I mean, Donald Trump literally sold the Resolute Desk for ad space to Goya, and that hasn’t stopped his reelection bid any more than his recorded participation in treason.

I’m not sure our so-called democracy is accomplishing much.

Yup, I’m setting up a dual boot when my thumb-drive arrives.

Actually really excited to get back to computing the way it was in 2010. :)

Nice!

I just want something that’s similar to Windows, regularly updated, easy to use, and comes with proton already installed.

Yup, I couldn’t have imagined the extent of the enshittification.

I’m glad I can turn back the clock a little on my PC at least.

This is the way.

All of the major newspapers and media outlets are owned by the billionaire class, and it’s been that way for over a decade.

It’s time to stop clutching your pearls every time your media company of choice does something in service to the billionaire class and stop giving them your clicks.

Yup.

Remember the headlines about the massive pollution drop that occurred in Spring 2020 after most workplaces went remote?

Cars and planes are the problem. Unfortunately, cars and planes make the billionaires a lot of money, so there won’t be any meaningful change to our transportation systems.

The proper thing to do is to call out this BS and let the NYT know that this is bullshit.

Use your time as you like. It’s yours to waste. Your only real weapon is depriving them of your consumption.

The closest you can get to unbiased is the AP or international sources.

Totally.

There’s no way they didn’t get phone calls about this.

I mean, you’re not wrong.

The sad thing about the 99% of voters who always vote partisan is that their feelings on any given issue are largely due to political convenience.

I’m a big fan of the improvised weapon feat.

I hope she got him in the throat.

Milo is 1000% a good boi.

I love it.

Scramble it all. I’d do the same if I hadn’t deleted mine a year ago.

There’s a set of Henry’s armor hanging out at the Met as well. I was pleasantly surprised to bump into it en route to see the gaudy-as-hell frame they put on Washington Crossing the Delaware.

Since we can’t meet Henry himself, meeting one of his suits of armor is the next best thing. It wasn’t nearly as fat as the paintings would suggest.

You’re not wrong.

It’s the Internet.

People downvote a lot of stuff.

Like keep in mind I’m in a state that has not only criminalized abortion but is defunding all planned parenthoods now.

Bummer.

2/3 of the states will follow in another year. That’s what happens when we elect people no matter how badly they do their jobs.

What can I say?

Stop voting for capitalists, man. You have to step off the Democratic and Republican train if you want meaningful change.

FlashMobOfOne, 3 days ago

Fixing it means de-radicalising the republican party by making them lose elections and re-structure away from fascism.

You have 40 years of history to definitively prove to yourself that voting Democrats fixes nothing.

But sure.

Go for it. Maybe in another 40 years the country will be so terribly broken that none of them wwill want it anymore.

And the person you want me to vote for has sat on his ass for the last four years watching the cost of groceries double and triple, gasoling costs pass the $3 mark permanently even in the poorest parts of the country, housing costs nearly doubled, and written blank checks for other countries’ wars, even if said country was openly committing genocide.

Oh, and what did he do when Roe was repealed? He used it to fundraise. That’s it.

Your candidate is a fascist, and does not care about your wage slavery.

FlashMobOfOne, 3 days ago

People keep saying this, and it’s inevitably followed by a state-level example.

The problem with that is 2/3 of the states are controlled by fascists, and I don’t think 2/3 of the states should have to go without a living wage and health care.

Do you?

The Federal Government should be doing more than writing blank checks for other countries’ wars.

For now.

Come November the only good we’re going to be capable of is that which we do with our own two hands.

Sorry for being so doom and gloom on a Saturday morning.

I just look at our two presidential candidates and it breaks my heart to know that nothing is going to stop the incoming validation of fascism.
