I would like to wish people who park in the grocery pick up spots and go inside to shop a very flat tire. :)

The rebel attack fails because half of them go to the forest moon called Endor, whilst the other half go to the forest moon orbiting the planet Endor.

Language pet peeves…
“Gaslighting” isn’t just any act of dishonesty
“Cognitive dissonance” isn’t hypocrisy
“LARP” and “cosplay” aren’t synonyms for fake or poser
“Goon” as a euphemism is something an immature 13 year old would say; it means a low level mob thug or ridiculous person
😤

I continue to hate that the “computer-illiterate elderly people falling prey to computer-oriented scams” demographic seems to include every American politician.
I regret to inform you all that Bernie Sanders is in fact taking meetings with noted rationalist wacko Eliezer Yudkowsky over what AI regulations should look like.

the Allied post war "denazification" was a massive failure. nuremberg was a massive failure. the Nazis who survived were, in large, not held to account.
suggesting otherwise is fantasy.

It's a system set up to funnel young women into enemy territory, where this stuff happens over and over.

Talking to LensCrafters about vision insurance and somehow a $500 (frames and lenses, at 40% sale price) pair of prescription glasses would cost me $730 if I use my insurance!?
