I’d love for the Dems to start acting like an actual opposition party, but they’re owned by the same billionaires and not much has changed in the ten years since the party took a collective shit on Bernie so Hillary Clinton could have “Her Turn” like it was owed to her.
Vote however you want, but you have to do more than just vote if you want anything to change.
Arch w/KDE Plasma desktop, of course.
“Smart” TVs should be kept off the internet and only used as video output for actual computers.
This is obvious when you consider that “Conservatives” are more offended that trans people like myself might use a public restroom than the fact that ICE is running concentration camps and separating families from their children.
I believe you not making a good faith statement there, and instead trying to straw man the perspective you disagree with because your emotional about this and stereotyping people is the easy way out of self reflection. Why the statement is more or less true, I think your heart posture is one of anger, rather than empathy. (I know that’s a very judgy statement, and it could be wrong.)
Literal.
Concentration.
Camps.
For children.
Don’t talk to me about my heart, why isn’t yours bleeding? How dare you call yourself a Christian?
My grandma (God rest her soul) was the sweetest little ol’ church lady you’d ever meet and she’d have whupped my ass in front of the whole congregation on Sunday morning if I expressed even a fraction of your callous disregard for your fellow man.
I look at conservatism as a concept that preserves the experiments that worked
Basically conservatism = traditionalism in my mind.
That’s a progressive perspective on conservatism, and expressing it as such places you further Left than most Democrats in office.
America’s self-described “Conservatives” are mostly christian nationalists who don’t seek to conserve key American traditions like multiculturalism, but rather to impose their moral ideals on those who they see as “degenerates” in society and would gladly cut off their noses if it would spite the faces of those they see as “other”.
This is obvious when you consider that “Conservatives” are more offended that trans people like myself might use a public restroom than the fact that ICE is running concentration camps and separating families from their children.
Actually Conservative Christians are anti-Capitalists that care most about serving the needy and destitute and look down on the wealthy for their lack of charity. The self-proclaimed christians who voted a pedophile into office do not seek to conserve tradition, merely to preserve their own social status.
And there’s another one for my block list.
I haven’t had a job that should exist since I was a tutor in college. Every position since then was either a fake busywork job, or tech support for people in fake busywork jobs. =/
If it’s flashable and the community support is good enough then this might be my next device. Will have to check on it once the community drops support for my ancient secondhand phone. XD
Our planet is scifi as hell. We’ve got natural magnetic shielding to protect our UV-blocking ozone layer from solar winds. This planet is so damn cozy<3
Absolutely. Life got more complicated after I accepted my weird enby self, but it’s been good. Much less pressure to conform to ill-fitting stereotypes. =D
You’re telling me, I figured myself out at age 11 and immediately went into denial for 25 years. XD
Heck, there’s another item for the list of things I need to learn how to do with a sewing machine, adding pockets to things.
Eh, it’s not just BBQ tho. Houston is America’s most international city and you can find restaurants serving cuisines from around the world all fighting tooth and nail to prove thselves against the competition. The Cajun, Tex-Mex, and Southwest American food is amazing. Some of the best Greek, Thai, and Indian I’ve ever tried, the only fancy Irish pub I’ve ever tried (try the Guiness Stew at McGonigals Mucky Duck), not to mention almost everything else from late-night Italian delivery to a literal Russian bar to an Ethiopian eatery. Want Phó, a street taco, sushi, and a slice of pizza after watching the game at a sports bar? They’re all just minutes away and they’re all great!
