90% of the ads seem to be for shady meds or shady financial apps... sometimes you'll see the same ad three times in a row... I'm getting pretty tired of streaming services... even when I find a show I like, it's like 6 episodes and maybe a year later they add another season. They are rapidly becoming worse than cable TV was. My only solace is that I've been vindicated in what I predicted would happen back when streaming was new... man did the fanboys get pissy about that.
I don’t like to nitpick, but it’s not like a video of them shooting one puppy…
It’s more like there’s hours of video evidence of them eating litters of puppies alive, having sex with some, tearing them apart limb from limb and laughing manically the whole time and then bitching someone scared a puppy.
But that’s their definitive MO… commit crimes full speed, nonstop, brag about them, promise even more and then point to the other guys and vilify them for not eating their veggies.
Fuck their bullshit non-equivalent, false equivalence and the horse it rode in on.
Well, now that Space Karen has reinstated fellow crybaby genius, Dumple Thinskin, I’m interested to see whether this adds gasoline or hydrazine to the dumpster fire he’s been carefully stoking since he walked in with that bathroom sink a few weeks back… Either way, the place is burning to ground… now it’s just a question of how spectacularly or sadly it ends.
Twitter had an interesting run, but the moment the Mango Moron discovered it, it’s days were numbered… If his presence hadn’t become such a concentrated Nexus point of hatred and disinformation, and Twitter had actually enforced its own rules when they should have, the platform probably could have gone on and remained profitable for much longer… but greed, won out in just a few years it went from being a bit swampy to full cesspool.
Dumpo and his flabby fascist conservative cronies constantly howling about how not being allowed their racist rants and propaganda conspiracies was violation of the freeze peach rights Rambo Jesus promised them in the constitution was what drew stupid little Muskrat into this.
And eventually shareholders handed it over over thinking Time Square Elmo with a flamethrower was to going to make them rich beyond their wildest dreams.
Instead, he did exactly what a sweaty drug addict wearing a mascot costume and holding a flamethrower looked like he was going to do all along.
Not only did he set himself on fire and their investments, for many he also set their investments in Tesla alight as well.
There’s an important lesson to be ignored here, the moral of which is: “greedy stupid people ruin everything for everyone”… “but not for you, next time will be different because THIS new guy says he’s smart and he can make us rich”.
Honestly the most important lesson is to not learn anything at all from anything and just keep punching buttons, especially the red ones with the clear plastic covers, because if someone put a cover over it, it must do something fun!
I’m glad I never was into Twitter… it was fun to read sometimes and it’s a shame for all those people who used it for useful or important things… or even just for stupid funny commentary that wasn’t drooling vicious spiteful bullshit.
But this is what happens when you give a monkey a hand grenade and expect results different than what’s obviously going to occur.
For real… was “Truth Social” really ever anything more than another trump grift? Sure the orange ape turd is pissed it didn’t surpass Twitter, but was he really ever going to do more than dabble with it and then lose interest after he solicited more mountains of money from the gullible saps he hoped would flock to it…
His true obsession was Twitter all along.
He’d always be more more interested in Twitter because he was banned from it and you can’t tell Baron Von Dumfuk “no” ever… he’d be obsessed with it until the day he died… but fortunately for him ol’ Muskrat will reinstate him, so the hell with his “Truth Social” once he can have his precious Twitter again.
My only consolation is that he fucked over whoever invested in that fascist dumpster fire to begin with… more loyalist mooks left holding the bag yet again.
I hate him, but it’s still fun to see his stupid followers get what they deserve for being so shitty and trusting of such a shitty and evil person as him.
And if you are thinking “who’s left holding the bag?”, don’t worry, whatever that sack of died up horse shit does, someone who trusted him get screwed.
It’s pretty much his one guaranteed signature move.
I still prefer the old dead tree based book format.
The cool thing about paper books is that once you purchase them you can keep them, give them away or do whatever you want with them… plus if you have bookcases full of them it makes you look smart.
