  Halloween is a Celtic holiday that was changed by the Catholics and brought to America via Irish immigrants, then further corrupted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get over yourself⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  We need to go back to when men were men.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨for future fireflies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The leaves will help, but also, reduce light pollution (if at all possible)

  A great example of correlation and causation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Additionally Spotify pays them shit. A number of artists have done “pay what you want” including 0 for their music on Bandcamp, they all reported making more money in a week than multiple months of Spotify.

  You are also assuming I don’t find other ways to support artists, like merch, shows, patreon and Bandcamp.

  Listenbrainz and chosic work great for me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never said pirate. You are assuming.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bandcamp or many artists have digital purchase options on their website.

  If you can’t purchase it online you could do physical media.

  Otherwise you can find other ways to get the music and support artists in other ways. Shows, merch and patreons usually go directly to artists.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I use both listenbrainz and chosic for suggestions. Both work well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I stopped using it. I have a navidrome server I run and purchase songs from artists directly when possible, otherwise, I acquire them and support artists directly in other ways

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Laser ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you can’t make a joke that does offend people, it’s a skill issue. Turns out, you actually aren’t funny you are just a bully.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Intelligent Design⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The Christian religion regards God as infallible. So if his designs aren’t perfect either we weren’t designed by him or he isn’t infallible, which breaks Christian doctrine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From Snoop Dogg to Lap Dogg⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I recognize this is a meme, but is there an actual citation on where and when he said this? I want to hate him for it, but I also want to do my due diligence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From Snoop Dogg to Lap Dogg⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Snoop turned into a fucking pussy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The internet kind of sucks right now⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Self hosting is the way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LinkedIn Joins Meta and YouTube in Abandoning Policies Designed to Counter Anti-Trans Hate⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  None of them ever really supported trans people, they just thought it was profitable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They made his car "cease & desist"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am unsure how reminding people that the car can be remotely disabled is a good marketing stunt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts sales⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Game pass might be the best deal in gaming, but you are selling your soul to the devil for it. It will ultimately harm gaming, especially developers long term. We should reject game pass.
