i explained to my mom that the cops spontaneously dying when they come in contact with fent is them doing the drugs and everyone making excuses for them and she thought about it for a minute and went, "yeah that makes way more sense"
- don't bring your phone
- seriously, don't bring your phone
- don't post, and don't bring your phone
- the FBI can just show up to your door if you bring your phone
Some protesting tips:
- use signal (w/ disappearing messages if things get dicey)
- be in contact w/ at least 1 person who will NOT be at the same protest as you
- turn off fingerprint/faceid
- be smart about when/what you post

remember when we elected a guy on doing a good covid response and now we have no covid response. just deathmarching everyone at the whims of the private sector rn lol
Petition to let disabled people write cyberpunk. โWhat if my arm was a gunโ is not an interesting question. โWhat if I had to pay a monthly licensing fee to use my limbsโ is.
she knows a lotta cops and also has been doing drugs her entire life and understands there's no magic powder that people are doing recreationally that when you're near it it makes you die instantly
"what's the point of going to a protest if i can't post about it" brain has gone too far. do not bring your private-sector mandated and government supported tracking device to the protest. full stop
treating radicalization like a mystical mind virus that can be uploaded to people by reading the wrong thing instead of a complicated series of failures by society at every single turn has led us to this point and i don't see people changing their tune any time soon
This is why things like the Buffalo shooter manifesto shouldn't be shared. Well-meaning people who aren't savvy about trolling, both left and right, can easily radicalize themselves by finding even one thing in a manifesto that resonates with them. It can happen to anyone.
Not only do I believe EBT should cover hot foods from grocery stores, you should also be able to use EBT at restaurants. Because honestly, a lot of times itโs cheaper and time saving, rather than buying all the ingredients and doing it yourself.
they found all the motherfuckers from the capitol riots and they'll find you real fast, you can see the heatmap of where these people went and what they did after on the internet somewhere. do not bring your phone! it is a snitch! leave it at home!
not gonna dunk on this dude, mostly because he has the guts to say the quiet part loud. respect. this is exactly the same stance that every handwringing liberal is trying to triangulate, but in a way that doesn't get them yelled at on here.
literally just read or watch any of it. if you see anyone going "what if my arm was a gun???" i'll give you $20. meanwhile i can name at least 5 fucking stories that have that exact premise she's talking about in them already.
@withinashes19
as someone who's had several panic attacks (an agitated state of extreme emotional duress) no they're fucking not. they're going catatonic and acting like they've seen the people who they've scraped off the sidewalk from an OD
i love how rightoids can get on here and say whatever, which could be easily disproven by a 5 minute study of matt groening, his politics, or even the show itself, the simpsons
It's funny how many people are confused about the politics of shows like the Simpsons
It's about an intact churchgoing family with a stay-at-home mom where all major conflicts are resolved in the family unit
But they say naughty words so they must be left-wing
in fact most of the time that's really more of a background element because it's so well trod and explored that capitalism wants to chop up your body and sell it back to you with a licensing fee that most authors have moved on to way more interesting subjects than that!
if you take a photo or a video and have cloud backup turned on, guess what, the powers that be can access the information attached to that, including the time of day, temperature, position on GPS, and more! if they decide being somewhere was a crime after the fact, it's your ass!
if your phone does not have a removable battery or you are lugging around a faraday cage case you cannot, in any way, stop it from pinging towers, which records your device ID and therefore your movements, even if less precise than "location on."
hell i regularly criticize cyberpunk for leaning too much on the ship of theseus thing. ghost in the shell answered that in 1992, again in 1995, and again 2002 -> 2005. it's 2022. please spend less time wondering if a manmade body makes you less "you", the answer is you're you.

