Through incompetence, negligence, and willful malice, Trump and the GOP have killed more Americans with COVID than were lost in America's ten most costly wars—COMBINED. KILLING AMERICANS IS WHAT THE GOP DOES BEST.

It's terrible when you realize the death rate from COVID was worse in the US than basically the entire developed world due directly to being incompetent.

They also successfully killed a huge swath of their voters by turning masks and vaccines into a political issue.

1/This morning I have come on social media to see a deluge of videos documenting the militarized police in this, supposedly, "free" country with the freedom of speech enshrined in the Constitution, brutalizing peaceful protesters simply because the government doesn't like their speech.

This makes my fucking blood boil! As if funding a #genocide was not bad enough. Now, the government has deemed anyone who doesn't wholeheartedly support it to be a #Nazi.

2/I'm honestly, ashamed to have to call myself an American citizen this morning. I thought our country was better than this. Now, I am coming to learn the reason for that is the propagandized "History" we are all taught in school. We have a sordid [not all that distant, either] past of being on the wrong side. Maybe the can turn this place around.

Hostage negotiations? You're joking right? Your inability to see this for what it is means you're willfully ignorant. If that's not the case, I just have to assume you're stupid.

@RememberUsAlways

Get the fuck out of here. Debating with someone as delusional as you is impossible, so go find another to jerk off with. There can be no substantive discussion with someone who doesn't acknowledge objective reality. I know why you don't, though. It would be too hard for you to come to grips with the reality that you're in support of a genocide. Lol

@RememberUsAlways Israel? Yeah your ethnostate theocracy sucks ass. It especially sucks for the Palestinian people who have to live in it.

I've never been, and I will never go. I'd prefer not to support your economy with my money, but unfortunately, Joe Biden has other plans.

@RememberUsAlways

Again, without any facts. Just willful ignorance (or stupidity, not sure which one in your case yet) and that's it.

I can't help but notice how none of you are willing to attach your name to your support of genocide. That's because you know you're on the wrong side of history. When the books are written, I'll be on the good side. So, go ahead, take off the mask. I know you won't. You're a coward.

@RememberUsAlways 🤣

Coming out with the "war is brutal" bullshit. I love it. How many more excuses for genocide can you come up with?

92% of the Palestinians your genocidal country has murdered were civilians. Fuck off.

@benhaube@twit.social avatar

@RememberUsAlways

Again, you do not live in a democracy. Israel is an ethnostate and a theocracy. When history books are written your country will be held to account. Just as Nazi Germany was. Because what your country is doing is not any different.

I honestly feel bad for you. You're likely so propagandized by the religious zealots who run your country which is a contributing factor for your support for their imperialism. But you're getting blocked because despite the propaganda you're still a genuinely awful person.

I hope that in my lifetime we abolish billionaires. No one individual needs that amount of money. Comments like this just affirm that fact. Think about how much better life would be if the ridiculous amount of wealth hoarded by the 0.001% were distributed to society instead of sitting around doing nothing.

I'm very concerned about the rise of anti-science on the right. How can we move forward as a society if a large group of people aren't living in reality?

@Mrfunkedude I think we do as much fact-checking as we possibly can. The issue is the audience of these troglodytes never see it, or if they do their brains are so filled with rot that they either can't comprehend it or are just trained to immediately discount it.

I keep seeing conservatives complaining that used to be good, but has "gone woke." Like, GTA and all Rockstar games haven't always made fun of conservatives and Republicans. I swear, it's like they are totally incapable of thinking critically.

I just went into my display settings on Android and on the display size option I ticked it up one spot above default. I've got to say I highly recommend it. I'm having a harder time reading without my glasses, so the extra size of the UI really helps.

So.

To reduce social anxiety I keep a little set of digital flash cards to help me memorize names. It worked great. Recently I got a book with photos of all the staff at both buildings so I memorized them all. (I like memorizing things)

All week I've been saying hello to people Now some of them think I'm an extrovert.

😨 No. I just wanted to check that I had the correct pronunciation.

No wonder so many stories have ideas that names are magical. This is too much power and I do not want it.

@futurebird I feel your pain. I am terrible at remembering new people's names, and it makes me feel so bad.

Lauren Boebert has been outspoken about her disapproval of drag queens, but that didn’t stop the Colorado congresswoman from spending hundreds of campaign dollars at a bar that hosts drag shows. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/boebert-campaign-money-bar-drag-shows-1234854745/

@dancinyogi Just one in the living room and one in the bedroom, and to be fair I don't even remember the last time we turned on the TV in the bedroom.

The Pixel Buds Pro are definitely worth the upgrade. I've been using mine for over a year, and they are the best Pixel Buds yet. It's also amazing to me how they are still being updated with new features over a year later. The only complaint I have is that they don't stay as tight in your years as the old Pixel Buds with the fin. They require periodic adjustments.

@jeffjarvis

I would say the primary benefit is the battery life. It is more than double the A-Series and older models. You're also getting a ton of extra features like ANC, Transparency Mode, and EQ settings.

If you want I can DM you a promo code to get 40% off from the Google Store. It is good until 10/22 and I'm not going to use it. It drops the price to $120 for the Pro.

Smartspacer is a supercharged version of Google's At a Glance widget.

Google's At a Glance widget can already do a lot of things like show you timer and stopwatch info, flashlight reminders, and more, but it has limited support for showing info from other apps. It can show the status from ridesharing apps like Uber, doorbell alerts from Nest, safety check countdowns from Personal Safety, fitness tracking info from Adidas Running and Strava ... but not much else.

(1/4)

@MishaalRahman I would definitely be interested in testing it.
