Cool. Fuck Microsoft

We should make trump ride a bike. Up one of those busy streets with a painted lane and double parked cars.

I will continue not giving Microsoft money. Fuck them.

When the legal system neither delivers justice not makes people whole after being harmed, people start getting ideas. Like taking up plumbing

This reminds me of that time when Fox news tried to say that poor people don’t have it bad because 82% of them have a microwave.

Turns out if you’re a conservative shitbag you can just say stuff and for some reason you’re neither shunned from society nor beaten and left for dead!

I wouldn’t do it based on join time. Age doesn’t always map to quality, and it might encourage people to make sleeper accounts to age up.

I would do it based on a graph of trust.

Let’s say you’re user 0. You trust yourself. You can then invite or vouch for a user. If they misbehave, it should reflect badly on you. If they post good content, you should share some of the glory. If one of those users invites someone, the good and bad flow upstream.

People no one has vouched for have very little power. You can filter them out with a toggle.

You’d be able to see the web of behavior. If someone keeps inviting or endorsing assholes, then they’re a problem.

Endorsing is different than upvote. You can upvote whatever, but endorsing is saying you trust this person and you’re willing to put your own reputation and access on the line.

Something like that.

Conservatives are famously kind of stupid. They’re bad at empathy and critical analysis.

There are people responsible for climate change. We should feed them to the fires. Perhaps it will appease the gods.

The later you start learning a language, the harder it is. High school is so late it’s sad.

Maybe they don’t want to air it live because that’ll make it harder to sanewash

Oh yeah. I throw anything in there. I sincerely enjoy it, in addition to it being cheap. But I used to buy a lot of other stuff too.

I’d buy a lot more food if my job paid me more. Instead, rice and beans baby. Maybe a splurge on champagne every time a key republican dies, but that’s it.

I would watch a movie where some people organized and liberated the camp. Come morning, there’s no prisoners and all the ICE goons are hanging upside down by their legs.

So one hopes that the voting public is learning a hard—or I should say watery—lesson about how important good government is

Most of them won’t learn anything. If they were capable of learning, they’ve had ample time to do so.

There’s a few strands of toxic monogamy that are pretty common. Really jealous, controlling, and with poor emotional regulation.

I’m lucky my current partner is very chill about these things. I’m still good friends with two previous partners and it’s never been an issue. We’ve all hung out together.

It’s a shame there isn’t more language education in the US. We had one class on a foreign language starting in sixth grade, which is pretty late.

Most things here are mono lingual. I visited Montreal and I feel like if I was there for a few months, my rudimentary French would really develop. Unfortunately, the one time I tried to speak to someone there who didn’t speak English, it didn’t go super well. She was patient, but we weren’t really understanding each other. All my French is reading and writing, so I have an incredibly bad accent.

I don’t cook well but I don’t mind a partner helping. It’s easy to delegate “cut this onion” or “wash these dishes”. Maybe if I had higher food standards it would be a problem.

I was looking at the costs of raising a child the other day and I don’t know how anyone does it. My job pays garbage with trash health insurance.

I’m just so mad at the management class with their high pay and not doing any actual work. My boss seems fine - I think he knows this is bullshit and goes a little out of his way to make it easier for me. But everyone above him? If I saw them drowning I’d have to think a long time before throwing a life vest.

For any question about “why is this extra bad in the United States?”, racism is probably a big factor. There’s a book “Dying of Whiteness” that’s pretty horrifying. Some people would literally rather suffer and die personally than let black people have nice things.

It’s not the only factor, but it’s a big one.

We shouldn’t let the heritage foundation just sit around malignantly growing.
