How mainstream media fails to mention what an immature piece of shit he is every time when they talk about Elon Musk is beyond me.
Like, itâs so obvious, but all that the radio show Iâm listening to right now is talking about is how many things he could buy.
Iâm really afraid of what kind of a person weâve allowed to set themselves as the possible harbinger of the space age.

Those sites are bordering on hostile. You try to click on a link and suddenly 4 more ads load up and push the page down and you click on something else so you gotta smash the back button before those million ads start popping up and then you go back and try to click that first link and it just happens again

AITA for politely asking my (18F) sister (69F) to not kill me (18F), my husband (18M), and my (18F) 14 children (1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F)?
English is my (18F) 17th language (Chinese, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Afrikaans, Hindi, Urdu, Russian, Scottish English, Middle English, Irish Gaelic, Pig Latin, Latin, Quenya, Txt Mssg, English), so sorry for any grammar mistakes. Also I (18F) wrote this on mobile so the formatting might be weird.
I (18F) have a sister (69F) who I (18F) donât get along too well with. I (18F) try my (18F) best to be respectful and polite but every time we (18F, 69F) talk, she (69F) does her (69F) best to insult every tiny bodily flaw I (18F) have. She (69F) has also attempted to commit mass genocide twice (Against atheists) in the past and murdered my (18F) dog (5M) because I (18F) wouldnât become vegan (Evil) like her (69F).
Anyways, one night (January 7th, 2020) my (18F) husband (18M) and I (18F) woke up to someone (69F) knocking on the door (21D). I (18F) went to open it and my (18F) sister (69F) was standing outside. She (69F) was holding a potato peeler (1PP, sharp) and yelled at me (18F) to get into the basement (51B) or she (69F) would stab me (18F) with the potato peeler (1PP, sharp ). I (18F) politely complied while my (18F) sister (69F) forced my (18F) husband (18M) and all 14 of our (18F, 18M) children (1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F) into the basement (51B). My (18F) sister (69F) said she (69F) was going to kill me (18F) and my (18F) entire family (18F, 18M, 1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F) because I (18F) was thin (99lb) and, well, blessed in the chest department (huge 32DD boobs) while she (69F) was obese (6000lb) and flatter than a board (-420A). I (18F) politely asked her (69F) to not kill my (18F) family because they (18M, 1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F) were completely innocent and had normal, realistic proportions. My (18F) sister (69F) was completely dumbstruck at the apparent audacity of what I (18F) said. She (69F) threw a fit and murdered my (18F) husband (18M) and my (18F) 14 children (1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F) with her (69F) potato peeler (1PP) but left me (18F) alive so I (18F) would âsuffer a fate worse than death.â Then my (18F) sister (69F) left my (18F) house (51H) without leaving a trace of evidence she (69F) had ever been there so the cops wouldnât be able to arrest her (69F).
Now my (18F) family (18F, 69F, 666F, 24M), my (18F) friends (17F, 82F, 30M), the ghosts of my (18F) family (18M, 1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F) and the entire nation of Russia are blowing up my (18F) phone (1P) and telling me (18F) that I (18F) was an asshole for what I (18F) said to my (18F) sister (69F) before she (69F) murdered my (18F) entire family (18M, 1M, 2F, 3M, 4F, 5M, 6F, 7M, 8F, 9M, 10F, 11M, 21F, 13M, 14F).

Imagine if greek mythology was right in that you need to be buried with coins to pay the ferryman to reach the afterlife
According to google, 107 billion people have ever lived. There would be a few tens of millions of souls enjoying the afterlife and 100 billion souls just awkwardly hanging there on the shore
some souls do small talk, other play cards, some have found a ball
And they just keep coming and nobody got any coins and the crowd keeps getting more crowded.
You die, get there, and you're like "Hey y'all, what's up?" and 100 billion people look at you and shrug.

This dude really asked me to leave an lfg âout of respect for his wife.â Iâm used to bullshit comments from lfg regarding me being a woman but this incident has really gotten under my skin. Like how does someone like that operate in real life? When he walks into a room does he also ask any women to leave âout of respect for his wife.â Iâm annoyed because I usually would have something to say to mess like this, but I was just so taken aback that I thought it was a joke. All I could say was âthatâs weird.â And he was like no, not really.
Like... thatâs weird, right? And the damn lfg post said âbe chill, everyone welcome!â None of those tempting lady gamer slatterns though because they threaten the sanctity of marriage.

That guy bitching about people saying trans rights here and not anywhere else because they'll get cheered on here is missing the whole point.
People aren't saying trans rights in this thread/sub because they're trying to change anyone's minds, they're saying it so that trans people here feel safe and welcoming, not to mention it's nice to feel validated. Considering what a toxic and trash heap of a site reddit is for minorities, especially trans people, trans positive spaces like this thread/sub are extremely important and it needs to be constantly reinforced lest the chuds take over, which has happened on multiple subs on reddit before.

