Yeah for higher energy bands especially, I just don’t get wanting to sit at shows. I’d rather just not go if I didn’t think I could stand/dance through a concert. I think it’s cool when venues have some designated seating for those who need it but it’s always kind of a bummer when I go and it’s mostly or only seated…kinda kills the energy
Yeah, I'd much rather be on gen-ad and standing than sitting up in the bleachers, but for some concerts it's like 4x more for gen-ad over seated sections. Sucks, but I'd rather see the band sitting than pay that ridiculous mark up for it.
there’s something really funny about the idea of the hitherto metaphorical kids on one’s lawn clipping the lawn, and that being the thing that gets the old guy all grumpy in this scenario. Like not loitering or doing drugs, just unauthorised lawn maintenance.
I read it as 'walk across the corner of your lawn". Old geezers meme is them yelling at people to “stay off my lawn” Although unauthorised lawn maintenance would piss them off just as well I suppose.
I have to show my cats all sorts of stuff, bolts, tools, gamepads, pens. They’re incredibly nosy, not curious, as that kills cats, just nosy and inquisitive.
My dog all of the time. Anything I think he’ll find interesting. But especially if he’s been curiously watching me with the item. Dogs love inspecting new things.
I assume most meme makers live sedintary lives which has their own forms of wear and tear (always sitting, poor posture, lots of concrete surfaces) and not exercising enough makes any physical labor hurt more becase they aren’t used to it.
Big generalization but that also describes me when left to my own devices. I felt a lot better getting outside and working mildly physical jobs
Walking is surely if one of the best things you can do to yourself if you have an otherwise sedentary lifestyle - actually uses a lot of muscles, feels less of a chore because you can easily be preoccupied by multiple other things in parallel (enjoying the view, thinking about things, having a phone call, listening to a podcast, thinking about your destination, etc.).
I’ve been working remotely for several years now, but one of my jobs used to start later late in the day, so I had some free time before that, which I used to walk around doing chores - felt great. Once I moved to the other job, with a more traditional schedule starting in the morning and ending in the evening, but still a bit off for my timezone, I stopped walking as much - gained a lot of extra weight just because I stopped “exercising” as much due to having awkward hours to do chores before or after work.
Dark type has nothing to do with being down on your luck, disillusioned or worn out, but encapsulates using unhonorable techniques when fighting. Sucker Punch, Knock-Off, Throat Chop, Bite, etc.
Marc Owen Jones, an associate professor of Middle East studies at Hamad Bin Khalifa University in Qatar who studies misinformation, told NBC News that he found that the source of the “40 babies beheaded” allegations largely stemmed from a viral Israeli news broadcast clip that did not specifically refer to the allegation.
Nicole Zedeck, a correspondent for the privately owned Israeli news outlet i24NEWS, said in the video that Israeli soldiers told her they’d found “babies, their heads cut off.” The video has been viewed more than 11 million times on X, according to its view counter. In another tweet, Zedeck wrote that soldiers told her they believe “40 babies/children were killed.”
“Somehow those two bits of information were connected, the story became ‘40 babies were beheaded,’ and in the British press today, about six or seven newspapers had it on their front pages,” Jones said.
An IDF spokesperson, Doron Spielman, told NBC News on Tuesday that he could not confirm i24NEWS’s report.
He’s not an idiot because he’s a capitalist. It’s that capitalism encourages the idiotic type to try shit out, because those are the ones with most self-confidence. They’re mostly also the least likely to really consider the responsibilities such as: your employees depend on you now, if you fuck up majorly, you’ll screw over all your employees’ lives, potentially their families too, potentially irreversibly
So yea, the function of “CEO” naturally attracts cretins.
And God forbid such a moron’s business becomes even slightly successful, because guess who suddenly feels smarter, less accountable for his terrible character flaws and toxic behavior? That’s right. Usually, businesses which make it are mostly just lucky. But you can’t explain this to cpt douchebag, he thinks he’s magically smarter and better at life than anyone.
And the better the company does, the more the Boss will indulge in his dysfunction and craziness.
That’s why, statistically bosses are highly probable to be the scourge of humanity. It’s not just capitalism. it’s just the toxic mix of luck, power and stupidity - all three combined with whichever the boss’ character flaws and weaknesses are. Only in capitalism, power usually takes the form of money, that’s all. But the issue is even deeper with people.
(i hate capitalism too, but I think blaming it all on capitalism and calling it a day isn’t gonna address such a fundamental issue with people. I come from an ex communist country and that shit is just equally toxic if brought to it’s extreme version - and for the same reasons to do with the human psyche too.)
