It boggles my mind too. I still think I should be around the bare minimum for intellect. Too often, it seems like they're all Pakleds.

I just realized it's been well over a week since I've posted anything. I'm not even interacting much at all.

Dealing with such a dysfunctional family is exhausting.I couldn't begin to describe how bad it gets to someone who has never experienced it.

Things aren't crisis level, but always on alert.

You use AI, do you want to get nuked? Cause that's how you get nuked!

There's Norway, Switzerland and Spain. All three have a net wealth tax. We have working examples. We have historic examples. It's not impossible, just difficult until the people act.

The REALLY rich are orbiting overhead in their luxury space station.
The rest of the rich won't leave the US. Any country that's a tax shelter will likely grab their money other ways, or kidnap them. Good countries will tax them fairly, and that won't do.

I'd rather be out actually antifa-ing the shit out of these evil bastards, but thanks to their system I'm one cheque away from pushing a shopping cart to the overpass.
So I complain online. I inform online.
As should we all.

Only twice, in the best circumstances.

How often does hearing "this time, it will be different" work out? On average, I mean.
For me? On the nearly never side.
People are creatures of habit. If they did it one way, then even if it was unsuccessful, it's very likely they'll do it the same way again.

Unless it's a murder-suicide, seeing those two names on a video mean I'll never see it.

That will never make sense to me. The experience was a nightmare for all of us who were the bullied.
The bullies seemed to have a great time.

Back when I was in Grade 8, I was bullied (surprise!).
Instead of disciplining the bullies, they sent me to an outdoor program. With bullies.
Apparently my attitude kept me getting punched and not the troglodyte population.
Who thinks like this? Worse still, I hated people AND camping.
Still do.

Does anyone know if ICE protestors have been upping their game with face recognition tech?
I've been looking up info on identifying these jackboot thugs despite their disguises. Apparently,tech exists to use periocular(around the eyes) biometric info to match faces.
We've got to get accountability!

I have GOT to stay the hell off of Facebook.
Geesh.
Spent some time on a page dedicated to the new ST: Starfleet Academy show.
Oh, the pathetic whining of a million "men" who are terrified when a show has less people like them than they're used to.
Every meme uses "woke". They refuse to define that.

Who the hell sends official correspondence by Twitter?!?
He's a six year-old.

I wasn't going to stop. He literally Sieg Heiled not once but twice to the crowd.
Trump is a Nazi, Musk is a Nazi and every single Republican and MAGA are Nazis.

I'm so glad to see that chatgpt is scheduled to go broke by next year.
So far, all the promises have been broken and it's been generally a big fail.
It's going to be at a point where people are making strange music and deepfakes and not much else.

I ended up blocking her. Started with nose out of joint about half the US being idiots, ended up with every Canadian being evil. Not stupid - evil. So strange.

Christ, what a ridiculous day!
Trolls and American "exceptionalists".
I'm trying to taper down my smoking and this kind of shit doesn't help.

All Canadians? You're definitely a troll and not worth the effort.

Our conservatives? I wouldn't doubt it. If it's proved I'd say life in prison for anyone helping Trump or Epstein commit any crime.
I'm not attached to Canadian politicians like they're movie stars. That's so American. We have a multi-party system and the PM is a representative not a boss.

I knew - just wanted to make you work for it.
1,600 deportations in a month. You really think that equates to the shit show the US has?!?
We aren't breaking down doors, murdering mothers and children to remove legal immigrants who aren't the right color for your pedo pres.
We aren't the same.

Got legitimate sources for your statements?

Don't shoot the messenger. We have our share of idiots, but we don't pretend our country is exceptional where it isn't.
Canada is exceptional in that we share. We've created safeguards against cults of personality and unfettered greed.

Federal Data on Reading for Pleasure: All Signs Show a Slump We're taking a deep dive into the latest SPPA data on reading for pleasure.

The National Endowment of the Arts did a survey in 2022. The publication YouGov did a survey in 2023 with similar results.

I said half "don't" read. Not the same as literacy (which is abysmal as well). Surveys have shown half of US participants haven't ready any books in the last year. Easy to extrapolate from there.

I would truly like some pain as consequence for the right. They still pretend they are in the right. No brain is so dense they can't at least get a peek at the evil within.
I don't want death in sleep for him. I want paralysis and long life being abused by his caregivers.

As should you all.

In a world of insular social media, new ideas are rejected. Even if you dumb down ideas they need to be better - it's useless.

This is a perfect example of what this capitalist experiment has to perish.
You've got a nexus here where all the shitty things merge. The tools are there to fix it, yet nobody does.
The money's just too damn good.
Plague, fire or EMP...
Take it down. Start over.

Literacy is so low now, and stats say 50 percent of adult Americans don't read. It's about 1/4 adults red/maga and likely 1/4 who don't care/lazy.
Even 1/3 is staggering, but half is sickening.
