Yeah. I’ve been saying for years private schools should not be allowed. We’re all in this together.

Haha get fucked DoorDash. I’ll pick up my own food before using them.

I don’t really like prequels. A lot of the tension goes away when you know the ending. Getting a concrete answer to a mystery is also less rewarding than leaving it for people to mull over. But I don’t think there even was any mystery left here.

Oh good https://nohello.net/en/ is back up.

Cool. Those vehicles are too big.

I got a friend to play Path of Exile with me once. They hadn’t really played a lot of video games before. When they leveled up and it did all the sparkly lights they were like “oooh wow!!”

I was like oh, I guess I’m numb to that thrill since I’ve seen it a million times. But the sparkle reward was fresh for them and got their attention.

I remember playing some shitty free MMOs in my youth. Kill 12 foobars, kill 10 bazbots. Being legitimately excited when they overlapped so I could do more than one at the same time. Some part of the brain just gets excited seeing numbers go up and progress bars fill.

Reducing meat consumption is generally a win all around, and easier than going directly to zero.

That’s what I’ve been doing.

Most of the meat I end up eating is at a party or event someone else hosted.

Microsoft should be split up, at the very least. I’d also like to see the leadership stripped of their wealth and the company handed over to the workers.

Capitalism is fundamentally unfair. Some asshole who doesn’t even work keeps the benefits of the work. Fuck that.

Anyone who seriously suggests privatization should be barred from working in government. They should be fully investigated for conflicts of interest, and if any are found nailed to the fucking wall. They’re thieves stealing from the public.

There are many other sources of entertainment. Your local library has books, and probably other media too.

Just ban private jets.

There are so many things we could just stop doing, but they make rich assholes unhappy. That’s true for like all of humanity, but the scale is global now instead of just “the peasants are eating dirt”

Though now I’m thinking of a story where someone infiltrates their way into being the pilot for a rich asshole, and then jumps out and lets the billionaire blow up in the crash. Noting that down for my near-future dystopia tabletop rpg.

Yeah. I wouldn’t bring it up as a non sequitur but it’s pretty important.

We’re a stupid country rules by assholes and morons.

You just know if someone tried to make a serious push for it, all the fox news types would go into a frenzy. It’d be an easy way to whip up their idiot base.

My impression is a lot of the people in the hiring pipeline are bad at this job. Maybe they’re good at other parts of their job, but not hiring. Especially not the recruiters who aren’t themselves technical

Some of the other status codes would be concerning, too. 403 Forbidden - invites you down path of dark sorcery to get authorized. 302 Found - is he back somehow??

Now that song by the clash is in my head again

I’m all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

More trolls should suffer consequences

There’s ample history of the police beating up labor to protect capital’s interests. Not surprised my schooling didn’t spend a lot of time on that.
