I’m from the Bible belt and in my experience these people absolutely believe in God and heaven, but probably very little past that. These people mostly have a “vibes based” understanding of their religion but many of them believe it to their absolute core. Most don’t read the bible past the popular verses and even less actually analyze what the text is saying, but that by no means indicates a lack of belief. It’s important to remember that their actions may indicate a lack of belief in the morals they espouse, but that’s cognitive dissonance not secret non-belief.

Love some beamng, keep it coming!

Betraying my age but Ratchet and Clank on the PS2. Great game still definitely holds up, even graphically to some extent.

I have family that lives about 50 miles from this town. It’s a drive through town with ~500 residents, the biggest businesses are Dollar General and Wendy’s. I would be shocked if there were any substantial donors to her campaign

Are you the proud owner of a jumping spider?

Sounds like life’s going great for you then, keep it up. No need to fix what isn’t broken.

The US won the Civilization cultural victory 70 years ago and the world has continually gotten worse as a result.

Simply move to the southeast US, summer starts at the beginning of April and ends around Halloween

Aren’t bimbo titties specifically not jiggly though?

I always mentally read that as “shitter”

Oh wow I had no idea they stopped using the band name. Definitely for the best, I don’t think they’ve really been a band for quite some time.

I heard a story once that he made that song to show how easy it is to have a mega hit song even though he didn’t like it himself, kind of like the guys that formed MGMT. Unsure of the source on that and it could very well be untrue but it would make sense.

I like some of the songs on the subsequent albums but you’re absolutely right. That first album is just banger after banger and each album after got 30-50% worse until we ended up with whatever the hell panic at the disco is today.

One thing I always loved when taking Latin in school was how succinct the insults are. Are you an idiot simply boils down to stultus es, a common insult was fur meaning thief which in practice was used for many circumstances. My favorite was bustirape (pronounced Boos-te-ra-pay) which meant grave robber, but roughly translates to lowdown son of a bitch. Maybe it was because they had to chisel so much of their language into stone, but the Romans really were champions of brevity.

I’m a big car guy so I typically use car makes and models but never ones I actually own, usually I’ll go with some like SubaruImprezaWrxSti2012 except I scramble the order of the words and throw the year in a random position. This is really easy to remember while also being long and insane enough to be difficult to guess.

Remember that admittedly low bar I mentioned? He clears it easily it’s not even a competition. The fact that he hasn’t given the middle finger to every union puts him ahead of the rest.

Okay I’m not a big fan of the guy either but calling him basically Reagan is super disingenuous. He’s without a doubt the most pro-labor president we’ve had in my lifetime which is admittedly a low bar but he is far from Ronald Reagan.

Aho! I’m watching it right now and it’s fantastic, I just started season 3 yesterday. Almost certainly going to be my show of 2024 because it’s easily better than anything I watched in 2023.

Just out of curiosity what’s preventing you from getting a refillable setup? You can get refillable, rechargable vapes for about $10 more than a single disposable and it’ll probably save you money within the month depending on how much you use it.
