Who’s surprised?

This SCOTUS is corrupt to the core. It’s a Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation outfit and none of the shit it says is designed to serve We The People in any way, shape or form.

Kids don’t ask Alexa to do their homework for them. They ask ChatGPT.

Also, kids don’t use what their parents use because it’s old people stuff. It’s only parents who think their children do as they were taught 🙂

Well, if you mean it’s better that Wuhan gives a Punk scene to the world rather than a pandemic, yeah I guess you’re right.

What the fuck is wrong with that city?

Obviously a fake story made up by an adult. A real kid would have called their teacher “ChatGPT”. Alexa is for middle-aged adults who want to know what’s on TV.

Just another disaster in a disaster of a country…

mega warehouse detention centers

Aka concentration camps.

Shame on you America. May you end a fiery end, you nauseating country full of nauseating people.

Remember that they were all elected - congresscritters and POTUS alike. That should tell you something about the quality of the electorate.

Yes, we gen-Xers got a lot of things for cheap or free, and we had a lot more opportunities for sure - and our boomer parents even more so - because we rode the tail end of the post-WW2 economic boom.

I totally get the jealousy. What I don’t get is the hate: I can’t count the number of young people who actually hate me because I happen to have had it better than them. Sorry… It’s not like I planned it or anything, and I didn’t set out to ruin anybody’s life after me neither.

One of those Linuses annoys the living daylights out of me.

I am honestly sad that I never got to experience that America

I’m so sorry. But it was like that. Sure it had its many, many flaws. But it was a place where studying hard, making it to and through college and being educated were valued more highly than being a vocal cretin, where science was respected, craziness was fringe, religion was retreating, working hard gave you a real - albeit small - chance at striking it rich, and where you could expect your children to be better off than you if you did everything right.

All that is gone. I really feel sorry for you and those of your generation who never got to experience the “good” America - at least good if you were white…

A noun I normally connect to cassette recorder or record something.

And here, I’m gonna break your mind: a cassette player isn’t a person playing the cassette. How sick is that eh? 🙂

The recorder is like the guitar: just because generations of talentless kids inflicted them on their parents doesn’t mean they’re bad instruments incapable of producing good music. It’s just that most people have also heard good guitar and know what it can sound like, while very few have heard good recorder.

Always remember that Trump’s unhinged dementia-fueled stuff is of concern because there are morons who listen to him. If nobody did, he’d be as harmless as my stark-raving mad grandfather’s rants were.

It looks like all airlines and pilots are afraid of the threat posed by the rogue country on the American continent - and I’m not talking about the one on the map.

In totally unrelated news, Turkey is a Russian simp.

(And no, I won’t quit calling Turkey Turkey cold-Türkiye, anymore than I will call Munich München outside of Germany, because that’s what Turkey’s exonym is. Fuck you Turkey.)

I’m old enough to remember the America of best education, top science and engineering in the world. The America that proudly went to the Moon. The America that developed the Internet on public money.

I guess I can feel the contrast with the idiocracy of today a bit more keenly than younger folks who have never known anything else.

How a man this crass managed to be President twice, I’ll never know. What a fucking disgrace…

Pointless aristocrats of yesteryear look as pointless as aristocrats of today.

What’s Windows?

Oh, that thing that looks like Linux but works like shit…
