Musk won of course…

As usual billionaires buy get their way. Too many people that aren’t brainwashed “conservatives” on there for his liking so he took it over and now look at where we are…

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to look into that.

And for the cost, they get to retire with nice government pensions and better healthcare than any of their voters will ever see.

They get way more than just that if they are good little piggies for the ownership class. They get “advisory” positions and board membership that give massive salaries for doing fuck-all as they already did their “job” in government. Totes not a bribe of course, because technicallyyyyy…

I happened to freeze all my credit in the same weekend I switched car insurance so I don’t know who is to blame (my bet is on GEICO) but starting Monday I’ve been getting a bunch of spam calls and texts…

Such scumbags… If it’s the credit agencies they caused the problem for me to be there and are now profiting off the “solution” and if it’s GEICO it’s probably worse since I’m already fucking paying them, but no they need more.

I decided not to pursue my interest in geology because I didn’t want to be stuck with the only employment options being oil companies.

It sucks that we need to give up so much even though they keep destroying and pillaging.

There is literally no such thing as too much money in our society.

To be honest I just see people commenting here and there that xyz game didn’t work for them and they have to jump through a bunch of hoops for what does work that I just write Linux off for now.

That and I tend to like to check out early access games (cough star citizen cough) so I just dont want to limit myself just to give Mi€ro$oft the finger.

Also, (see early access comment) I’m kind of impatient so even though I’m pretty capable, the last thing I want to do is have to be an IT guy for my PC every time something doesn’t work lol windows is pretty good in that respect.

Pretty much the only thing I use my PC for is gaming so it really sucks that I can’t just dump them for Linux…

I don’t want some games. I don’t want to have something I’ve been hyped about be out of reach for God knows how long just because Linux support is crap as the market share is so low, but man do i hate Microsoft…

Hell I’m still on my 3xl lol I was considering getting a new one soon

I’m at work so I can’t dig for something better, but this was posted yesterday so it was a quick pull from my browser history.

Edit: don’t be dumb guys, don’t downvote them for simply asking for proof of a claim I made without evidence lol

Every concept of hell and the details on what earns you a spot there I have always translated to “hell on earth.”

As in: the things someone would do to earn them a spot in hell creates hell on earth. There is no hell other than the hell people create for us here.

I mean that’s exactly where we are headed in the US.

Project2025 in part wants to institute laws against blasphemy… They quite literally want to make the united states a theocracy, absolutely no fucking exaggeration here. It’s literally what they want.

I have a strange type of social anxiety that keeps me from playing multiplayer games online with anyone other than people I know in person because I feel like I’m going to group with one of these weirdos and then get stuck with them following me around or messaging me constantly lol

I know it’s an irrational fear, but my brain is dumb.

It’s always worth trying, but this is something I don’t see us changing. And although it’s helpful to have a prewritten letter to send, when they get 363826283636 identical messages it makes it that much easier to ignore because “they’re just bots.” I edited the message to add my own feelings about government overreach and corporations reaction to censor everything to protect themselves.

It think it became “mandatory” when we removed pensions from the equation and tied “everyones” retirement savings to The Market™©® so we need companies to be considerate of their stock price as it’s often our retirement that depends on it.

Nothing like a loaded gun put to our future foreheads to make us go along with some more bullshit…

I believe it’s a human thing. I’ve heard the term “hedonistic treadmill” where what you once wanted becomes “meaningless” once you have it and now you’re looking to the next thing to obtain.

The ultra wealthy wanted money, but now they “won” capitalism and need more because it literally is never enough. This goes for you and me too though, if we became billionaires we’d be looking for “what’s next?”
