I guess my previous comment was unclear. There is PLENTY of anti-trump content on my feed that is definitely not getting suppressed. I just searched “pro choice”, “vice president musk”, “antifa”, “black lives matter”, “trans rights”, “felon musk”, “trump sucks”, “trump felonies”, and “vote blue” and found plenty of results for all of them.

I’ve certainly had no dearth of anti-Trump content rolling through my feed. Sounds to me like people who don’t use TikTok are just making stuff up that fits their worldview.

Uhhh I’m using TikTok with no VPN in the US and still get plenty of anti-Trump, pro-LGBT, left-leaning content. 🤷

TikTok definitely used the news hype to signal to Donald Trump that they will work with him — by giving him “credit” for making the app available again (even though he wasn’t president yet and didn’t do anything). It’s all propaganda from both the US and China.

I beat the checkered deck on orange stakes when playing Balatro last week! :)

That was in reply to your comment about mods. Mods who have to delete illegal or rule breaking content — because the server owner’s private information is attached to the server details. Meaning if they don’t take action to remove content calling for violence they could be held responsible.

So the one who posted that comment was saying it’s easy to spew any nonsense you want and then act upset when the mods remove it if you’re not willing to put your money where your mouth is and host your own instance where you can say whatever you want because you’re your own mod

I’ve been working on beating Prometheus in Hades 2 with 32 Fear. I’ve already taken Chronos down at that difficulty multiple times but the surface route is absolutely brutal on me – I keep getting stuck at Strife.

I’m generally too busy trying to get my wife to take a nap, since she watches the toddler all day while I’m working and that kid can wear out anyone but when I get the chance, I do love a good nap.

My autistic toddler who hasn’t said ‘Dada’ in months said it while she was fighting sleep during a visit with my wife to her friend’s house. While I couldn’t be there to hear it, I still cried when my wife told me.

Mine is going pretty good. After a month in my new position at work I’m finally getting the credentials/access I need to actually get started onboarding. You might say a month is a long time to be doing nothing and getting paid for it, but I’ve been having a blast.

No idea why they worded the article that way. The person going to prison is the person who leaked the documents and was also the admin of the discord server they leaked it to.

They’re just butthurt that they’re not being allowed to spew their hot takes all over this community as a captive audience that isn’t interested.

If I’m not paid for ALL the time I am required to be on-site and available to my employer (including for security purposes), I’m finding another job asap. Don’t give your time away without being compensated for it.

Thanks for the tips! I’m very grateful for how cannabis interacts with my brain chemistry. I am predispositioned to stress induced anxiety and panic attacks and consuming pretty much any flower that isn’t absolute garbage will at the very least “take the edge off” and the act of preparing and smoking the flower provides an excellent opportunity for relaxation and bringing the stress levels down before even taking the effects of the weed itself into account. I’ll definitely have to start looking out for good Humulene and CBG heavy strains.

You are fairly spot on with your assessment of me. It may all be gobbledygook and placebo but I’ve found that bud that is heavy in the Caryophyllene is very effective at helping reduce pain and inflammation when I’m dealing with a flare up of an as yet undiagnosed gastrointestinal issue, allowing me to function under conditions that would otherwise leave me huddled in agony on the toilet all day. The limonene heavy strains are great for jogging me out of depression induced apathy, and yeah the myrcene does great knocking me out when I’m having trouble staying asleep.

For me it’s rarely about the hard numbers and more about the lineage of the strains, the reputation of the growers, and the reviews of other cannabis users. I like to cross reference resources like Wikileaks, Leafly, Weedmaps, and local reviews to narrow in on strains that help me.

If I walk into a store and can talk to the budtender about what I’m looking for in a product and what I’m using it to treat and they recommend a strain or two I already know works for me, I’m much more likely to listen to their other recommendations I haven’t tried than those of someone who doesn’t. Over just the last few months of being a licensed patient in Oklahoma, I’ve found 3 different dispensaries I’ll go to for recommendations because they’ve been consistently on point.

And at all 3 of those independent locations, they tell me not to look at the THC but at the terpene profiles. I find that the presence of Caryophyllene and Limonene and Myrcene are all great indicators that a particular strain will be good for my needs.

I never said that Google is on the verge of collapse, nor did I defend them. I merely stated that Google is a corporation, driven by profit, and expecting Google to act in the interest of anything but their own profits is a fool’s fantasy. Quit putting words in people’s mouths. It’s unbecoming of anyone that wants to have a legitimate discussion and it’s just toxic.

You know they wouldn’t get paid if nobody watched the ads. And if they didn’t get paid they wouldn’t have any reason to pay to run the site. Explaining that a corporation will not run a site like YouTube for free (which it wouldn’t even be, it costs a lot of money to run) if they weren’t getting paid. Quit attacking other users simply for pointing out facts. It’s beneath you (I think)
