Advocate for freedom and tolerance even if you say things I do not like

Adversary of Fediblock

Accept that I'll probably say something you don't like and I'll give you the same benefit, and maybe we can find some truth about the world.

Ah... Is the Alliteration clever or stupid? Don't answer that, I sort of know the answer already...

My wi-fi reset at 4am and it brought up an old copy of my lotide instance with a bunch of exploding-heads posts.

Man, I miss exploding-heads and wolfballs. The threadiverse is just a bunch of judgemental authoritarian redditors without it. "Defederate threads! Defederate Nazis! Defederate alt-right! Defederate the unacceptable form of feminists!" Boring.....

People who are lower on the social ladder tend to end up where they can walk. Most crime happens in the areas around where criminals live and less happens where they can't walk to. It's pretty unfair when you think about it, but that's life.

Most train stations are set up so you can walk to them easily, but most airports are in industrial areas or out of town so it isn't as easy to walk there.

You can remove easy mode if you want, but I'm gonna cheatengine myself over 9000 in all my stats because I'm old and bad at video games and want to pretend I finished a game despite only having 5 minutes at a time.

Stupid sexy sith

Exodos is SSS tier.

Holy crap, it lets you play over 7000 MS-DOS games, and it catalogues the settings required to make the games work so they all start with a click. The full version is a whopping 1TB(!!!!!), the lite version only contains metadata and is still 6GB, and when you go to install a game it downloads it using bittorrent from no doubt legal sources.

It even lists some of those old shareware games everyone has forgotten.

People who aren't old as the hills might not know this, but even if you had a top tier computer back in the 90s, you didn't have any guarantee that a game would run. I was subscribed to gaming magazines back then (as was the style at the time) and you'd have a game that didn't claim to need anything special, and it'd crash on startup -- completely dead, never to run. Same with some shareware, the stars aligned and it didn't want to run and it didn't matter what you did with your config.sys or autoexec.bat it wasn't running, so that's incredible that even for the old shareware stuff you can just click, download, and play.

You muted me last time I bothered digging up actual data, so I'll just leave it at "ok."

I get a kick out of the idea that Canadian hospitals overflowing is because of COVID.

Oh geez, damn that COVID! it's been in our hospitals for going on 20 years now! If only that last 15% got vaccinated, everything would be different!

Hollywood doesn't run most cons on earth...

I had a dream once where the drill sergeant from full metal jacket screamed in my face: "half of all armies that go to war lost. Do your think the only reason is that they weren't trying hard enough?"

Hitler was well known for eating food.

The only cold winter came from the economic and social consequences to their insane policies

Silence is not consent. Unless it's an oak tree, if it is, get your freak on.

The distinction between "liberal" and "woke" or "left" gets more important all the time. It would be smart for the right (and the center, and the non lunatic left) wing to start making the distinction more explicit because having such an authoritarian ideology as wokeness taking on a mantle like liberal is dangerous. If that doesn't change then it'll end up being authoritarianism vs. authoritarianism and nobody will win.

Cut out your citizens hearts to prevent climate change.

They play all the ads after 1pm, "rough morning? You may be eligible for a huge cash settlement."

Can we make this a class action?

Apparently self-awareness is dead though.

Canada used to be cool.... But then some really bad decisions got made......
