Saving money. I take pride in doing my research and getting the best deal instead of just stumbling into the first store I come across and paying for whatever the sales person talks me into. The latter wouldn't even hurt me financially, it's just a thing of principle.
Nickelback. I don't know why they get so much hate, their music is actually decent
For me it was the radio and that a lot of their popular songs sound the same-ish (not hard to do with that voice). The radio has ruined a lot of bands for me simply by having a 40 minute playlist on repeat. Like The Killers.
Some of there songs are dope
High school of the Dead. I watched the anime because of that titty/bullet gif. I freaking loved that show. ~~Not so much the piss scene, but still.~~
Bluesky and AT proto
The idea that you can just take your account and migrate it to different PDS is awesome.
Gun Control lol
Charlie Kirk would approve... Well, he would now I mean. SCNR
Too soon?
I saw someone say charlie kirk used the getting shot tactic to avoid the question.
I saw this tread when it was just posted and I remember thinking "there is no way this is going to be still relevant tomorrow"
welllll you are right lol
Charlie Kirk getting fucking holed
If he's so pro life, why is he dead?
If he was anti-vax why did get a shot?
Brave and contrary.
The ends of a loaf of bread are the best slices
Especially toasted. So much crunch.
Vlogging is not vanity. It’s a special way to capture memories to share with others currently. And to view yourself and others in a time capsule, a stasis where you can view the old world
I want to view my vlogs as an elder and appreciate my memories, even more than I thought I did when I filmed them
What about live streamers walking around public?
Superman
A lot of people dismiss Superman as being "too powerful" or "unrelatable." They’ll say Batman is more relatable because he doesn’t have superpowers. But seriously, how many of us can actually relate to being a billionaire playboy with unlimited resources? In contrast, Superman grew up in small-town, working-class America. He is as much Clark Kent as he is Superman.
People call him a "boy scout," as if that’s a flaw. But that misses the point. The fact that he has the power to rule the world and chooses not to, is what makes him extraordinary. He sets an ideal for people to strive for.
Yes, in the hands of a bad writer he can become a walking deus ex machina. But in the hands of a good writer, Superman becomes the core of some of the most powerful and iconic stories in comics. His greatness doesn’t come from what he can do, it comes from the choices he makes.
Superman has the ability to remove Capitalists from power and chooses not to. That is why I don't care for Superman.
He doesn't live in our reality. He was also invented at a time when government functioned at least somewhat, and social progress was being made.
Superman probably pays more in taxes than Batman.
That is probably because Batman doesn't pay taxes, Bruce Wayne does.
And Bruce Wayne is known for spending tons of the Wayne foundation on helping the poor and criminalized. Tons of charities, schools, orphanages, homeless shelters, ... are funded by them.
And if Bruce gets tax breaks because of that, it is because that is how the law works, not because he wants them.
Bruce is far from the average Billionaire you get in our dimension.
Bruce Wayne doesn't exist, it's merely a disguise Batman sometimes wears.
Overly Sarcastic Productions has done a number of videos they call detail diatribes that have focused on Superman. The summary of many of them is that Superman is his most interesting when saving people and not when punching villains. Even in larger team fights, he could save everyone or hold off the threat, but he can't do both so he needs the help of others.
I actually love superman being a normal dude who saves people with a smile. He should be a good person in stories, because his strength isnt the point, his willpower to help everyone is.

There's simply no reason why a GPU should have proprietary drivers, when that is a core, basically inseparable part of a computer. You literally NEED one to see what you're doing with your computer (yes, integrated graphics also count).
I mean, imagine if your sound card had proprietary drivers. The world would go nuts.
Speed Racer (2008)
Uniquely colorful, silly, wholesome, every single one of its frames oozes style and creativity. It's exactly what an animated adaption should aim to be and will forever stand out against the blue and orange, brown and bloom palettes that plagued that era of media.
It's simply so visually exciting and fun.
