UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 06/09/2025To sum up: RFK Jr, “you can’t trust the data.” So why did you change the policies. “Because the data showed vaccines do more harm than good.” Ok, do you have that data to share? “No, you can’t trust the data.” These people are serious fuck-wits 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 08/08/2025Don’t worry, they’ll cut those benefits soon so those numbers will come down 🙄 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/08/2025I mean,… if you want to. No one is stopping you. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 29/07/2025I got into a debate with a right-winger who called everything ‘woke’. When I asked him to define it, he actually gave something close to the original meaning. So I said, “So woke just means to care about other people equally,.. and that’s a bad thing?” 040
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 08/07/2025Not true. I don’t fear pain and discomfort. But I don’t like the idea of missing the next 1,000 years of human development. These monkeys are clever and I’d like to see what they come up with over the long run. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 02/07/2025I’m still a fan of monolithic concrete domes. Cost effective, strong against natural disasters, pest-proof, efficient to heat and cool. The only problem is people say, “but it looks funny” Maybe, but it’ll last 1,000 years,… 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Cowards. Long form interviews get trimmed for time all the time. They would have to demonstrate an intentional manipulation of the final cut in a biased way in order to even have standing. Despite what Joe Rogan says, there is no evidence to support that claim. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 27/06/2025If they were, I’d expect them to behave better. They sure seem to act like they are confident that god is on their side. 050
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Normally I’d be rooting for higher gas prices to encourage market forces into more renewables. But cheap gas is hurting Russia, so for the good of democracies around the world: bring on the cheap gas. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 23/06/2025Democrats seem to forgive nothing among toward their leadership. Meanwhile, republicans can’t seem to do any wrong by their base. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Unfortunately, they likely need both. These are not mutually exclusive. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Or just avoid flying at all if you can help it. I always calculate time to airport, time in TSA, time at terminal, time in air, time to collect bags, and time to final destination. If I can just drive straight there then I don’t need to be strip searched and can bring toothpaste. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 20/06/2025Having been raised Lutheran, no, they do not get irony. Sounds more like a Catholic thing to me… 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 20/06/2025NASA, space x’s largest customer receives 0.5% of our budget, and that’s dropping even further in the current proposals. Blowing up is a natural part of the iterative design process. SLS costs 4+bil per launch. Starship would be around 100mil. That’s 1/40 the cost. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 19/06/2025For what it’s worth, just because Elon is a total jackass doesn’t mean Space X shouldn’t be supported. They have some amazing engineers trying to accomplish some amazing things that will benefit everyone. If they can pull it off, that is. 100
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 19/06/2025I sure hope we have enough institutions left to vote in a year and a half. I mean of course, vote and have it mean something. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 19/06/2025Don’t we just assume they are trying to hack everyone’s secrets? 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 18/06/2025Sweet. I have to pay into this retirement fund my whole working life with no choice in the matter and it won’t be there for me when I need it. Why can’t the media call out republicans for claiming something is broken, then proving their point by breaking it. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 17/06/2025If my dick were also AI then I’d have a laminar flow right into a quarter-sized drain 20 feet away. 020
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 16/06/2025So many questions. 1. How is that supposed to be a praying camel? 2. Even if it were, why would that be significant? 3. What would that be a sign of? 4. Would it be less special if it were a satanic sloth? I mean,… seriously, where to even start.. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 14/06/2025Just got back from No Kings protest in a very red county in NY. There were three pro Trump counter protesters against about 300 protesters,…again, in a very red county. This gives me a degree of hope. 040
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 13/06/2025I mean, technically I think you can buy them all cookies if you can afford it. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 12/06/2025Hannah Arendt pointed out that totalitarian systems force their detractors to resort to less conventional or more violent methods, in turn, giving the totalitarian more justification to become more extreme. This isn’t new. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 11/06/2025I always try to remember: it can always get worse. You could have all your current problems, PLUS explosive diarrhea. You could have been a WW1 soldier in the trenches. So on and so forth. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 11/06/2025“They’re in a better place now.” I absolutely hate that shit. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/06/2025Maybe if Blue Origin would stop dragging its feet, we’d have more options. Don’t even get me started on ULA… 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/06/2025I suppose it depends for how long. I like my strong bones and my dog would miss me. My wife might enjoy the vacation though… 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/06/2025And if he did, do you think he’d be happy with what people have been doing in his name? 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/06/2025,…. Or who’s trying to deport you without any due process,… 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/06/2025If only the fingers were curled a bit more it could be dual purpose,… 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 07/06/2025A politician voting for a bill and then claiming ignorance about its contents is a bit like a doctor prescribing a medication and then claiming ignorance of what it does, what side effects it may have, or if it’ll even address the issue at hand. Political malpractice. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 04/06/2025And when I challenge religion people often ask, ‘what’s the harm?’ If you genuinely think that two cells merging forms a soul, you are not just an idiot, you are a dangerous idiot. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 03/06/2025I challenge the premise. The thinking part can be a powerful modifier to the doing. If I can do a 60 minute job in 30 minutes because I spent a lot of time thinking about it, then that value caries over into every time I do it. Stay active for health, but never stop thinking. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 03/06/2025The real value is in learning and understanding the material. The grades may not reflect that well depending on the evaluation methods, but they do enable you to get that piece of paper. You’re smart. Don’t worry too much about individual grades. If you love the material, you’ll be fine. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 03/06/2025The idea that republicans are the fiscally responsible ones hasn’t been true since before Nixon. Why don’t journalists question this idea that republicans keep spewing? www.investopedia.com/us-debt-by-p...investopedia.comU.S. Debt by President: Dollar and PercentageThe national debt has increased under most U.S. presidents. Here is how much each president's time in office added to the U.S. debt by percentage and dollar amounts. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 03/06/2025Water vapor,… they’re just water vapor. It’s not that fucking complicated, people. 020
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 31/05/2025I wouldn’t say ‘all’. But enough to warrant keeping vigilant. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Thank you Marc. Not just for fighting back, but also for doing it publicly and shining a spotlight on the corruption. 000
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Funny, they haven’t made this argument before when they were arresting violent people without masks. There argument doesn’t address what changed,… 060
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Yep. This is why we need blue voters to get out to every election they can from president down to dog walker. 010
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 30/05/2025He’s a chud. Get your shots now while you still can, people. Who knows how much damage he’s going to do to those production and distribution lines. 1581
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 29/05/2025Don’t feel too sorry for it. I think it was trying to proselytize. 110
UberHypnotoad @uberhypnotoad.bsky.social · 29/05/2025Doing well. My dog killed a groundhog this morning with no injuries to herself. Boss is not at work today, so a relatively easy day. Have a fridge full of beer waiting at home. Pretty good all around. And Jesus had nothing to do with any of it. 110
