The swamp.

Based on how many corps bought out by private equity get stripped for parts and destroyed, I’d say the outcome is relatively similar.

I would prefer the deaths didn’t enrich the oligarchs more, but I am actively trying to pull back my spend on all corporate stuff because of this exact horseshit. Lots of others are, too. Maybe others think I am just pissing in the wind, but at this point I give zero fucks what others think and vote with my wallet until I can vote for people who will regulate this shit like a functioning government is supposed to instead of this reality tv garbage.

Oh well.

I’m a Toys-R-Us kid and I think maybe we didn’t need all that fucking plastic.

We will survive without Grand Slams.

It’s time to put the corporations back on the back burner of Americana.

This reality tv governance makes us and everyone else less safe.

Am I supposed to feel sorry for a bootlicker who stayed behind to screw their colleagues?

Who is this lament for?

I understand, and don’t have any of those tools to hand.

It sounds like this is not a watch for you.

Doesn’t a little solvent and some gentle brushing usually clear this issue up?

The benefits for simple access through simple mechanisms, for me, is worth this bit of work.

But everyone clearly has different requirements. 🤷‍♂️

Then you will no longer have the representation you deserve as an American. We fought a war about this already and we kicked the asses of the people that think their money, rather than the consent of the governed, gives them the right to control the citizenry.

Clear that this is not the view held by the rest of the community, though. Time for me to head out.

If anyone knows of a really high standard (really, just actual journalism) news sub - no click bait, highly factual low editorial submissions - I would be interested. Don’t want to waste my life with speculative garbage like this posing as news.

Either this is beneath the standards for news for this community or it’s time for me to unsub.

Wasn’t there already a story today about a recall for an AI teddybear that will talk about sex and starting fires if you converse with it for more than a few minutes?

Who wants this fucking garbage?

Stop buying things. Goddamn.

This experience works perfectly for me. I have no need of whatever junk the latest consortium of megacorps has come up with.

🤷‍♂️

If everyone cared about that people then the GOP wouldn’t have won in the first place.

Let’s be accurate.

Difference is the labels in the latter case are accurate by all accounts.

Really doubt Mamdani is a jihadist, but we see a Republican arrested for child porn at least quarterly. 🤷‍♂️

Now do Palestinians.

Thing is, I am starting to think this has been true for the entirety of recorded history. You know we solved scarcity when we started having time to write shit down.

All of our recorded story as a species is just us hurting each other until we figure that out. The moral arc of history is indeed long.

American rancher? Fuck you!

Trump fucks his supporters yet again.

Sure, just know that this feedback is coming from people who have probably walked the same path and are trying to save you some pain. Best of luck, but I have found people like that are not engaging in good faith.

Hope this guy gets the help he is clearly crying out for.

The linked example specifically wasn’t due to overcrowding.
