06:13 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:11  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
07:11 < aestetix> I think I know how to solve the middle east crisis
07:11 < aestetix> Make it a 0 state solution, and make Dolemite the dictator of the entire region
07:13 <@Dolemite> Kick everybody out and make it an amusement park with no fast passes available.  Everybody has equal access, nobody has exclusive access.
07:14 < aestetix> see I knew it was a good plan
07:18 <@Mirage> I've said for years that the only way that there's going to be peace in the middle east for any lasting time is to nuke the place and turn it all into glass.  They've been at war w/ each other for some reason or another or ~4k yrs, that's about all they seem to know about how to deal with each other.
07:19 <@Dolemite> Yep, all arguing over how their version of God granted them rights to the land
07:20 < Evilpig> but if you kick everyone out then there is only you so why bother with the fast pass removal?
07:20 < aestetix> Dolemite: will your amusement park have bouncy castles and snow cones?
07:21 <@Dolemite> No.  It will be boring as shit to discourage people from coming.
07:21 < aestetix> damn

07:21 < aestetix> What about a camel petting zoo
07:21 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: Yeah, I've only gotten the first episode so far
07:21 < Evilpig> the only camels to be pet are toes
07:22 <@Dolemite> ++
07:24 <@Dolemite> Of course, there are millions of people every year who make the pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia to walk in a circle around a giant stone cube, so my boring as fuck amusement park may still be crowded all the time
07:25 <@Dolemite> Just like millions of people go visit the wailing wall in Jerusalem
07:25 < aestetix> I thought you were joking but wow it's true
07:25 <@Dolemite> You know what I like to visit?   Places with frozen fruity drinks and water slides.
07:25 <@Dolemite> aestetix: Had you never heard of the Kaaba?
07:26 < aestetix> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mukaab
07:26 < aestetix> I thought you meant this
07:26 < PigBot> Mukaab - Wikipedia (at en.wikipedia.org) https://tinyurl.com/268txoqb
07:26 <@Dolemite> That's not the "real" thing, it's a planned development
07:26 <@Dolemite> I was referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaaba
07:26 < PigBot> Kaaba - Wikipedia (at en.wikipedia.org) https://tinyurl.com/ya8fulvk
07:26 < aestetix> ah ok
07:27 < Evilpig> chucky has taken a wild turn.  I don't know what these writers were smoking, but get them more of it
07:27 < aestetix> that's not quite a cube. What I posted is
07:28 < aestetix> the Mukaab reminds me of the borg
07:47 <@Dolemite> Booyah.   RCL reported earnings this morning.   Beat eps estimates by 33%.  Shares up nearly $5/share in pre-market trading.
07:48 <@Dolemite> I only have 120 shares, but still, that's $600 gain overnight.
07:52 < Evilpig> curious to see what's going to happen to norvo-nordisk or whatever their name is.  they just got wegovy/ozempic approved for reducing heart disease risk, but simultaneously are getting looked at by congress for their ridiculous pricing
07:54 <@Dolemite> yep, I saw that on the news last night
07:54 <@Dolemite> $300/month in their native country, but $1300/month in US
07:56 < Evilpig> did you get your paperwork sent off?
07:56 <@Dolemite> I have to make a copy of my insurance card, but that's all that I have left
07:56 <@Mirage> I bet at least a little bit of that is the cost of marketing here in the states since most other countries are sane and disallow drug companies to advertise...at least on TV.
08:03 < Evilpig> booooooo   	
08:03 < Evilpig> Dead.Boy.Detectives.2024.S01E03.German.DL.Atmos.1080p.NF.WEB.H264-ZeroTwo
08:03 < Evilpig> nice!  chucky is playing william shatner's you're gonna die over the credits
08:06 <@Dolemite> Bah.  Mine is also grabbing all these German ones
08:06 < Evilpig> that's the only ones out right now. :-/
08:06 < Evilpig> sonarr says multilanguage on that but I didn't nab one to test
08:08 <@Dolemite> I still haven't finished Spiderwick Chronicles, anyway, so it's not like I was going to jump in on that today
08:09 < Evilpig> I finished that up, it was nice
08:09 < Evilpig> I've got the latest episode of the conners on now
08:10 <@Dolemite> yeah that's in my Continue Watching list, along with The Big Door Prize, Walker, The Girls on the Bus, Amazing Race, and Star Trek Discovery
08:10 <@Dagmar> Don't worry.  Lobbyists will get around to bribing-er-funding those politians soon.  THey won't starve.
