Honestly, I just started typing and kinda went into autopilot mode. After I hit Post, I read it and was genuinely surprised that it was coherent.

I was gonna say that things turned to shit 25 years ago, but that's a really anglo-centric view. Also, I wasn't ready to face that more than half my life has been spent watching my country erode itself and the rest of the world. I keep trying to push buttons to see if I can invoke change, but it seems like these controls I was given when I turned 18 might not be connected to anything.
I'm not sure what many of those words are, but I feel like the people you're talking about are not well-versed, so I'll give it a shot!
First of all, of course it makes sense dje to peak consumption! Without something to mitigate the rebound from artificial valleys created by such large peaks, we're left without any sort of buffer or safety net. Imagine a world without dje: we'd just have consumption rampantly peaking all over the place without any stop-gaps??? What's gonna stop the bleed once we're hemorrhaging the resources necessary for dje??? Anything other than the status-quo of dje to peak consumption is gonna fall directly on your head and I don't think you're prepared to deal with the repercussions.
Why shouldn't I defend the Department of the Exterior? You people are always so cool with everything the Department of the Interior does, but I feel like I never hear ANYTHING at all about the Department of the Exterior! If it weren't for all the noise you're making, I'd almost think that the Department of the Exterior doesn't even exist. Also, do you have any idea how difficult it is to create long runs of Direct Current??? Of course Direct Current operators deserve preferential loans: those bastards are always quick on the ball with delivering the correct type of power to my outlet whenever I plug in my phone. The way you choose to ignore them seems like you'd like to pretend that Direct Current operators don't even exist and that your outlets switch from AC to DC by some form of magic!
You people are always harping on civil rights, but it's like you refuse to acknowledge that Citizens United made corporations people. People without arms... Without legs... Without tummies... These corporations are barely lucky enough to even have a boot for us to lick, but they need something to cover their foot. Because companies are a giant foot with a mouth. And without arms or hands to clean themselves, it's our duty, as fellow citizens to these corporations, to take care of them and lick their boots clean. Do they step on us sometimes? Sure, but you have to be forgiving of the corporations, which are giant screaming foots with mouths.
(If this needs an “/s” or someone thinks they took away actual knowledge from this, then I give up on society. I’ll just go live under a rock and hope that it collapses on my head.)
They've also referred to themselves as the Wachowski siblings and the Wachowski sisters
That's a great religion, I'll help.
Now that's how you do a cognitive dissonance!
Also, Sen. Josh Hawley should be excluded from terrestrial oxygen.
Nazi likes being the villain. Got it.

Someone needs to fire the writing staff, the latest 10 seasons of Reality: The Show have really sucked.
Is the battery connected while you're trying to power it on? If so, see if it'll run on the power supply without a battery.
If that doesn't help, check if there's a tape already in the deck. If so, see if you can manually remove it. A number of old magnetic media cams start to get a bit sticky/stuck and trying to move the reel or head at startup can cause them to overdraw.
If first two don't work, consider finding a proper replacement battery. If replacing the battery doesn't work, then you're almost definitely gonna need to crack it and look at replacing caps.
This goes in order of easiest/cheapest solution to most difficult, but I think capacitors are gonna be most likely on a piece of kit that old. But all the extra troubleshooting should help you narrow down possibilities before pop your new baby open and find that replacing caps still doesn't help.
I'd hate to possibly find out otherwise, but I'd guess that pedophiles are a minority. Imagine it's their religion
Hey, it's me again. I realized my comment is poorly written and can be interpreted in horrific ways. I meant to imagine that these pedophiles are part of some pedophile religion that conflicts with Christian values and then treat them with the same impunity we've treated many other religions. But then I remembered how we treat religions in this country and realized that would be absolutely ushered in by the current climate. I hate this comment now. I'm downvoting myself. Fuck me and my ideas.
I once saw a supervisor use Google sheets to do a simple calculation. Could have opened the windows calculator, could have typed it into Google, could have done lots of things. But no, they created a new Google Sheet, performed one arithmetic equation, and then closed the browser.
I was so amused by this that I decided to program a 10-key calculator complete with memory recall in Google Sheets using Google Apps Script. I've made some wild Sheets over the years and have abused spreadsheets into things they're not, but that's my favorite, most useless Sheet ever. Whenever I show it to people, their first reaction is, "yeah, that's a calculator, that's a pretty simple tool." But then when they realize that I wrote actual code to assign values to add then clear checkboxes and then store all these values, they look at me with genuine concern.
I know this isn't the kind of delusional you're talking about, but just wanted to share.

And then they organically broke out into song about how life's full of last-minute things and that doesn't mean there's a conspiracy. Complete with perfect harmonies, all the Jews and Muslims had to excuse themselves on account of all the ham.
