another car opinion is that they shouldn't have touch screens

[residentevildash-moved]

if you need to do something with your car (ex: adjust the AC) you should be able to do it based off of touch and minimal sight; without knobs and buttons for tactile orientation youre ... staring at an ipad while driving? awesome trend we've started

what the fuck happened

[turbozarky]

This was peak driver ergonomics. 3 Knobs for HVAC. How hot, How Hard, and where do you want it? RAdio is just below windshield level. Headlight switch is big and easily reached by feel alone. Buttons are large, and each one textured differently. You could operate everything without taking your eyes off the road.

[autisticexpression]

Touch buttons on anything are a plague on humanity. There's no advantage, it's just tech bros fellating themselves. It just makes it way easier to press a button by accident.

Millennials: mostly broke

Cost of childcare: highest it’s ever been

Also millennials: saw every financially struggling parent get very helpfully told that they should not have had kids

It’s almost like having kids is pretty much a bad idea if you want them or not in this economy

This tweet is so bizarre bc it implies that your own children are the only beings on the planet that you can & should connect with, which is like…how you end up with super toxic family dynamics.

And apparently, the alternative of a) learning to find peace with yourself and enjoy your own company and b) making friends is like. Not an option for how to fill your time lol.

(Also, yes we’ll keep being sexy and having fun. Thank u for noticing.)

[theonlyspiral]

Biological family is not the only worthwhile family to cultivate. Just because you don’t have kids doesn’t mean you can’t use your experience and insight. Younger friends, volunteering, hell, even going on the fucking internet. Never mind the fact that many people ended up with a delayed adolescence due to illness or being queer, or having to grow up rough. You can share good times with friends, lovers, even god forbid, sometimes strangers. This man lives in a world where the life cycle is (Child -> Sexy Fun -> Raise Kids -> Die) God what utter bollocks.

the best thing about pacific rim is that it's a film about the power of love in all its forms and how humanity's ability to work together and communicate with each other is our greatest strength, but it's also a film about a giant robot beating the shit out of a sea monster with a laser cannon, a boat, knuckledusters made from cargo containers and a chainsaw sword to the sexiest bass lines ever used in cinema

the best part of all of this is non mob psycho viewers forming a blood feud with reigen over this without knowing who he is or what he has done

[shigayokagayama]

on the offchance there are people who have never seen mob psycho reading this post i feel like i need to clarify that this is a character who:

- is a conman pretending to be a psychic using a real psychic (the real psychic is 14) (he pays him 300 yen (about $2.60) for his services)

- has literally one adult friend. his other two are a middle schooler and an evil ghost that fucking hates him

- is extremely skilled in a number of fields (photo editing, massage therapy) but chooses to pretend to be a psychic because it’s more interesting

- once single-handedly de radicalized an entire wing of a terrorist organization by telling them they were acting like children and needed to get real jobs

- has never lost rock paper scissors

- got drunk off of literally lemonade with no alcohol in it

- got exposed as a fake psychic on national television and was subsequently cancelled on twitter

- reacted to a terrorist organization of people with literal superpowers taking over the city by saying they should call the police and not moving to action until he learned that fire insurance wouldn’t cover the damage to his office

- got trapped in a purgatory dimension for 28 days because he couldn’t suck up his pride and admit to his newly hired employee that he had no idea how to get out

- made a website

- it looked like this

[elkian]

I think it’s worth elaborating

that his services start in like the $15 range so yes he’s underpaying the tween but he’s not exactly making bank

a significant amount of the ‘ghosts’ he’s called upon for involve 0 ghosts but lots superstitious people with random problems

he solves those problems with the aforementioned massage and photoshop skills

basically the man has weaponized his ADHD

‘con man’ is technically accurate but he missed the ‘take the money and run’ part so he just bullshits being psychic while still fixing people’s problems

in the manga it’s strongly implied that the tween knew he was lying about being psychic the whole time

also he has beaten multiple Actual Psychic enemies by remembering that fists exist
