NO! Everyone MUST speak how I do at all times, or they’re WRONG!
There’s only one way to speak, and any linguistic deviation will be reported to the POLICE!

That’s why you should always include a banana in the picture. Then we can tell if the clock is right side up in relation to the banana.

I’ve thought about this, and having worked in hospitals and nursing homes, I’ve seen a lot of people die, so it’s given me some perspective.
My husband is the closest person to me by far. He also has a lot of chronic health problems. I suspect he will pass away before me.
The older I get, the fewer people I have in my life. In my 20s and into my 30s, I had a lot of friends, but little by little they’ve fallen off. I’ve got a couple friends in my MTG playgroup and one friend who I go longboarding with in the summer, but beyond that, I’ve pretty much lost touch with everyone. This only gets worse as time passes.
Best-case scenario is that I die in a nursing home or hospital, completely alone. Maybe my nieces and nephews might visit sometimes, but there’s no way I’d ever see them frequently, nor should they feel compelled. I’ll be old and confused in a strange scary place, with people talking in that condescending baby voice that I saw a lot of CNAs and nurses use. If I’m still able, I can play video games or something up until the end, but I have reason to suspect I have the beginning of Parkinson’s like my dad, so slim chance of that. I’ll just die staring at the ceiling, in a completely emotionless void.
Worst-case scenario (most likely) is that I get put in a nursing home but evicted for being too poor. Then I’d just die faster out on the streets or something, or in a shelter. And come to think of it, this might actually be the preferred scenario.
Either way, I’ll certainly die alone and unloved.
I have a book about this, and I think it’s good to plan ahead.
I’m also too scared to read the book because I struggle with suicidal thoughts, and I fear I might make the decision too soon, when I’m in fairly good health.
As a 2FA supporter, I get a bit addled when the time sync isn’t working properly and my discord login won’t accept the code
No one person can represent an entire culture though. That’s why it’s on us to learn how to be respectful.
For example, someone from Mexico might be just fine with offensive Hispanic stereotypes, but that doesn’t excuse such behavior. You can’t just ask a random person for a pass, like what? Even asking for something like that would be utterly tasteless lmao
But cultural appreciation is not what is meant by “cultural appropriation.” Cultural appropriation is when it’s done in a disrespectful manner.
I grew up with some utterly racist experiences in school – the feather “headdress” and cardboard tipis, the sombreros on Cinco de Mayo, etc.
I wish I’d had someone at the time to explain why that was wrong.
To me, the term “cultural appropriation” refers to things like schools having kids make chicken feather “headdresses” to “celebrate” Native American Day, or wearing a religious symbol in a disrespectful way. Even though people like the person in the post can be annoying, I think it’s still progress that we’re able to have these discussions, and I think it’s too bad that for many people the takeaway seems to be “cultural appropriation is never problematic.” I’d take the person from the post any day over someone who thinks they’re immune from criticism when they unintentionally engage in behavior that truly is disrespectful.
I’m a bit of a nerd about longboarding and also building Commander decks in Magic the Gathering.
I wouldn’t say I’m an expert in either case, but I’m really interested in trying different setups and also seeing people discuss their own experiences and builds.
Oh, that’s too bad, in that I’m not currently a bird.
🤔
Will you be my lawyer if I get caught? “Your honor, let the record show that my client wasn’t circumventing the lock – he physically destroyed the lock instead. Nothing further, your honor.”
Holy shit, that governor really made an ass of himself. He just kept doubling down lol
Thanks for the links!
I’d feel like that would be crossing a line that I’ve made for myself. In theory, I’m not opposed, but I feel like the stakes would be much higher once it involves circumventing a lock.
If I were very desperate, I’d do it.
I miss Radio Shack, but also I feel like toward the end there the workers wouldn’t even let me breathe.
A good Samaritan reported it and was basically charged with hacking the state
Wait, really? What would I search to read more about this? Do you remember which state?
What is the 196 sub?
Shitposting community that is expressly LGBT+ affirming and trends leftist (see stickied posts, for example)
Why is the bad guy depicted as a Chad?
Good question lol. Maybe because the person who doesn’t look like a male stereotype is the reasonable person in this post?
Do we get a poem?
Then I’m left with no choice but to depict myself as the gigachad
I was hoping to avoid such extreme measures
True, but web designers already treat Firefox and its offshoots as an afterthought. Do you think without Mozilla it would get even worse?
I realize most people who would visit 196 certainly know this, but I still feel compelled to point out that anarchism is entirely incompatible with capitalism.
This is great! Thank you so much for compiling these resources. I’ve bookmarked it for reference. Please don’t delete it!
