  • Infantino is president of FIFA. FIFA is legendarily corrupt. Infantino defrauded FIFA and used money to buy himself shit. Infantino enjoys the corruption and attention from being at the top. That’s just how FIFA rolls.

    At worst Trump stole the medal and trophy from a guy who doesn’t give a shit. Infantino changed the rules to put his name on the trophy, that’s all he cares about. He’s cut from the same cloth as Trump.

    At least Trump didn’t take anything from people who matter. The players weren’t screwed by Trump. FIFA screws the players and Trump stole bullshit from FIFA. Fuck them both for making the sport about themselves.

    I hate that autocorrect defaults to such common words making it impossible to type anything without manually typing in “rare” shit. Or when spell checks just don’t know enough words. I shouldn’t have to add materiel to the dictionary in an age where modern browsers require 36 threads and 3gb to check my email.




  • Using master is stupid. Is your branch in charge of others? Is it more skilled than your other branches? Software engineering has too many crusty dorks that stick to their paradigms like it’s their religion. Acting like it’s their heritage to use outdated terms but also it doesn’t matter so that’s why they’ll keep using it.








  • They’re not really here illegally though. Just in a technical sense. It’s only a law.

    But who gives a fuck about paper? Americans demand undocumented workers should get to stay. We demand they work our businesses. We vote for / bribe politicians to carve out our own “legality.”

    The people brutally raiding immigrants have stated that they will leave farms alone. You have paper that says they’re here illegally, but our entire system says they’re allowed to be here.



  • F1 has like 4 gifted drivers and 16 heavily polished aristocrats. Losing KMag sucks.

    People like Russell, Max, and Lando had daddies that bought them 20,000 hours of karting before they turned 10. I don’t get why we talk about them as being goats, as being natural talents. They’re literally the most manufactured talent you can buy. There’s nothing natural about how those kids came up.

    But at the end of the day, all the rich / psycho dads tried, and only a few kids made it, so at least they’re sorta the best? The best of a shit crop but still the best.






  • Consider analogous countries.

    A country with a big Christian cross as it’s flag. Christian symbology in their emblems, money, seals, etc. The national anthem is about Christians reclaiming their holy land. “A country where Christians can feel safe.”

    “Hello welcome to Bobland, a country founded by Steves. Steve is on our flag and money and stamps and official seals… and our songs are about Steve. The major religion is Steve. Our politics are mostly about Steve.”

    “Why are Steves committing genocide?”

    “How dare you conflate our actions with Steve! This is Bobland! If you don’t accept technicalities you’re basically Hitler.”
