For purpose of discussion, assume that due to bad luck, this asteroid has evaded the detection of all amateur and professional astronomers until about six months from impact. The asteroid is too large to deflect with humanity’s current spacefaring capabilities, and the general scientific consensus is that the impact will end...

I fortunately or unfortunately don’t use tik-tak or other short form content. Currently I am helping organize a screening of films about Palestine at a local festival, and realize that short form content is an important part of the current conversation....

What do you think of the following terms?...

It was something CNN was talking about a few months ago. Naturally people emigrate and immigrate all the time, but the way Chinese people were getting to America was a central part of the story. Naturally you never get closure in these stories.

Did people loose their homes? Did people end up jobless?...

You are looking at a very rare car. Toyota only made this all wheel dive vehicle for about 5 years. It treated me very well for the many years I drove it but it has sat idle for a few years and need to make room in my driveway (and I had plans to restore it) She was running fine when I was driving it, except towards the end when...

spoilerThe title was 2024. Apparently it was a Facebook post.

I see you out there. Posting. You should post here too. Why aren’t you? Genuinely curious actually.

My partner has a big butt and has asked to see it. I cannot find it. Several others have asked to see it also....

Not voting for either and not advocating such, just wondering if this lib talking point holds up in reality. I know he recognized Jerusalem as the capital, but dem reads as far more committed overall to the zionist project to me.

“NOOOO YOU HAVE TO PUT ON A THREE PIECE SUIT TO BUY A GROCERIES!!!” wojak-nooo

I need a fan for cooling down but it has to be really good and right now the options are a lasko fan that looks like a snail and a vornado rawr fan. Ideally don’t wanna spend 90$ on a fan but I don’t really care so long as it does a good job, any recommendations are appreciated

I was subjected to a liberal rant about Assad gassing Syrian people, and it sounded like some BS (Just smells like propaganda), but the Internet is a fuck these days and I’m unable to find any informtion I trust, or develop the tools to debunk wikihasbara....

Whenever I buy clothes they always end up getting holes quickly, I burn through socks fast, my bags keep breaking, my phones magically shit themselves and my chargers melt. I’m sick of everything being a wear part and I’m wondering where people get things that last.

Obviously fuck these laws. And even if these laws state that universities cannot legally divest, they should divest anyway and say ‘fuck you, take me to court’–but, with that aside, what are the actual details of these laws?...

On one hand allowing obviously superior and cheaper Chinese EVs into the states at MSRP would obliterate the automakers which are one of the last bastions of organized labor. On the other hand getting cheap EVs into people’s hands is the outer limit of viable climate change action in this treat demon settler country....

Which seasons do you think are best?...

I’m too embarrassed of myself to actually check but I am pretty darn sure that I’ve been sent, cumulatively over the however many months I’ve been panhandling here, over a thousand dollars, and it’s all just gone to stupid shit. I could’ve saved at least some of that and bought a fucking van already, and gotten my...

This is not for sketchy reasons, I swear. All the primo spaces in our apartment building’s bike storage room are taken up by rusting rotting flat-tired cobwebbed piece of shit bikes that clearly haven’t been used in years. Half their owners probably moved out of the building and left them there. I have repeatedly asked...
