Don’t join the felon’s defenders. We’re in this deep in part because people dismiss what they don’t want to believe from him as jokes.
The insurrectionist is telling us his crimes. Bragging about them even. He’s proud of them.

We’re ignoring the constitution already.
14th Amendment. Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
The man is an adjudicated insurrectionist. Congress just ignored their duty.
So yes, there “are” protections. Said protections are simply being ignored.

I wear a vest often. The point for me is pockets. Lots of pockets.
My normal pants are pocketless and shirts don’t come with anything beyond a tiny little thing that can’t hold a pen well. The vest isn’t too hot for indoors, helps insulate more outdoors, and has huge pockets.
- Comment on No evaluation? No problems! 3 weeks ago:
I have had multiple comments that I likely have ADHD. One asked if I had something else common I forget what.
My answer is maybe. I don’t exactly go to the doctor. I know I should, but I’m generally healthy and don’t want to spend $200 every couple months to be told what I already know.
And it really bothers me when people claim something because they think the label is cool/trendy/some sort of thing to be proud of. Man I didn’t do anything but be born. Feels like something to be neutral of when you’re born with it. I didn’t earn anything. I take no meds. I have no diagnosis. Who am I to claim I have something when I’m undiagnosed and could end up just adding to a trend of claiming something just because it grants me bragging rights or something? I want people who need help to be able to get help, not be drowned out by undiagnosed people like me claiming they have something making it harder to see who actually needs help and who want to be in the cool club.
I function fine with just ibuprofen now and then. So thanks in advance to anyone who’d say to go get diagnosed, but I’m in the United Corporations of America. I’ll stick with my on the shelf pain drug, caffeine, and copium. Helps me pay for other things easier.
I rambled. Good meme. Got me thinking again.

Modern United States residents across political spectrums all agree that we should allow billionaires to do anything they want, and not let silly laws or constitutions get in the way of that.
Except some dude named Luigi.

I’ll be doing what I do every day. Enjoy myself and pamper the kittyat day, play with online friends and pamper the kitty at night.
Having a companion animal helps. Sorry for the loss of your dog. Is it too soon to bring in another companion?

Idk but I picked the instance for the sense of humor in the name either way.
My brain pronounces it as the latter, though the extra jokes make it better.

Maybe get a fine for .0005% of their net worth. You know, so they don’t do it again.
That’s how it works, right?

Any way to purchase the series instead? I canceled Netflix when they added a subscription tier that shows ads to people who pay.
I don’t want to support a streaming service whose customers are advertisers instead of viewers.

Yes, because he can do anything he wants and just declare legal.
There is no punishment for this supervillain. His cult makes sure of that.

I am not a politically-minded person. All these names and legalese questions and policies confuse and bore me.
I voted for Harris yesterday. If I can gather the willpower to vote Harris and help a prosecutor stop a felon from becoming a king, all of you other not-normally-voter types can do it.
We can do it, people!

Yes I’m aware. I’m saying that IF it were an actual thing, it would not be surprising at all considering the extent of invasive, non-consentual data collection and selling that happens all over the place these days.
- Comment on Protect Your Dick Data 3 months ago:
Genuinely though, it would not surprise anymore. We have subscription based cars selling your info to insurance companies, retroactively ammended purchase experiences everywhere, and every dang app and website harvesting as much info on you as physically possible no matter how mundane.
Dick info reporting toilets would not at all catch me by surprise at this point.

If that’s what it is them that’s awesome. I want to be able to see a company do something that sounds like a good thing without that back of the mind thought of ‘what are they up to…’
Steam being actually based would be great.
- Comment on Had to read it 3 times to make sure 4 months ago:
Found in the comments on Steam. On one hand, I love that Steam is going in the opposite direction of literally every other company. On the other hand, it does seem like it’s not being done to be good guys.
It still was a nice surprise to see “btw no forced arbitration”.

Different people react to different things. It takes many approaches to reach multiple types of humans.
I personally reacted after months of being shown hypocrisy, with the tipping point being when I said there’s no problem with eggs and dairy before I was shown what the egg and dairy industries do.
Part of that process was really realizing, not just knowing but consciously thinking about and considering the fact that humans are also meat. I am meat. The cats I loved were meat. My human family is meat. It’s not okay to eat them in a sandwich. Why is it okay to eat strangers in a sandwich?
No one approach will work on every human, and many people take a lot of different approaches over time to really understand.

Vegan is a philosophy, not a diet. The word you’re looking for is plant-based, not vegan.
A vegan wouldn’t buy leather shoes or woolen sweaters. Someone on a plant-based diet would.

I like how it says the two options are to switch browsers or find a new adblocker.
And switch browsers is suggested first.
And “just accept the ads” is not even an option.
Good on that writer.
