Reply to Hate people who disrespect tap water by neku
My tap water is so chalky that it leaves my hair really greasy. I have to tell my guests not to worry about the silty white layer on top of the rinsed grapes, and I have to tell them not to worry about the brown-red residue in my shower and toilet. (Cleaning them weekly is not enough.) I have to filter and boil most of the water I drink to get rid of the taste and smell of sulfide, and the EWG tap water database tells me that many of the contaminants in my municipalitys water are close to the legal limit.
Not sure if that's the water I drink, since I have well water. I'm regularly cleaning and replacing our aerators, because they get filled with sand.
I get Primo 5 gallon water jugs refilled with water from a municipality that has better water. It tastes better, it doesn't leave silt on grapes, and there's never any sand in my drinking water.
Maybe the water bottling plant is located there because it has nicer tap water? I'm not trying to be contrarian, but tap water actually can be bad.

Reply to An immediate horror: New site "VoteRef" is publishing voter history, location, age, and address data. You can find any registered voter by name or address, or vice versa. by twovests
If it makes you feel any better, I had a conversation one time with an elder butch activist, who said she went undercover as a skinhead at a fascist rally. The fascists read off her full name and address, and those of her fellow activists at the rally, and the other fascists cheered and called for violence against them. But, nobody ever showed up at her house. Given that millions of people voted for Harris, I'm not too worried about maga fascists tracking down and harassing every single one of them.
Edit: I also know people who have been listed on Key Wiki, and never had anything happen to them.

There's a reason I've been a subscriber for a decade it's real good.

I don't think you can self-host feedbin but I think it's worth the $5/month

first thing that comes to mind
i guess if you ate like berries with the stem, then technically you're eating a little bit of wood... maybe. i'm no wood scientist.

Are you paying the $5/month or self-hosting? I've been using FraidyCat, but if the selfhost route is good, I'd like to check that out.

Reply to comment by cowloom in The Conservative forums are pretty big on the "you should explain your views every chance you get" thing by twovests
Absolutely.
This is a forum where January 6th was kind of planned. I balked at them for saying some hilarious shit, like "I can't go because if I leave, who will stop commies from killing my family?" or "I have to go, because if I don't, commies will kill my family." I'm not exaggerating here. Then the riot actually happened, so I went here to check the pulse again.
Now, it's really a lot of practical "growing the cult" mindset, but yeah, they're totally right here.
I really attribute the community here at JstPst for taking opportunities to educate me. I had a lot of bad thinking in me that some of the people here were able to comb out, and they gave me a lot of patience and grace. That was 12 years ago, but I think it's a winning strategy.
I've had increasingly few opportunities to "reach across" a divide, given the pandemic and the tea party / MAGA / whatnot.
There is a grave feeling in my heart currently

I don't think they're wrong for wanting to seize opportunities to educate people, because that's what I try to do with leftist topics. It's what they believe that I object to, which is why I'm glad this individual chose to roll their eyes and disengage.

This is what unity-struggle-unity was made for. But not enough leftists want to actually practice principled struggle.

I've been thinking about leftism a lot. One of conservatism's big strengths is that they have a huge culture against infighting. I guess a group that prides itself on confirming will have a better unity of direction than a group of individuals which prides itself on nonconforming.

Love council juice, love being able to pour myself a tall glass of cool, clear water at any time of day that tastes of fuck all.
