Fun fact! The reason this happens isn't because you weren't paying attention but because your brain "chooses" which things to remember and doing something monotonous like driving the same stretch of road you always drive causes the brain to sometimes just dump the memory of doing so.

You were conscious the whole time your brain just decided it wasn't worth remembering.

There's too much automation and it's not only making people dumber but causes more expensive problems.

I bring this up every time people talk about vehicle sizes and people always treat me like a conspiracy theorist.

Holy shit this comment section is either all bots or there's a whole section of lemmy that goes out of its way to deliberately ignore the comedic irony of this.

I hate it because it's ai. You hate it because it's "homophobic??"

As if portraying someone who hates lgbtq people as being lgbtq is anything more than making fun of them for hating lgbtq people.

Is it any different than censored words in TV shows or movies? You hear pretty much the entire word with just a single syllable beeped out that for me at least immediately fills with the correct syllable effectively making the censorship pointless.

This wasn't supposed to come off as "defeatism" just that people ignore these truths and want to act like the majority of people aren't being blatantly ~~ignored~~ suppressed.

Got banned from reddit for telling someone to crawl back into their hole (which is apparently a euphemism for telling someone to kill themselves???) for defending circumcision while saying female genital mutilation was unacceptable.

They thought mutilating baby penises was fine but not baby vaginas. So I called out the hypocrisy and told them to "crawl back into [their] hole".

Been here ever since.

People like to conveniently forget about gerrymandered voting maps and the ever growing influence rich people have over the govt through lobbying and bribes.

The US has been an oligarchal democracy for decades now where the individuals vote means nothing as everything will be decided behind the scenes by the "elite" class.

Aisha Tyler is that you?

All I can say is 90% of the people working there literally do not care about anything. It's like a factory assembly line where you just mindlessly go through the motions and if you mess up who tf cares.

The worst part is it happens on a consistent basis and the same people always come back just to complain again

Ironically I currently work at McDonald's and could not give a single fuck less about what customers do anymore.

The burnout is real 😮‍💨

The long way

 
 

The chef I work for did a demo on how to properly filet a salmon then told us to come up with a dish that represents our individuality.

So I deep fried it and brushed it with barbecue sauce then put it in the oven to glaze the barbecue then garnished with green onions.

Should've left it in the oven longer so the barbecue could glaze more but was worried about over cooking the salmon.

Overall 9/10. Perfect blend of savory, sweet, and slightly tangy.

 
 
 
 

We were trying to play a game and she had an update.

 
 
 

Cats, dogs, bears, owls, weasels. Most of them could seriously injure/kill an average human with minor difficulty and yet we find them adorable?

Does not compute.
