this is how he operates.. he denies, then jokes, then encourages others to joke, then when they do he gets serious, then act like everyone was always serious.

this man will NEVER willingly give up a shred of power.

We have two corporate parties, the status quo and the controlled opposition. They occasionally switch labels but until we get the corporate out, we will never have a real choice.

I hate going there these days. I’m not sure if it was a frog boil or what but the site now is a shadow of the one I left during the big mod exodus. It’s terrible now, so much less info, user base has devolved, riddled with ads.

I imagine if I was still there all the crap would feel normal but having left, every time I visit now and see what huge changes have been made. Every time i visit the quality of the site has tanked even more.

Given what the frame is made of, I’ve been curious why gallium prices haven’t spiked…

Yes, but in the end I spent all this time disabling notifications, when I bought the thing to show me them.. I just realized I don’t need that alert immediately and in fact led to me ignoring them since they became just another annoyance (phone, computer and watch all told me the same thing). It became a negative productivity tool.

I was so excited about Apple Watch. Thought how great it would be to not have to take my phone out of my pocket anymore; less screen time, right?

No, it’s just this bullshit. More noise, more alerts, more digital cruft. I put the thing on the charger a couple years ago, been there since.

First, I love you for this joke. Second, I don’t want to risk pissing off Ron Swanson.

I know right. And the motherfucking cultists in my own family are telling me it’s my fault for trusting the stock market. But these same fucks have told me that’s my only option for retirement because Soc. Sec. Is a “Ponzi scheme”.

We’re setup to fail, we’re only here to produce value that can be stolen.

You know, I was going to think up a funny reply for this one but in truth, in 40something years, I’ve only seen the man cry twice. He is not someone who likes to display emotion (except for anger).

So no, only weak men cry?

It’s all wrapped up with a beautiful bow, the biggest, best bow ever, people are saying that, a bow like you’ve never seen before, everyone knows there is no better bow in terms of wrapping.
