I felt this way at one time when I was younger. Now I don’t give a shit what people want to do with their own bodies.

On the internet, everyone is American.

There’s a decent amount of guilty pleasure pop music out there that I like now before I hated it. Tons of Katy Perry songs. Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus. Stronger by Kelly Clarkson.

Of artists I normally like White Dress by Lana Del Rey went from “I can’t listen to this” to one of my favs of hers. Found a Job and Slippery People by Talking Heads are the same way.

It seems like alternatively you could cross the border to some other country and not have to do this anymore. Slovakia gets all the breaks.

I just learned that the Time Cube is no more. (lemmy.world)

Some of you may remember this absolute diamond of insanity that was the “4-Day Time Cube.” This was the go-to example of the internet as a universal amplifier for communication - for both the sane and insane alilke. It was there from nearly the start of the world-wide web, back in the 1990’s. Alas, it ceased to be some...

You can defeat Jesus on technicalities. This is why it’s always important to have a lawyer write your holy books.

Thanks for that link. I’ve never heard of that site and it’s really informative.

When I was truly destitute, I ran a computer without a case. It was literally in a cardboard box on the floor.

Laughs in DeRolph.

ETA: If you’re not old like me or not tuned in to Ohio politics. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeRolph_v._State

TL;DR: In the late 90s the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that the way Ohio funds its schools is unconstitutional. The Legislature effectively ignored the decision and we still have basically the same problems.

Jimmy Wales is a shitbag, but that just means I don’t give Wikipedia any money.

I am barely aware of TV Tropes.

I don’t know if it’s good yet, but I think one of the Lemmy devs is trying to make a federated Wikipedia. I honestly don’t see the need for it, but it’s his time and if he wants to work on it, great. I wish him well.

He’s a Randroid.

Personal philosophy section.

Wales has previously referred to himself as an Objectivist, referring to the philosophy of writer Ayn Rand

Everyone here is welcome to disagree with my assertion that he’s a shitty human being, but that is my read of the situation.

I don’t boycott Wikipedia. I just don’t give them any money. I don’t give lots of websites any money. I will give them money when he’s no longer a part of the board.

Wikipedia is a great resource started by a terrible person. I recommend people use it.

The Bible says in The Bible that The Bible is true.

Can’t argue with that logic.
