I worked at a fruit processing plant. We found maggots in the blueberries. Line got shut down for obvious reasons.

Owner of the company came in and said 'pack them anyway'. We knowingly sent out blueberries with maggots in them.

Needless to say that company sucks and people hate working there.

4094 divided by 2 is 2047 male anscestors. The average volume of semen per ejaculation is roughly 3 mL on average.

2047 x 3 is 6141 mL of cum or 6.14 L of cum or about a gallon and a half.

The average fuel efficiency for cars in the US (sorry Europeans) is 25 mpg. This means if cum had the same energy density as gasoline you could travel roughly 37.5 miles on all the cum your male anscestors produced in the last 400 years.

The ending is gold.

The Trump team's response?

'That guy is a psycho, dont listen to him'.

Sounds like the kind of excuse the annoying high school kid uses. What a country.

Thats a pretty weak argument my dude.

I havent seen the Huffington Post website in years. Clicked on this to see the video. About 20 seconds of the video, 30 seconds of ads, another 20 second clip. More ads.

At least the article isnt paywalled. Ill give them that.

True. But Im only factoring loads splurted resulting in reproductive success leading to you.

Is this another landline poll? Those are notoriously and increasingly useless.

Im glad you pointed out the algorithm thing. Seems like people get fed up with social media platforms like X(?) and Reddit and then come to alternatives demanding the same features that, at least in part, led to them being fed up in the first place.

I actually disagree with OPs assertion that these federated platforms are 'almost as good'. Theyre better. More features doesnt mean a better platform and in my opinion often makes them worse.

I mean, Song 2 by Blur.

Made to make fun of grunge and instead made a banger of a grunge-ish song.

On a shitposting community?! Gasp! My pearls!

Cum mathematics is still a developing field.

How many were never discovered in the first place, though?

Just a select few tattoos with certain...uh...symbols.

Nothing spices up the climate crisis like a little bit of possible world war and nuclear threats.

Spicy planet we have here lately.

In Canada, so no USDA but yeah, should have reported it. The shipment got sent back anyway because the stores rejected it. By the time it got there it was rotten.

The owner of the company is the kind of dipshit that spends a dollar chasing pennies. We've sent out subpar berries knowing full well they will be rejected. The owner still tries anyway. Complete moron.

It is my god given right as a free American to have a heart attack because I heard a loud honk, die at the wheel, take out a family in a minivan, careen off a cliff, and land through the roof of the Walmart off the interstate.

I wasnt young when it came out. Joke's on you.

New England has a decently strong Acadian presence. But Acadians dont typically think of themselves as French, per se. They think of themselves as Acadian. The French influence is recognized of course, but its a different way of looking at ancestry.

We have this in Canada too. I see them littered all over the place. Its not terribly effective.

Same in Canada. Every year we hear of at least one province debating privatizing healthcare as though thats gonna fix our problems and not just make it exponentially worse.

If a platform exists, it has porn on it.

No no, when they say do your research they mean browse Facebook conspiracy groups, not actual scientific literature.

Duh.

Yeah but our berries were rejected constantly because the owner tried shit like this. We lost at least one contract a year while I was there.

Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana

Yea yeah, I know there are better Nirvana songs but that one I can listen to forever.

I own an EV. Whats to 'crawl back to'? The constant maintenance costs? The expensive fuel? The shittier driving experience? The worse noise and vibration?

Nah, bruh. Im good. I will never go back to ICE.

I have to admit, I like the smaller community size here. There's more real conversation going on. The downside to mass migration is that that is put at risk.

That said a federated platform has an advantage here. It allows for niche communities to thrive in a way that I think was harder on centralized platforms like Reddit.

I would love to say but its a small company in a fairly small community and I dont want to say for privacy reasons. Wouldnt make it too hard to figure out where I live.

Lets just say if you buy any blueberries labelled IFC (international fruit company) there is a chance they are our berries.

Just to be clear, I did NOT work for the IFC. We just packaged our berries for them and sent them out with their label. I cannot comment on the quality of IFC products in general.

WEdaho

People who just want to listen to old school FM radio.

I dont have a degree in advanced theoretical cumonomics so I have to make some base assumptions.

Reject humanity. Return to duck.

I bought a simple spin bike thirdhand. Guy who owned it before me got it from a gym. You twist a knob and it increases pressure on a leather brake. Its built like a tank.

Its great and like you say, if I wanted I could just look up spin videos on youtube for free.

Why would I bother with a Peloton?

Windows is designed for the average user and does very well in that regard. It prevents people with very little computer knowledge from totally messing things up.

Im sitting here in Canada just learning these exist in the first place.

When you help a campaign based on a race to the bottom, always expect to be a casualty on the way down.

Sweet home Alabama.

On a human timescale? No.

On a cosmic timescale? Hell yeah.

Crying Lightning - Arctic Monkeys

Not sure why but its got a strange summer vibe for me.

Interstate Love Song - STP
