Dems: Republicans are Nazis

Also Dems: we’re campaigning with Republicans!

Lucky for me, I can’t afford to replace my 20 year old car anyway.

Is that a picture of Joe Exotic?

Yeah I have. There’s a couple of promising programs that everyone should know about:

But for me, I’m too new to programming to pick up another language very quickly to do all the manual stuff right now. Anyone more skilled than me should definitely check those links out.

I mean… They are Nestle, so they might as well bee

You have to accept that privacy costs money because your data isn’t being sold. For $5+ a month you can use proton Mail or tutanota. For ~$2 a month you can use Zoho mail or Titan mail.

Whatever you choose, it will be worth it.

This is the stupidest timeline.

Social Champ + Mastodon FTW

If they push a few million people to FOSS and we’re all just happily using Lemmy and Mastodon on Firefox in Linux, I’m ok with that.

Where did Rob Cantor get $20k?

So anyway, I started blasting

And I insist that the supreme Court is illegitimate.

Hopefully I’m not mistaken, but I’m going to assume you are asking in good faith.

Capitalism is an ideology of infinite growth. Capital is only invested for growth, that’s the whole point…so corporations have to consume more, produce more, sell more, or capitalists will take away their capital investments. Think of it this way, you’re a capitalist (by which, I don’t mean someone who believes in the idea of capitalism…I mean someone who makes the bulk of their wealth with capital investments instead of labor) with millions invested in an oil company – that oil company realizes that we need to phase out the use of fossil fuels for the sake of the planet – so they announce a plan to limit production (and therefore profits).

Your capital is how you make your money, so if they announce a very finite upside (with a real possibility that in a decade or two, their whole business will dry up), you will quickly take your millions and move them somewhere else. And you won’t be alone – think of the bank run that Silicon Valley Bank had once everyone suspected the bank would have solvency problems. And before you know it, that whole company has lost trillions and fails almost immediately.

Now repeat this while coal, commercial beef farms, and down the line of the worst industries for the climate.

The corporations that are the main source of climate change causing emissions also know that if any one of them chooses to do the right thing for the planet, other, less ethical corporations will see blood in the water, and take over their portion of the market; and nothing will change for the environment, all that CEO will have done is put thousands of their own workers out of business.

Socialism, by contrast, is not an ideology of infinite growth. At it’s core, it’s an ideology of collectivism – we all need to take care of everyone else – this includes making sure everyone has a habitable planet to live on. The government can make sure all companies play by the rules, for the benefit of all humankind, not just do as they do now…ask nicely for the corporations to be nice, and then shrug their shoulders when nothing changes.

“ever recorded” - there was nobody around to record the formation of the earth.

Seriously! I give it pretty good odds this runs for a full month, then we’ll probably get some relief with days that are only near record-breaking 🥵

Any lyrics would be better than “tell me more…did she put up a fight?”

It is an absolute nightmare, but you can gain some privacy back with ublock origin, an adblocking DNS on your phone, Firefox, a VPN, and ditching all things google/meta. As I type this out, I am reminded how much effort it takes to claw back your privacy…yeah OP, I’m with you, the modern internet is a profit-at-all-cost cesspool that can eat a moldy potato!
