I’d say they’re paying for a similar experience, but that’s likely why I shouldn’t be there

bobs_monkey@lemmy.zipto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•There is no good reason why there is still homelessness and poverty0·3 days agoAlso, I’ve been sober from alcohol and drugs for close to 30 years now … and I’m perfectly aware of all this and think about this stuff all the time. We don’t need mind altering drugs to understand how stupid, greedy and corrupt our world is, has always been and will always be until we destroy ourselves and free this planet of our own stupidity.
You have to remember that most people, especially Americans, are brainwashed from birth to believe that the current order of the affairs is the best and only way to operate a society, and that anything else is, ahem, communism, which is the worst possible thing there is. For many, psychedelics has been the most impactful way for an individual to actually think outside the box on a visceral level since their conditioning since birth has been one of “this is the only way to think, so hop on board lest you be cast out of society.” It’s the entire reason why these substances are illegal, can’t have people thinking for themselves out of lockstep with the prescribed mentality.

Surely you can’t be serious
80 on the tire side wall, 60 on the door
On my 3/4 ton work truck, my tires max at 80psi and I fill them to 60psi. BFG A/TS.
bobs_monkey@lemmy.zipto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•In shower today: "I bet my YouTube account is older than most of the people on YouTube." ...Yes, yes it is.0·12 days agoI dunno, I think all my Lego sets are a factor more expensive than my rack.
At this point it’s on web developers, and they sure as hell are prioritizing chromium browsers, likely out of time constraint (and also fuckery at the behest of corporate overlords).
I went to book rooms tonight in Vegas at the Golden Nugget for the solar convention this week.
Firefox couldn’t click through to the booking page. It worked for one room but not two. Chromium worked (ish), but also tried to say that it was almost double the rack rate than what the listing showed on Firefox.
I eventually went to kayak and despite glitches, booked the rooms, and still ended up paying more than I should have.
The Internet has become fundamentally broken due to sites trying their stupid fuckery of tracking and pricing shenanigans, let alone just trying to find basic information.
(Sorry I’m drunk and pissed off)
