Don’t forget making blue voters think it’s gonna be alright, no need for them to go out and vote, everyone else already has it in hand.

They’ve been forever condemned to c-span. Truly a tragic fate

Fresno City Councilmember Mike Karbassi released a statement on the incident, saying in part, “Enough is enough. We’ve endured days of fear-stricken enforcement that has now tilted into full-bore violence. I am calling on ICE to suspend its ongoing operations in the Central Valley.”

Fair criticism. However, we’d be a hell of a lot better off with the party of the status quo than we are now. Thousands of Americans wouldn’t be in foreign labor prisons or countries they have no ties to right now.

That’s the problem isn’t it? The Trump administration fucked shit up with speed but fixing it is gonna take forever. All those people they abducted without paperwork? They’re all gonna have to be processed somehow to bring them back home and it’s going to take a Hurculean effort in manpower to make it happen. Easier to ignore laws and break stuff than it is to work within them and fix stuff or get stuff done.

Well when the cost of living is high and wages are low it’s hard for most people to think about risking their job to protest or strike when it could mean losing your housing and going hungry.

What I think if Dems can wrestle power back is try to start fixing the shit the Repubs broke. Only issue is it’s gonna be slow af because they’ll work inside the bounds of the law and won’t force shit through like the current admin is doing.

Ah, gotcha. But yes I agree. Voting is the first step to change, but cannot be the only step.

Por que no los dos?

You got something to lose by voting anyway?

Are you incapable of enacting change both within and outside the bounds of the system?

Or is it just a zero sum game?

But… but, they’re both literally the same!

I’m certain that if the Dems won we’d still be looking at a looted government, a gutted FDA, a gestapo rounding up all “undesirables”, insanely high food and gas prices, and a possible rigged election involving a president running for a 3rd term.

And we all know voting does nothing so the best choice is to just not participate in any meaningful way so I can sit on my high horse and say I didn’t enable a a government that could have kept things together, but supported one or two things I didn’t like so if we instead eat the whole shit cake of everything we hate we just deserve it cause I made that choice for all of us.

Did you write this or is that quoted from somewhere? That’s a solid sci-fi description.

Prime military target

“Claude, does that building look like an insurgent camp?”

Claude: Why yes, it looks like a prime target for a drone strike.

“Got it. Fire all missiles”

“Sir, that was a hospital!”

“…”

Claude: On second, glance, you’re right. I can see how that could have been mistaken as an insurgent camp. I’ll do my best to remember that next time!

Thanks for your work man. Bento is great.

I mostly use it to unlock PDFs that really shouldn’t be locked in the first place. I’ve been meaning to try out some of the other features but hadn’t gotten around to it yet.

Keep it up!

Reading this just brings to mind the opening scene of Idiocracy, except, you know… worse.

Whoops! Typo

Good write up. This is something I’ve been putting off because of how irritating Calibre is to setup.

For Audible audiobooks, I’ve been using Libation, which I’ve found super simple to use. When it pulls the books it strips DRM automatically. It also allows for downloading any attached PDF files for audiobooks with illustrations like Sanderson’s novels tend to have.

🤷‍♂️ again tell them not me because that’s what’s happening.

But you can keep the guy on life support and refuse to let anyone see him saying while he is being apprised of what’s going on, he’s too weak to take on visitors right now, so just trust us bro.
