Ooh, I didn’t know that happened. Nice!

This is the first “TikTok trend” I’ve seen that doesn’t make me cringe

Thank you for correcting their inaccurate reporting.

You nailed it. That’s why I put “okay” in quotes. Those laws exist for a reason, and lionizing cops who break the law only teaches the public to accept that lawbreakers are okay if they’re on Team Good.

Unfortunately, what the government calls “good” and what you and I call “good” are often different things.

I wouldn’t have cared, but I ended up rooting for the Chiefs because it would piss off people I don’t like. Heh heh heh.

I started watching near the end of the 4th quarter, and it turned out to be a surprisingly good ending. It was anyone’s game, right up to the end, and only the second superbowl in history to go into overtime.

I generally don’t like football, so I watched it Live from Bikini Bottom on Nickelodeon.

Applause and sincere appreciation to whoever decided to name the protest "Free The Peach”.

At the moment, no outlets seem to have reported a motive for the attack.

Okay…

The California DMV suspended Waymo rival Cruise’s robotaxi operations after one of its cars struck and dragged a pedestrian last year, and prior to that, automated taxis had caused chaos in the city, blocking traffic or crashing into a fire truck. Just last week, a Waymo car struck a cyclist who had reportedly been following behind a truck turning across its path.

Motive? Gee, I’m stumped.

I made fun of one of my friends for reading trashy romance novels. She just shrugged and said “I know they’re terrible, but I like them.” She was very calm and matter-of-fact about it. She wasn’t embarrassed, and didn’t try to defend herself.

I felt like a jerk, but since then I’ve remembered not to criticize someone’s harmless personal hobbies. If they’re not hurting anyone, why be cruel and take enjoyment away from people?

Do I really have to explain that if people own fewer pets, there will be less demand for pet related products?

I’m done wasting my time on this.

OP isn’t suggesting killing pets, and I’m sure not, so I don’t know where you’re getting that dramatic, emotional idea from. Since you don’t have any pets, and you’re already trying to reduce your impact on the environment, we all appreciate your efforts!

If anyone is thinking about buying a pet, though, think twice. Things may seem okay for now, but humanity is going to have to live MUCH more efficiently in order to survive.

There’s always gonna be “a better place to start first”, no matter what the suggestion is. That’s a popular delaying tactic, and it’s part of the problem. At least this is something we can control ourselves, instead of waiting for governments/corporations to act.

Still funny
