It's almost like these device companies make the bulk of their money in software sales on devices rather than the devices themselves. They only make money on the things they don't actually make, which is about as capitalist as it gets.

I know how to spin this to Americans...cough... "Mr. President, we cannot afford a high speed rail gap!"

Its great!

I use an extension called Recipe Filter that condenses the webpage to just the recipe ingredients and instructions. It's awesome.

More likely to kill Grandma at Thanksgiving than themselves.

I wonder many Puerto Ricans now living in Florida went for Trump and $15/hour?

Counterargument: Give all food away for free, to everyone.

Wherever that encryption key is stored, it will be the #1 target for internet attacks. UK sucks and I love watching them fall apart, but leaving the EU might have been the best thing they ever did this century.

If the Democrats collapsed, the Republicans would follow shortly afterwards. They are symbiotic.

Buddy, it's done. Democrats suck, but so does the GOP. Bernie held Vermont while they had Republican governors. It's not giving up, it's giving them a chance the Democrats won't.

So most White Californians look down on service sector employees and like cheap rides to brunch?

:surprised-pika:

I just want to say I'm not sure if America will/can vote for any semblance of Social Democracy, let alone any true left ideology. There's been too much cultural contamination from capitalist propaganda for far too long here. This culture worships cops, imperialism, and (obviously) capitalism. Even when the shit straight up murders some of them, they come back for more like cattle coming for food but being led to slaughter. To top it all off, it's encased in a belief this is the best system the world has to offer.

Nah, they're angry at Feinstein for being friendly with Republicans right now. Too bad they won't recognize that Obama/Pelosi endorsed her 2018 election over CA Dems choice. Almost like those two were trying to keep conservatives in power. Huh...go figure.

I am generally against capturing comrades for show trials, but, as a liberal, I'll allow it in the spirit of compromise.

Comrade, do you not see the Goose as our ally in the struggle against fascism and capitalism? The Goose does not bend to the will of its "superiors." It does not tolerate harassment of its community. It does not recognize ownership or have leaders. They take turns leading flights. They have sympathy, compassion, fierce determination, and are intelligent.

We should all strive to be like Comrade Goose.

You really expecting these things to start acting rationally now? Its so dumb, it just may well be true.

My friend finally kicked dope for good but only after years of trying and his second OD. I know there's not much I can say that can compete with the physical need to shoot up again. I don't know you, in fact this is the first post I've noticed of yours since I'm infrequent here, but let me say from one random stranger online that you are loved. Even if you don't see it around you, it's somewhere out there. It's in no certain place or time, has no physical characteristics, or belongs to any one person. It has no evidence of existing, yet it exists because we exist.

We all need love, compassion, and community. This is a trait of our species, a genetic hard coding hundreds of thousands of years in the making. When they are absent, we become depressed and seek to fill the void with anything. Some drink, others gamble, game, overindulge in children books of wizardry, and so on. Your current addiction is physical yes and, as bad as that is, it's also the easiest part to overcome. Once you've kicked it though then you have to solve the problems that lead to addiction.

Your life has meaning, and if you don't think so then know at least it does to me. I'm sure you have lots of love to provide this world. Don't let this capitalist system claim another comrade. Please, go to a facility where you can get physically clean. Then go somewhere outside your network where you can relearn to live and be honest with your feelings and yourself.

I believe in you Rachel! :af-heart:
