Afaik it has never worked right. If you properly set your post to English, it would hide your post from everyone who didn’t have a language set (so everyone).
The way it should work is if you don’t have languages set in your profile it should show you all languages. If you do have a language set, it should show you those languages AND undefined.
Then you’d be free to specify the language of your post without hiding your post from 99.9% of users.

“find an actual progressive” aka 3rd party
lol no. You don’t get to strawman and then be a rude piece of shit about it.

I mean, I generally agree with you, but like most things this isn’t black and white. It’s a nuanced thing that needs to be handled with care. I get it; Large movements are terrible at nuance.
While we’re two years out from the start of the campaign, we can certainly encourage the Dems to find an actual progressive.
Hillary was better than Newsom. It’s funny that California Dems are blasted as the most liberal, when they might be the most conservative Dems outside of West Virginia.
Yes, anything is better than fascism. That point was more important 18 months ago, and might be more important again 12 months from now.

On the other hand, this is a fine time for this conversation. We do have roughly a year to find a candidate that’s not fucking Newsom just because he could meme for a minute.
I don’t mind a few memes in our politics, but I do want there to be some kind of substance under the memes. And not the substance Magats have found under theirs, 💩.

He made a statement. That’s enough.
If we were all as brave and principled as this kid, this shit would be done right now.

Granted. They weren’t giving out participation trophies for 12th though, sorry.
- Comment on My feelings on the Super Bowl 1 week ago:
I was slightly interested in getting into it. Youtube had some 15 minute sample of Sunday Ticket. So I figured I’d catch the end of the Bears game. Why not.
13 of the 15 minutes were ads and the demo ran out. Iirc it was exorbitantly priced to continue, and you wouldn’t get everything.
- Comment on Unfortunate Development for Duke Poop'Em 2 weeks ago:
0:35 is the alleged shart. Within seconds he’s trying to wrap it up. At 0:39 he’s suddenly trying to immediately wrap it up. At 0:42 the woman in green arguably reacts. More reactions from the woman in green again at 0:47 and 0:53. At 0:51 he literally gestures the press out of the room without actually moving from his chair.
If this was a grand jury, you’d get an indictment for sure. It could not be a shart, but it looks like a shart, sounds like a shart, and the woman in green smells it like a shart.

Declarations. Executive orders. Not bills.
Bills create law. He ain’t doing that. Most of what he does is not legal.
- Comment on Unfortunate Development for Duke Poop'Em 2 weeks ago:
It looks real to me. The reactions aren’t large, and maybe the shart noise at 0:34 could have been edited in, but… it all fit together with the way Trump and staff suddenly rushed the press out of the room.
- Comment on The Nebraska legislature has approved a bill that lowers the minimum wage from $15 an hour to $13.50 an hour for teen workers 2 weeks ago:
I don’t really have an issue with this. At $25 an hour, 10% less for actual teenagers is fair.
Wait, did you say $15?

Yeah, I know, you think Chinese hegemony will be so much better.
- Comment on Art of the deal.. 2 weeks ago:
Could be a lot of things. He’s still oddly subservient to Putin, and mostly serving Putin’s aims. Could be that Trump’s position and power doesn’t extend fast enough to end Ukraine. (Maybe because the Republican Senate won’t allow it?)

It’s still good practice. Suddenly everyone is looking at that person to do the thing, and if they don’t the problem is more clear.

High sec is the tutorial. The game is about organizations and politics. If you don’t get into that aspect of it in one of a thousand ways, you’re not really playing the game.
- Comment on Anon wants to talk about video games 3 weeks ago:
I enjoyed the first run through of Factorio with friends, but it very quickly just became too much like work.
Like if I wanted to debug and fix a giant machine, I could do it on something productive.

- Comment on Will LW *PLEASE* do something about that hit-and-run account? 3 weeks ago:
Most fixes I can think of would effectively be a one move blunder, where the opponent’s move is extremely obvious and only leaves us in a worse position.
The only real fix I can think of is to require everyone to sign in with a Steam account that has spent > $200 or similar.

I was hoping the tariffs would be good, but I certainly expected it to be a disaster otherwise.
In retrospect, it was just really bad, and his tariffs were a ham-fisted turd. He saved the demolition of the country for his second term, after he let Stephen Miller run things and got rid of anyone who was telling him no.

It’s fine. He has potential, and he really did move fast and break things to make Tesla what it was. I don’t think EVs would be where they are today without him.
The pedophile thing really was the turning point. It was possible to see before then, but it wasn’t even the event itself that did it. He just changed fast around that time period. Whether his views changed or he just started revealing and acting on them much more is debatable.

Maybe just young, because the coverage up to that point was hard to avoid.
- Comment on who's gonna tell him? 5 weeks ago:
He was probably already racist, but it really does seem like the drugs helped make him a Nazi.
It’s probably a combination of the people feeding him drugs and him drifting towards manipulators instead of people who might tell him no.
