In 50 years we'll be telling people about back when we only had one month of average temps 2c above pre-industrial levels per year, and idiots will still claim it's a hoax.

    You see what happens, Larry?

    You see what happens?

    This is what happens, Larry. This is what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps. This is what happens when you feed a stoner scrambled eggs.

    A reason to wake up early on the weekends in c/memes@lemmy.world

    Shhh as long as mom stays asleep she can't know we're watching cartoons!

    (Mom knows. Mom just wants to sleep in).

    Fast forward 30 years and my kids are fine launching cartoons on Jellyfin but apparently wake up completely deaf, because my alarm clock all summer has been the 10-tone Teen Titans: Go interstitial at max volume.

    Oh well. Could be worse shows. It is DC Comics longest-running animated show, after all.

    And my kids circadian rhythm is on point. It's almost the exact same time every day...when the night begins to shine.

    I will never unsee the penis on my sons $0.50 sandal (lemmy.zip)
     

    I left the house yesterday to take my kids to a water park hotel...but when we were on our way, I noticed he had water shoes on, and I know we didn't pack any shoes.

    Fortunately we were able to find these flip-flops at a store on the way. They were only $1, but meh...he likes video games and he needs something besides swim shoes.

    But my wife noticed there's a healthbar that looks mildly-penis and now I can't I see it.

    In light of recent events, I'm really starting to wonder about Reddit, /u/MaxwellHill, and Aaron... (lemmy.zip)

    So, maybe crazy conspiracy guy. Probably, actually.

    But l mean...

    • /u/maxwelhill is still silent since Ghisilaine Maxwells arrest. This was a long term power user and has been around pretty much since the beginning. At the time it went silent, the account was #8 in total karma.

    • Aaron Swartz was a founder of reddit and died by "suicide" in 2013. Lots of controversy around all events leading up to it. He was hanged, just like Jeff Epstein. Perhaps he knew too much?

    • Reddit was scarily protective of /r/theDonald.

    • Spez was a mod of jailbait subs. And was quite reluctant to do anything about them, too.

    • I still contend that monetizing API was a strategic move to get long term tech-savvy users (the proponents of open source, choice in software...largely left-wing users) off the site...they wanted us gone.

    • I still contend that Ron Paul's 2008 reddit fame was a trial run for utilizing social media to mobilize young white men towards conservativism.

    Idk. Maybe I'm just being really paranoid, but man...I'm really looking at reddit, Spez, and the past decade or so in a different light.
