I mean, being strictly pedantic, the sperm has to come from somewhere. So I guess it depends on whether you consider an orgasm in a strange room with a small rack of nudie mags to be “sexual gratification”.

Nostalgia hit, right in the gut!

Seconding Plex / Plexamp if the use case involves streaming remotely. Probably the easiest to get up and running for remote access.

I’m not sure about the capabilities of hosting on a Pi, but it should be straightforward to run a couple different apps in parallel to test and compare features (I’m currently doing exactly that with Plex and Jellyfin)

I’m pretry much on board for replacing *ist/*phobic with just plain weird now. Enough of them seem to equate being called racist/sexist/transphobic or whatever with eliciting anger, which is what they thrive on.

There’s still a time and place for the specific (and accurate) labels, but many of these clowns are just sad and, well, weird attention-seekers.

You may be right. I really hate that it’s so hard to tell sometimes.

I am genuinely interested in the line of logic that links “About to become leader of the free world” with "dated Montel Williams in 2001’.

That tweet is so on the nose, if I had read it in isolation, I would have assumed it was someone being ironic or trolling the racists.

The curry bit is stupid (because curry is delicious and smells good), but I could 100% see an Indian comic using the lines about speeches being facilitated by call center and customer satisfaction surveys as part of their set, because the mental image is honestly kind of funny.

For $700 they could at least throw in a 4k Blu-ray player.

Then again, I ponied up extra for the disc version of the original ps5 for that exact reason, only to find out the media player software is a giant piece of garbage that was clearly given no effort. So I can’t say I’m too surprised.

American here. I’m choosing to believe that this is just a normal, everyday amount of poop-related slang for the UK, and that you’re not playing it up for comedic effect.

The names of the “similar” rides… LOL

Is this literally a petrochemical plant themed water park?

Came into the comments to read about petting baby cows. Left feeling icky. ☹️

Maybe its just cause I’m high, but baby cows are frickin adorable, and now I’m thinking about finding a rancher friend.

(what most people incorrectly call casserole)

Threadbare Merkin would be an excellent band name!

Anyone else do a double-take at that thumbnail while quickly scrolling?

Alrighty then, carry on

Check the bottom of the bollard, it looks visible damaged where it meets the ground, like it had bent backwards towards the camera.

I think the OP is right. It wouldn’t need elasticity; it got bent down just far enough for the back end of the car to ride up on it, then when they pulled forward it dragged the bollard upright, at which point it punched through the floor.

My guess is the metal had begun to rust where it meets the ground, and then some freeze thaw cycles crumbled the concrete, leaving it weak right where it meets the ground.

I personally underestimated the support Harris would get. I remember lots of progressives being unhappy with her back in 2020, due to her background as a prosecutor.

Between that and the obvious reasons Republicans would go after her, I figured it would be an uphill battle.

Very happy to have been wrong!

I get Robin Wright vibes. Maybe they were going for the subliminal House of Cards reference?

I have to disagree a little bit personally. It can be a chore, but sometimes there is a sense that you’re taking this generic piece of tech sold by the millions and tailoring it to your personal preferences. It’s a little silly and superficial, but it can add a little extra enjoyment to that whole experience of getting a new shiny that you’ve been looking forward to.

All that said, paying $95 for the experience of setting up a used exercise bike is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard.

Yep, I was wearing that clown makeup too. Dems have not impressed me much lately with being able to deliver a coherent and effective message, so I was fully prepared for a shitshow of disarray if/when Biden dropped out.

It was very surprising to me how effectively they were able to leave Trump stumbling just as he seemed to be on the upswing. The utter lack of disorder around it almost feels like Biden was planning to drop out of the race all along, just waiting for the right moment… but that’s probably giving him too much credit.
