I just finished this last month. What a lovely game. Gotta try out the update.

I’m academically challenged alright. Learning disability and everything.

Nah, 13.12 - 3.14 = 9.98

It’s an American reality. Race still influences much of American life.

You are suggesting a poor mine worker from Romania is somehow more privileged based on how he looks.

You misunderstand the concept of privilege. It’s not linear. Intersectionality was devised to solve this exact contradiction.

Installing an operating system is a process that’s full of potential to be very painful no matter what the operating system is. All 3 major operating systems do their best to make it as painless as possible, but if you stray from the happy path, it requires technical knowledge to fix that most people don’t have. So the bottom line is that the OS which can make deals with manufacturers to pre install their OS with confirmed working drivers will seem more user friendly than the OS you have to install yourself. If you gift a noob a System 76 laptop and ask them to install Windows on it, they’re gonna balk at you the same ways as they would if it’s the reverse.

Of course it’s Matt Walsh

what a touching story!!

You had an opportunity to make people reconsider the glorification of monarchs. Instead you allowed the conversation to move from being a hypothetical about historical figures to being a concrete situation about your immediate friends. And then you doubled down on murdering one of those friends, whose connection was that he was playing a character in a play. It’s not your fault that you got such a loaded question, but the only appropriate response was to deconstruct that question. I think you could’ve steered that conversation differently.

If it’s a surprise that your friend is avoiding you, then I think you’ve had a lapse of empathy while gaining precisely zero ground in people understanding your position better. Whether your care about him avoiding you is your prerogative. But it shouldn’t be a surprise.

Making random screeching noises. I love it so much. But obviously I can’t do it around everyone all the time.

The last congress tried to ban TikTok, someone here posted a giant effortpost that explained the red scare propaganda reasoning, complete with a bunch of Chinese history and a focus on Deng. And then the instructions to install the app without using the App Store were at the bottom. Real leftist meme territory.

Currently following a queer mom on TikTok who is convinced that therian accounts are being artificially boosted among kids right now as a right wing op to conflate transgender kids with therian kids to make both less palatable to the general public and manufacture a moral panic.

The only unusual evidence she has so far is that she’s already gained several hundred followers on a fresh account just by lurking on therian stuff. It doesn’t prove any of the stuff she’s saying but it does suggest there’s some follow circles and botting happening.

I dunno it’s just fun to watch people go down a rabbit hole sometimes even if it’s really out there. I actually have a kid who says they’re a therian and am just kinda going with it. Getting them a mask to decorate and stuff. Apparently they’re not the only one in their class. It does seem to be on the rise regardless of it being natural growth or not.
