It’s similar to women who can’t leave their violent companion: they want to believe in something that does not exist, and will stretch their perception of reality to avoid admitting they’re wrong.

This analysis really fucking sucks lmao. Abuse also includes controlling access to structures of dependency (housing, food, money, social webs, children), so a lot of time in the immediate term and often long term it is a MUCH better value proposition to stay with abusers in the hope that they change.

Idk this is so victim blamey and misunderstanding.

wait, hold up. this looks like an access device. i think someone maybe wouldn’t do this unless someone needed it for tremors, muscle control related disabilities, etc.

the iTunes Store app on your iPhone should let you buy ringtones! in the … /More menu at the bottom, then “Tones”.

edit: good god the selection there is bottom of the barrel. good luck!

Most people don’t have time to fritter on new tech, alt clients, etc. Honestly they’re not stupid and I resent the implication–Reddit’s just predatory. If we want an alternative to flourish, we gotta stop treating it like its a “smart people club” and being elitist about it

That is NOT what I said. I’m not going to criticize people leaving, and I think it’s the best option GIVEN an option. It’s a very exclusive strategy that I don’t want to be endorsing. Obviously electoral politics are broken. Maybe we can use our imagination tho

def def!!! <3

yay!!!

the most sustainable smartphone is the one that you already have

why exactly should i give a shit what nazis think of me? get outta here with your goofy liberal ass

The only way the red states will change is by getting worse and worse. They will have no doctors, teachers, nurses, lawyers, or corporations that will purposefully live or do their work there if they can help it. If you are a woman, a person of color, a migrant, an LGBTQ person, a child, or anything other than an old white man, the red states are no longer safe for you.

ah so if you’re poor, taking care of loved ones, or otherwise unable to move, then your life is acceptable collateral damage? accelerationism has victims.

God that’s an insufferable take, “if you don’t like it, leave without saying anything”? This is one post. A single one! I think speaking my mind is ok, and clearly some folks agree with me here. I think it’s a worthy discussion.

“Ignore and make your own” is honestly the most naive and spineless thing you can say. Imagine acting on that principle IRL, for instance, when people you consider your friends say or do something vile.

I really can’t agree that the name is funny. It affiliates everyone who wants to gather and talk about PCs with so-called “race scientists” who genocide in the name of a so-called “master race”. Can’t imagine wanting to associate with that, but its horrifying that people think it’s politically neutral to do so.

haha you got me! real racists sure do love joking about being proxy racists online :)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_(human_categorization) “master race” is definitionally about race and the use of that social categorization to commit genocide; the concept of race and so-called “race science” are not really funny tbh

i would say the language of “glory” and “master races” have been pretty sufficiently captured by nazis, maybe take a look around you.

:0… okay i can def try that, yea!!!

I agree about the soft language they use and plastics are a BROAD category of materials… but yeah, I like to be cautious around exposing them to heat and using them for long term liquid storage.

i super agree, french press or moka is my target, i just miss the flavor the pressure creates. i’ll figure it out one day!

i think the tritan plastic they’re using in the new models will be interesting, def seems less porous and likely to hang onto bad flavors x_x
