This is great! Thank you so much for compiling these resources. I’ve bookmarked it for reference. Please don’t delete it!

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

Holy shit, that governor really made an ass of himself. He just kept doubling down lol

Thanks for the links!

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?

True, but web designers already treat Firefox and its offshoots as an afterthought. Do you think without Mozilla it would get even worse?

For those communities that do already have a stateless, classeless society, you mean? This happens.

The TL:DR is that you function on the agreed-upon principles of horizontality and mutual aid, but I know that doesn’t sound like a satisifying answer, and there are so many ways that might look.

China followed Maoism, which was also an authoritarian state. In such theories, they are “communist” in that they ostensibly seek to progress to a communist society. Tbh I doubt the sincerity of such a pursuit.

There are communities that could be genuinely considered communist in its true form, but people typically don’t cite them as examples of communism working since they’re not nation-states … which is the whole point lol

Maybe in a Marxist-Leninist state, but not in communism defined as a stateless classless society. There is no ruling class in such a society.

Every calzone I’ve ever eaten has had sauce. And I only buy the really high quality authentic ones from Sbarro.

All wines matter!

Maybe I’m just cynical, but I always read headlines in non-academic news sites like this as “some research suggests…”

There’s obviously nothing entirely conclusive, but it looks promising at least.

Don’t you think this is an unfair way of framing this? There are plenty of people who may value their relationship who this could help. It’s no different than taking anti-depressants or other meds that can help improve their quality of life.

However if George Lucas came out against gays and trans people, would you taint the entire franchise?

Yes. I would immediately lose ibr interest in Star Wars and go do something else. There’s plenty of entertainment out there that’s not made by shitty bigots.

I was a moderately engaged HP fan before I learned what a colossally awful human the author is, but her TERF ramblings also made me realize there’s quite a lot of racial and ethnic stereotypes baked into the franchise. It’s probably the fastest I’ve ever totally abandoned an interest in a series. Even if we do separate the works from the author like so many fanbois suggest, they’re still awful.

In that sense, it worked. Let’s face it: The people who don’t care about the author’s raging bigotry were never going to be convinced regardless, but there were a lot of us who didn’t even consider playing it because of the TERF.

Knitting is super fun. I used to do it every day until I started my masters. I keep thinking I should restart this hobby. As long as you don’t buy ridiculously premium yarns, it’s super cheap too. I used to find boxes of yarn at yard sales or thrift stores.

It’s weird for me. I get the cookie bullshit in reader view, but if I refresh it then I see the article. This happens with uBO enabled or disabled, either way.

Someone actually mentioned this to me a while ago, and I was planning to try it. Thanks for reminding me!

Gods help us all.

I wish there were an add-on to hide all monetized channels from my feed.
