Assholocene.

Until March 10th, the Tesla stock dropped dramatically to a low of $222.15, and the articles posted that day were reasonable. Honestly, it was lower last spring at $142.05 in April 2024. Everything after March 10th were not reasonable or reflective of reality.

As of today the stock sits at $287.99, nowhere near its peak but still overvalued as living fuck.

Yet somehow, we've had two fucking solid weeks of "Tesla stock dropping" news articles while the stock has been slowly creeping back up.

All those articles just serve as wishcasting for people who don't like Musk.

I fucking hate Musk, but what I hate more is ignoring reality around you. That's what MAGA idiots do.

I had the stupidest arguments with people who kept saying that it was rising didn't matter. Why not? He's still way up in terms of valuation from just a year ago, and it's still rising, no matter what bullshit fantasy we want to tell ourselves because we reasonably fucking hate Elon Musk.

Anyway, the stock probably being juiced by Russia and Saudia Arabia. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What follows are some examples:

As a US citizen, I don't have to imagine, sadly.

Dang it I finally literally just updated yesterday after not updating for like six months and being lazy haha.

Nice new features though and no breaking changes so no big deal. Just update it again today, I guess.

I am an unabashed media pirate.

I hate how the techpirate ethos of routing around bad legislation has led these techbro assholes to route around any and all legislation that would stop them.

I hate to admit it, but it really is the same ethos taken to it's most extreme conclusions.

I was never assigned it, but I've been meaning to read it just because of how much people hate it... Maybe I'll end up hating it, but at least I won't be a phony (heh) hating it by proxy.

I usually don't think its particularly in good taste to use things like disabilities as a weapon against even truly evil people, but that being said...

Governor Hot Wheels literally made it so other people in his same predicament cannot receive the same recompense for what they have been through as he did. He literally pulled up the ladder behind him, an effective "fuck you" to other people who have been disabled by a preventable accident that was not their fault.

Secondly, that bleach blonde bad built beach body bitch MTG showed fucking revenge porn (because she did it for revenge and to shame Hunter Biden) on the house floor and she still has her seat and hasn't been censured or removed.

Finally, Republicans say horrendous shit like this all the time, and we're supposed to just weather it and never make them accountable for their shitty behavior and I'm sick and tired of that being used as a way to walk all over us. We literally had fucking Methuselah himself purposely misgendering Sarah McBride.

So yeah, fuck 'em all and fuck Governor Hot Wheels. This is the game they wanted to play, so let's play it. They can dish it out but they can't handle the heat.


TL;DR:

I hate to say it, but with climate change spinning out of control and the death cult in charge of one of the most militarily powerful nations on the planet who have decided to go back to "drill, baby, drill" and strip mine the shit out of our national parks...

Yeah, it's gonna be barbarism because under these conditions society will collapse.

We're headlong into numerous environmental crises that there are not easy solutions for and instead of planting trees and getting to composting, the leaders of the world think we can technology our way out of this one. We can't, it's just not possible. We can't technology our way out of biodiversity loss and a mass extinction.

In true Boring Dystopia fashion, though, we're not even gonna get anything as exciting as Mad Max or Waterworld, and like the old saying goes, we'll still be expected to show up for work while it's all happening.

She and hear team literally purposely elevated Trump during the primaries because she was so sure she would be running against Jeb Bush in the general election.

I have always had more respect for academics of literature than I have had for lawyers.

At least the academics are honest that the interpretations of literature they are making are in many ways just pulled out of their ass.

Lawyers play fucking games with words in their interpretations of law and yet have this weird smug superiority about them.

Lin said that the U.S. Institute for Peace called the D.C. police on the Musk team members in an effort to stop them from trespassing because the institute has control of its own building and the land it sits on. But instead, the D.C. police allowed them to enter and kicked out the institute’s officials.

Before the D.C. police arrived, the Musk team had tried for hours to enter the building. They attempted to enter on Friday, but that effort was unsuccessful.


Dear /c/Politics moderators: I am only posting this in the body because the direct link doesn't actually work as a direct link and just takes you to the top of the updates thread and you have to dig to find this two paragraph snippet. Please understand why I did this. I know the rule is not to do this but I hope you can make an exception in this case.


Anyone else remember the evidence that a lot of the DC police were just letting January 6th rioters onto the capitol grounds and that it was roundly dismissed by our useless fucking media as a conspiracy theory?

Law enforcement was never on our side.

I just want to know if reports are failing for anyone else and if we need to be making some kind of plea to the admins/moderation teams/developers to try to fix it.

Because not being able to report this obvious spam is a problem.

 

We are getting reports of YouTube rolling out an experiment to some accounts where normal videos only have DRM formats available on the tv (TVHTML5) Innertube client.

This is not limited to yt-dlp. Tests have been run with the same account on various official YouTube TV clients (PS3, web browser, apple tv) and they are also only getting DRM formats for videos.

We live in hell-world.

 

this one is called "too short haiku"

 

Right from the start
I was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know I wasn't breathing
Didn't know I had been bleeding

Opened my door
Thought I was alone but
Someone was hiding
In a dark room in my home

Hum it, you will remember some of it
But if you solve it you will remember all of it

Creeper in my home, crawled in through the window
I grabbed a kitchen knife, couldn't stick it in though
Creeper had his own, shining in the moonlight
My home was very cold, and something didn't feel right

I was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know I wasn't breathing

I woke up thirsty on an island in the sea
I woke up hungry with hungry cougars surrounding me
I hit the soft spot on the soft spot on my head
It made me tired so I sung from my bed
"I'm ready to die, I'm ready to die, I'm ready to die"

A sword, a switchblade, any way you cut it
I'm not afraid, I know I'm going to get it
Oh, maker of such fine products
As palm trees, and the dead sea

Don't pardon me, there's nothing rude
Things conclude, things conclude!

As I slurred that chorus
The ghosts got Biggie Small sounds like a drill
The death sweat suits me
A death threat provides a thrill
I've seen the world, kissed all the pretty girls
I've said my goodbyes and now I'm ready to die
