No.

“We’re cancelling the woke Dagobah agenda!”
- Comment on How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals 1 week ago:
Because conservatism is fundamentally based on fear.
- Comment on This is not a stereogram. If you look at it a certain way it will not resolve into anything. 2 weeks ago:
As I child, I always cheated and crossed my eyes to make these work, and saw them as a child—concave and unintelligible. Now that I am a man I finally learned to discard childish ways and trigger these properly by staring off into the far distance and tuning out all the stress of the modern world.

Been using voyager on iOS since nearly day 1. Seems fine. Might be better ones out there.
- Comment on Doesn't the need for a permit fundamentally contradict the US's ideals of free speech? 2 weeks ago:
As more of conceptual response of why this is generally practiced and legal under our system of governance: an individual’s freedom of speech is not the express demand that everyone else must or need listen to said speech.
- Comment on I diagnose you with dystopia 2 weeks ago:
I am curious, does this monthly fee simply enable access to doctors that you then have to give additional money to? If so what is the out of pocket cost? Does it cover hospital stays? Does it cover medication? Or is all of that extra and out of pocket?
I’m only asking because I have insurance. And it is significantly more per month. And it basically covers nothing other than the invented prices of medical care hospitals charge.
A usual statement of benefits I get from my insurance is:
Hospital billed $20,303 for service but we (insurance) only accept a bill of $3798 for this service so we paid them $1000 for the service and you, (our beloved customer) ~only~ pay the difference so please pay the hospital $2798 for the blood test they mistakenly coded.
Does that happen with Amazon? Or are y’all paying $8/ month and 1) getting charged full cost at hospitals / clinics Or 2) just paying $8/month?
(In case it wasn’t obvious I’m in the US and no, I am not exaggeration on my example or being sarcastic, I am genuinely curious)

You clearly have never been to a hospital

Neat, you posted a Wikipedia article about how animals will at times associate with one another.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Most every animal species? Fun fact, they nearly all, at an individual level, die very quickly.
Sorry to say that as a human, you’re hard wired to engage with nearly every being on this planet as though it is sentient and beloved, because we’re a bunch of dumbasses.

It’s not? It allows hotter at the top of mountain. That is why volcanos are.

Could’ve taken five seconds to alter the image so that it actually said “beetle” instead of responding to every comment trying to explain your joke.
Truly a failure of a shitpost.

Andor is probably the best thing to come of Disney Star Wars. If that quality persists I am very excited. If that quality does not persist still a win: more Star Trek.
I just hope whatever form it takes we lose the bizarrely shoehorned-in fictional culture of having a “number one” (literally only Picard used that nickname for Riker back in the day) and the equally annoying and cringey creation of the captain of the ship having a “go to warp” catchphrase.
- Comment on If Trump and Biden both died today, what would happen? 4 months ago:
This would mean nothing because the electoral college exists. Likely all the red states would opt for the Republican candidate and blue for the Democratic candidate.
- Comment on What could be wrong with me? 4 months ago:
Quick answer: talk to a medical professional—could be any myriad of things going on but seriously: cognitive changes are not best diagnosed by asking strangers on the least-used social media platform available. To reiterate: talk to a medical professional.
