructions, so for me, they’ve been a huge benefit.

I lost 130 pounds six years ago naturally, but my age has made it more difficult to manage diet and weight, so for me it’s just a huge help.

Super crummy news.

I’ve used GLP-1’s for a year and these drugs work incredibly well. The benefits are insane and the side effects are few. The US Government and the states should be making them EASIER to obtain, not harder.

That is incorrect.

I, too, want to live in a world where no one gives a damn about this shit, but that’s simply not the world we live in, and to pretend otherwise is foolishly naive. Bryon’s choices could affect Kristi Noem’s if his secrets were held over her head. (And I’d imagine they probably were, given his evident lack of discretion.)

It is what it is.

Thank you for moderating.

Not exactly accurate.

His choices compromised a highly-placed government official. His private life is and should be fodder for exposure.

Not into kink shaming myself (and frankly, I wish more people would safely indulge their kinks), but when your actions can (and probably did) compromise a government official, it’s news.

Same. I didn’t even worry about Linux until a year ago, and was willing to put up with the buggy dual boot for two months before wiping it. Luckily I got a new laptop last fall and it works perfectly on this one. I LOVE Mint and prefer it over Windows for nearly everything.

Yeah, if I didn’t need to use it I wouldn’t. I hate it.

I run a dual boot.

Love that it functions so well on my current PC, as my last one didn’t run Linux particularly well, and I love having the option to do anything private off-Windows.

Oh no.

Please don’t do this.

Violence doesn’t solve anything, folks.

Blaming anyone for a warehouse without proper fire suppression seems negligent.

Agreed on all points, but especially this one.

Yeah, I know there are a few things I can do to help my videos gain traction: Make a custom thumbnail, add hashtags, use chapters… and I do that, but apart from that, I think consistency, authenticity, and patience are the most important qualities in being a content creator.

My best-performing video is a small tutorial for “teaching” YouTube’s algorithm to stop feeding you AI Slop, after all. I think people really want authenticity.

Yup.

It’s a labor of love. I’ve been told I need to start cutting up my videos into shorts, and I may do that at some point, but right now I can’t be bothered. My stuff isn’t really intended for gen z’ers with no attention span anyway.

It could be with good nutrition, regular exercise, and daily stretching.

But I get it. That is unironically a fair bit of work as one ages.

Wasn’t it just a few weeks ago that these same people were praising their soldiers for raping captured civilians?

I don’t know about you all, but I didn’t see nothin’.

It’s been interesting watching these massive corpos react in small ways to the fact that American families are too impoverished to buy their shit anymore.

I was at a rental car place yesterday, which I overpaid for because I have a family event I know I can’t miss, and I heard the desk person telling another worker not to come in because they only have seven total reservations and dropoffs. On a Friday. During a spring break. Every American is seeing some version of this scenario in their own lives every single day: elective underconsumption because prices are goddamn insane.

And then Iran happened and obviously an extra dollar or two for gas means no one’s spending any of their discretionary income.

My conclusion is that I wish we could elect people who’ve actually worked a job for a living or had to do their own grocery shopping, or opened a medical bill, or had to actually watch their own fucking kids for a weekend. The disconnect is stark, and it takes people freaking out over the bond market or price gouging so out of control that a CEO’s quarterly report is disappointing for these motherfuckers to get a sense of how big the problem is.

I wish I could get the US government to care about anything as much as it cares about our big, tough president’s tender feelings.

I chose the word ‘stupid’ on purpose.

It is literally stupid for her to be thinking she should run again.
