  Nationalization is the opposite of privatization, it’s how the US’s bureaucratic state was really built, we should absolutely do this and right now is the time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident Rates⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Japan introduced brake lights that increase intensity based on how hard the driver was braking. 20+ years ago. They tested it in the US and drivers found it to be “confusing.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The New York Times Just Published Some Bizarre Race Science About Asian Women⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been the punchline of a dark joke for years.

  You gotta get those little hands building the little toys.

  We make the dark joke because we know it’s true, but we can collectively point at a tech company and say it’s their fault, and still enjoy the fruits of their labor at prices we can afford.

  Globalism - hyperglobal capitalism - is all about externalizing the negativities and internalizing the positives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We're deep into the baggy era mate⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah i grew up in the 90s. The skinny jean crazy didn’t land with me. I wore baggy carpenters until they died, then the widest bootcut I could find.

  Now I am in heaven, my favorite aesthetic is everywhere, baggy jeans, shirt sleeves over long sleeves, hell yes let’s skate

  Thankfully lots of us can’t read and are blissfully unaware at this late hour.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On trees...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Mushrooms are the great undertaker, the great decomposer. The Langoliers. They are just waiting to eat you, and they’re happy to share their fruits in the meantime. They’re fattening you up. They can wait.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A 19-year old cis lesbian woman was beaten unconscious and robbed after she tried to use the women's restroom at a McDonald's in Carpentersville, Illinois⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The state will fail to accomplish anything meaningful in prosecution - a bad deal or bungled case. Plus there’s the notoriety the case is already generating. She’ll need to file a civil suit as well, and she’ll need someone making sure everything is OK on her end (the attacker doesn’t counter-sue for instance).

  I’ve been the victim of hate crime, you think you’re gonna get a justice boner and fight it to the core, but in reality the simplest/safest answer for the victim is to shut up and make it disappear. You’re already traumatized, fighting is confusing and painful.

  I am super torn here because pre-back-surgery me looks at these and says “the NERVE of these fuckers” and post-back-surgery me is like “Well that WOULD be nice yes”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Italian style pizza⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “made with real cheese” so it can be 1% real cheese and 99% petrochemicals and the line works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly this. People use the word way too casually these days, but addiction literally means something that’s out of your control despite specific efforts to control it.

  One of those efforts is usually moderation though, so when you see someone questioning or struggling with moderation in a true addiction, you know that there’s hope for them to get clean. They are “contemplative.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘It’s real y’all’: People are sharing their tariff receipts, and my wallet is not ready for what’s coming⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It also takes the manpower. Americans really like sitting in cushy offices whenever possible, or being in service roles in general. Manufacturing is like, hard, and not fun, and you can’t scroll on Insta while you’re making shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨7 for me⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This, but if I jerk off before bed and don’t shower, I throw on a fresh pair of boxers and endure it to make sure my sheets aren’t all cum-streaked.

  I made accounts for my board of directors, two of them got “permanently suspended” because of “violating the TOS” before they even logged in. Had to delete and recreate them. So it’s not perfect, but for free, I do manage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I kissed the dirt and I liked it⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They thought they were fucking advancing humanity up there. They probably thought the photos would be published above the fold in the NYT coverage about the day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft pulls MS365 Business Premium from nonprofits⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Google offers workspace for free to nonprofits, Including device management. No one, I know in nonprofits even fucks with Microsoft because they’re so ridiculous. Now it’ll be even less people.

  Google now has the market cornered because they aren’t as greedy.

  There’s a whole cottage industry dedicated to convincing people their kitchen and baths need to be remodeled to the studs every 10/15 years, windows need replacing, new siding, all sorts of crazy shit, just get yourself a home equity line, it adds to the value after all! But that just means you’re in more debt to own what you already owned. Home equity lines of credit can be super useful but people use them like lotto tickets.

  And even then it’s dependent on the availability of the 4G network or whatever. They’re currently sunsetting 2G and 3G networks, that means a lot of old school devices have to be upgraded or cut off, upgrades come with new contracts.
