Mostly kind chonky weirdo. Gentle nerd freak of the pacific north west. All nation states are vermin.
There’s a mud brick from the Indus Valley with both cat and dog prints. They think it was a dog chasing a cat over the still-drying pile of bricks.
If meta or any other company manages to create a better product it’s just natural that people tend to use it. … It’s about having options
We can’t rely on the illusion of an even playing field to limit the influence of predatory capital like zukerberg’s. Big social media products are designed around the chemistry of decision making in the brain - they can win using an inferior, exploitative product with the worst user experience that could possibly bear profits.
I’m not necessarily in favor of defed-ing anything that zuck’s claws are in, but I think it’s very important to be wary of what opening the door for one of the world’s most genocide-encouraging social media companies could mean.
This is the company that proved in the 70s that not only does talcum powder contain asbestos, but talc itself is carcinogenic.

No one honestly understands why they do anything - some people are just better at making up plausible explanations.
We’re just animals, we do things. Sometimes we have a good guess as to why, sometimes not.
Most people attacking hunter know he’s irrelevant. The right loves staking an absurd position or threatening massive harm to extract concessions without giving up anything important.
I also suspect that some of this is to poison the well so it’s harder for democrats to prosecute trumps kids for all their crimes.
For at least 60 years, there’s never been an election in the town
anyone that just assumed an office through paperwork would face resistance in a small town.
It sounds like there was no resistance to assuming office through paperwork for at least 60 years before this, when the assumees were all white.
This is amazing! It’s like all the stupidity of the “bring back the gold standard” crowd, except instead of gold it’s 100% pure grift.
