thats not really what democrats are interested in, though, is it? like biden said (who is probably functionally exactly the same as clinton, except perhaps a little less hawkish and definitely more senile) when he was campaigning, under his government "nothing would fundamentally change". they dont care about preventing the "this" youre referring to in your title, they want to ensure that the deckchairs on the titanic are perfectly arranged (though not as much as they want to fundraise).

no never. i think that's supposed to be an american thing??

make sure to stand up as soon as the plane lands so that everyone knows that you're important

ya i dont give a FUCK about the magistrate

maybe if you're an open source development guy for long enough eventually you become an Open Source Development Guy

i dont use the federation stuff but i forgot that it was a twitter derivative and not just like, forums or whatever. i hope they continue to use "toot" as the name for their posts and the whole platform fails because of only that

sure but why would fb see mastodon as a rival? surely itd be better to spin up some take on twitter or something to capitalise on a dying platform rather than try and colonise a community of almost uniformly anti-facebook users

but its literally worse than physical money, which requires no overhead on the part of the individual and is virtually untraceable unless youre doing some serious shit. all this effort and the only ostensibly redeemable thing is worse than the system in use since the invention of "dollars"

sure but what would it be called

well it allowed the usa to invade the middle east so who can say if 9/11 was good or bad

lol at you getting scolded for not being kumbaya about getting your work lifted without credit. open source development seems cool

feels pretty good to not understand what youre talking about

stealing valour

I think people who work in advertising should be sent to the fields

I think any sensible viewer would already have realised that this site is the Tammany Hall of online, but thank you for clarifying.

they should be more considerate

you know what? i will purchase indian railway tenders

life is pain :(

oh i totally agree. i'm just being petty lol

im mostly totally sympathetic to people who reorganised their lives to work from home during covid and now have to resist these employers demanding that they get back to working in person and definitely support their efforts. but the part of me whos been working at a supermarket for most of my professional life is like "well... like... part of having a job is going in to the place where the job is..."
