I spent an hour of my time today hopelessly sending likes, and thoughtful and mostly humourous messages to people on Hinge. The plague doesn’t sound as bad right now in comparison.

Psythik ,

Who?

Kiernian ,

Because no one is answering you, “hawk tuah” is the nickname for a lady who got stopped by one of those annoying YouTubers/tiktokkers doing the old nighttime talk show “man on the street” gig, stopping pedestrians and asking them stupid questions in the hopes of getting an equally stupid or funny answer.

The question was something like “what’s the most whatever thing you can do in bed with a guy that something something” or whatever, I forget the specific question because it reminded me of the crap you see on the cover of cosmopolitan magazine.

Anyway, this gal says the functional equivalent of “spit on his dick(to lube him up)” only she says it like “you gotta give it that HAWK TUAH” making a sound like she’s Hocking up a huge lugey and spitting it out in the downward direction.

She is now known as hawk tuah and I think someone is trying to put her on reality TV.

HoustonHenry ,

Considering that we have three seasons of a show called “F-Boy Island” on broadcast television, I’m not very suprised someone wants to make her a star

Psythik ,

TBF no one watches broadcast television anymore, so they’ll stick anything on the airwaves to fill the schedule.

It’s either that, or go the way of MTV and show nothing but endless reruns of one show. I don’t know why they haven’t renamed it “The Rob Dyrdek Network” by now and called it a day.

Leave it to Peter Thiel to fund a dating app that excludes him from the user base. He’s probably assuming his wealth will protect him from the jackboots but I think he needs to read his history more.

Come on my dude. They are probably just friends and ol’ Vlad was just giving him a belated or early birthday gift over a lovely brunch of blinis and caviar.

And if anyone is wondering why there’s no “end sarcasm” indicator, it’s because the sarcasm should be so fucking obvious that no one currently alive on this planet with access to the internet should be able to misunderstand it.

Drusas ,

I do find it rather odd how we Millennials and Gen X had little trouble understanding sarcasm on the internet, overall, but over the last couple of years there's suddenly this huge push that we need to use '/s' to make it extra super obvious. Does Gen Z not use sarcasm?

Klear ,

Hmm, it never occured to me it could be a generational thing. It was a thing on reddit, but there was also a lot of pushback and ultimately good sarcastic comments tended to survive. It feels much worse here, which I attributed to demographics.

aStonedSanta ,

It’s for neurodivergent people imo. I sometimes have trouble with it. Plus. I’ve seen some shit on the internet. It’s hard to know these days 😆

JovialMicrobial ,

Drusas ,

Lots of neurodivergent people learn and enjoy sarcasm. But it does stay a little hard to recognize, yes. Adding the '/s' kind of ruins the joke, though.

aStonedSanta ,

Oh. I love and enjoy sarcasm. I do not pick up on it well in text because you are all strangers so the nuance for me is cloudy if that makes sense. I also browse /all and uh im generally really stoned. Lol

Lucidlethargy ,

It seems the Russians won the war after all, as I look around at all of these clearly compromised people running our country, or trying to run the country. Half our political system is ensuring they do this without any criticism whatsoever.

The idiots have all but won. Idiocracy is becoming a reality, and I say that with no humor or jest whatsoever.

I’m hoping I’ll see more stories about this in the mainstream news, along with Dems reminding voters that Republicans said for years that “Roe was settled law,” and “they’re not going to overturn Roe.” Ending their statements with, “when someone tells you who they are, believe them.”

It’s sad when the best candidate that the Democrats can field against a Fascist who literally tried to stage his own Beer Hall Putsch against Congress and kickstart the Fourth Reich… is a senile fossil who should be in a care home, not the White House.

Ragnarok314159 ,

The democrats could run a literal cup of coffee and I would vote for it before that draft dodging, child rapist piece of shit Trump.

Crow_Thief ,

Well shit, why even have a president then? Lets just have a king, accountable to nobody. Thats what youre suggesting, after all. That whoever is in power wont even be publically known.

Throw_away_migrator ,

Real executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not some farcical aquatic ceremony

anindefinitearticle ,

I’m down with that. Direct election of cabinet members, judges, military brass, and anyone else that the president hires to delegate work. Presidents don’t work, they hire. The people should be the ones hiring. Some cabinet seats would in turn gain the power of vote to exercise other formerly presidential powers, such as signing or vetoing bills. All meetings with other world leaders (for example) are managed by the ambassador to the UN, directly elected by the people. We would ranked vote for who we think the best ambassador would be, independent of the best labor secretary, etc. Forces us to focus on specific jobs as a framing for the electoral process.

