No, England didn’t set the borders on their way out, during this incident

Fr not only do they lose the popular vote… even the red states aren’t all 80/20… there are miserable intelligent Americans everywhere and nobody gives a shit. I’ve lived in blue bubbles my whole life and spent a ton of time in red places with red people (stop, you know what I mean), and there are always normal blue people. And most red people are only a disinformation or two away from being with it. Unfortunately that’s all it takes in a two party system and they game it well. Take away angels and abortion and before the hell cult, most Americans are half decent and not Nazis.

I look like a maniac laughing so hard at a diner ty

Yeah, I hear you and don’t think you’re off base or anything. Per my above peer comment, I think I’m just accepting our new norm and blocking when I can. I sell software and have done so since before LinkedIn. There are few ways to get attention now. The anarchist in me is disgusted and tries to spend time in nature. The middle aged defeated man sees that we live in fucking Minority Report 😔

That’s a totally reasonable point of view. I guess I just don’t think that’s worse than any other ad bullshit. My bar has been set by my experience. Of all the wars we’re losing, ads isn’t one I fight anymore. But I understand it’s a big deal for people.

Wow that’s incredible. As a kid “back in my day,” I had to find an old man to ear and transpose what wasn’t one of the 15 tabs in existence on the Internet yet. I probably have a hand written tab somewhere in a box.

That’s a totally reasonable response and I agree with you. I suppose I’m just having cognitive dissonance bc I don’t know what practices I’m supposed to have observed. I still use the site and the apps and haven’t seen anything unfriendly. Monday afternoon was my last visit iirc

*Decades worth of content free website with tons of features, also tries to make a living using standard ad practices for the premium product.

Sorry… bootlicker I guess. I’ve gotten thousands of hours of joy from that site. I’m still using tabs from half a lifetime ago. The mobile app is fantastic too. I’ve supported them when I’ve had the cash. A lot cheaper than lessons would have been for 30 years.

I laughed my ass off at this! So well put!

Today, my last 3 messages to Gemini were all pretty much: “cool! We’re agreed on the framework and tone etc in which you’ll communicate this thing to me. Now please, create the fucking thing already”

I hope so. When I’m paid well, I tip well, buy local. Hopefully they trickle the same.

I do this. If I have to hire offshore, they’re going to get paid like local royalty. Paid holidays etc. Gotta treat people like people.

Whenever I’m hating myself for my single use weaknesses, I picture a nurse doing one blood test or bandage… In every room… In every hospital… Everywhere… and that’s just healthcare which we give a pass for obvious reasons. If you want to project your self-hate onto others instead of using the exercise to chill out and be kind to yourself, you can even think of other industries like how much shit is coming out of some gun or Budweiser factory somewhere 🤷

So Ryan Gosling is a time traveler, eh?

With all products and services with any capacity to influence consumers, it should be presumed that any influence is in the best interest of the shareholders. It’s literally illegal (fiduciary responsibility) otherwise. This is why elections and regulation are so important.

I agree. You can’t have civilians being slaughtered anywhere. Everyone has lost their fucking minds with mental gymnastics. It’s all bad. There are no excuses. Nothing to do with politics, defense spending, feelings, whataboutisms… All genocide and war is bad.