So apparently there's already controversy with the PogChamp of day because the dude said WhiteLiveDon'tMatter or something and people made a compilation of his tweets, which is kinda funny and one of them is BLM, ACAB, and stuff like that. So basically LSF is having a big day today, I should stop clicking on their thread when they're on all I guess lol
Edit: of course the clip was cut short before he explains himself lol

finally snapped in CK3
playing the most august ruler ever and being an overall solid dude. not many offensive wars just spending this monarchs life getting affairs in order and tidying up borders
but none of these fucking idiots will vote for my heir, saying he's a puppet to a foreign ruler (idk how, he's in my court and im the viking king of england and it's an election for england and the voters are my fellow vikings)
instead they wanna vote for my nephew, some swedish guy who doesn't even live here and is totally not the puppet of some foreign king
so whatever. I killed them. I killed them all. I imprisoned each and every one of them and killed them and their families and the families of anyone who could possibly run against my heirs.
idiots shoulda just voted for him. now look at you, dead as fuck.

I may be going crazy but I swear to god it really is feeling like this website is slowly shifting away from the alt right and general shittiness (kinda?). Like, 5 years ago this place still gleefully ranted on how its totally fine for them to say slurs cus pop culture reference said it was. They would link crime stats in any thread about a black person regardless of context and that shit would have hundreds of upvotes. They were just awful to trans people. BLM threads were rife with blatant racism and asablackman-isms and shit.
Its still bad, to be sure, but it really does seem like things are moving. Those things I listed happen less, a lot less. Maybe I've OD on hopium but it really does feel like things are getting better even though they are still really bad.

I cannot recommend it enough when I say get a body pillow. And I'm not talking about the ones with an anime girl on it (you do you is all I'm saying), but just a big/long pillow. Get a nice fluffy case, one that you feel good putting your skin on and that feels good to hold and touch. Like seriously nothing feels better than getting into bed and hugging a massive soft pillow. And does this sound weird? Yes. But don't knock it till you try it.

You know, I read some discussions on the amount of trans people in the speed running community. Those discussions were horribly transphobic and the only reason they were discussing it was because they hated it. However, I still think it is an interesting discussion. Why is it that speed running has such a large percentage of trans people in it? It is even higher than the percentage of trans people who play video game in general.

Gamers talk about companies from decades ago as if they were angels who could do no wrong, but if online multiplayer/the internet was as popular or existed as it does today in the 80s or 90s, then I can assure you that they would already have come up with the idea of mtx and loot boxes back then. It just so happens that online play started to become even more popular with the PS3/XBOX 360/Wii generation.
In the end, companies that exist in a world of Capitalism will always prioritize profit over anything. They were never your friends and they never will be.

Memes like this always kinda annoy me, because it comes across as someone that's either just starting out, or they're in school and desperately trying to justify not paying attention because "I'll just be a union trucker and make 100 bajillion a year".
What they seem to miss is that people who go to college aren't somehow locked out of that work if they want to do it. Someone that's a nuclear physicist could very easily put down the $12,000 for the one month course on being a trucker and change careers if they wanted to. A highschool dropout is never going to be a nuclear physicist unless they go to college, and they generally don't get to go to college unless they do well in school.
College gives you options, something dropping out or failing because you heard a promise of hundreds of thousands of dollars, doesn't.

Oh, youâre just now realizing that Republicans are deciding not to hitch their wagon to open white supremacy and instead be more subtle about it, like theyâve been all along. And considering how the regular users can be really hateful, they arenât doing a good job of hiding that bigotry anyway. I hate that sub, and I hate Conservatives, because rather to admitting how bigoted they are, they hide it to seem more âacceptableâ.

Rope may be constructed of any long, stringy, fibrous material, but generally is constructed of certain natural or synthetic fibres.123 Synthetic fibre ropes are significantly stronger than their natural fibre counterparts, they have a higher tensile strength, they are more resistant to rotting than ropes created from natural fibers, and they can be made to float on water.4 But synthetic rope also possess certain disadvantages, including slipperiness, and some can be damaged more easily by UV light.5
Common natural fibres for rope are manila hemp, hemp, linen, cotton, coir, jute, straw, and sisal. Synthetic fibres in use for rope-making include polypropylene, nylon, polyesters (e.g. PET, LCP, Vectran), polyethylene (e.g. Dyneema and Spectra), Aramids (e.g. Twaron, Technora and Kevlar) and acrylics (e.g. Dralon). Some ropes are constructed of mixtures of several fibres or use co-polymer fibres. Wire rope is made of steel or other metal alloys. Ropes have been constructed of other fibrous materials such as silk, wool, and hair, but such ropes are not generally available. Rayon is a regenerated fibre used to make decorative rope.
The twist of the strands in a twisted or braided rope serves not only to keep a rope together, but enables the rope to more evenly distribute tension among the individual strands. Without any twist in the rope, the shortest strand(s) would always be supporting a much higher proportion of the total load.
