I’m sorry

Lets not forget Obama (in-part) paved the way for the shit we’re in now

I don’t use Google products anymore other than Maps (and only when I can’t find what I need using OSM or Magic Earth). I used DuckDuckGo which has gotten really bad.

I’m aware of SearX and self-hosting but it just seems like a giant pain to set up. I can do it (…and I probably will at some point) but I just get exhausted doing technology the hard way.

I’ve degoogled my phone, run linux on both laptop and desktop, set up a Pi-hole, and none of that stuff was intuitive or easy to set up and maintain.

I’m aware it’s a skill issue but like, I’m just tired man

Yes, I think so. Thank you

I don’t remember where I read this but I recall reading something about how having a certain amount of wealth/power is similar to having severe head trauma… I will see if I can locate it

Edit: boy that’s hard to search. All I’m getting is shit like “10 easy steps to rewire your brain for wealth!”

I can’t find it so take that with a grain of salt

Who likes any of them? Name me a state that isn’t dripping with blood. Name me a national leader who isn’t guilty.

Well sure, but knowing that doesn’t fix the problem

Its an absolute clown show from some of us inside the US too, but I’ve been saying “look at the clown!” ever since he entered politics and I don’t know man. People just keep telling me why they like the clown guy and his stupid red nose, and I’m just so tired. So tired and alone.

I’m guessing if they rewrite it things can only get worse

Yeah, maybe I’m just not smart enough but I always have the best luck with Debian/Ubuntu style distros. I’m glad Arch users are happy with Arch, it just doesn’t work for me

Not to defend Mini-hands Musolinni but the full quote reads a bit different:

"[Territory swaps will] be discussed, but I’ve got to let Ukraine make that decision. And I think they’ll make a proper decision. But I’m not here to negotiate for Ukraine. I’m here to get them at a table,” Trump said.

I’d prefer they set the building on fire

I don’t think we need to hear from the Signature Strike, Surveilance State, and gross expansion of executive power guy right now

That’s a lot of money.

How?

Yes, but I was making rough reference to our current posture on the middle east (quarter-century, war-on-terror) which I felt was an appropriate start point to the current discussion

I get the sentiment of some to be all “tHeY’rE mAd AbOuT aN aPp, NoT bOmBiNg CiVilIaNs!” but we’ve been bombing civilians for 25 years now, while the Signal controversy is new. You can (and should) be mad about both things but right now we need to recognise that the Signal scandal is giving us leverage on both sides on the aisle to move against this administraion.

We’d be fools not to lean in and leverage this moment

Maje sure you have enough food and ammo

They’ll find more ways to put people in ICE camps and in a few years they’ll find a “final solution” for all the people they’ve rounded up

I think this is behind the push to end Birthright Citizenship because then they can question anyone’s right to be here

Definitely unpopular opinion. I don’t know how everyone isn’t sick of shit-for-brains AI interactions
