We probably disagree on a lot of things, but attacking Wikipedias non-profit status because of bias is just wrong. I was a treasurer on an aviation related charity that had a bias towards certain information and political positions that benefited aviation, should I have had our 501c3 status revoked?

Wikipedia has a pretty strong left leaning slant, but more power to them. I choose to just not consult them on political or historical topics, and honestly I would much rather have Wikipedia around than the slop that is ChatGPT or Gemini

But Seattle doesn’t do cocaine Remember Microsoft is on the east side

Okay…. Cocaine probably played a large part

Best cocaine in Puget Sound comes from Bellevue, prove me wrong

A professor once told me “don’t trust ‘free software’ from a megacorp”, most important thing I learned in college.

Did Harlan Ellison sue this movie, too? Jokes aside, Mr. Ellison is a prime example of how you can be super creative and provide so much joy to the world while also being a major asset hole.

But Gondor is the remnant of númenor which was started by a half elf

Without going into detail I know there are a lot of things that are illegal to patent for more or less bureaucratic reasons, like paraphernalia, but you can get around it by saying that it’s for tobacco. Also, the military branches have representatives that work in the patent office, so if you find a unique way to kill people you are about to either become very rich, or very arrested.

But I want to be angry at you about something that is out of both of our control. Let me have my moment!

Hasn’t it? Markets up 12%

I feel like that’s going to be the response. When stocks were dropping “THIS IS BECAUSE OF TRUMPS TARIFFS!!!” And now that they are going back up they will say “Well…. There are a lot of factors that go into global economics and it’s not a monolith”

Markets rebounding, is the earth flat?

Markets rebounding hard

Markets rebounding, told you so…

companies are not going to invest in domestic production

$1.1 trillion already committed to building in US. Not sure what you are talking about

You fought in the trenches against the Nazis? You must be over 100 years old!

Edit:

Child: Grandpa, did you serve in the Great War?

Grandpa: No, I experienced much worse, I fought the Nazis on 4chan via chat from the comfort of a $3800 studio apartment in Seattle with my parents trust fund money.

I hope blankets get banned over this. They are basically a giant net and keep the fascists warm. The world would be better without them.

If we don’t have meetings then how am I going to not get any work done this sprint?

If avoiding conflict was a sport, a random person from Seattle would take home gold from the Olympics every four years.

Nice

Yea let’s advocate for the people who think the answer to being gay is pushing those people off of buildings. Let’s let the people you want in so they can force a theocracy where women are second class citizens and have to wear burkas
