if you didn’t need that lesson, you wouldn’t have had it
Pinned
Is it piano or man or a monument
To our hubris our malice our sin
And it sits at the bar still stinking of tar
My god what the hell next will walk in
james cameron got shooters
you simple bitch
Is there any franchise that's made more money and had less impact on wider culture than Avatar?

i understand why this shit is legal but it shouldnt be

“hey man i saw you’re trying to sell your car for $10k. thats cool and all but ive got a better idea: how about i give you $2k, and then you get a loan from the bank for $8k? then you can just give me the car”
they way they do leveraged buyouts where they put the acquired entity on the hook for the debt honestly strikes me as slow-motion bank robbery.

i'm not picking on this particular poster, but imho a big part of how we got here is too much concern about students completely freaking out about things. students are scum and must be punished for their hubris
That's fine if you don't teach classes where students write papers, and if you have no assignments besides the exams. (In my experience students would completely freak out if their entire grade were based on in-class exams.)

the new knives out breaks the mst3k rule in the first ten minutes: “never remind the audience of a better movie in the middle of your movie” by making a reference to the big lebowski. doing so in a movie starring jeff daniel is completely incomprehensible

mister president our analysis suggests that the target sleigh has penetrated our air defenses and we’ve had no contact with fort greely since we simultaneously lost the target’s radar track over the DEW. we have to assume those assets are lost

sir, i advise you to think of your children

but with the development of CRISPR technology, we have the ability to create the world’s first fully fertile grinch. sharks,
a grinch is the offspring of a who and a sneetch. and like a mule, is genetically sterile

When I was 14 I made a Timberwolf loadout in Mechwarrior with a dozen large PPCs and that was a more realistic build than whatever this is
The more I think about this battleship the more I think it’s a shiny distraction to keep attention away from the LSM and the frigate, both of which can be built in the near term. Some of these weapons don’t exist yet except on paper. No ship ever built could power all of these.

funniest outcome is that we get AGI and the first thing it says is “holy shit why did you build so many fabs here is a recipe that runs on 20w like your brain does you stupid apes”
I'm not saying we're headed for a mortgage backed securities disaster because everyone is once again assuming things can only go a little pear shaped when they can go very pear-shaped, but I am definitely worried about it.

Big news out of Montana: Dr. Thomas Weiner has lost his license and will never practice medicine there again as the medical board finally responds to reports that he hurt and mistreated people. They noted Scott Warwick, who got 10 years of chemo etc, died from it, but never had cancer. Context 👇
Let me tell you a story – one of the more haunting I’ve seen in 20 years of journalism. It’s about greed, death and denial. It took two years to unravel one doctor’s myth, a hospital’s complicity in creating it, and a documented trail of suspicious deaths…🧵

the index of consumer sentiment is at an all time low because everyone is fucking insane at all times
