This was me. Not that I was racist in any way, but I was brought up with a father that absolutely did not (still does not) think that systemic racism existed, that wokeness was damaging, really that any issues the left focused on were mindless and stupid and damaging.

I went into my first sociology class with that kind of mindset, and the moment I actually started doing research for papers, I realized how wrong I was.

Really the only people who rail against “woke” education are the ones who haven’t gone to college (my dad) or those making money and power from the grift.

Start dressing in drag and watch their heads explode.

Actually, maybe don’t. They’d literally murder you.

I wasn’t able to upgrade until last year. And there are still places around me that don’t have fiber

I more and more believe that religion should be treated like a mental illness.

If you told people that you heard voices in your head, they’d put you on meds. If you tell them Jesus spoke to you they’ll put you in charge of a country.

My laptop just updated (windows 11) and they now put bullcrap tips, weather, and stocks cards on the lock screen if you want to use the daily landscape images.

Love the landscape images, but those cards are now not optional. Fucking moronic and I need to just get off windows entirely.

Yep!

People need to address the state in the only language it knows.

All the state knows is obstruction and violence. So that’s what they should get and deserve.

Fingerprint [records]. It says that in the article. Does it please you to be so pedantic?

No less than 10 minutes, but no more than 45 minutes.

That actually might be amazing.

All to do what? Write emails and generate mediocre pictures?

The usefulness of AI currently is not much better than predictive text.

They’re cosplaying as strong people, but really they’re just stupid.

Prenups. Prenups should be standard for all marriages. Protects pre-marriage assets, determines how assets are split, and leaves little room for long, drawn-out divorce processes.

You can make those rational decisions when you’re happy and rational, rather than when you’re emotional.

You’re right about Google being trash at answering that.

It just completely ignores the question.

How do people stand to listen to this moron? He rambles on and on about nonsense, pulling buzzwords and patronizing his followers.

His followers really are that stupid though.

Then enjoy Trump.

This works with my listening habits, which are something like “I have like one new (-to me) album on heavy rotation every couple of weeks”

I actually kinda do the same thing, so you’ve got me thinking I should start just buying albums. Build a Jellyfin server so I can still stream music, and just not deal with subscriptions.

And actually, most of the time I buy records that come with digital downloads anyway. Time to rethink my Tidal subscription.

Reddit getting paid to do fuck-all while their users generate all their content.

Actually, it’s worse than that because Reddit actively makes the site shittier every month.
