because seven ate nine through twenty-three

wait so the people doing the work don’t get paid and the people who get paid steal from others?

that is just so uncharacteristic of capitalism, what a surprise

“unlike u snowflakes i am not so easily triggered”

“HOW DARE U CALL ME HOMOPHOBIC I HAD SEX WITH TWO MEN!!!”

jesus fuck get a grip

…i know? obviously it’s that, nobody was debating that fact. my point is that the automatic agreement that having sex with men makes you submissive is inherently homophobic.

imagine if instead if the insult was like, “he’s such a woman, i bet he loves cooking, cleaning and looking after republicans!”, I imagine you’d correctly interpret the sexism in there. the original message was homophobic in the same way.

and i don’t care how gay you are or aren’t, you have zero authority to tell people that they’re not allowed to find something discriminatory

you can get a raspberry pi and install something called pihole on it, it’s a DNS server with ad-blocking. basically, it converts a domain name like example.com into an IP address, but rather than just faithfully supply DNS, it also effectively blocks some adverts by acting like the domain names don’t exist for servers that run ads

once it’s set up it’ll just work, and it should protect everyone on your network/wifi from some ads

Yes. I’d highly recommend checking out the 5-4 Podcast episode about Citizen’s United

we’re never going to see an end to the risk of fascism until we end capitalism, and it’s as simple as that.

money is power, and if corporations and individuals can hoard wealth infinitely, it’s only a matter of time until enough of that wealth is accumulated in few enough hands for those few to use their wealth to take control of the state

I saw your reply before it got deleted by the moderator. You are every bit as hateful as a Trump voter. It’s people like you who will gladly watch as LGBTQ+ people get systematically rounded up and put in camps.

you’re not powerless, far from it - but you need to exert your power before 2026 and 2028 if you want your vote to matter.

your power comes from your ability to go on strike and sabotage, not from voting

dude i am literally the furthest left it is possible to get.

“yes i made a homophobic joke” is still not the win you think it is.

“hah, checkmate, i also would have been sexist” isn’t the slam dunk defense you seem to think it is

what the fuck are you talking about? i am not even american, let alone a democrat? stop using the dumbest fucking justification for homophobia i have ever heard. stop the bigotry or fuck off back to reddit.

if it’s not homophobia, can you explain why “sucking dick” and “getting railed” are implied to be embarrassing or otherwise “bad” things for a guy to do?

with this much effortless casual homophobia i’m surprised you’re not a trump supporter

chrome can use their dominant market position to kill all other competing browsers, then they can use their monopoly to kill addons and extensions they don’t like, slow down or break webpages which go against their interests, and so on.

google having a near-complete monopoly on the web scares me more than most issues in tech

i believe all states are evil, to be honest!

some are just actively persuing evil stuff more than others

but given half a chance, capitalists in any country would turn to fascism

ah don’t worry about that, lots of it is online now :3

thank you for the explanation, it was really interesting and in-depth! you should be a teacher!

oh wow, i didn’t realize that, i thought it was infinitely reusable just by melting and re-forming it. thank you really much for the explanation.

what you wrote reminded me of silly putty, it’s really stretchy and elastic to start with, but if you play with it for a while, it starts to be less elastic and breaks apart.

does metal also break down? i’m thinking about like aluminium cans that are used for soda and stuff like that

permenent? can’t plastic get melted down and recycled again?

once i put some plastic container in the dishwasher and it got too hot, it kind of melted a bit. it didn’t totally melt but the lid doesn’t fit anymore.

i dunno if it was injection molded though
