Current us administration: Let’s close the department of education and make secondary education all but impossible.

Armada and Armada 2.

I really like RTS games.

Whatever the fuck I feel like, damn.

Nosey ass search engine…

Hey, you.

YEAH YOU! WITH THE FACE ON YOUR HEAD!

YOU are a FULLY FLEDGED HUMAN BEING with VALID FEELINGS and DIFFICULTIES!

YOU are BEAUTIFUL and HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF GREAT STRENGTH whether you REALIZE IT OR NOT

YOU can FACE THE DAY ahead and NOBODY CAN STOP YOU unless you LET THEM

If someone wants to HATE YOU FOR EXISTING, then you have to EXIST AS HARD AS POSSIBLE because they aren’t going to change, but YOU DON’T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT PETTY SHITHEADS

GO GET EM, TIGER

That place is a monument to mankind’s arrogance.

Fellas, is it gay to have empathy, show genuine emotion, and actually care about another being other than yourself?

Reposts get old and seeing the same joke with 8 meme formats that are all basically the same “drake meme/pooh meme/geordi meme” style gets old even quicker unless you can put some kind of spin on it to make it fresh.

My biggest gripe with the fediverse is seeing the exact same post in 15 different communities over the course of 2-3 days. But if that’s the price of the fediverse, I’m fine paying it. Sometimes the discussions in the comments get WAY different.

And of course since it’s still fairly small compared to other sites, and there are always more people coming in, the amount of people who have seen that thing posted for the first time is still pretty high.

I have to keep reminding myself that not everyone has as many pockets of downtime as I do, so while I’m on for about 5-20 minutes at a time, I get on many times over the day so I see most posts during my waking hours. So just because I’ve seen this “I sleep/ real shit” meme 8 times this week, hundreds of people are seeing it for the first time. And even if I’ve seen “this country leader did a CRAZY THING! How messed up is that!” every single day, some people didn’t get on yesterday to see it and probably don’t feel like commenting on posts a day old is accepted (I say comment on old posts all day of you want, I’ve had tons of forum discussions in posts that are years old)

I ramble a lot, sorry. But my point is “reposts and rehashed discussions get annoying but they’re a price of the fediverse and new members and more people could comment on old posts instead of making new ones”

Some people like to complain that politics is everywhere and since they like to stick their heads in the sand and go “LALALALALA I CAN’T HEAR YOU”, they prefer not to see political memes, or memes with political figures that aren’t political in nature.

Some people down vote popular things because they are popular.

Some people just have a hate boner for a specific user and sometimes follow them around to down vote anything they post.

And statistically there’s probably at least one republican around trying not to act like a lizard in a chinchilla suit.

They’re destroying your shit, you should be allowed to go destroy theirs.

Beware that Nvidia cards have driver issues, they’re fixable but if you do have an Nvidia card, I’d just use the built in graphics chip for trying out Linux at first.

Well, shit. Extra work for me. I knew I should have waited for the AMD series to be in stock…

I know just enough about Linux to know I should have been getting into it when I graduated over a decade ago.

I also know just enough to know it can do pretty much everything I need, as long as I’m willing to switch to a Linux alternative with similar capabilities.

However, I am Linux-dumb and deeply set into my windows, to the point where I’m not sure I have the technical savvy to switch.

From my understanding, Linux works very well, as long as you know what you’re doing.

I’m sure I’m overestimating the learning curve but it’s still intimidating.

I saw the headline, my brain went “so he’s being held in contempt, as would any other person refusing to answer a question, right?”

Of course, I already knew the answer.

You first.

But seriously, it gets annoying, but at the same time it’s the biggest scam on the fediverse right now that I know of. So I feel like a little visibility once in awhile (not 6 times a day) that lets people know about it is fine.

To anyone who knows: is there a way to filter out usernames containing that name? Like if I could block dms from my chosen instance, that’d be great. I’ve been getting 2-3 a week.

Shit like this is why I donate to Wikipedia.

Fuck off and die, nazi scum.

I can tell you exactly how much every single one of those things is worth once their mansions are burned to the ground.

Can’t wait until they get declared domestic terrorists and alphabet squadded.

Just ask Reagan how Republicans feel about armed minorities.

Armed minorities are harder to oppress.

My parents, my parents church, my in-laws, my sister, my wife’s friends, my old dentist, my old doctor, and several acquaintances.

So that’s like… At least 3 people.

I just want neat metal ship models without having to pay $100+ for out of production stuff…

Perhaps even one in a bottle.

Lmao how pathetic must your life be to wish such things over minor annoyances on a website.

Go touch grass

I rode a bicycle 120 miles a few years back just because I felt like it one day. I’m probably not the best just for what’s considered “reasonable”

That said, it really is the joke/meme “Americans think 100 years is a long time, Europeans think 100 miles is a long distance”

Personally, I feel like if I’m more than 3 miles away, I’m not local. I may be “from the area” but I’m not “a local”

Most people I know wouldn’t consider 50 miles to be “close” though in terms of “can I pop over for a quick trip or do I need to plan my day around it”

As for car rides, like… If I’m driving I don’t mind so much because I’m occupied by trying not to die, but as a passenger anything over 5 minutes is not a “quick trip”
