I immediately thought about how this seems like weak glowlie bait, but it's most likely not

I'm a 6'8 Malaysian body builder living in California, I make Ramen plastic for a living, and on the week ends I bench press homeless people for tips

i don't know how to say this but, its nice to see other like minded people thinking about it being bait, really. it gives me hope people here actually understand this kind of shit unlike on literally any other platform

TIL. No idea how it relates to the post so consider me clueless.

glowie (plural glowies)

(Internet slang, derogatory, far-right) A government agent or informant infiltrating an online political space, with the supposed intention of surveilling violent extremists or provoking entrapment.

well, you said yourself how it relates to this post in your definition, an agent who is doing some kind of surveillance to better understand a group, usually to control them, villify them, etc. the trouble is, most of the time this kind of work is done not against extremists, but activists and minority groups like us so they can oppress us and strip away our rights

Euphoric cat is a CIA plant who's handler is Vaush and they report together to Amtrak Biden

Is ramen plastic like the bowl or…?

[–] AdmiralShat@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Movie prop Ramen. I 3D print squiggly cubes

Is that more cost effective to the budget than just a 20¢ cup of ramen? Or is it that it looks better on camera than the real thing like using mashed potatoes for ice cream commercials?

[–] AdmiralShat@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago

It's significantly more expensive, they write it off on their taxes as charity, as all proceeds go to the homeless people I bench press
