Stop the liberal anti wallcandy propaganda. It feels so good to eat the wall candy. It tastes exactly like cotton candy but it's available in my walls and my mattress

Honestly, just a regular black cat. I can't because of terrible allergies

I'm considering the same for my bipolar. Each time I spiral into depression is worse and worse for me and everyone around me

It is an oven with the convection setting turned on by default. So it's like having an oven but for a regular person instead of the design made for 1960s suburban moms cooking for 10, like the "regular" oven

Golden age of gaming is now, though. We get so many bangers basically for free it's insane

First off, Google has made agressive deals with phone manufacturers to ship spyware with their phones by default, and some of the stuff can only get taken out by rooting/jailbreaking the phone. By doing so, they acquired nearly 100% of the app store market share, and then used it to make "useful features" such as integrity checks that are tied to the Play Services app (which is an always on spyware background app).
The end result is, even if you manage to root your phone and install a custom ROM (which is not always available to every model), a bunch of apps will refuse to work properly because you fail the Google Play fingerprinting steps and are assumed to be a security vulnerability. If I'm not mistaken there's also some shady stuff with certificates, too

Google already does precisely that with their "open source" mobile OS. People underestimate how easily these guys can ruin stuff

How isn't it possible? Just don't give them phones, it's not that complicated

They are so cool. I won't even get to wear one to my wedding so I look like Don Draper

Pipes, the smoking kind. Not to the point where it once was, people smoking everywhere, but I would like to be able to sip my pipe on a Sunday stroll without it being some statement of style
