- Comment on Doesn't the need for a permit fundamentally contradict the US's ideals of free speech? 1 month ago:
This is pretty much it.
The city knows about your protest so they can plan accordingly.
They may also make requests of your protest, eg, could you self organise your own traffic wardens to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

Tell me you don’t live in NZ without telling me you don’t live in NZ
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 5 months ago:
It’s on purpose.
You spend longer IN Google, so you see more Google ads, on a Google platform, so Google gets a bigger cut of the pie.
It’s the same reason Google started summarizing Wikipedia (or other highly rated results) on its search results where possible. Why they built basic functionality (timers etc) into their search engine.
- Comment on Does anyone feel like an actual adult? 7 months ago:
Feel like? Maybe not. Accepted? Maybe.
More often than not now, I find myself having to be the adult in the room. My father recently died, and while my parents both have wills sorted, they didn’t have other things like power of attorney sorted, or a real discussion of what his funeral arrangements he would like. It was not a sudden death. That was a turning point for me.
I guess that’s where I’m at, I’ve accepted I’m an adult. I’m losing backstops, but also becoming other people’s backstop.
