Tom Scott's "retirement" video

So We’re All In Agreement

moonsammy says...

I find it so bizarre that it went down this way. If the bulk of congressional Rs don't like the idea of having Social Security and Medicare sunset, maybe they should have been vocal in pushing back on Rick Scott's proposal? Their relative silence on that front effectively proved Biden's original point, so to react so strongly to his statement seems silly. But then, the party stopped behaving seriously years ago, opting for culture war nonsense over actual impactful policy.

99% of Humans Simultaneously in Sunlight

newtboy says...

There’s not a strict definition I’m aware of in common English…but “in sunlight”, in my mind, implies DIRECT sunlight….since that’s not what they mean I find it easily confusing if not deceptive.
“In visible sunlight” is more aptly descriptive, but granted, loses some of the punch.

Also…I see the moon in full daylight, sometimes at noon on sunny days (then I might see an eclipse), and sometimes planets rise just after sunrise or just before sunset…in full sunlight. Come again?

If I can see the moon or any of the planets I'm as much in visible sunlight as if I'm indoors. I don't think there's a good strict definition.

Last Week in the Republican Party

newtboy says...

Ruh-Roe.
Republicans, at least some like Rick Scott, have finally put forth a platform for Republicans.
That plan he put forward is to raise taxes on low income taxpayers (but not top earners) and it would sunset (set an end date for) programs like Medicaid, Medicare, and social security.
It’s so terrible he even has to lie about it on Fox News, claiming those features were really just Democrat talking points….it’s so bad in fact that Fox News actually called him out for lying about it and pointed out that all that is in his stated written plan.

This Republican’s only platform just ostracized everyone over 65 in America and everyone making under $50k per year….and you think they’ll sweep the mid term?! Hmmmmmm.

I don't think you've been paying attention. Democrats have been failing at all attempts at decent legislation. A lot of the progressive democrats are disillusioned (again) and will likely not vote. I'm guessing there's gunna be a Republican sweep and possibly even Trump in office in 2024.

What did Reagan think about the right to vote?

luxintenebris jokingly says...

The sunset from bob's boulevard.

bobknight33 said:

Most Republicans do care.

That's why they are blocking the Democrat fuckery voting laws.

Only Legal voters get to vote.
Have valid ID.

Both sides cheat.

The true question is Why don't Americans want a honest vote system in place?

* * * * * in other words * * * * *

You see, this is my life. It always will be. There's nothing else - just us and the cameras and those wonderful people out there in the dark...

All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my closeup.

@newtboy not quite over yet, they still need to hunt down the Americans who tried to overthrow their own government and install a dictator. https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/capitol-violence

$1,000-$50,000 rewards

I guess you won't want to bet anymore eh bob? You know what let's forget all of them. You and me will ride off into the sunset like Thelma and Louise. When we got the bottom of the canyon, it'll be a shock, but you'll awake a new man! Disallusioned and ready to fight for neo feminism just like Susan Sarandon.


Or ... I suppose, an alternative is we can just change the terms of the bet. I don't know if I'm willing to put $1,000 on this anymore. But I probably bet 50 bucks that Trump's going to end up in jail. I need a relatively short time span maybe like some escalating scale like we could do $25 a month double or nothing each month. like I'd put $10 he's going to be in jail in the first month.

You have my contact, you call me you know where I am.

Meanwhile! It's so nice to hear all these trump cult members denouncing the republican party. $10 on that jail thing, and $10 says that in the first month is disillusioned supporters are going to hunt him down like a dog.

Internet Comment Etiquette: „Passion of the Karen“

makach jokingly says...

this kind of content is exactly what you get when you start consuming videos off a proprietary video service on the internet. It is not exactly as educational as you should expect it to be but it sure is interesting and entertaining. It's not always good to be entertained like that one time I was at a strip club and the strippers turned Karens after sunset and attempted to nag me to death, but fortunately, I am pretty thick-skinned. Lucky me. That's what they call me. Lucky, I strongly believe this whole affair would have been much more enjoyable if I had just lef the place, instead I ended up marrying one of them, and you should thank me for taking one for the team, anyway made you read this far - here is your reward, a rocket ship 8=====D

There are few parts of the globe further from me than the Pacific North Wet

It was 44.1°C (111.4°F) here yesterday at 6pm and sunset wasn't until 8:42pm. Sunrise was at 5:55am.

But anyway, happy return of the light We have an excess, I'm willing to share.

bareboards2 said:

Dude! Thank you! And Happy Return of the Light to you (if you are in a region where that remark brings a smile to your lips.... I am right next to Canada.... it is dead dark at 7:30 am and 5 pm....)

80-Year-Old Woman's Filthy Name

newtboy says...

Both.

Just like on my honeymoon, sitting ocean side at sunset eating honeydew sorbet, my wife said "it just doesn't get better than this", so I said "that means it's all downhill from here."

mxxcon said:

Or did it all go downhill from there?

So this is a thing in Russia

SFOGuy says...

They did; Las Vegas strip had these for a bit and then; surprise, surprise---distracted drivers became an issue (the American version was all glass on 3 sides, and was designed to drive traffic to the local advertising strip clubs)--

So, local traffic laws were changed to reduce the distraction.
And thus, the sunset of the American stripper van.

Stripper vans? You mean you guys DONT have these in America?