You don’t worry about these things now, you hard sell them to the republicans and get them out on the streets as soon as possible.
Then after you base your entire school shooter plan on the drones coming to the rescue, you “reevaluate” their role when they fail miserably during an actual crisis… but of course not right away… you wait a couple of times until public reaction to needless carnage reaches a feverish pitch.
And even then you don’t accept responsibility, you spin the situation by claiming the drones were “never meant to be a solution, only a tool in the arsenal for school safety” all the while continuing to hard sell them to stupid pro-gun politicians as the “ultimate solution to the school shooter situation”.
Planning is for libbies and communists, real Americans figure things out on the fly, and if a few people have to die, it’s a small price to pay to ensure every real American can buy a machine gun from a vending machine!
(Please note the last part was sarcasm)
How do we know the cats didn’t make him write that email and the wanting a dog part was just to throw people off?
They probably have dirt on him and wanted to humiliate him by making him write that email.
Or he really is that stupid and clueless.
It’s hard to tell these days.
Instantly going directly to the preferred conservative term “Woke” to defend against commentary one doesn’t like betrays the “Comatose” mentality behind one’s reasoning.
But that’s irrelevant.
If the fines were going exclusively to the school or the department of education, that would be an entirely different thing altogether.
But this is just another example of using fines to finance poorly run government.
Police should not be used as revenue collectors nor revenue generators.
Using police to fine adolescents for bad behavior to help balance the budget is not just a slippery slope, it’s an idiotic idea.
But oddly these sort of programs are always supported by individuals who are against government interference.
One doesn’t have to be “woke” to see the stupidity in this plan.
Police should do police work, not be revenue collectors for local government.
Instead of superintendents and politicians taking the time to find a better solution, they defer to the simplest blunt option, fines and using the police.
Instead of fines how about having these kids participate in programs that benefit the community?
These kind of “punishments” require effort and imagination, while fines require no effort from those that default to that kind of “solution”.
Does this help the police or just give them another job to do that’s not what they were trained for, nor what they should be doing and is definitely not something that endears them to the general public?
Defending stupid policies created by stupid lawmakers, is not creating love for law enforcement… it just cements them in place as tools of ineffective and overreaching government.
If you want them to be treated as heroes, then stop supporting policies and politicians who turn them into pariahs.
What I meant to say before I accidentally posted that was, back when everyone was going on about how much better streaming is than cable, I was like “well, give it time… they’ll get just as bad a cable”…
Little by little they are heading down the same road… Netflix has a few good shows, but most of their catalog is old or obscure crap not worth a price increase.
Cable still sucks, but streaming services are going down that same road finding new ways to nickel and dime you for everything.
Sooner than later they reach cable greed level money-grab status.
I used to be concerned about scammers ripping off people and selling dangerous products and shady cures…
But… I dunno about that concern anymore with this lot.
The MAGA crowd are so determined to drag everyone to hell with them, I kinda don’t really have ANY sympathy for them… they beg to be ripped off by their willful blindness and quadrupling down on stupidity… they revel in their stupidity and are proud of it.
I almost want to applaud the scammers because these fools are literally lining up to be fleeced, so why not give them what they want?
Isn’t that what they themselves keep crowing about?… a free market with NO rules and zero regulations or responsibility?
So… fuck em.
They are so aggressively stupid they are fighting to get infected with a highly transmissible virus, which has a readily available vaccine… but they want to only follow their MAGA celebrities advice and reject it… despite the fact that most if not all of these celebrities have been quietly vaccinated themselves regardless of their rhetoric.
I stopped being concerned when it involves the MAGA folks wellbeing… They are right up there with suicide bombers as far as I’m concerned… they want the world to burn if they can’t have it their way and they only care about winning not how much carnage they cause.
The whole conservative movement has been a complete and total scam from day one, a way of getting stupid people to hand over their money and rights so their “team” can win.