EXECUTIVE ON PHONE: We need someone who's aged specifically age 25-34 and used the internet a lot 10 years ago to decode this for us.
shit like this is why these dudes stick to doing culture war shit btw. he encounters a working class person for the first time and has to pick himself off the floor. decides he'd rather spend the rest of his life cornering some pre-weeping SJW on a college campus to "debate"
@kenklippenstein
congress proving once again if we all set aside our differences for just a little bit and come to the table to negotiate in good faith we can, in fact, make the world an even worse place
i feel like the democrats would probably be a lot better on covid if they weren't in power. they were certainly far more effective at delivering it as the minority in the senate than they have been on even footing
if this story (about replacing your body, bit by bit or wholesale, with mechanical parts, until you're no longer sure if you're even the same you you were when you started) is so cliched then imagine pretending "what if you got charged $5/month for your arms" is groundbreaking
i personally think an altogether more interesting (and currently prescient + horrific with COVID and all going on) is the idea of Nanomachine Rejection from VA-11 Hall-A. everyone is infested with nanomachines in glitch city, and .01% of the population just rejects them and dies
the funniest thing about keffals is she absolutely namesearches on here constantly. so you can be like "wow, keffals should consider maybe getting a real job" and you know she'll see it 100%
opening my standup routine by going on stage, picking someone out of the crowd, asking them if they have a pet and if they do, threatening to go to their house and eat it for the next 48 hours uninterrupted. going down a list of recipes and ingredients i can use.
considering we live in an era where you basically have to get a vaccine to go out in public at all now, the fact that there is an infinitesimal portion of the population that will one day just die from going outside that everyone just kinda has to accept is weirdly relevant rn!
"i'm happy and married and i have a family and a bunch of friends over to party and watch the big game with us" is actually a very understandable desire/fantasy and i think you're some weird space alien
@MrTooDamnChris
thank god we gutted labor standards and the entire deliveryboy profession so that you could have this opportunity to make $3.50 an hour carrying like 300 pounds worth of stuff. 5 waters? awful.
i need people to understand the restaurant industry: as with everything, costs are determined by raw materials + the cost of labor. if you do the labor yourself, you save money. it's just a fact. people will come up with any excuse to rely on exploited workers rather than DIY.
@Logo_Daedalus
@loveandbarley1
just like them being lame virgins in your measurement doesn't change the fact that they sell their labor for wages from a shop owner even if you find the work they do somehow un-proletarian?
every time i see people posting about "revolution" on twitter is hilarious. people are so fixated and fascinated on the idea of libidinal violence, but they do not see they are a million miles away from the conditions needed to bring it about.
twitter has taught me the entire idea of intersectionality is letting people choose who can un-problematically target a SA survivor in crisis the day after it happened and harass her for months until she wants to commit suicide. i'm learning so much
@Zach_Graumann
doesn't mainstreaming them imply that normal people can afford them, something which is not the case with the tesla, you know, by design? other manufacturers make cheaper EVs by now which are more practical than teslas.
you don't decide to shoot up a neighborhood because you read some nihilist nazi cringe bullshit just like leftists don't go out and start executing factory owners just because people post guillotines every time their standards of living slip further, yet do nothing else.
@rachelmillman
thank god it's one of those things you gotta talk to an actual doctor to get done, but yeah for a long time i've had to watch incredibly uninformed people posting about this and going "boy am i glad you're not in charge of anyone's health" and not even speaking up about it lol

i think this is the first time they've ever seen how the entire rest of the world looks at guys like this, and depicted on television no less. rules so much. sorry this is what we all see!

you just gotta make sure to mix in some "drinks from the hose hit different fr" and "[picture of a chair] who tf remembers these?! they were so comfy back in the day"

my old cat could get into the fridge, he was a terror. he would fit his paw up under the door and sort of wedge it open.
Well, I thought I had a way through bullet proof glass, and I didn't. If you don't hear from me, it's true I tried attacking the whales at Seaworld, and it'll mean I was either taken off the internet, Seaworld Security got me, or they sent the regular fish while
we're just inventing pet abuse out of thin air now to justify... harassing someone and threatening to kill and eat their pet. pigs can have as many beers as they want, it's a free country
