Now you’ve got me wondering which would be worse in a blizzard, a chili dog or (Cajun fried) alligator.

None of the above. They’re stealth assassins.

Are people really this illiterate, or is it an affectation?

Every US State has its own government, too. I don’t see that as an excuse.

The better question is “why didn’t the 23^rd grant voting rights to all US citizens in all territories?”

Let’s just say it looked like a Jackson Pollock by the end.

Yeah, nobody does. That’s why citing them as Sorbo “getting a lot of roles” is a fucking joke.

Believe it or not, “digital” rabbit ears (which are exactly the same as regular old-school ones, but with stupider marketing) on each TV.

My Boomer parents never used social media to begin with (unless forwarded chain emails count?). I did manage to get them to ditch cable TV and mindlessly vegetating on Fox News all day, but they still (unfathomably) prefer OTA TV to streaming so they’re still in Sinclair’s thrall. IDK what else to do at this point.

It’s still very true that the media deserves it, though. Their normalizing and both-sidesing and horse-racing and sanewashing has been a large part of how this fascist cancer was allowed to metastasize in the first place.

Okay, we’ve got to quit only “suing” people who commit FELONIES and pretending that’s good enough!!

Let’s be honest, being billionaire taker scum he probably likes the fascists better anyway.

Sure, you can work around Microsoft’s intentional sabotage, in the same way that you can make excuses about “falling down stairs” when friends ask about the black eyes your abusive spouse gave you. But you shouldn’t have to.

Oh and…

It takes the same fucking time when configuring your Linux distro of choice, unattended or not.

…no it fucking doesn’t, BTW. (At least not unless you intentionally choose to use a ‘difficult’ distro like Arch or Gentoo.)

That’s right: it is a fucking tool, which means nothing the user does to it or with it could possibly count as “abuse” by the user. An OS is supposed to exist to do exactly the computer owner’s bidding; no more, no less.

But Microsoft certainly doesn’t see it that way. Instead, Windows exists to do Microsoft’ bidding, computer owner’s rights be damned. It’s Microsoft that’s abusing you, by whoring you out to advertisers and subverting your property against you, when you use Windows.

If you’re going to go back in time to help Sega, you should go farther back and stop them from releasing the 32x against the Saturn.

ITT: Stockholm Syndrome victims defending the abusive relationship they have with their OS.

Newsflash, honey: she doesn’t respect you; she only wants to exploit you. It’s time to break up!

In a sane world, it would be 90%+ Harris. It is absolutely catastrophic that half the country is in thrall to a fascist cult.

“Trump wants to make taxes massively regressive in order to enrich billionaires and fuck over the middle class even more.”
