Yeah, I sacrificed my SD slot in favor of the headphone jack when I chose my Pixel.

Remember when buying a phone meant they added new features instead of taking them away from you? Those were the days.

Easier to control your populace if they just have a 4th grade education and are directly dependent on the government to eat. But don’t worry about the Texan economy, they’ll be more than happy to siphon unearned money from blue states that actually create something of value instead of more culture war bullshit

Turns out Fascists only like free speech when it gives them a chance to talk freely about genocide. But then it’s “how dare you teach my children about human rights and good touch/bad touch, off to the gulag for you.”

Your dad is not a phone

The real key to making this work properly is standardized battery sizes. You know, like the AA and AAA standards we’ve had for one hundred years.

I stopped buying Samsung phones because of this bullshit

Fair enough. Demands that don’t appeal in some way to their id, then.

Unddit is one. Also reveddit and pushshift.

When you make up fake science out of whole cloth, it’s easy to make up something to that accords with people’s biases. Actual truth is simply less likely to fall into that category, and more likely to be uncomfortably inconvenient or terrifying. There’s nothing fun about global warming, deadly pandemics, nor microplastic pollution.

Fake news never makes demands on its target audience. Sometimes it says “you are the victim”, or “those people are the problem”, or at the very least, “this is fine.” But it never says “if we don’t get our shit together we and our children face a dismal future.” Instead it always appeals to the greedy and the lazy amongst us.

“Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have been sacked.”

Don’t commit treason against the United States of America if you can’t do the time.

It’s those darn squirrels again!

I think I just realized why my attempts at thwarting an ant invasion many years back failed catastrophically.

Hurt feelings isn’t what we need to be watching out for. Literally by definition, to be a supporter of the Republican Party after the events of Jan. 6 is to be a supporter of and defender of domestic terrorism against American citizens.

And ironically even the whole cuck thing is projection. Look up what Roger Stone and Paul Manafort have been up to. And I’m not sure about Stone but for Manafort there was major coercion on his end, so you can’t just chalk it up to a link, it’s just that the guy is a piece of shit like, let’s be honest here, all Republicans are.

Not all assholes are Republicans, but all Republicans are assholes.

Remember to knock it against your mug of grog to get the weevils out before you soak it in there.

Much easier to mine more helium on Earth. We have plenty still at home. The shortage is not because we’re literally running out of what we have on our planet.

One thing I’ve heard is when conservatives use the word “woke”, just replace it with “uppity”, because once you cut out all the bullshit that’s what they mean. To a conservative, everybody has a place in society in that there are people born onto a natural hierarchy. Black people are inferior to white people, poor people are inferior to rich people, etc., and in true Calvinist fashion it doesn’t matter what choices people make, there’s no action one can take to change their position. Wherever a person happens to be as an accident of birth defines their value. And in that line of thinking, the worst imaginable crime isn’t murder or rape or genocide, it’s upsetting the little caste system they’ve imposed upon the world. Woke ultimately means upsetting the caste system. That includes allowing women to have human rights, letting black people attend college, but even also applying the oh so bronze age concept of rule of law to those who commit crimes against someone “lesser than”.

Conservatism is literally incompatible with civilized society in the most fundamental sense. Democracy isn’t just at stake, it’s the entire concept of rule of law. If conservatives had their way, every day would be like The Purge.

Hurting people gets their dicks hard. Republicans are sadists who experience pleasure from causing harm to people and our society. The cruelty is an end in and of itself. Why does the rapist rape, why does the serial killer drag people into alleys to slash their throats? It’s all the same answer: they find pleasure in tormenting innocent people.

I liked it better when these rich pieces of shit used bread and circuses to distract the poor from rising up and cutting their heads off instead of this tiring busy-body culture war bullshit.
