I don’t disagree with your assessment per se, but ethics-wise I’m liking Chad, or anywhere else that actively takes in large numbers of immigrants/refugees.

I didn’t come here to criticize most countries like so, but when you hit the nail on the head like that …
- Comment on UAnon has a completely relatable reaction to his country's invasion. 5 days ago:
Yes. Theirs remains a country worth defending, from a legitimate, external threat, and the bulk of the potential victims were both allowed to leave and given reasonable options for places to flee to at the outset.
Personally, I’m more worried about most of my friends and family being coerced/tricked to the wrong side than being victimized - merely being deported as a white person would be a win in this sick, sad, world. The contrast was literally the point of my comment.
- Comment on UAnon has a completely relatable reaction to his country's invasion. 5 days ago:
I feel like this is more relatable than the reasons my family insists on staying on the US. All an “decent” people’s presence does is “legitimize” the regime and lull the victims and future conscripts into a false sense of security and hope, at this point.
- Comment on Anon watches a romance movie 4 weeks ago:
Seriously, sumone, en-lighten us, if its movie related.
- Comment on Anon dreams of marriage 4 weeks ago:
The powerful Magic Stone was the proposal, iirc. She saw the goblet as doubling-down.

This a daydream sequence from Headhunted to Another World or … ?
- Comment on Anon tries to save money 1 month ago:
Ten years and counting for me and VPN Unlimited so far. Unsustainable? Capitalism is un-sustainable. Cheaper than paying monthly or yearly? Absolutely.
Personally, I use the VPN to do my searches, grab magnet links, and get the torrent started, then I disconnect the VPN and switch to Cell data, as that ISP has never sent me a nasty-gram about pirating.
Reasonably sure Nord is still turning a profit on my sub.
- Comment on Anon tries to save money 1 month ago:
Lifetime VPN sub. Makes it a one-time purchase.

My money’s on the winner of this fight. As in, I would pay to see this fight, provided the money went the winner. That gorilla’s gonna bling up its habitat yo

No it fucken doesn’t.
- Comment on Anon is surprisingly allowed within 50ft of a minor 2 months ago:
Honestly sounds like a werewolf story. She’s the pack leader and acting as bait for a trap.
- Comment on Anon is staying at a hotel 2 months ago:
Still better to know that and deal with it up-front than when your lady-of-the-night is already in the lobby.
- Comment on Facebook Is Just Craigslist Now 2 months ago:
Nicest thing I’ve seen/heard/thought about facebook in a hot minute.
- Comment on Anon gets outed 2 months ago:
That last line. THAT’S the shit that should be in school logos.
- Comment on Anon is staying at a hotel 2 months ago:
Always ask for two keys. Have them hold one for a made-up name. Have guest use made-up name.
I would say its weird how people who have the balls to try this shit can be so amateurish, but I’ve witnessed some real winners out there, especially while travelling.
- Comment on Why do AI company logos look like buttholes? 2 months ago:
You need to broaden your horizons. There’s more to life than cute Hentai buttholes.
Althought, I guess I can see not wanting to acknowlege prolapse and so many other horrors some of these represent.

misogynist granny … Yep, that tracks 1000%
- Comment on Anon is at a work function 2 months ago:
No thanks, I’ve had enough corpo-nonsense this year. The diesel exhaust from the tow-boat I’m working today is more pleasant.
- Comment on Anon is at a work function 2 months ago:
whoosh The closest thing to a shred of humanity that suggestion had for it was the “roast” bit. Forced positivity is so much worse.

- Comment on Europe is looking for alternatives to US cloud providers 3 months ago:
Shiiit … I’m juet over hear in the midwest US, slightly relieve to learn that Crypo.com is based in Singapore.
That said, how the hell is Europe still guzzling this cloud kool-aide? Is a Jelly-fin, LDAP/etc, and/or Database server really so much more than cities of millions’ infrastructure peeps can wrap their minds around?
Oh right, ars is US-centric. The point of the article is to make the EU sound like helpless morons. Guess I might have to edit this comment after I read the article …
- Comment on Anon is a specific type of prepper 3 months ago:
I convert gifs where the conversion results in saved space and there’s no noticable degredation in the content. This isn’t most gifs, but I’ve encouotered more than enough to make this worthwhile, to me.
By and large, those who have bothered to convert videos to gifs don’t seem to have considered any sort of size vs quality notion; Its done moreso because whatever forum/site they uploaded to would embed gifs and not video files. Gif is efficient enough that this usually doesn’t matter, but sometimes…
- Comment on Anon is a specific type of prepper 3 months ago:
Every time I consider that my near-a-terrabyte may be a little excessive, I’ll remember anon.
Then again, I keep videos to 720P or less, and convert gifs to video, so if anon’s an HD and/or 3D/Vr maniac, I could easilly have more than them, measured in playback time.
- Comment on Mexico’s first homegrown EV faces a bumpy road 3 months ago:
Of course the first “expert opinion” quote is from a Tesla employee. Otoh, it seems obvious the timeline is too ambitious, but the “starting from zero” line seems like bullshit as well, considering how much auto manufacturing already takes place in Mexico.

Glad I slogged through that until I got to the pun. Nice work!
- Comment on What lives in the DEEP OPEN OCEAN? 3 months ago:
I had forgotten I could despise a person based on the combination of their voice and manner of speaking so much. The dread-locks on a white person doesn’t help.
Yes, I know I’m just spoiled by having my tastes catered to in every form of social media, but at the same time, Neil Degrasse Tyson in drag would be more enjoyable to watch, on this topic or any other.
- Comment on Anon doesn't hold back 3 months ago:
I had a few girls who weren’t cool with me being able to shut-down my romantic interest the moment we had that conversation. We weren’t friends.
Most insisted later I missed my chance to try being more assertive, but none liked learning their “crush”-perks weren’t ever exclusive or crush-related; The crush just meant I hadn’t let them see me treat others similarly.
- Comment on Anon doesn't hold back 3 months ago:
Didn’t work to me. I played with the most awkward weapons I could manage anyways, and if there’s one thing I sucked at, it was putting myself in the blast-radius of my own grenades and such. Just knowing how to strafe and melee was OP 30 years ago.
- Comment on Anon doesn't hold back 3 months ago:
I’m both in this picture and the “older sports jock”(compared to some friends… no sportsball for me, just fit).
I saw myself as a ticking-timebomb/life-ruiner, so … okay, okay, lotsa regrets. I was wrong and missed so many opportunities to be at least slightly less alone.
