Western Imperialism these days is the US, Israel, and Russia

This is what happens when Putin kills the caterer.

I can’t use Linux because I can’t get the medication I need to read through the documentation. I am literally unable to focus on pages of details on my own and it’s crippling. If any issues come up, like trying to get an nVidia card to work, I can’t get through the help documents.

Linux is unhelpful by being so open. As much as folks don’t like rails on their operating system, it helps some of us get work done. I want to like Linux and have a laptop with Mint but it’s wireless card needs drivers and finding relief is non-existent.

You need new friends

Private enclaves? Looks like building shaped pinatas full of everything my community needs to survive all stuck behind the decisions of one person.

A nugget ice machine. Nuggets ice is the perfect chewing ice - not too hard it will crack teeth, even consistency unlike crushed ice, firm like tight packed snow. It’s like chewing on frosty heaven.

But it’s absurdly expensive for what little it does. At least a couple hundred dollars for a counter top ice maker that does nothing but make perfect ice.

Authoritarians don’t care about what the hoi polloi think.

We had one cat and didn’t expect a second but it was a conversation that we had started and expected that maybe the first cat was alone and sad when we left for work (in the long ago era of 2013, a pre pandemic life). Given that the shelter was locally well respected we took a look and, yeah, it’s risky but that’s the nature of impulse purchases!

A cat. In line at the pet store for kitty litter and saw a literal pile of kittens near the check out. Turns out that the local shelter was having an adoption day and my partner found a black cat that immediately nuzzled into her shoulder and the little kitten motor purred so loud it sounded like snoring. They bonded in that moment and have been best friends for the last 14 years.

Is this so the loans secured with X stock can’t be called in, forcing Elon to sell the collateral to pay back the loan?

Sure seems like a bullshit business move to retain control of Tesla.

Heaven forbid Asia has any eggs.

Perhaps instead of finding and breaking fresh news they can add fresh perspectives to existing news stories? God knows folks need more than just the info blasted at them - they need to be reminded that there are other ways of interpreting events than what they are given.

This wasn’t something people voted for. Assholes took advantage of an election to cause as much chaos as possible in a nation that was apparently involved in every country imaginable and vital to many. It’s hard to constantly be told America is a shit bag when most of us are unable to make any changes and voted for completely opposite people.

“Long lost, hidden partition”

It’s very good.

They’re the same, just different scales of treachery.

It’s a pile of stones, previously unturned.

At first he was cool and would wash people’s cars and picking up animal poop from yards. But it turns out he wasn’t helpful. He was gathering materials and was stealing polluted dirt, piles of shit, and anything else he could find into grotesque golems that roam town and do his bidding. It’s unbearable to go to the market for some bread and milk only to discover the waste elemental made of animated shit and cigarette butts is there to get groceries for him. It’s a fucking nightmare and it makes me want to wear anti magic pendants to fuck up his errands - but that leaves behind unanimated filth that has to be moved by us mundanes. It’s so one sided it’s like tyranny.

The revolution will have a subscription.

So many passive leaders has caused the people to elect a reactionary one. The lack of foresight leaders show is part of why the dumbest voters back the most unstable people.
