  *capitalism for you.

  the tariffs are part of the overall system which is designed to exploit folks a few rich owners can profit.

  I use it all the time in rural first responder work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This has happened to me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  it’s why some places, like mine, give raises in July but “open enrollment” is on Sept/Oct and premiums go up in Jan. You “feel” it less.

  Hint: if your raise is less than inflation and premium increases, you got a pay cut not a raise.

  unrelated but kinda related - I’m a firefighter. Often seen folks driving toward the scene lights like moths. Can be sketchy sometimes. I suspect it’s the collimated leds just piercing into the brains of the already distracted drivers.

  this is supported to be a shitpost not hegelpost

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And I so fully support banning calls for violence. in my example (anecdotally) there was no violence just uncomfortable rhetoric. (also he was a mod of news on .world at the time - not just his instance but maybe that’s how it works here? not fully sure.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A) I never advocated violence. I support a prohibition on such actions.

  B) I did not arbitrarily label anyone anything. The subjects themselves did it. I merely used the labels they give themselves in my commentary about the kinds of people they are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  oh did not know abt those bans. he got me when I posted intolerance of nazis because I was “dehumanizing” them. but yeah. as a dev good! administration was just too much for him.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  as a dev sure. as an admin he had a recent kerfuffle on news, etc, with bans and involvement in some drama around them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grok's Hate Speech Meltdown Exposes AI's Hidden Bias Crisis⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  it’s not the fault or ownership of the AI; but the corporation/org running it. We need to not create obfuscation when referring to this stuff.

  Nazis at grok ( its owner, etc ) create and run it. They are the problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks Mr. Clean!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  my take is that if I ever have to remove the door, that section gets a frame and becomes art. :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks Mr. Clean!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  funny thing is I still have the kids heights written on the door, in my wife’s handwriting. She died 14 years ago. Kids were 9,11,12 at the time. She was 41. I’ll prob never remove it.
