My only hope at this point is that, by firing most of NOAA, they somehow miss or are otherwise unprepared for a freak hurricane that blows right through DC while congress is in session and Trump is doing a photo op while signing a new bullshit order.
What the hell are we supposed to do? It’s a BIG goddamn country, and most of us are barely making it from week to week. None of us want to lose our housing, our jobs, or our lives, on the chance that we might remove 47 from power. And if we manage to do so, who the hell is gonna take his place? JD Vance? Some other fascist? Who’s honestly going to step up and lead this country into prosperity again?
The second best thing is remember that tolerance of intolerance breeds intolerance.
So, because I voted for Harris, and have been voting against this sort of shit all my life here in Texas, I deserve to burn?
Just the 31% that voted for him.
The first campaign of Dungeons and Daddies is fantastic. It’s one I’ve come back to a couple of times.
Gah, everything. Interrupting my shows. Ruining the vibe before they even start. Destroying the time I’d use to contemplate the ending.
Nowadays, ads are just… everywhere. None of them are relevant because I don’t have the disposable income to buy superfluous things. They obstruct the view of the short-form videos I watch, they interrupt them, they clutter up webpages and make them load much slower than they should, they get in the way of my feed and the content I actually want to see.
They’re a nuisance, one that no online company seeks to minimize or control. It’s always just money money money. How can we make more money? I know, let’s make our pages and services so inconvenient to use that our users can’t help but accidentally click on every ad they see, or they pay us through the nose to get an experience that’s worse than what we used to offer for free.
I’ll do you one better: completely free.
Check out Ashes: 2063. It started life as a mod for Doom, but is now completely standalone and has more in common with the Metro games than anything else at this point. PC only, but both games and their expansions are 100% free and worth every minute of your time.
I truly wish I shared your optimism. As it stands, I’d be fine with the US not devolving into fascism.
Baby steps are better than none.
That makes one of us. I feel like every single company I’ve ever worked for only ever treats people like machines and they’ve all become exceedingly efficient at replacing them when they’ve broken down.
The manager likely thinks it’s him, but it’s actually all the workers that do the work.
The guns in my closet say otherwise.
Tell that to every other company while you’re at it.
I hope to God they are. Not that I’m a believer, I just hate Ted Cruz.
Worse, paying a subscription so you don’t drive your truck.
I’ve been trying to tell myself that it’ll be a good day before going into work every day. It’s made a big difference in my mood.
For every asshole billionaire there’s at least one millionaire you’ve never heard of, giving money away and never trying to have too much to themselves. At least, I’d like to believe that.
I’m convinced they’re actively trying to bring about the end of the world at this point.
