I like to remember that America recovered from the robber barons and monopolists of the Guilded Age. It’s unfortunate that the thought rides tandem with the fact that it took a major world conflict and America seizing control of the world economy, and the America that emerged was really only great for white people. But maybe modern progressivism is less racist than it was and the next social revolution will be class based instead of race based. A guy can try to hope, a little bit as a treat.

There are some real sickos out there man

Don’t call somebody a child and then smarmily call them friend when you think you have a gotcha. I agree with your point but your messaging is terrible and derisive.

The sense of “what can I even do” is so fucking overwhelming right now. I know that’s part of the goal, completely flood the zone to make us apathetic, but it’s working really well. This is exhausting, just getting through the day is exhausting, and still I feel a deep need to at least do SOMETHING, but don’t see anywhere my effort would even scratch the surface. I donate half my eggs to the community fridge, I offer free lawn care to locals that aren’t able to afford it or do it themselves, I am vocal about progress in spaces that are traditionally conservative, but at the end of the day it doesn’t feel like it matters or makes any difference.

I would argue that British English is one of the least plain languages out there, and just about the only thing brits don’t prefer plain.

I’d say Thank you very much

No it’s not!

Is bigotry for clout not somehow worse than at least holding a bigoted conviction?

I mean I’m just here because of the API thing

I just wondered what you meant by learning how to use GIMP

Obviously it’s from this coming November.

Do you mean like altering your biometric signature with imagine manipulation software? Don’t a lot of these verification services require a live camera?

You should figure out what you did and how to make amends.

CT did away with that a long time ago afaik. Grew up there, never had that happen to me but my father remembers that. They could also go to the bars at 18…
