I haven’t been this shocked since I found out the original McGruff voice actor was arrested with a bunch of guns and weed plants

They used to, but it didn’t boost ad engagement so they stopped.

Wow she really isn’t very good.

How were we so starved for something that we latched onto her baloney?

I’ve been a 10-16 year old boy. At no point was anyone like Andrew Tate “cool” to me. He’s not witty, he’s not talented, he’s done nothing XTREME. He’s clearly putting up a massive front to pretend to be interesting and for some reason - microplastics, smart phone addiction, whatever - it’s working.

Back in the 90s we would have called him “poser.”

Tate just talks into a microphone with his stupid friends. If that’s what is considered “cool” to today’s teenagers then they’re definitely too far gone.

It starts off by talking to lonely young men and telling them that their feelings are valid and that they have value, both of which are things that young men very much do need to hear!

That sort of thinking just made me overly emotional and hot-tempered. Just feeling the feelings was a good thing, so the more I felt it the better, right?

Hearing that I needed to temper my feelings so that I can figure out what I need and how to communicate those needs was a lot more helpful. And made me a better person overall.

Yeah but in the olden days they were on a print ad in the back of Popular Mechanics, not the leading talk show in the nation.

People are a problem.

And the more people the more problem.

Can I look down on them with disgust instead?

If they need validation from the likes of grifters and scumbags like Andrew Tate then they are already too far gone.

He’s a fucking tool, and I have no idea why he appeals to young men. There’s so many other, manlier, kinder folks out there who can provide that same validation.

Nah, the rocks are fine. It’s putting seeds in the ground that’s the problem. That’s how the seeds get you to do their bidding.

I feel barely human most days, because we are all collectively heinous, so I must have missed that.

Agriculture was a mistake.

Ketchup on a burrito that you don’t know is called a burrito is up there with putting ketchup on a well-done steak

It’s so American to be ashamed of the world laughing at us, and not at all the heinous shit we’ve done.

The sadder truth is that most of us are all most people.

Do you have an idea of how the value is discerned? For example, what’s to stop someone from putting things on a boat and saying they’re worth a penny?

It’s not hard to put more thought into anything than most people.

How does this work from an implementation perspective? Is there a field on whatever software that does import taxes that they can tweak? Or is it just backdated from the date of import, based on the invoice?

You’re what makes the fediverse great

The French have been avoiding dependence on Americans since de Gualle. The only reason the entire country hasn’t died of schadenfreude poisoning is because “schadenfreude” is a German word.
