Good, keep forming unions and keep making them shut down facilities. They’re shitty places to work and fund a shitty human being, who funds other shitty human beings.

And dog murderer, don’t forget dog murderer.

press send on that post that you felt wasn’t of enough substance to be worth anyone’s time.

I feel like you vastly underestimate the amount of subpar shitposts I’m capable of composing (and then thinking better of) in a given day.

I take one issue with this, just one.

“They can’t be everywhere”

See, that may have held up in the 1930s and 40s, but we live in the country with the most robust surveillance apparatus on the globe. And almost every one of us carries around a fun little brick full of privacy violations with us, everywhere we go, absorbing everything we do and say and buy, and packages it neatly into a form ad agencies and the government can use how they like. And one of those little bricks we call smartphones, why, not only do we carry them around willingly, they’re almost a necessity to get anything done in the modern era. We have surveillance that the Gestapo would’ve had wet dreams about. And, more, all of the largest tech corporations and their techbro CEOs – Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, etc. – are only too happy to kiss the ring and give them unfettered access. To say nothing of the countless other devices spying on you – Ring doorbells selling your data to police departments comes to mind. License plate scanners – even if your car doesn’t spy on you (which, if it was made in the last decade, it almost certainly does to some extent). Your desktop computer has been backdoored by Intel’s management engine or AMD’s PSP for well over a decade – if you don’t think they’ve built in backdoors for the government, I’ve got a bridge to sell you. They can strongarm any company in the world they want, especially ones owned and operated in the US, do you really think they haven’t quietly taken them aside and demanded hardware-level access to every computer made in the last 20 years? With how much the people at the NSA would have wet dreams about that? Yeah, no.

I’m not saying it’s necessarily hopeless. But there will be no Anne Franks hiding in the attic if it comes to that point. They can, in fact, be everywhere, and if the hammer falls it’s going to fall hard and fast, there will be no long continuous search for undesirables across the countryside.

If you want my advice? do as much sketchy-looking shit as possible while not actually doing anything illegal. Use a VPN. Look up Kali and Tails and download them to a Ventoy flash drive. Run I2P (even Tor – but preferably I2P) on your computer. Get Signal. Download the simple sabotage manual, expedient homemade firearms, etc. Do everything in your power to make them look as closely at a complete nothing as possible, and destroy their signal to noise ratio – and tell your friends to, as well. They can collect mountains of data on everyone, certainly, and we can’t really stop that now; but it still takes humans to sift through (AI cannot, yet, do that for them with any meaningful accuracy) – make them look for their needle in an ever-increasing haystack.

Ice cream, soup (add crackers and let them soften, if you want), possibly noodles.

One snack food you can eat without chewing, goldfish crackers. One or two at a time, just let them soak up saliva in your mouth and soften before swallowing.

Certain hard candy, as long as you don’t suck on them too hard. Think peppermints, something that’ll make you salivate (which will help it dissolve without having to suck on it too aggressively – you do not want dry socket). Also, any other soft candy that’ll dissolve, like York peppermint patties, might be okay.

Sure, but not everyone carries around a cross for just such an occasion. Everyone’s got their fists on them, though (well, unless you’re an amputee – in that case, bite Nazis.)

“straight-arm gesture”

is there any reputable, major news outlet that knows how to call a spade a spade? Or is all journalism dickless, now?

d i s c o m b o b u l a t e

yes, and it’s one he would prefer didn’t exist.

share it with your friends!

if I may interject with a suggestion going forwards, I usually add one of these to a comment when I’m being a smartass

then again you may find it funnier to omit that, I’m not your dad, do what you want.

Following several arrests and extraditions, it was concluded that the then-41-year-old Dr. was “mentally unfit to stand trial” by a London psychiatrist, and prior to the trial, had been witnessed wearing condoms on his nose, carrying a cardboard box, and other extremely odd behaviors that diverted him from prison to London’s Mausley Hospital.

Now, I’m not saying he was normal. But uh… carrying a cardboard box is an “extremely odd behavior”? By that metric, almost anyone could qualify for a cot in the mental ward.

if it’s higher than $60, R* can lick my taint.

in fact, if the online is as ridden with issues as 5’s online has been, I’ll probably just pirate it. Why would I want to pay $60+ just so I can get squeezed for even more money via microtransactions; and having to pay even more for a mod menu, just to exist in a server without being hassled? Fuck that with a rusty fork.

Everyone on Lemmy is a bot except you.

Seconded

I just hope Trump’s senior moments don’t get us all killed. I mean, his lucid thoughts are bad enough.

“not acting like an insufferable twat”

hexbear

yeah no. Funny, good try, but no.

This post goes into detail about some of his shenanigans. Short version is he’s a ban-evading right-wing troll who pretended to be a big third party supporter up until the election, and now just regurgitates right wing trash all day.

it was a good few years for fucking around, here’s to a very merry finding out.

fun fact: you can want everyone’s needs to be met while also being allowed to criticize China, Russia, and while not acting like an insufferable twat. Wild, I know.

block hexbear, lemmygrad, and lemmy.ml. And any user named “UniversalMonk” on any instance. You’ll thank me later.
