I keep my dislike of Linux to myself.
Clearly.
- Comment on How tf do people who work 8-5 M-F get any life done? 6 days ago:
The concept of burning vacation / sick time for a doctor’s appointment is weird to me (canada). I just say “hey boss, doc appointment this day” and he says “okay”.
Look, I get that you live in a civilized country, but stop gloating.

Last month, I was looking for advice for burnout.
The advice I found was inevitably “take a leave of absence from work and get a therapist.”
What a sick fucking joke.

Despite the pop-culture association of the concertina with the Golden Age of Piracy, the concertina was invented approximately 100 years after the heyday of piracy in the North Atlantic.
Shiver me timbers. Me whole worldview be built on a lie.

No concertina? It’s like the piratey-est instrument!

- Comment on The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily 3 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t say it is fair, no, but I am defending property taxes an the two aren’t really comparable at all.
You’re defending charging property taxes on spurious grounds. Homeowners already pay for the things you claim as justification for taxing them.
I don’t care what campaign promises harris made. She was a continuation of biden, and that means no promises kept.
- Comment on The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily 3 weeks ago:
You tried to say that the current system where billionaires don’t pay taxes on unrealized income while ordinary homeowners do is a fair arrangement because homeowners use things they pay for in other bills and taxes.
I’d say to stop simping for the worst humans, but I think you’d evaporate if you tried.

Play? You’re always billionaires’ advocate. Water, power, and data have their own separate bills already. Roads are paid for through gas taxes.

Tell me what democrats have fought for with greater perseverance than they fought to make sure netanyahu got his weapons. Because I’ve seen decades of capitulation punctuated with one firm stand with no compromises.
Show me a greater priority of the democratic party. Show me anything else they haven’t backed down on.

If republicans were tankies, centrists would never use it as an insult. They won’t insult the people they admire like that.

Well, opposing genocide doesn’t make you a tankie…
Yet somehow centrists keep saying it anyway.

I already know what you don’t want anyone to ever have to answer for.

Which version do you suppose is more common on lemmy?
- Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this 4 weeks ago:
Sure. I’ve never been willing to drive tanks over anyone, but I get called a tankie all the time by people who really can’t stand it that I say that neither democrats nor republicans have any business supporting genocide.

Must be tough encountering people who don’t like the only thing you like.
- Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this 4 weeks ago:
Why, it’s almost as though the people who scream “tankie!” at every idea to the left they don’t like might have more in common with the fascists than they let on.
- Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this 4 weeks ago:
And then they’ll unironically turn around and be like “bOtH sIdEs” whenever someone suggests that maybe we should have a democratic party that opposes fascists instead of progressives.
- Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this 4 weeks ago:
I’d say it’s because the bar for “tankie” is “anyone who had a problem with selling weapons for genocide.”
