For those of y'all out there protesting:
There's an app on f-droid* called "Private Lock" that'll auto-lock your phone if a movement threshold is reached. So, if someone takes it or it's knocked out of your hand? Locked. Privacy maintained. You've just gotta put your code in to unlock again!

If someone could just go ahead and leak that client list, I'm pretty sure we'd all be grateful for it.

It cracks me up when pundits can't admit they did a thing, they always have to drag an entire group into it.
"LIBERALS RETURNING TO TWITTER!"
So... *you're* returning to Twitter? Because people didn't take you seriously and you didn't have Twitterbots to fawn over your brave wittle self?

Sen. Bernie Sanders on Zohran Mamdani: "Will the Democratic leadership learn from his campaign? I doubt it. I think they would rather go down with the Titanic than give up the fact that they are captains of the boat."

Took a walk through Little Tokyo this morning. Does this look like it's been through rioting? Does this look like we need the Marines? Take a look at a map. Look up Little Tokyo vs the Civic Center, where the Federal Building lives. Your fascist fake president is lying to you.

People who routinely treat retail staff at closing storefronts poorly shouldn't be allowed to vote.
Just them.
Just them.

Early films frequently used criminals as protagonists, a trend that became a rallying cry for the first wave of film censorship. The 1897 British comedy A WAREFARER IS COMPELLED TO DISROBE PARTIALLY features a bowler-hatted business man being robbed at gunpoint.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?
There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

They had nude peepshows, elaborate stage plays, college football games had regular fatalities and the USA held public executions into the 1930s.
Modern people have very strange views of the past.

The profit margin on electricity prices can be as high as 92% That means for every $1 you spend on your power, the company is paying 8c in electricity and making 92c profits. Thanks John Key for partly privatising our electricity sector.
