Seems like autocorrect is getting worse over time. It's to the point where I have to ee-read every post before posting. It used to guess what you meant when you type something that's not a real word, now it changes actual words to other words it thinks you meant before you even finish the sentence.

One of the stupidest things I've ever done is deciding to keep all my old university text books instead of selling them back when they were still worth something. I've barely used them for about 20 years, and most of the info is probably available online. (1/2)

I'm totally on board with fully automated luxury space communism or whatever, but now that our tech is getting close to being able to make that a possibility, I don't think we have the right people in charge to implement that reality properly. If there has ever been a time for revolution, it is now!

Life is getting less affordable for people all around the world, regardless of what government they elect. It's almost as if the problem isn't politics but the capitalist system all these political movements exist within... 🤔

I was listening to some Bob Marley the other day, and all the "Zion" references got me going down a rabbit hole trying to figure out where he would likely stand on the Israel/Palestine issue... (1/2)

I think "grower or a shower" applies better to music than it does to penis'. A grower is an album or song that takes a few listens to get into, where a shower is something you show your friends when you want them to get into a band or artist.

Anyone remember this '90s Canadian band? This video somehow combines the esthetic of Blind Melon with Nine Inch Nails...

This would probably be a better song to share in mid-to-late March, but I like chaos lol...

While it is a net good that more people on the right are becoming more vocal in opposition to Israel, it needs to be pointed out that anti-zionism on the right tends to not be for humanitarian reasons, but for antisemitic and nationalist America First type reasons. Left more pro🇵🇸, right more anti🇮🇱.

Israel's idea of a ceasefire is only killing a few kids every day instead of dozens.

So the main things Democrats and Republicans both agree on are war, genocide, and protecting powerful pedophiles?!?

Marjorie Taylor Greene says House leaders struck a bipartisan deal to block two censure resolutions — one against Democrat Stacey Plaskett and one against Republican Cory Mills. She says Plaskett should have been censured for texting with Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 hearing as he advised her...

I’m here to strengthen Canada’s economic partnership with the UAE, meet with business leaders looking to invest in Canada, and unlock new export opportunities to benefit Canadian workers and businesses.
