There is no ethical consumption under Capitalism. Just do the best you can with what’s available to you to reduce suffering and heirarchy. All of this is a fight fought on many, many fronts, some of them mental.

Man, this is just going to encourage people to just watch it on YouTube. I know I will.

Finno-Urgic Chad: “haha hey guys watch this”

You, my friend, would probably enjoy the magazine ‘AdBusters.’ I have been a subscriber since college, 20 years now.

you know what the worst part about the creeping nature of murderous, paranoid fascism is? the hypocrisy!

Okay I know we’re all pretty deep into the nerdweb here, but let’s not lose the thread of reality here. ABC still pulls close to 5 million individual viewers every night, JUST on broadcast and cable rebroadcast. That ain’t fuckin nothing; TV is still an important and influential medium.

Spez got invited to talk to Congress about radicalism on social media. I bet that has something to do with it. Steve “Bugeyes” Huffman will not turn down an opportunity to help Trump out.

I’m confident they were just looking for a reason after Colbert. Seth Meyers better use his last few weeks before he gets pinched to come up with a contingency plan, cus this is a fucking crackdown.

I expected nothing and yet I’m still let down.

Same mindset that complains about how ridiculous traffic is from the pilot’s seat of a car, in traffic.

Girl, you are traffic.

Boomers and older Gen-Xers seem to truly have no concept of how many school shootings that Millennials and Zoomers have lived through.

The response to those was the same every time, and the words they used were similar to those Kirk himself used — “a little random violence is the price we pay for the freedom to own guns.”

Since Uvalde, I have just been straight with it and just refer to it as the Second Amendment God. The Second Amendment God occasionally gets hungry, and must be fed with blood. That’s what we as Americans want. This has happened a thousand times over in 25 years, and each time, we all cast a silent vote that this is what we want.

The Second Amendment God exists because we want Him to exist.

Nah, as someone who gave an honest, college try at making use of OneDrive, I maintain its fate vis a vie the rusty hook.

“Windows meme makers, can you go five seconds without revealing your appalling lack of technical curiosity?”

Windows Meme Makers: “The C drive! … How long was that?”

A paycheck is a paycheck. Lots of us exchange our ego for daily bread — we have a club and everything. We meet every day after work at your local bar.

Oh yeah. Don’t you guys also do murder scene remediation?

“Computer, fix this code and don’t make mistakes.”

It’s a real dumb idea but I’ll be honest, I think all of us should have expected that when Chrome switched to an engine that doesn’t allow for ad blockers.

I’m with the rest of the commenters on other threads — I’ll just switch to PostmarketOS and make Linux work for me. Very little of what I do on a phone really requires “apps.”

White People: “guns are for everyone! That’s why there is a second amendment. SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.”

Black Panthers: "oh ok carries unloaded guns’

White People: “wait actually now there are limits”

Honestly, doing this for would be such a hilarious operational vulnerability that I think it would be like a dinner bell ringing to th international spy community lol.

If they release files with only Republican names blocked out, all it’ll take is a single congressperson to read the full list of names that appear in the documents out loud during a speech and into the public record — then, Internet sleuths and journalists will be able to piece together names from details, they always do.

Driving is honestly very stimulating for me. I have AuDHD and it is one of the few times I feel calm because I can actively engage all of my senses. Something about keeping an awareness in your head of what’s around you and your car really keeps me occupied.
