  Simpler even than that. It would mean someone gets to tell them no.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clean butt⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Soon. Soon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually plan to buy the latest print encyclopedia I can find. Just in case. Fuck them trying to kill everything good on the internet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FL wants more child labor⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Seconded. Do not buy our products. Build your militaries, sad to say. Save your holidays for better nations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to Enter the US With Your Digital Privacy Intact⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Peer pressure to conform, toxic masculinity, homophobia, dirty jokes and failure to grasp dark humor, society failing to train boys to mature into men, propaganda news, obsession with team sports, lack of good education, lack of mentorship, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to Enter the US With Your Digital Privacy Intact⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I work blue collar. I know some.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We had that. Now the racists are in charge, they’re burning it all down and proppjng pathetically incompetent white conservatives. The experiment already ran for centuries in this country, and clearly demonstrated the idiocy of racism. But bigots never get sick of trying it again. Racist businesses will fail, yet again. What about that are you not understanding?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because race is irrelevant. Bigotry is not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because for bigots, racism trumps profits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  DEI ensured that qualified minorities could not legally be passed over by racists in favor of UNqualified whites, as clearly you are. I would never offer you a job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It was. Explain why I should be confident that the money will still be there IF I get to retire?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I already pulled my retirement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft has pulled back on over a gigawatt of planned data center capacity, suggesting that they do not think there is a growth future in generative AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  VR/AR

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not real... *for now*⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, that’s certainly one way to reduce our screen time. I’ve got shelves of neglected books that need attention.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sun God⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn, that’s a great idea. I gotta go back and finish that series.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You Can’t Post Your Way Out of Fascism | Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s see that package

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patch this Bish!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d like to reengineer the mosquito to draw blood samples, identify viruses, then create and spread vaccinations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patch this Bish!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Could we also do something about the dark triad traits?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patch this Bish!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would absolutely go for 6 fingers. Preferably an additional thumb. Not to mention an additional joint in each. Let’s go base 12!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patch this Bish!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  These days it ain’t looking like a bunch of us ought to live forever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking pigeons⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They did not start this way. We domesticated them. Then we rejected them. They’re still figuring out how to be wild again. All those pigeons you see are the descendants of formerly beloved pets that we threw outside without a care around 150 years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking pigeons⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For millennia they were beloved pets and messengers. We bred independence out of them and doted upon them. Then we invented the telephone and cast them all out into the wild en masse. It’s amazing they’ve survived this well.

  They are as we made them, and as we rejected them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BACK IT UP⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people. Found that one out from an old high school crush from FL. She looks like leather now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Saudi executes more than 100 foreigners in 2024: AFP tally⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Been there once. Never set foot on land. Close enough. No regrets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Watch. It.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not young anymore. I will no longer dedicate significant time to any TV show. 26 episode series are creatively ideal. I already have hundreds of books, records, and films to finish, and too little time even for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, wasn’t gonna.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You might want to ask Ajit Pai.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Magic Mineral⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably because symptoms of mesothelioma take decades to develop, and I only encountered that stuff around a few holiday seasons in my earliest memories.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Magic Mineral⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To prove it was safe. They knew it wasn’t, so they changed public opinion by marketing.

  “Of course it’s safe! Look how safe it is! It’s fun for the whole family! What do you think we are, monsters?”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Magic Mineral⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Aw fuck l, I knew I remembered that shit from childhood.
