If you like your opium, you can keep it

Once the rockets go up, who cares where they come down? That’s not my department, says Wernher von Braun

Booting Gnome for the first time is such a baffling experience. Then you discover extensions and it feels pretty good.

I don’t like that I’m beholden to extensions that may break after an update to get what I want out of it, but I still use it on my laptop cause it’s the best touchscreen experience I’ve had (after tweaks)

Sulfur should be labeled Sulfur tbh 🜍

While they have Mountain Dew in China, I haven’t been able to find images of a Baja Blast variant, it could be the reason.

THEN WHY DO YOU PUT IT ON EVERYTHING

The death of the US Empire is funny until you realize that other countries will need to endure a bunch of US immigrants complaining that roads are too small and the food doesn’t have corn syrup in it.

In the North American Regime, the state militia will kidnap your family if you say the vice president fucked a couch on the internet. Please Mr. Xi, end their oppression

That’s even explored (and partially left to the reader) in The Dispossessed. We’re told that in the anarchist Anarres the only thing that compels anyone to work (and do anything) is the social order, but what is considered worth and valid is relative, there are artists who struggle with social pressure and unable to get their work published (this is a bit of a pre-internet plot point heh).

I dunno, this whole thing about matter and energy being different seems pretty relative

More likely we’ll see South Korea be unified under a single chaebol
