Exactly, that's what the little bin next to the toilet is for.

~~It's a secret third option, I suspect. You stated that everyone is equal so (by my interpretation) they meant to show you the difference between theory and practice. As in "if you've ever worked in the service industry you'd have experienced first-hand that often you are not treated as an equal".~~

Everybody is equal, but many assholes don't see it that way.

Edit: nevermind. Just got to the other comments further down and am shown, again, the folly of giving the benefit of the doubt.

Well, actually, exceptions can be important to lend blanket statements some nuance. Wait, I'm doing it right now, aren't I?

To me, an ignorant person who has only begun to seriously question capitalism after being exposed to lemmy for about a year, this visual analogy seems to imply that capitalism and fascism are thought to be distinct in the eyes of the maker of this meme, though. I think the suggestion of having them both be homelander conveys a different message which seems to be the consensus here: they are different sides of the same coin.

Admittedly, I'm out of my element here but I'm enjoying the exposure.

So, nobody got paid to make that.

My guess would be the TV wasn't in 'game mode'. Which is to say it was doing a lot of post-processing on the image to make it look nicer but costs extra time, delaying the video stream a little.

I ragequit the puzzles on the rockstar captcha. Incredibly infuriating. I was reminded of the famous greentext from way back predicting we'd have to drink a verification can of mountain dew and for a moment that seemed less insane than the reality of these impossible puzzles. Had to get someone to help me solve them after cooling off for a moment.

Last I played (couple weeks ago) insurance didn't cost anything. At some point it'll cost in game credits but right now there's no insurance premium. You can spend some credits to expidite the return timer if you can spare it.

What? The point of star citizen is exactly that kind of emerging gameplay. I can almost guarantee the person whose spaceyacht was stolen had fun here too. Nothing was lost, the ships are insured and you can just call them back a short while after they're destroyed.

Reading the title I thought they took away the lunch breaks of people working with children and thought "that would de heartless". Then it dawned on me what the title actually says...

I'm assuming that's a side effect. Looking it up it seems to have started because the people of the time believed it reduced transmission of STDs and that it lessens the urge to masturbate.

Yeah, I don't believe these megachurch pastors believe the word of God at all, or they wouldn't be in that line of work.

Somehow in being an atheist I'm a more honest Christian than them in that I at least state outright that I'm not a Christian. That's more honest than pretending to be Christian just to leverage people's hopelessness to scam them into an even more dire and hopeless situation.
