I just want to post this:

The current most viewed clip:

I mean, who hates fruit?

Well, maybe he was trying to be edgy, or something? Or maybe he has a secret food allergy?

That's an interesting theory... maybe he just doesn't know how to enjoy the sweet and juicy

LOUD MID-SENTENCE LAUGH TRACK

or he could just be a fruitophobe

A fruitophobe...? What do you mean?

Yeah, I've heard of a fear of flying, but this is ridiculous!

Maybe it's a fear of commitment

5 seconds of silence and then suddenly ends

Have republicans always complained they're losing their Fourth Amendment rights, or is this a new thing?

Edit:

I think 10% of the municipality had no power for twice as long. Not feeling super about living in not in my backyard times

I mostly play indie games, so this had a nice ambience to it

Nitpicks: For me the melee wasn't fun enough to be playable until I hit level 100 and looked up how to stagger and tank everything, and it wasn't much better after that. The game encouraged me to cheese everything to avoid dying to use checkpoints, instead of embracing them as I expected. And if you get lost in a demigod base, the time commitment feels like a shift of work

My power was out for 104 hours because of the weather in Ottawa. It was cringe.

Spring cleaning: ✅✅✅✅✅✅

I like watching Horde Chess (player 1 has 36 pawns) sometimes, because it feels like watching checkers vs chess

Still, I think the model of disrupting inner cities like was/is used in Ottawa is going to be employed here in the states pretty soon.

If police chiefs are actually expected to criticize criminals, I think the protestors are so lazy that it'll be enough on it's own to prevent them. They have easier alternatives that won't get them assaulted in non-pacifist cities

May as well ask it here. Are his reviews better if you've already played the game, or haven't?

Don't know if you'll agree with it, but here's a similar article: https://www.cosmopolitan.com/lifestyle/a37696261/leaving-recovering-from-q-anon/

Kept my post as little about Chapelle as possible, but everything I did say ended up being inaccurate. Was going off memory and assuming about twitter, the team terf was included in the routine (and the laughing about being cancelled was a live reaction to seeing an audience of fans so I fell for a headline there)

The first vaccine joke gives context that many of his jokes are going to attempt to offend everyone. If he wants criticism, over half of the routine is intentionally giving people a lot to work with. The payoff by omission is "trust me." But I'll stick with not defending it

I'm one of those people who only saw one side which was a clip and a couple of tweets (the team-terf one and one of him laughing because he's becoming even richer from the drama). I'm exclusively going to base my reaction here off of that:

The clip was really bad.

It wasn't funny enough for that to be relevant. I think pretty much every offensive joke is funny, but I try the bare minimum to leave offensive jokes for those who don't treat everything like a joke. I see good faith jokes that the target is in on turn into full-on discrimination. Some of the cleverest and funniest people I've ever met mindlessly repeat jokes without understanding a word of them. And it all goes further and happens basically everywhere, "it was just a joke."

If I wanted to make offensive/transgressive jokes without disrespecting a wide audience, there's more topics today than ever before. For example, making jokes about suicide is easier than fish shooting themselves in a barrel. I don't really want to make offensive jokes, the reaction isn't worth my effort (even if assuming no one else would be personally affected just because I'm not)

I'll throw out there defending comedians for this in the last twenty years isn't a much different idea than saying the police only have a few bad apples. Grats to comedians who disrespect people that don't need it and getting a paycheque out of it

edit: Being funny may as well be the easiest part of comedy. The main takeaway I got from the transgressive comedy I grew up on was respect is more important

After seeing Squid Game in Roblox, it could make you worse?

Great post as always, would hope anyone interested in creating NFTs would also appreciate this background, especially considering the flood of spam I've seen in so many crypto communities

I tried to look it up again, but couldn't find anything good:

Liberals wanted ranked ballots (which I would've been fine with because I just want fptp gone), but then they remembered they're politicians and so didn't do anything

Dreaming of electoral reform was nice for a day

I knew AirBnB would cause anarchist chaos

(just found out about these yesterday so they're new to me)

Area/State 51

Now let's make Scrabble players have a game using only words they generate from this site

"The news comes at a time when many users outraged with Facebook-owned WhatsApp’s new privacy policy are moving to seemingly safer alternatives like Signal. WhatsApp’s contentious new terms of service are slated to come into effect from May 2021. The updated privacy policy changes how Facebook can access users’ chats with business accounts."

Haven't heard of WhatsApp in years and thought it was a free voip meme, so the shock to me is the statement people were fine with it for business use until now

There's so much about this topic that has made me into a crazy conspiracy person. Being worried about not enough jobs while everyone is expected to work bad schedules. Cashiers and call centers not being automated yet while immigrants etc. get all of the hate for the overemphasis of "upselling" of large businesses. I personally feel like unions are painfully inefficient, but FAANG companies etc. have bought out such an overwhelming amount of their competition there's no other option to deal with monopolistic-like practices that have taken all over. Seeing students working until 5am (in untipped positions) for ultra-spoiled people to celebrate a wedding and say they used to do the "same" job and it was easy (while they get carried by people who actually care doing everything). I'll probably check out that book

I always see the news willing to blame bad stuff on poor people, so it's more about who never gets blamed

I mean I'm not dismissing everything, but he lists being a guest on the Glenn Beck show as his main achievement of following his 8-step daily routine for a healthy brain

I used to be haunted by the Swedish Chef segments

This happened to me a couple days ago (or maybe yesterday).

Clicking comments on profile pages goes to /user/globalcomments which I think is error page

Clicking comments while reading a post such as this goes to /pub/globalcomments which I think is blank page

Clicking comments while reading the global feed takes you to /global/globalcomments (which I think is the same as the global post feed instead of comments)

Clicking comments from hubski.com/ takes you to hubski.com/globalcomments which seems to be working right
