- Comment on American workers are getting the smallest slice of the pie on record 14 hours ago:
This is greatly infuriating, actually.
- Comment on If you were looking for one image that explains the american economy, this would be it 4 days ago:
The good news is that there is a clear solution: Unionize and strike again.

Mobile gaming chair
- Comment on I hate Android! 1 month ago:
In the version I have (on my Samsung A37) I can exempt certain apps from power management. So that’s nice.
I still have some complaints about it, but that particular issue has an answer at least.
- Comment on What happened to the Dem Party in America? It's kind of like once Kamala lost, which they deserved, and lost congress. They ran like a dog with its tail between its legs instead of fighting? 4 months ago:
The thing about that is the main Democrat establishment hates that type of candidate and tolerates Republicans by comparison, so in such a race, the Democrat party actively sabotages the leftist candidates. That’s why Bernie runs as an independent - the Democrat party would not support him and actively sabotaged his attempt to run for president in 2016. The Democrat party also attempted to sabotage Mamdani’s run for mayor of NYC, but they were unable to stop him from winning anyways, despite their opposition. So, maybe the dam is starting to crack and we will see more cases like that. The party will fight it tooth and nail the whole way, though. They would much rather have Republicans in power than leftists.

They’re more afraid of leftists than they are of MAGA. They more or less threw the 2024 election on purpose rather than move an inch to the left, and then after losing, they figured they can just lie low and blame all the destruction on the Republicans, claiming that they were completely powerless.
- Comment on Ex-Overwatch Director Says Tracer's Butt Was Never "Nerfed" 4 months ago:
If I remember correctly, the controversy was not over changing her model, but in changing a victory pose that highlighted that part of her model. So they nerfed how much she showed off her butt, basically.

If the recreational use improves your mood, isn’t that a medical purpose too?
- Comment on This is your brain on drugs 4 months ago:
Is the line you draw based on the intent of the user or the intent of the provider?
Like, for instance, if someone with ADHD uses caffeine to help them focus better, is that medication? Or, if someone tries a hallucinogen with the intention of opening their mind, is that medication?

I can certainly vouch for amphetamines*.
*in controlled amounts for people with ADHD

Or best, depending on your preference. ;)
- Comment on The Iranians HAVE to realize that demanding the release of the unredacted Epstein files as a condition to re-open the strait of Hormuz is probably the strongest card they have right now... 5 months ago:
When I say Democrats here what I mean is the party leaders and the politicians who align with them (that is, the vast majority of them). There can be individuals who run as Democrats who don’t align with the party, but the party leadership is actively against them. For instance, Zohran Mamdani’s run was opposed by Democrat party leadership. He’s more of an independent than a true Democrat.

Because Democrats are complicit in everything that Republicans do. Democrats exist to create the appearance of opposition, while in reality both parties serve the interests of the wealthy. Uncovering the wealthy class’s depraved deeds does not serve those interests, which is why neither party really wants that.

OP is wrong about one thing: They’re not happy.
- Comment on Is it actually healthy for people to have a place to confess things anonymously? 5 months ago:
I think that it is probably good. On the other hand, I don’t think that you necessarily need to build something specifically for that purpose because the internet was basically built from the ground up with anonymity in mind. Some of the internet has moved away from that, but there’s still plenty of capability for people to be anonymous if they want to be.

I suppose that’s probably a way of calling them a baby?

Nah, I like PC gaming too much to want that. What I want is to just to be free of capitalism.

Do you feel well-rested after that much sleep?
- Comment on MAGA, splitting hairs. 9 months ago:
I would just call him a child rapist. IMO that actually sounds worse than “pedophile” because you could apply the latter to someone who was attracted to minors but didn’t rape any.
Regardless of his attraction, he raped children, so he’s a child rapist.

- Comment on Are Memoirs and Autobiographies partly fictional? How the f do people remember so much detail? 9 months ago:
It definitely varies between people as well. For instance, my sister (with no genetic relation to me) has much better memory than me, which seemed almost superhuman to me when I was growing up. Although, I have since realized that my memory is much worse than average, to the extent where I probably have one or more memory disorders. I’m sure that some people have memory that is much better than average, whether or not my sister is one of them.

The word “Copper” is clearly edited in as well, so it’s probably covering a ring made by a different material.