ChronosTriggerWarning ,

“I don’t think that word means what you think it means.” Bruh.

Crow_Thief ,

No, it does. Youre clearly just an imbecile who picked up a couple cutesy retorts that you for some reason are trying to apply anywhere you can imagine, in place of having any actual thoughts.

ChronosTriggerWarning ,

Three whole days to come up with THAT response?! Do please, call off the dogs!

Oh, child. I never deflected, i ignored your bad-faith arguments, which you have in spades. “Who did Trump genocide?” Same as Biden, no one. How many Americans have died under Biden due to a botched pandemic response? Is it more than a million, cos thems Trump numbers…

At least I’m not the one regurgitating Russian propaganda and pretending that it’s my original thoughts. I can’t wait to read your response around Halloween.

Crow_Thief ,

Yeah cause I was busy having a life and didnt get on lemmy. Not all of us are no lifers like you. Biden aides in a genocide. Trump didn’t. And youre literally blaming trump for a pandemic happening under him? How stupid are you?

ChronosTriggerWarning ,

Such a fulfilling life you lead. Must get tiring receiving those propaganda orders from your handler. I’m honored that I’m such an important figure in your busy and important life that you deem it necessary to reply to me. Thanks!

Biden aides in a genocide. Trump didn’t. And youre literally blaming trump for a pandemic happening under him?

Swing and a miss, Bud. I don’t blame Trump for Covid, i blame him for his response to Covid. An important distinction that’s obviously too nuanced for you… Biden hasn’t “aided” in genocide any more at than any other American president. If you’re assertion was that he’s helped fuel one, then we can agree. But this idea that’s he’s got his hands dirtier than TRUMP is fucking stupid.

Trump fumbled a pandemic response leading to the deaths of over a million Americans. AFTER he dismantled the pandemic response set up by Obama. Trump’s the mass murderer you claim Biden to be.

Crow_Thief ,

Youre right, i have much better things to do than reply to some internet troll trying to blame trump for everything bad thats ever happened.

ChronosTriggerWarning ,

And yet, you keep coming back… interesting. Do i make you horny? Randy? Shall we shag now, or shag later?

Do these “better things” include excusing Trump’s actual crimes and fuckups, while also conflating issues to lay at Biden’s feet? Considering that’s what has led us to this point.

    That’s what you get with a FPTP/two party system. Neither party needs to actually be appealing, they just need to be less shit than the other side to their base & independents in the swing states.

    It’s hard not to see this country as doomed.

    Just to point out, since the USA has never been an empire, it would be the “First Reich”. The term “Third Reich” for Germany only fits because it was meant to succeed the HRE (as first Reich) and the German Empire (as second Reich)

    givesomefucks , in Sacramento high school biology final includes racist questions, targets students

    “For some reason, the African American culture has influenced most of the student body. How? In African Americans, they have a gene for the pimp walk, which is dominant. What is the result if you cross (student name) homozygous dominant Latina with a homozygous recessive Hmong like (student name)?”

    The question goes on to refer to the dominant trait as walking with a limp and the recessive trait as normal.

    The teacher also claimed falling asleep in class was dominant.

    And all the examples seem to be the same basic question, just different insults shoehorned in.

    boonhet ,

    Sounds like they were trying to test students on how dominant/recessive genes work, but trying to make jokes so it’d feel relatable. But the jokes are just not funny at all. You have to be REAL close to someone for that to be a joke instead of an insult.

    Donjuanme ,

    To me it sounds like none of us have context, and although inappropriate I suspect it’s far less devastating to the kids being tested than it would be to outside observers imagining themselves in the kids shoes.

    My senior year had a teacher who slipped in a bunch of insider knowledge “material” into their exams to see who was paying attention/wasn’t there that day (“this ocean current should not be confused with this similarly named walk that we used to do when I was in school, if you see it spelled this incorrect way it’s the walk and not the current” (only without the latter qualifier), if any of you have ever taken this class, and didn’t miss lecture that day, you’ll know exactly which high school I went to and who’s class I’m talking about, hit me up!)
