“Significant other”. It’s a stand-in for any partner (boy/girlfriend, husband/wife, commonlaw, fuckbuddy, etc)

Fascism is something to be alarmed about! It’s an existential threat to democracy!

And this is exactly what’s wrong with the Democrats, and why Biden never should’ve run. They’re too comfortable in their big houses with all their money and privilege. They have no fucking idea what it’s like for most Americans, and clearly they don’t care because they’ve never had to. There is no party in the US to fight for regular people, so they didn’t vote.

I got here because my parents fucked.

I despise advertising. I won’t sit through ads telling me I’m missing out, or my life would be much better if only I had x. How much of our lives is spent listening to someone try to convince us that we need some product? And somehow they’ve convinced us that wasting our time with their bullshit is ‘normal’. Being marketed to constantly is not normal.

That’s exactly why it’s divisive. They don’t want a functioning democracy.

We’re all from the past.

It could grip it by the scruff!

Against the Storm.

I played a lot back when it came out. I picked up the DLC on release day and reset my progress. Such a good game. Even when I’m not playing (like now) I’m thinking and reading up on strategies.

I’ll allow it.

I run NoScript, which blocks all JavaScript. I manually allow websites as I need it. It blocks all kinds of annoying nonsense while I browse.

Because I already bought the game. Why should I have to pay more based on where I play it? That’s ridiculous. If I buy it, I should be able to play it how and where I want.

Yikes, kinda expensive on mobile. I already repackaged it from my Steam copy and side-loaded it on to my phone so I’ll stick with that. It would be nice if I could keep my progress from one to the other though.

That’s because you only ever dealt with them from the employee’s side. They contribute to the good of the company/organization. Sometimes that also means good for the employee, but that’s just coincidence.

I try to avoid it because it dilutes your actual point. They’re filler words, that are sometimes used for actual emphasis, but mostly just said out of habit and really don’t mean anything at all.

Besides, if you rarely swear, it makes it even more powerful when you actually fucking mean it.

If you can do calligraphy ahead of the words coming out of your mouth then I am thoroughly impressed.

Is she a sexy lookin hatchback you couldn’t wait to get in the back of too?

I jumped in with both feet this winter. I’d finally had enough of MS’s bullshit and couldn’t bear to use Win11. I built a new system and installed Mint and I’m loving it. I’ve only had very minor issues with the system itself or with gaming on Steam or Heroic.

How do you think most if the world affords eye glasses? Do you honestly think millions of poor Indian people pay the ridiculous prices they charge us?

No, of course they don’t. The problem is that the market is owned by one company and they pretty much charge whatever they want.

And here you are defending their exorbitant prices.
