China is such a dick. I know, I know, a lot of countries are dicks, I get that. But good Buddha they go out of their way to antagonize. And then they respond super belligerently in an official response to questions about said dickishness.


I think you’re just supposed to not get hired, not get arrested!


Chariot progressive. Listen. Mandelbrot set is in motion. Echo Choir has been breached, we are fielding the ball.


Copyparty is easy, but if you can both set up syncthing, that makes it a breeze. I have a sibling that lives across the Pacific and last time they visited I set up syncthing on their laptop and when either of us wants to share something, we just drop it in that folder and wait a minute or two.


Why is <fill in company> so shitty? Why is <fill in bank> so shitty? Why is <fill in politician> so shitty? Because we fucking suck balls at any type of informed decision-making and it’s fucking snowballed to this current shit show.


I remember some Republican wanting to put machine guns along the border. While sane people in the US, and most of the civilized world, have ongoing problems processing how fucked this country is now, magats/republicans, and the administration just giddily circle jerk on killing people. They love this type of murder, and go out of their way to defend it. So fucking gross.


Could be better, but still a huge step up from the hate rhetoric magats get spoon fed 24/7 from Fox and friends.


10 years ago, I might have argued for 10 year to get to that point. Now? I’m with you. Two decades minimum.


I don’t know, man. I know we are speed running history at this point, but I’ll be very surprised if ICE isn’t still rounding up people illegally in ten years.


Haha, that’s like my mom telling my kid (20+ year old), that his using Discord is “going to radicalize you” because she read about someone who was radicalized while spending too much focus on some idiot maga discord channel.


As these types of articles always do, they leave out China’s huge unemployment problem and dismiss the existential threat of wealth inequality.


That’s my first thought everytime I see something with this fine detail. It’s going to be a blob.


I liked Robert Reich’s post regarding this.


In your head, be a third party. You’re just passing along the information. Not apologetic, not angry, just facts.


Is it still a war crime without a war? I’m not trying to split hairs or justify the crime, just wondering about definitions. A quick search didn’t really clarify it. Violation of international law, absolutely. And who would prosecute? I don’t think the US has allowed itself to be subjugated to any international court.

For the first 40+ years of my life, sure. For the past 10…we are suffering from a cult.


Man, take a break from electronics and take in the trip. Make sure you bring enough liquids.
I figured with the way my body is broken down already, there is no way I could play a sport traditional sport.
