I’ve stopped keeping my paycheck in my bank account. Access can be revoked at any time, and these are tumultuous times indeed. Just because we’re safe today doesn’t mean we’ll be tomorrow.

The media in EU are also influenced by Murdoch. Plenty of rightwing productions under his wing.

“Democracy… is government… by the people… for the people… But the people… are retarded.” Truly oracular words from an enlightened soul.

The more time passes, the less I want to be part -at all, no matter what level- of human society.

I’d flee but there really aren’t any places left to go for us. I pine for the past, when it must’ve been comparatively trivial to vanish and start over elsewhere.

We have all the negatives but none of the positives. No implants that would make our jobs or lives easier. No perfect memory recall. Just eternal debt and struggle to survive in techno-feudalism.

Soon, Chemo and immunotherapy will only be availabke to certain people, to the exclusion of everyone else.

I’m young enough to know a cancer diagnosis, no matter what stage, would be the end of me because I won’t belong to the right ‘caste’ of people so to speak.

Charlie Kirk comitted suicide by proxy through fomenting stochastic terrorism. His words directly led to his death.

Hijacked by those with the biggest pockets.

Yeah this just shows you don’t have any rights. You have temporary, revocable privileges, depending on the whims of those exercising power.

I almost fell for something similar. Right before enrolling I decided to go on a deeper dive and I found ample evidence of it being a diploma mill without any value whatsoever. Saved me a lot of grief.

That’s different, those vets are “spent”, it would be so much easier if they all just, y’know, dropped dead.

Glad I can say “rest in piss Charlie” as much as I want on here. Bluesky sounds exactly as braindead as Xitter, except less obstinately so.

Unironically, oxidative stress shortens your telomeres and therefore, your lifespan.

People are tired. There’s so much dis- and misinformation going around that no one has the energy to follow every single thread to its origin. Therefore, something “smallish” like this can easily be ignored while the attention is on grander, more succulent topics.

Also, billionaires own the media and propping up Trump is in their best financial interest, so there will be very few questions from that side.

A wartime economy is only profitable if you, y’know, actually gain territory and spoils of war.

Started during the pandemic, and silver too. Plenty of people laughed at me, said to put it in etfs or, god forbid, bitcoin. It’s a far cry from a treasure but it outperformed all normal kinds of savings accounts by loads.

It’s obviously a global push. I expect no country is going to be spared draconian identity verification rules in the near future.

I appreciate all the people who fill niche comms with actual content. None of it is monetized in any way, so there’s no agenda. It’s just like Reddit pre-2012. I can only hope it stays like this for a long time still.

Lol we’re doomed.

Phone manufacturers would make bank from the sheer number of replacements ordered.