If I had far less ethnics and self respect I’d happily join the grift because it’s just super easy money they want to give you for telling them what they want to believe…
If someone wants to give you a $100 to tell them their shirt looks nice, would you turn it down?
I don’t honestly blame the scammers, it’s easy money from easy marks.
I know that all sounds cruel or heartless, but how much sympathy can you have for people who have no concern for anyone else and continually keep acting against their own self interests?
Nobody wants a game to have ads, nothing they are going to offer will compensate for the interruption.
Maybe in the beginning they will offer something vaguely interesting, yet useless, but I can guarantee that will evaporate once idiots accept ads in games, then you’ll get nothing in return and be paying to be interrupted by ads…
No.
Just say NO.
The most I’d accept would be in open world sandbox games where billboards or signs and posters would be for real life companies… that’s it, because just like in real life, you can ignore it if you chose, otherwise anything that I HAVE to pay attention to is a dealbreaker.
And you know it will all quickly devolve into a crap fest of stupid and repetitive ads.
Ad people don’t know when to quit or enough is enough.
No, just no thanks X10,000,000,000
Hapless character accidentally gets super powers, goes around saving people and thwarting crime but accidentally reveals secret identity and then receives multiple cease and desist orders and theft of intellectual property lawsuits from multiple mega corporations because the concept of being a super hero was their idea first and is confusing their customer base... character is sued into oblivion and retires a broken person... until a crisis arises... will they rise to the challenge?
Who cares, not my problem...
Also I fully expect someone to cite multiple stories and comics where that was the plot.
Conservatives- The spoiled annoying, smelly, whiny kid who throws tantrums over everything and can’t understand why nobody likes him or wants him around... only he’s not a kid anymore, he’s 70 and that’s been his entire life.
If it wasn’t so insipid and all encompassing, it would be comical, but it’s getting really tiresome now.
“12345”... You are assuming he can count that high... and in sequence.
trump: “1...” “3...?...5?...” “Ivanka... what comes after 5? Is it triangle or the sideways zeros?”
“Beautiful numbers... numbers like nobody has ever seen!”
Yes, please stop using the name “Mr. Juicy”...
It’s not appetizing and sounds like someone’s pet name for their wiener.
What’s their slogan... “Come on in and get a mouthful of Mr. Juicy”?
But if it’s a growing chain... Maybe that’s what Texas wants?
It could be gay burger bar or a male strip joint, in which case that name works fabulously.
Otherwise it’s just a comical bad name, right up there with LoveSac bean bag furniture...
“True to his word, President Trump has continued to honor America's cops...”
I dunno... more like “As usual, trump has continued to pander to America’s cops...”
The man “honors” one thing and one thing only... himself, and that’s it.
Everything else is a cheap carnival act designed to get people to buy tickets.
He’d turn on the lot of them in a nanosecond, like an rabid orange badger if they displeased him.
He says nice things to them because he wants his army of followers to be carrying as many guns as possible, so when he he squeals for their help they come running to his aid.
It’s purely transactional.
Cable TV 2.0...
90% of the ads seem to be for shady meds or shady financial apps... sometimes you'll see the same ad three times in a row... I'm getting pretty tired of streaming services... even when I find a show I like, it's like 6 episodes and maybe a year later they add another season. They are rapidly becoming worse than cable TV was. My only solace is that I've been vindicated in what I predicted would happen back when streaming was new... man did the fanboys get pissy about that.
Not one puppy…
I don’t like to nitpick, but it’s not like a video of them shooting one puppy… It’s more like there’s hours of video evidence of them eating litters of puppies alive, having sex with some, tearing them apart limb from limb and laughing manically the whole time and then bitching someone scared a puppy. But that’s their definitive MO… commit crimes full speed, nonstop, brag about them, promise even more and then point to the other guys and vilify them for not eating their veggies. Fuck their bullshit non-equivalent, false equivalence and the horse it rode in on.
The Drama Continues…
