Of course its fucking Google.

He’s too afraid to ask her. I would be too.

This, but since these were expensive, lots of people bought cheaper, off-brand ones book-by-book at grocery stores over a period of 30+ weeks. We had a set growing up that my mother would pick up at whatever store we were going to, IDK, I was little.

Seeing as how I’d have list the last things keeping me from killing myself, I wouldn’t.

Oh fuck no. For my entire life I’ve resented having to be alive. You try being a suicidally inclined 7 year old and see how you like it. The fact that it’s impossible to ask someone if they want to be born is enough for me to never want to have kids, always had been. Forcing existence and cognizance on a human being is unspeakably fucking cruel.

How do you fight the Borg?

They’re also wasteful pollution machines when they’re run, and for no practical purpose. They’re just toys to these people.

Reddit’s API fuckery. That’s it, that’s the whole reason. Fuck spez.

Cool, glad for y’all.

Hey, now that you’ve taken care of that, we’re having a little fascism problem here in America. We were wondering if you could, ya’know, return that little favor we did for ya in the 1940s?

Ha, I wish.

Good riddance, vertical videos are cancer, short form obliterates attention spans, and their algorithm is engineered specifically to addict people, especially kids.

Now to ban all the rest of them. Let’s start with Facebook. Twitter is already killing itself but could stand to be “helped” off the cliff.

World News is ban-happy, screw em.

John Oliver did an episode about jury nullification, IIRC. And it’s funny how when you’re on jury duty, they’re not allowed to tell you about jury nullification, but they can’t stop you from discussing or doing it when you’re making your deciding. IMO they should be required to tell you, but as usual, those in power fear anyone outside the system having power of their own.

This is America, so unfortunately gun crime is just something there’s no fix for. 🤷

Eh, gendered nouns are just an old holdover. At least English (usually) uses words to improve specificity. For example, “Pick up my medicine” as opposed to “pick up medicine.” It seems redundant to some until suddenly you need to specify after the fact.

The more precise the language the fewer chances of miscommunication. A perfect language would be precise and unambiguous without deliberate effort (as opposed to laziness, slang, shorthand, etc.) which is probably completely impossible to craft, much less about.

And people get mad when I point out that every single human is an idiot to some degree about lots of topics.

Many Indigenous Americans called the continent “turtle Island” or similar in their native languages. We really missed the chance to have a cool local name, rather than the name of some random map maker who’d never even been here.

Also we could have named South America “Hydra” instead, because I mean have you seen the Amazon river? That thing’s ridiculous.

The same thing I do every day - hide and try really hard not to kill myself.

Windows: you’ll eat this slop even if we have to carve a hole in your throat and force it through.

They’re a religion, of course they’re assholes.

This replicator burns turkey just like dad used to.
