I think the Of Loathing games can be pacifist

Seems like a good time to start planning out that backup address, since you’re housed and safe right now (I assume.) Hope your luck is better than mine, but much of this information I gained from the experience of resorting to backup-backup-backup plans. Good place to start is figuring out the cheapest place you could get a monthly lease in the areas you are familiar with. One of my friends just happened to have that info handy when I almost became homeless a few years ago, and being able to very quickly act on that info ended up saving me a few rough weeks.

It isn’t a “claim that you need multiple addresses.” Think critically about the problem. A person who has MH diagnosis or addiction diagnosis, and is also at risk of de-banking due to address instability needs to have a legal address they can prove access to. Proving you reside at an address is how you stop the process of de-banking. For people who are housing unstable, it is wise to have backup plans including two addresses.

it is pretty wild dude but I think some of the people resorting to sane washing are burned out by all the cable news / huff post / raw story kayfabe
they see somebody pointing at a threat and instead of add that to their mental load, they’d rather shuffle it aside as panic bait or whatever
i kinda get it
my hope is that if their banks actually threaten them with this they remember “oh yeah, i’ve heard of this, it has something to do with my address getting challenged” and then maybe they can figure it out in time? then they don’t have to deal with getting labelled like this and losing services.

I’m completely anti-crypto but that’s not the topic.
This is a warning about an angle of attack against people. I’m not advocating a product. My suggestions are to make sure you have trustworthy, legal access to multiple addresses should your housing become unstable, and to have diversified access to real banking services through both traditional banks and credit unions.

It’s pretty specific to the CU. Some CUs seem to follow “other banks de-banked you, so…” and some just don’t seem to notice or care about anything.

Sorry where did I disguise my anti-regime feelings, here? This is an anti-regime post. I am not crazy. I am your enemy.

correct

This is absolutely a current weapon against trans people. If you know trans people who need an address, get them an address ASAP.

Indeed, part of protecting yourself is diversifying where you keep your money (even if you don’t have a lot), and part of that answer is credit unions. Don’t just assume in institution is okay just because they are a CU though, plenty of scum CUs.

Pure propaganda. “Make the people who don’t believe in AI Genies sound like bigots, say they have slurs.”
You can tell when boomer americans try to make up something “the internet is doing” because it always sounds like some 1900s huckster shit they saw on TV between paint chip snacks

Spending money on prostitutes isn’t a bad habit, those are people providing you with a service. The bible is a bad habit. Nothing good in there. If you need help getting away from Christian influences, my DMs are open.

No. Pure terror forever. If the US continues down this road, nothing but violence, death, starvation and terror until it is all done. No “US.” Fire. Death.

There is no room here for your credulity. No, polls are not accurate. No, the Walmart tax dodge charity foundation is not “reputable.”

i’m reporting the post because it is from a blatant disinfo house that spreads rhetoric about “critical race theory” and other obvious dogwhistles
it is not a coincidence that AI is being pushed so hard by conservative racists

- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 month ago:
CMU is one of the most right-wing, corpo controlled schools in the US colonies (especially influenced by Palantir), so it is interesting they are admitting the “agent” AI concept is fake.
The writing in this article is ridiculously ignorant and credulous though, you can tell the writer doesn’t understand “AI”/ML and is still trying to pretend AI is real. For example, only a complete idiot, specifically the complete idiot Thomas Claburn, would repeat the following propaganda after the numbers they cite.
Neubig said he expects agents will become more capable in time but added that even imperfect agents can be useful, at least in the context of coding agents – a partial code suggestion can be filled out and improved.

MSFT is about as evil and shitty as a corpo can get. Helps that their products are terrible and anti-user. Anyway I hope everyone who gets laid off repents and uses their knowledge to harm the corpo.
