I find this “retribution” thing very quaint…
“Retribution” for being held to the same standards as the rest of us. “Retribution” for being punished for violating the rules we’re all under. “Retribution” for being called to account for acting like awful people.
There is nothing that has been done to them that does not stem from their own, poor behavior—a completely self-fixable concern.
I use ChatGPT and Copilot as search engines, particularly for programming concepts or technical documentation. The way I figure, since these AI companies are scraping the internet to train these models, it’s incredibly likely that they’ve picked up some bit of information that Google and DDG won’t surface because SEO.
Would be a welcome October Surprise…
WTAF is wrong with these people?
Like, dude, all cool if this is the fetish that you beat off to every night—not that I really need to know this.
But, if not, holy shit, seek help…

The first time I encountered this, it scared the shit out of me. Only by rationally eliminating possibilities was I able to calmly dig in, learn about the Epley Maneuver, and get some relief.
It still pops up on occasion, but a couple of rounds of the Maneuver and I’m usually back to normal.
Came to add Buckaroo Banzai myself. How that didn’t make the list beggars belief…
If it took more than one shot, you weren’t using. Jakobs!
Fascinating. I guess I’d be curious to know which brands those are.
And, for what it’s worth, I think I’d take mustard or cardboard over coconut oil. 😅
Let’s end the hypocrisy of blaming illegal immigrants every societal ill—while benefitting from their cheap and compliant labor—and staying silent about the complicity of employers’ role in the whole process. Raid workplaces. Deport illegal immigrants if that makes you feel better. But, absolutely imprison those business owners for aiding and abetting.
