Didn’t know poppy was still around.

She’s actually growing in popularity, opening for and collaborating with major bands. She’s booked on a lot of metal festivals as well.

Glad I canceled my subscription then.

My friend is pretty smart and he left France to work in the US a while ago. He’s pretty pissed at the election though, and afraid especially since his wife is black. He’s seriously considering moving back to France.

You should get all the stats you need in the upcoming years. Not sure it will make a difference though.

It’s a huge ball they put up in Las Vegas because why the fuck not I guess? It seems to be a huge screen because it was a US flag in the other picture I’ve seen.

Nick Fuentes, for one. He seems pretty proud of it judging by his Twitter.

I went through all of these, and honestly plugging in a single cable into your laptop and having power, external display, network and input peripherals all connect instantly is pretty damn cool.

Yeah but they weren’t one of the main driving forces behind a major political party at the time.

(If you haven’t seen Severance yet, get on your big screen and watch it now, you won’t regret it)

Yeah, and that’s sad and dumb as fuck.

Hell, if I knew however much money I spent, someone would always foot the bill if I ran out, I too would spend like no tomorrow in order to get more money for free. It’s plain logic.

• Why did $manager hire two more people? We don’t need them, half the team has no idea what they’re doing here and are just fucking around all day already.

• Yeah but he still has some budget left, and if he doesn’t spend it all next year he’ll get less, and we can’t have that.

Bible literalists also believe that a huge war in Israel is a prerequisite to the second coming of Christ AKA the end times.

It was like 20 years ago, but their sidewinder brand was pretty great, as was the intellimouse.

Sure, but in every picture? Including some where he’s supposed to actually have fun?

One thing about him I saw in a Lemmy comment a couple months back, is that in every picture of him smiling, if you hide his mouth you’re left with his lifeless eyes, it’s like he was told how you’re supposed to smile when you’re cheerful so he goes through the motions but he’s not entirely sure what the point is. It works with all the pictures of him I came across since then, including the thumbnail of this post.

No, a bêtise is when a kid spills her milk or breaks a toy.

In this context I think they use the word as an euphemism for cheating on your spouse, as that’s the defense of most of the accused: they thought it was a kink and that Gisèle Pelicot had given her consent.

Could someone please explain the rationale behind this? From what I gather it amounts to “well yeah Putin sent his army and started the war, but he was forced to by NATO/USA/Biden personally/Zelensky personally, THEY are the real warmongers!” But when I ask why, and what would have happened to Russia if he didn’t start the war, they don’t actually answer and just smile knowingly like I’m some kind of moron for not figuring it out by myself.

I think he’s on YouTube now.

Maddox from the internet prehistory talked about it.

I watched a friend’s teenage son play a couple of times. They don’t seem to play battle royale or any kind of competitive mode anymore, they just chat and dick around in what seems to be seasonal levels. Reminds me of my WoW days where I logged in to do my dailies more for the social engagement than the actual gameplay.
