I still remember a couple years ago when a lot of people said the global pandemic was by far the best time of their lives. Just vibing, doing hobbies, finally truly decompressing after decades. They won't ever forget that feeling

oh hell yeah I was looking for those grim-ass charts, thank you I'm adding them to the article

I have a new effortpost! I made a Substack to put it on for liberal consumption. Let me know what you think. And where should I share this?

Even the "Winners" of Bidenomics Are Angry. They’re Right to Be!

Yeah where they show up outside the capital with signs that say "shame" and go home

Wait am I missing something were the Dutch cool all along?

Yeah I got a g502 not that long ago and the rubber is already stripping off. That's why the only thing I get protection plans on are mice. so it'll be free to replace and 20 bucks if I want to plan to replace it again

I really like Logitech.

Razer has some good mice, but their software, which has to be running for the mice to not reset to factory default, is the worst, literally the worst software I have ever used. It crashes twice a day at least, without warning. I had to create a shortcut and put it in my taskbar which ended the 14 processes that needed to be ended to fully restart the software, otherwise you couldn't force quit it because the 14 identical looking processes would restart each other as you go down the list, and the software would not work until you ended them all and restarted. Keyboards also rely on the software so anything besides lighting is out of the question because if you change anything else your keyboard will constantly do shit you don't expect because it reverts to default.

Logitech's software isn't fantastic but guess what? You can load the custom sensitivity and lighting profile to the mouse and turn the fucking software off and never have to worry about it ever.

I had a Corsair mouse that I loved but the quality control was dog shit. I returned those mice literally 6 times because the buttons would stop working. One time after returning another broken one, I went straight back to the store because there was a fucking screw rattling around on the inside.

Only issue with Logitech is that they don't make fucking replacement rubber pads, so when they wear through, you gotta get some completely different grip tape solution

Always go used. I got 2 herman miller aerons for 300 a piece

I saw some photos of Muslims holding "WE ARE NOW SPEAKING" signs

They know the third party vote didn't change the outcome in a single state.

They're hoping if they say it now, 30% of the people who hear it will never hear otherwise

I love when there's a panic about some demographic doing something bad, and then you find out that the demographic does the bad thing marginally less than everyone else

I'll never forget the time in about 2014 or 2015 when I searched for "proto indo european" on youtube because I like learning about language shifts. I watched one video about phonology, then YouTube recommended one about early migration patterns, then they recommended a video called "who were the proto indo europeans" and I was like oh neat, I never really thought about their culture or technology or whatever, let's watch that.

I'm kinda spacing out doing something else, and I hear the video say "so basically, the proto indo europeans were ethnically German" I was like ohhhhhh what the fuck?? That sounds not correct at all... wait didn't... didn't the Germans have some weird concept of "Aryans" to the east or something? What the fuck am I listening to?

I look down and the channel name is "SurviveTheJive"...... uhhh.... the WHAT? Survive the WHAT?

It was a Nazi. It took literally two YouTube recommendations to bring me to a channel run by a swastika-wearing Nazi.

oof

Stalin himself ate my cock and balls with this here comically large spoon

Literally starting to see famous centrist ghouls be like "damn maybe Bernie had a point..." Like they're shellshocked

oh weird what does that mean eliminate tips?

hahahahHAHAHAHAH oh my god

He might abolish tax on tips if the law is written in a way that billionaires can "tip" each other
