Yeah gonna back you on this one, maybe I’m I’ve got a bit too much Scottish blood but the risks involved in it are too high and reliant on an inmate volatility. If ya have the extra cash to spare get a good pair of boots, tools, or equipment which are good investments the difference between a yearly replacement and a bi yearly replacement may very well be 30 bucks.

Also yes I am paraphrasing Sir Terry Pratchett.

It isn’t necessarily about instant gratification though, as far back as 8-Track folks have been able to choose what music they listened to which to me suggest that the instant I want to listen to x isn’t the driving factor. My personal money on the downfall of radio is that there are simply better options that fill the same niche, talk radio was replaced by podcasts and radio stations was replaced by setting YouTube to autoplay.

I say this all as someone who plays with and collects old tech, Radios biggest advantage was that it was cheap and wide reaching but was always on a losing battle. The second we were able to standardize a large scale format that could maintain relevence it was in many ways inevitably doomed, we standardized pretty damned well with MP3. My personal hope is that radio gets deregulated and gets absolutely filled with amateur and pirate stations, only radio station I ever like was a pirate station circa 2008 which played whatever folks submitted on his website I wish to see that everywhere.

With the exception of concerts I feel like a lot of the things you listed are irrelevant why listen to the radio which maybe will play something I like when I can listen to shit I know I like on youtube music, why bother with the big record labels when smaller ones may do well enough, hell you dont even need a label if you dont plan on any merch, what relevence is a discman when I can have 500 songs on my phone. We are in a golden age of music, it’s just a lot more indie. I can listen to Tyr, Hulkoff, and Danheim with ease even though in the 90s they’d have been largely restricted to Scandinavia.

Much like with videogames the 90s was a glorious era for music but to act like we are in the dark ages is foolish, the dark ages for music was easily the early to mid 2000s.

Fun fact that was supposed to be a long action scene but Harrison Ford and like half of the film team had dysentery. So they did the scene as we know it.

There is a version of it that isn’t cognitive dissonance but, willful hypocrisy is kinda its own thing. Basically to use one I hold genocide is bad, I would gleefully commit genocide against the Seventh Day Adventists. These are both positions I hold and recognize make me a hypocrite, but frankly speaking I ain’t a fan of organized religions, holier than though types, or folks who piss off my family for a hundred and fifty fucken years. But yeah it can vary in severity of the hypocrisy and severity.

As an aside I mean the destruction of their culture and religion via the destruction of community, mostly at least id probably shoot at least one or two for being annoying but that’s just me being openl murderous. I don’t believe in hiding how much of an asshole I am, if ya know it’s a bear trap don’t complain when it bites you.

Because you can’t play New Vegas all the time?

Maybe I’m projecting a bit, fuck it TTW is only about 20 percent installed for me who gives a fuck.

Aight, like I give a damn about being reported woopty fucken doo.

Sure but it’d be funny, we should build a wickerman! We can get the BEES!!!

Just get Maine to join Canada, far easier.

Sure though don’t blame me if I’m a shit at it, just woke up so actual proper insult ain’t really on the table. Ya know what ain’t gonna try formulating insults I’m just gonna bitch like an asshole, far easier doesn’t require any wit.

So there’s the fact he is weirdly obsessed with the letter X for some gods forsaken reason, you’d think he was a 6 year old who just watched a documentary on Crusader cryptology and internal symbolism. There’s also his retarded obsession with old school sci-fi and cyberpunk more specifically but then again all these rich cunts seem to have that type of obsession with old literature. Also who the fuck pulls from Heinlein and goes with fucken grok? Seriously there’s far better Heinlein references ya man child.

Ok, best I can pull off. Like I said literally just woke up and am sitting in a hot room with mild dehydration cause I drool and sweat at the same time great combo that one.

Anyways I think attacking Musk for anything and everything is valid mostly because he is infact a Nazi. He could get domed by a fucking piece of meteorite and I’d call him a fuck up for it, maybe blame his plastic surgery for his death or something IDFK. Dudes so dysfunctional that if ya walked around in eggshells with him he would be rather hard to attack for his personality traits, and I am infact an asshole so I want to attack him over his dumbass traits.

I think you need to Czech next door to Poland to find a Cz sound.

Instructions perfectly clear.

Adopts metric clock and calendar only

Sure, but that only really works when you have something to offer that others don’t. Fact of the matter is Tesla is fucked one way or the other, the traditional car companies are making electric vehicles now, that means any market shrinkage Tesla faces is libel to be filled by their competitors. Combine that with the fact that the market has turned outright hostile and well ya have what we see now.

That’s not even getting into the fact that their stock is falling and the fact they have have to deal with the millstone around their neck called the cyber truck.

Yep because it drops the resale price, the cheaper the used ones are the more it eats into their new sale margins. If you could get the resale price down to id say they $5000 range you’d probably see folks buying them with the express purpose of fucking with them, which may further damage their reputation since rather than it being a prestige car it’d be the “I wanted to labatomize and modify an electric vehicle” car.

No, as I said previously Musk has the personality of being narcissistic that much is obvious him having NPD or not is irrelevant. One of the facts of having a mental illness is working with it and overcoming the worst elements to the best of ones abilities. Regardless of if Musk has NPD he most certainly is letting his other more obvious issues such as his overflowing ego, addictive personality, and maladaptive tendencies control him hell id even say he is going out of his way to wallow in it.

Perhaps I am encouraging folks to harass one very specific person who may have NPD, but frankly speaking Musk deserves to be degloved and rolled around in salt like the worst meat stick. Sorry but I ain’t seeing your point of view on this one.

I’m addressing the trait of narcissism not the mental illness of narcissistic personality disorder. Two different things ones a mental illness and the other is being a maladaptive bitch who thinks they’re the center of the universe and everyone else is an NPC, I’ll give you that musk is definitely mentally fucked by multiple metrics but it ain’t ableist to point out that his mental issues are contributing to his political spiral. Just like how my mother’s abuse was made worse by her bipolar swings Musks Nazi tendencies were caused by his maladaptions and accelerated by his addiction.

Analysis requires acknowledgement of all factors and guess what to analyze Musk you have to factor in his mental instability. Mental illness often times often times works as an acceleratent for negative tendencies I know this from personal experience, both with my mother and my own issues since PTSD and autism is a right volatile mix.

Regardless I don’t feel like there’s any point in being not ableist to Musk, it’d probably piss him off. Treat him like the depressed little shit stain he is, maybe we will get lucky and he’ll decide to air out his skull with a 12 gauge slug.

Fun fact back in I want to say 2008 there was a big old anti-gay protest thing that filled up a stadium here in California, turned out a solid chunk of attendees were bussed in by the Mormon fucken church. Sadly this fact wasn’t dug up particularly well until after prop 8(?) which banned gay marriage, luckily I think we have since voted it out. Also yes it did swing public opinion that badly, luckily I think it reaffirmed our weird xenophobia here in California so I don’t think it’d work again.

His narcissism most certainly has to do with his political choices, especially since it seems his narcissism is driving him to do stupider and more damaging actions. Also I doubt he is autistic dude was looking for an excuse for being unfunny and about as charismatic as a rotting opposum corpse cooking on the side of the road, also the afformentioned uncontrolled narcissism and long history of lying makes anything he claims suspect.

Lol get fucked ya South African sub-human, teach ya to tempt the fates with your eugenicist bullshit.

They needed to do more smaller scale raids on remote plantations for longer, bleeding Kansas was a start but insufficient.
