I have a friend who literally does draw a penis on everything she signs. As far as I know, nobody cares enough to challenge her about it.

I don’t think one has to be the last to learn a thing in order to be able to realize how pointless learning it was.

It wouldn’t have passed if those 81 Dems had voted against it. Let’s not excuse the DNC for their complicity by pretending it was unavoidable.

I’ll take the imperialist extraterrestrials, they’re probably gonna be easier to mobilize humans in opposition against than the terrestrial imperialists we have now.

The “risk” that the executives will become working class and have to get a normal job. The horror!

Have you (rhetorical you) seen the ridiculously boring and shallow shit that people watch nearly 24/7 now, though? Video platforms are filled with useless nonsense and people eat it up.

There are people who will have a show playing in the background every hour of the day, showing the “news” or soap operas or reality shows or game shows or movie reruns or etc etc, just soaking it up subconsciously forever until they die.

Go to any doctors office or bar or restaurant (in the US, anyway, maybe it’s different elsewhere) and there’s a high chance they’ll also be playing some nonsense drivel on a dozen TVs strategically positioned so you can’t sit anywhere in the place without being subjected to a view of one.

Society loves giving attention to the most inane shit available, even if just for background noise.

The idea of there being an audience for the early years of the Truman Show doesn’t seem at all like an unfathomable stretch to me.

For what it’s worth, lanolin is not vegan, despite the pictured ad claiming it’s ethically sourced and implying that animals are not harmed. Lanolin is produced from wool, and if you care about such things, often a result of unpleasant (to say the least) farming conditions for sheep. Probably there are some sources that aren’t so bad, but apparently there are reports that wool industry practices are pretty horrific to the sheep. (Read more here and here if you like.)

On the positive side though, there are plant-based lanolin alternatives, including vegan nipple creams. I couldn’t find any source that weren’t also ads for a product, so I’ll leave the search up to whoever is interested in them.

I’ve been thinking about this often lately as well. These fucking corporations with multiple billions at their disposal, and all they can produce is shit like Windows or macOS? AND it also costs money to use? AND it has ads in it?

Meanwhile a bunch of nerds working for free on a passion project are giving away software that is faster and easier to use and often more beautiful to look at.

I guess I’ve simply reiterated what the post image said, so ignore me maybe, but fuck this is depressing and disappointing. All these corporate resources and all they can do is barely achieve what other people do for free in their spare time? What a fucking waste of human life and energy is capitalism.

I think I’d just bring extra food the next day so both I and they can eat. Clearly someone isn’t able to bring their own food for whatever reason, and I can’t really blame them for choosing to eat when the alternative is starving, even if it is annoying that I missed my lunch that day.

How would you determine who is “objectively bad” without introducing subjective bias in the process of determination?

Yeah I realize they are trolling, and my reply isn’t for them. Displaying solidarity for my uterus-having comrades.

since you decided

So glad to hear that you are supportive of people’s autonomy to make decisions, that’s an important value to have. Since you support them making a decision to take action that could result in beginning a pregnancy, you’ll also support that autonomy when they make another decision later to end a pregnancy. Isn’t it great when we have ethical consistency in our views? Congratulations!

What a uselessly privileged comment. You can’t possibly be making it in good faith, but on the off chance you really are that removed from reality:

Suggesting that a 97 year old person should “just move, bro” is ridiculous. It’s a ridiculous suggestion for most people, regardless of age; most people are way too poor to hire a ride-share every day, or pick up and move their whole life at a whim.

Yeah! How dare people object to the symbols of their ideology being coopted by the very forces their ideology opposes. Do you hear yourself? 🙄

Could you elaborate what you mean by “doesn’t have Wayland”?

Krita works fine on Wayland (I just finished using it to scribble out a comic strip, in fact), but is there something specific you’re finding that is broken?

Ah yeah that sounds really frustrating. I’m sure you’ve tried this already, but does Lineage have support for the one-handed mode gesture? I’ve had that come in handy (no pun intended) now and then.

I read somewhere that the Thunderbird team was working on fixes for the new drawer UI, here’s hoping they take better accessibility in mind!

I’m not having any issues using it with one hand so far. Not even sure what is very different about the UI beyond a different icon set and the account switcher being fewer taps to get to. I’m curious what about the new app makes it hard for you? Maybe there’s something highly annoying that I haven’t run across yet.

shitting on the leftwing candidate

What left wing candidate are you referring to? I don’t see any.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but for some reason the solution wasn’t showing as deleted for me when I looked at the linked post:

That’s a pretty vague question; what kind of NSFW “stuff” are you looking to post?

However, if you’re talking about art, then Slushe is a fairly nice NSFW art site (though it may be abandoned by it’s creators, last blog activity was over a year ago) that varied artists post plenty of stuff regularly.
