Oh, I did. I argued with him for months, and he just kept getting more and more toxic and more and more spiteful.

Guy was my best friend in middle school. We reconnected after I graduated from college, played and beat L4D and L4D2 together. Then he started sending me political memes, and they were all fascist.
I tried to reason with him, but then he refused to engage with anything that was longer than like a page, or any video/audio source longer than about five minutes, but didn’t seem to have any problem sending me stuff way longer than that.
I still wonder if there was more I could have done. But I just didn’t need that in my life. I’m not some hero, I’m a downwardly-mobile working-class schlub who’s pretty good at playing piano and riding a bike. I shouldn’t be responsible for dragging this dipshit back from the depths of fascism just because he sat next to me in seventh grade history class, and honestly, with some of the things he claimed to believe, I probably didn’t even want him on my side anymore.
That’s what I tell myself, anyway.
what the fuck is up denny’s
Bottom right is cool in a vacuum, but there’s like… a shade of swastika to it? I dunno, maybe that’s just extremely online of me, but I’d be a little hesitant on it for that reason as compared to middle bottom.
The one that strikes my fancy the most is middle right, maybe just because it reminds me a little bit of Strava. Maybe the Fediverse colors could be applied to that one in some way, maybe teal and blue on top, red and orange on bottom, and purple as a fill? Or blue and purple on top with teal as a fill. In my head that looks cool, but in practice it might look like total ass. Worth trying anyway imo.
if that was true then maybe the stingy fuckers would tip wait staff
i think the mildly techy sounding waffle is the right way to set it up personally, it lulls you into a false sense of security thinking this is just some random tech nonsense and then bam, porn
yeah but then they’d be spending money to be told they might not be 100% right and perfect 100% of the time, and that’s just a waste of money
i never got into twitter, and the longer this goes on, the more glad i am about that
this is the funniest thing i have seen today
Even calling it a news update isn’t really accurate. It’s more akin to “water is wet.”
systemic change is required, that’s for sure. as to the how of that? fucked if i know tbh
It’s got a pitch transposer? That’s literally the only thing I need to leave Firefox for.
I use Chrome to run the Transposer For Youtube plugin because I haven’t found an equivalent for Firefox yet.
unfortunately as long as they’re still subject to the whims of global capitalism, they will never be free from perverse incentives
What we had has gone away.
I’m off the bike for a few weeks with a right arm radial head fracture after I biffed it hitting a pothole while checking my map, so I’m using it as an excuse to play the Tale Of Two Wastelands mod for Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Trying to see how much of both games I can get through before I’m cleared to bike again.
that’s the kind of line i would come up with in the shower three days later and be so mad i didn’t think of on the spot
sometimes i get ads for like maternity stuff or jewelry or cars
i’m a guy with a vasectomy and not enough money for a car
it’s very funny
ik this is a shitpost but that’s like the worst possible way to handle that situation
i’m like a third-generation none, my parents were both raised secular and their marriage was officiated by a guy from the a.h.a., but i had some christian classmates in like kindergarten or first grade (public school in california) and i sorta half remember asking my mom some question about something i’d heard them say at some point or another, and what she did was she explained to me (in 5yo detail, anyway) what christianity even was, which i didn’t really understand at that point, and that was enough to make it clear to me how silly it all was.
one of the easiest ways to figure out who to trust, imo, is looking for who can most accurately and fairly describe what their opponents’ argument is. trying to hide it away from a kid who’s looking for answers is just going to make it more intriguing. going over it in detail makes it clear what the problems are.
e: damn, who’d i piss off
