give it a few months, they’re working up to it.

I believe it was Switch that originally supposed to be Trans in the movie. They would be a man in the “Real World” and in the Matrix they would be a woman. But it was 1999 and Warner Bros nixed it.

I can’t find the story for the life of me right now but I’m pretty sure there was one a few months back where someone was talking with an LLM about their depression and suicide and the LLM essentially said “yeah you should probably do it.” because to the LLM, that was the best solution to the problem.

to sum up in one word “hopeful”. Things were getting good. it was still the fairly early days of the internet and while speeds for the majority of people weren’t great honestly unless you were in college on a T1 line you didn’t know any better. you had IRC, ICQ, AOL IM, Forums, etc so you met and talked to interesting people and friends from the world over. you expressed yourself and found people with similar interests via geocities, livejournal and/or myspace.

Technology was progressing rapidly and new opportunities were opening up. Suddenly you could make a living building said Geocities sites or designing things on your computer. It was a fun time, a lot of cool and interesting things were happening and it felt like things could only go up from there. So yeah, we were hopeful for the future.

to piggy back off this over the past year I’ve done just that. I’ve switched to all European and Canadian companies or just straight up FOSS stuff for my services.

The soundtrack for it was so good. and yeah it’s by far my favourite NES game.

Well lets see I wonder what the reason for this could be. Could it be the deal we signed with Greeland on Thursday? Could it be the 2.5bil US companies owe us on Monday? Could it be the fact they murdered one of our Citizens? gee which one could it be?

Fuck em and fuck that country. I hate Nazi’s and it makes my stomach churn that I have to live above a nation full of them.

My parents have dual Canadian and US citizenship I’m desperately trying to get them to back here to Canada. I’m really worried about them right now because any day now ICE or someone could tell them their US Citizenship means jack shit.

I’ve blocked the .ml instance so I wouldn’t know.

The drives too long for your average US Citizen. at least that was the common excuse on the other site. “Drive is too long to DC” or “I have a job that’s tied to my medical insurance” Best they could do was ONE day of protest. On a Saturday.

because the ultra wealthy can’t cook, can’t produce the stuff needed to cook, can’t build super cars or private jets or build mansions, they can’t make the latest high tech gadgets, they can’t produce the most stylish of clothes or expensive watches. That’s why they keep us around. They need us plebs to make them stuff and produce their wealth to purchase the shit we make.

older than 10 years, more like 12 or 13. I remember arguing about this damn dress at the ad agency I was working at in 2012.

there’s such a painfully obvious agenda over there with the admins. I got a 7 day ban for knocking russians and saying “slava ukraini” then I got a perm ban a week after that for posing the question “how long until an average citizen with an AR decides to deal with ICE themselves?” because apparently both times I was “inciting violence against a minority” because Russians and ICE agents, according to Reddit, are minorities
