I feel you

some mf gonna grab both and dual boot

I think the part people don’t realize is that like a lot of top athletes just have oddities - higher muscle building hormones, circulatory systems that work better under stress, more cellular receptors for triggering muscle building etc. And at the same time sex hormones aren’t the only chemicals that affect these things so there’s also a plethora of performance enhancing drugs cascading out of labs at the same time which is genuinely pumping out hulked up muscle freaks (see Liver King’s 12k steroid shots per month scandal)

At some point it would just make more sense to just classify sports by weight and build and remove the genital inspection element.

Republicans deregulate banks every time they get into office.

we don’t actually know what Harris would have done to be intellectually honest, we just have what she said.

the problem is that people learned nothing. The pandemic gave trump a get out of jail free card, I guess, even though he fucked it up

Free and fair elections have never been anything but an ideal in this country. It started with voters were wealthy landowning men, often who owned slaves.

What we’re seeing is years of undermined reforms by the momentarily wealthy after the previous empires in europe tore themselves apart.

they had it coming

I’ve ran through 3 win 10 HDD computers and they all had sorts of performance issues with HDD. I don’t think it was tested beyond bootup for HDD.

8 had a real small install footprint if I recall. It worked on a lot of really shitty hardware that 10 didn’t. 8 is definitely not as popular as 10

its going to be a shit 32 years.

People get more upset about a bad friend than a real enemy.

I think they should just force him to disclose his shitty algorithm

Edit: Third party, local moderators for social media should also be a standard requirement. No outsourcing of moderation.

yeah I don’t think a usa based platform is really “long gaming” the fee speech problem. Bluesky now shifting to monetization plans. Its a matter of time until some rich dildo buys it up. If were lucky it will be mark cuban or somebody buts its still grim prospects.

The only way to deal with them is to call them on every bluff so that making a bluff becomes a liability’

x is a government platform now. Sign onto your government social media account.

This is framing only billionaires can buy. The problem is less this is the reality and more that the billionaires who own like 90% of the media can make people believe (including democrats like harris, because her immigration policy was not a product of donors) that there is something to this.

Democrats had some solid policies like paid family leave on the table and I just don’t think the messaging made its way to the people that needed to hear it.

because americans see voting the same as buying and endorsing a thing which is objectively wrong.

Not buying a product hurts the manufacturer.

Not voting does jack shit. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

America has powerful Karen/Kyle energy where people overreact to a slight flaw in service and this argument is the Karen/Kyle Tantrum argument over genuinely bad policies supported by Harris. They think if they take a fit this election they will be in a better spot next election. The reality is that more poeple will be homeless and out of reach. The media will be in worse shape.

Voting is always a trolley problem.

But overall I don’t think that’s the biggest group of people. The majority of people that didn’t vote I think were tuned out of the election because of ongoing failures.

All those guys who decided to sit it out on X.com (the non porn site) really did a great job making a difference there. Good job team twitter.

we need some kind of “subscribers bill of rights” both to discourage and to check the stupid business models.