08:11 < Evilpig> I've got those first three episodes of the big door prize too
08:11 <@Dagmar> I have AppleTV+
08:11 <@Dagmar> That having been said, they seem to have no fuckin clue how to encode video
08:12 < Evilpig> they encode everything for dolbyvision
08:12 < Evilpig> apple LOVES dolbyvision
08:12 <@Dagmar> Well, it certainly doesn't seem to like anything but Apple devices, maybe
08:12 <@Dagmar> They have the _worst_ streaming client
09:11 < Evilpig> Dolemite: the english ones are appearing now
09:11 < Evilpig> Dead.Boy.Detectives.S01E04.The.Case.of.the.Lighthouse.Leapers.1080p.NF.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-NTb
10:31 <@Dagmar> DBD is suprisingly funny in places
11:11 <@Mirage> Reading between the lines while listening to SCOTUS on the Immunity issue, it seems to me that the justices are making arguments that can be summed up with, "how can we let Trump slide while not leaving a loophole for Biden or some other Democrat"
11:16 <@Mirage> WTF... Who?   Brett K just said, "Looking back people have decided that Johnson pardoning Nixon was really the right thing to do and a wise decision" (paraphrased)
11:28 -!- Netsplit *.net <-> *.split quits: brimstone, nihil-, aestetix, driz, ZachGibbens, @Dagmar, @opticron, @xray, @Shadow404
11:32 -!- Netsplit over, joins: @Shadow404, brimstone, aestetix, @xray, @Dagmar, @opticron, ZachGibbens, driz, nihil-
11:43 <@Mirage> Adjourned until May 9th.   awesome...
11:43 <@Dagmar> Well, they have to give Trump time to limber up so he can bend over and kiss his privilege goodbye
11:45 < Evilpig> they have to take luxary vacations for the next month in order for the trump-clan to sway their opinions
11:49 <@opticron> *be bribed with luxury vacations
12:04 <@Dagmar> Anyway, Nixon _knew_ he fucked up.
12:04 <@Dagmar> Trump still believes he should do whatever the fuck he wants and is trying to get back into office.
12:04 <@Dagmar> Nixon not only knew he fucked up, he actually owned up to it and resigned his position.
12:05 <@Dagmar> That's pretty much the only reason pardoning him was considered acceptable.
12:05 <@Dagmar> No one's interests would have really been served by engaging in a lengthy investigation and prosecution.
12:06 <@Dagmar> Trump has gotten up to some much criminal shit he's having _scheduling issues_ with the various trials he is now facing.
12:51 <@Dolemite> aestetix: OMG  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2IFZgBQUUc
12:51 < PigBot> Cops Took Her Kids and She Made Things WAY Worse - YouTube (at www.youtube.com) https://tinyurl.com/2agz9twm
12:53 < Evilpig> Dolemite: you know i'm gonna be dealing with something very similar on june 6th. ugh
12:54 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: I hope it's this dramatic
12:54 < Evilpig> she's unhinged enough
12:55 <@Dolemite> I could see a similar thing from Crystal.   Around 13 minutes in this bitch asks the cops if she can grab her weed, which is illegal in Wisconsin.
13:02 < Evilpig> Dolemite: both of my siblings asked about the possibility of paying for assault charges in VA
15:16 <@Mirage> Aparently the cats aren't Ministry fans.  I turned up the volume and they left the room.
15:28 < Evilpig> lol
15:28 < Evilpig> what song was it?
16:40 <@Dagmar> YOU WILL NOT KILL
16:54 <@Mirage> Evilpig: "Just one Fix"
16:55 <@Mirage> Or maybe it was "TV II".  Was listening to the whole album
16:58 <@Mirage> Hrm, "Fallout 4 Next Gen" patch came out today.
16:59 <@Mirage> Blah... "The 2024-04-25 Fallout 4 update (1.10.980 and later) has broken F4SE and the rest of the native code modding scene similarly to Skyrim's 'Anniversary Edition' patch."
17:03 < Evilpig> like that song too
17:03 < Evilpig> i'm testing a little annoyance...
17:03 < Evilpig> https://t.ly/ChGnG
17:04 < PigBot> Mother of the year (at t.ly) 
17:04 < Evilpig> going to send a postcard to sabrina that she likely won't be given and going to put this shortened url on the card
17:04 < Evilpig> I have a feeling that her mother will not be able to resist going to it
17:11 <@Mirage> You just love kicking hornet nests
17:11 < Evilpig> it's a talent
19:34 < Synx_> i have the worst fucking luck with dr's, I got a referral to a specialist 3 weeks ago, took a week just to find out the dr's office never sent the referral, then had to wait 2 weeks to schedule a consult. I showed up for the consult today and got told sorry we are not in-network. AHHHHHHHH
19:36 < Evilpig> well shit.  why didn't they check that first?
19:36 < Evilpig> can you still see them out of network just with a different deductible?
20:07 <@Mirage> And do the out of network prices include the lube for when they bend you over?
20:11 < Evilpig> doctors don't use lube
20:23 <@Dagmar> I love how insurance not wanting to pay just automatically equates to "you can't get treatment" with a lot of places
20:24 <@Dagmar> I always use my "Extra Dick" voice when I explain to them at the urgent care place, "I thought I'd just try paying with money today."
20:24 <@Mirage> That's because most people can't/won't pay the massively inflated prices
20:25 <@Dagmar> The urgent care is usually like $120-150 a visit
20:25 <@Dagmar> Most of the time if I really felt like it I could just find some place on the dork webs to order black market antibiotics and just skip the middleman
20:27 <@Dagmar> I have to go for something like maybe once a year.  I'm not really going to give a damn about even $200
20:27 <@Dagmar> I save that by being a lazy punk who usually eats Cup O' Noodles for lunch
20:44 <@Dagmar> "Guess who's stronger because they've been eating proper daily meals!"
20:45 <@Dagmar> That was epic
