It is. They’ll never win their legal battles, so they’re left to shout fruitlessly about it on social media, like dummies.

There are plenty of jobs out there that are neither “dream jobs” nor jobs that make you want to kill yourself every Monday morning. A lot of people just place no value whatsoever on their happiness, so they’ll readily accept higher pay for feeling like absolute shit week-in and week-out, for literal decades of their…

How is this different from any other situation online? The bigger a community becomes, the harder it becomes to run it. Streamers with thousands and thousands of followers need to hire (as in, fucking pay) people to be admins for them, and to handle this shit. Just tossing out some vague plea for Twitch to “do better”…

I already think that death should be the punishment for being caught riding an e-scooter around town. Is there something worse than death for this?

But it’s funny to go after her looks, so that’s what we’re going to do, wokescold.

They exist and continue to exist because some people think autonomous cars will arrive before Uber’s bankruptcy.

Reread, then. My point is that it’s chilling to see people, particularly those in the media, effectively arguing that a corporation should shut down speech that is derisive toward politicians, with little to no added insight about the deeper ramifications of that request.

Well, we should be free to believe obvious lies if we want. But that’s not really the point I’m making, and you know it. Reread if you’re unconvinced. If rereading doesn’t help, then you must just have a really weird motivation to read past my argument.

Or we could stop appealing to corporations to manage that decision-making process for us.

Sublime are, and always were, really bad. The notion that Lana Del Rey can make them seem hip and relevant says more about how stupid poptimism has made us (thinking of people like her as tastemakers) and very little about Sublime’s quality as an influence. Unlike Nirvana, who had credibility and a cemented legacy…

No.

I’m asked that question all the time out here in the real world.

Stop asking for unaccountable corporations to fact-check for you. Thanks.

Nobody actually thinks the video is real, though. Somebody saying, “Haha, look! Pelosi is drunk!” to trigger liberals is not really evidence to the contrary.

They don’t think the video is real. They think the video is funny, and that reposting it and acting like it’s real in order to “own the libs” only extends the humor. Like it or not, those are completely different things.

It’s a fucking fake video being presented as a factual video.

I’m glad Facebook decided not to take it down. We can decide what we want to see. We don’t need big tech companies acting as the arbiters of what’s true enough to view, or so false it shall not be consumed by anyone. Jesus Christ, I’ll never get these sorts of calls for corporate censorship whenever people are met…

Somewhere anonymous in the Midwest where you end up taking home more dough at the end of the year, even though you nominally earn a far lower salary, because cost-of-living is a thing that exists.

I, like many, found Daenerys Targaryen’s transformation from fierce-but-fair dragon queen to power-crazy city destroyer to be a bummer for a lot of reasons, not least of all because her season eight arc mirrors the way ambitious women are demonized out in the real world.

Maybe you’re the one who needs to log off?
