Everything should be more like Pro Publica

I swear to god I think they make it bad on purpose to make us think single payer healthcare sucks

No. In fact. LFG TL

Funny how that keeps both happening and needing to happen. Its almost like founding a country steeped in racism may have consequences and we should restructure basically everything

I have a bachelor of the arts in computer science. Landing that first job was so hard because companies filtered out my resume because they were looking for a bachelor of the sciences. Fuck me I guess for my college mandating I take at least one class a year about how the world works instead of just computer stuff

They have changed. This is pretty typical shit these days. Usually its a calendly link

They understand it. They don’t give a shit. They won’t be around for it

Still. I think it’s a step in the right direction. Maybe it would really incentivize people if there was a small deposit

Sorry to be dragging a comment out of the aether as I read into Hyprland controversies, but its absolutely wild this guy was rude across the span of an entire week about a pretty typical issue request, and then later down the road was like “it was one bad comment I might have been having a bad day” and its like… Dude it was 7 days

Just came across this comment. You got raked across the coals for speaking documentable truth lol

Also re-reading my apology for getting lost in the sauce of my own bias of how I viewed 2022 I realize i might come across as being snarky when legitimately I forgot how that year went for everyone else because I was so frustrated watching both sides in VA say one of the candidates was exactly like Trump. I wasn’t being sarcastic in my prior comment. Legitimately. I goofed up and I’m sorry

Sorry I was living in a state where the DNC was experimenting with what the grand plan would be for 2024 and the result was Trump-lite in a stupid little fleece vest became governor and in the years since Virginia has become a much less safe place to be a person of color, queer, or a woman.

It almost seems possible the democratic leadership might have potentially possibly maybe learned something perhaps and came up with a strategy for how to deal with trump that doesn’t hinge on trying to do the same things that worked in 2020 (and then failed miserably in 2022). Good for them! Maybe next they’ll learn they don’t have to court moderate republican voters to switch sides, and instead focus on the vast swath of Americans who feel so disenchanted with American Politics that they don’t vote, or even really pay attention to politics, because the Democrats are, globally, conservative, and the Republicans are, globally, insane

Good. Good good good. That’s. A relief, tbh

1. You gotta get political news from more sources than here, this place is biased as hell
2. Appalachia is a geographic, socioeconomic, and cultural region of the united States
3. JD Vance claims to be as Appalachian as they come
4. JD Vance is from west of Cincinnati, well outside if Appalachia
5. JD Vance is a carpetbagging piece of shit
6. A carpetbagger is an opportunistic colonial entering the region of the south or Appalachia (context dependent) to make a quick buck exploiting the poor of the region through various forms of grift, theft, and violence

It falls into both Science and Math

I kiss ass so I can get rich while my boss gets richer off me. Perhaps I’ll work harder with a gun in my back for a bowl of rice a day.

I have a former roommate that her reason for not voting is that she doesn’t think it effects her. She thinks she can live an apolitical life because she just doesn’t want to deal with it. Meanwhile she can’t afford anything because our state makes it really hard to get food stamps

Ah. Someone who found what worked for them a long time ago and has developed an expertise in something esoteric. I’m sure we’ll have much to discuss

What distro, terminal emulator, shell, and text editor does this person like? We might have stuff to talk about. If the answers to any of the above are Fedora, XTerm, Bash, or Pico then we have nothing to talk about and I’ll take the wolves
