I dunno, I highly doubt anything involving Elon was consentual.

Gonna have to disagree with you on Popeyes. They’re generally good for the first few months they’re open, the nosedive. The fries are good, the chicken is dry and extremely thin for what you pay.

No.

Existence had grown exponentially more expensive in my lifetime, well outpacing what a 401k or pension will realistically ever be able to achieve. At best, it might buy me 5-10 years after I am physically unable to work; if I mentally decline too soon due to age (quite likely in my family), I will die in poverty.

That isn’t even touching on the possibility of a habitable climate or war, and assumes the survival of the current economic system.

A US news echo chamber at the whims of whatever they think will appease trump is going to be horrifying…

Try Linux in a VM (virtual machine) for a while.

• Low hassle compared to dual booting,
• no risk of Microsoft randomly doing something to windows that breaks your Linux install.
• low/No system downtime if you decide you don’t like one distro or another and want to switch,
• no loss of game data for your son (I’ve lost so many saves because of games putting them in nonsensical places in windows; why is appdata still the default for minecraft saves!?)

Nah, I’ve always used metal bowls.

I should clarify: i hope they try to go for people who shoot back.

I’d much rather they just leave people the fuck alone.

May they accidentally raid a Mob-owned business.

Cincinnati is a strange and wonderful place.

In a paycheck or two! Till then, S22u

A pixel to load grapheneOS on.

Other than that, I need to save as much of my money as humanly possible.

Florida has had Do Not Travel advisories for at least a year for anyone trans (and frankly anyone LGBTQ+ in general).

Was that one of the protests where they sprayed manure on buildings? Or stopped trash pickup? Or a different one? The French are glorious in their ability to protest.

Florida is going to be absolutely overwhelmed with MAGA during that time-frame.

Why would they lower the age of consent for people who (in their eyes) don’t have rights to begin with?

People as things, that’s where it starts.

IT support everywhere sigh in satisfaction

Those peppers look raw, onions a bit too, but otherwise an alright sandwich to me.

I hear the next republican candidate won with 98% of the vote.

I would hedge my bets for now. Alternative scenario: The Saudis throw another party for Trump, make some business deals in exchange for reigning in Israel. The House of Al Saud of course doesn’t care about Palestinians but their people do and a party and some business is a low price to pay to be celebrated by your subjects.

Blech… this honestly seems more likely to me now, plus it can be used as propaganda to “prove” that he did something about genocide, to keep people voting red…

It’s less about the means of communication now as it is an absolute state of surveillance to act upon before things are even in motion.
