We still have monuments donated by Fascist Italy standing in Chicago.

Nobody cares about anyone’s border policies, except for Trump’s racist base.

You are misunderstanding their priorities.

People from former republican administrations are not the sort of people who take principled, reasonable positions.

These are sycophants jumping from the burning ship.

They know any chance Trump had to recapture power vanished when Biden decided not to re-run.

They know the republican party is in a bad place because Trump’s RNC is doing nothing to support down-ticket candidates. It’s a powerless organization made only of unpopular positions on any sort of visible issues.

MAGA will continue to imprint itself through the judiciary until Dems pack the courts (again), but supporting Kamala is the sycophant’s only play right now.

Because they are not reasonable or principled people, I would not expect them to have any reasonable or principled input on policy.

A fountain pen is just a controlled leak

Identifying might be the best word to use, given the psychology literature all tends to use that, but thank you for your critique.

Why are people so interested in defining themselves along sexual identity and orientation in relatively recent western culture?

Why now? Why is it so different from most of human existence?

Because we are no longer facing famine. The Green Revolution has made our relationship with food so secure we no longer define ourselves in relation to it.

Throughout most of history people are farmers or ranchers or shepherds or bakers or butchers or millers.

So, we climb the Biological hierarchy of needs looking for our next characteristic that needs fulfillment.

Vim makes it easy to edit text in complicated ways, once you’ve learned it.

Vim is not easy to learn nor intuitive.

It is simple and compounding.

You might not ever edit enough text to ever need to learn a new skillset to edit text. If that’s the case, use nano.

But if you do find yourself editing a lot of text, consider trying vimtutor.

It takes 20 minutes and you’ll be proficient enough to match nano’s efficiency ceiling.

Lmao when you get roaches.

We just had Hulk Hogan unironically mime Idiocracy at the Republican national convention.

Whenever you wonder, “can republicans really be this dumb?” Just expect the answer to go even lower.

So yes, of course, Starship Troopers is about society loyally defending itself from Gutians to these people.

Both have temu-level garbage, but it’s cheaper on Amazon.

Currently, as they are dying today, yes.

This is not how malls have traditionally worked.

In the past, malls provided a plug-and-play way for national chain retail to offer premium, private-labeled goods that allowed them to extract money away from a community’s locally owned stores found on main street.

Malls were just a way to privatize mainstreet and allow the ownership class of capitalists to extract more money from a local economy through large chain stores and to give them private control over what used to be public space.

Now the middle class is worth a fraction of what it used to be, their purpose has dissolved.

People use Amazon instead of the mall because they can still afford the Temu-level garbage Amazon sells.

Hyperbole is a rhetorical device.

Accept its existence or die.

Spent hours playing this on some demo disk.

Everybody loves their first Diamondback.

They are basically dinosaurs.

American Robins are not the same as European Robins.

American Robins were named so because they vaguely reminded British settlers of their robins “from home”.
