Sure but can we have more money? No? What about less dystopia? No?
Well my state is Texas so it's going to Trump regardless rofl.
If Trump wins by a single solitary vote, maybe I'll apologize for not voting for KKKamala.
But tbf, Ohio was pretty much unlivable before deregulation turned it into a toxic chemical dumpsite.
You've heard of Pay-to-Win, now get ready to Pay-to-Lose!
If it's ten years, that's not funding. That's a ponzy scheme.
If it's the YouTuber I'm thinking of her content is great.
I missed out on both CTH and GenZedong era stuff actually. I was probably still a theory-less DemSoc pleb around the time all the drama happened. I mostly just skim my front page until my eyes can't roll anymore, delete a few subs that are now toxic or astroturfed, then go to either my current special interest or hop form hobby sub to hobby sub, then log off lol. Like, that's genuinely my browsing habit. But for the most part, right now it's mostly used for autism subs, web dev stuff, and X4
TMI I know but I think it's hilarious.
I've never seen any porn on reddit, like ever. Scout's honor.
It's actually funny because right now /r/itookapicture is seemingly imploding because it's become a dump spot for low effort quasi-porn nudes.
Even my hobbyspace subreddits are going to shit and that was my justification to keep using it.
Is this closer to Apex or Team Fortress 2? I might be interested just to test on Linux personally but I don't think any of my g@mer friends are in.
ProtonDB is reporting gold status for Linux. There isn't a native build yet but I wouldn't be surprised it there was one down the road.

Hold up. One way trip? Because maybe we can work something out.
Welp, it looks like we've made it to "patented the wheel" level of Dystopia. Pretty cool.
That sort of thing happens when us poors are constantly getting priced out of existence more and more each year. Not sure why people think cost of living skyrocketing while labor wages stagnate seems to have zero correlation here but it sure as fuck would be great if the government that is supposed to serve us would actually try to help instead of sending billions of dollars overseas to fund genocides.
PS: housing first initiatives have a track record of working while shaming amd spitting on the homeless does not. Similarly safe drug use sites have a record of reducing use compared to shaming the homeless who struggle with addiction. But I fucking digress. Fuck this country.
Tbf dehumanizing "the enemy" like he's doing here is fascist rhetoric so there is that.
Last week I saw an odd thing on Indeed where I was apparently "already qualified for an interview" for a job posting at a local hospital that I've been trying to get in to for years for IT. I didn't have to apply but just set up an interview time. Well turns out it's actually a "hiring event" which I was informed after a recruiter called and was like "Are you sure you wanted to apply for this? You aren't even A+ certified anymore." You know because you forget how computers work if you let your cert expire even though you've been working with computers for the last 20+ goddamn years and at an IT level for the last 6 but sure.
She asked me if I was willing to re-cert and I said yes but whatever. My Google IT cert which is the same thing isn't worth shit I guess so that's a scam. Thanks Googs...
In any case, if you had half a day to crash study for a stupid fucking IT interview that was the equivalent of a 10 min speed date, what would you brush up on?
I ask because like you literally just google what you don't know. Everyone in the industry knows this, but you can't fucking say that at an interview. Just like when they say "can you tell me about you employment gaps?" you can't say "well you see I was fired from jobs because I am autistic." I already and prepped to lie and say I've been doing freelance IT and web dev in my spare time and that also covers those gaps.
Edit: done with interview. They closed the position on Monday because a guy that quit asked for his job back. I'm going to go kill myself now.
I'm on a mailing list for Claudia and got this today. Kind of funny since last week the Democrats tried kicking de la Cruz off of the Georgia ballot.
No seriously, I have an interview in about 3 hours. I lied on the screener and said I LOVE working with and helping people. It's a partial lie I guess because I like helping people but not in the "corpo" way since that isn't really helping people and it's all fake as fuck...
I am already daydreaming about having the job, where I have to mask hardcore and pretend I love talking to large groups of people but only after I hit a rockstar rail of coke off the toilet seat in the restroom beforehand. I've never done cocaine before... which nostril should I go with?
I sort of maybe would be ok if I got the job but like I really wanna get this freelance web dev thing off the ground instead.
I guess it wouldn't be horrible since it's a remote gig all done via Zoom meetings but like Idk... Every time I get going on programming a fucking job comes my way and screws it all up.
Sidenote but if anyone knows someone that wants a small business-esque static website that almost doesn't suck, hit me up. I need money to pay for things like food and weed.
Idk why I made this post really. How's everyone's week going?
E: so I got a "job offer" but did some googling and it's basically a cut-through insurance job sales position, I'd be working evenings so won't see my family. Probably won't take it. Sick of this tbh.
Honestly, I'm fucking tired. There is a God damn sticky in every r/LSC post that says it is a commie subreddit, by commies, for commies, and these motherfucking dweebs are upset about it being full of commies? I could write whole essay about this fucking post. Jesus fucking Christ.
Got my new retro handheld emulator. It's an Anbernic Arc-D. Just got 50 GB of roms loaded from my personal currated collection and I kind of think I wanna jump into some jrpgs I can play on the couch when I wanna decompress. Right now I'm looking at starting with GBA titles since I missed that whole era but I'm mainly looking for any suggestions up to PS1 era. I've played all the main ones like Chrono Trigger and FFVI but open to anything.
My current line up is looking like Mario RPG, Mother 2 And 3, and Golden Sun.
What are some other bangers I should definitely check out?
Also the Arc-D is dope as fuck. Stock firmware isn't even that bad.
E: thanks all for the suggestions! Gonna currate a list this morning and probably start with Golden Sun before diving into the rest. A lot of gems I recall missing out on when I was a kids too that I'm eager to jump into.
I just realized that ebook collectiong has become something of a hobby for me. I think I like that lol. I am currently sifting through saved browser tabs of book recommendations that I have amassed over the last month in an attempt to clean up my browser sessions.
I've even developed a system of sending all tabs to my computer from my phone to create a list to check with libgen, then add to Calibre and sideload to my ereader from there. I hadn't really thought of it as a hobby since reading is a hobby but I think this might be close to data hording?
I also have 90 GB of roms that I have collected that cover all eras up to N64. Do I play any of them? No, but I got them. I did start playing Mario RPG and Earthbound during Indigenous Genocide Day.
So what are your weird but interesting hobbies that have snuck into your lives?
Has /r/socialism_101 been compromised? I have noticed over the last 2 or so months some incredible takes in the comments and this thread is even locked.
I usually don't really care but this kind of thought is on par with libs that use "utopian" when talking about Marxism. Just so confidently wrong. I'm not even that well read yet on theory but, Jesus, this set off my lib radar bad.
No for real, I'm bored. Ask me stuff lol.
I'm trying to not lose my mind debugging this stupid Android app. I'm jobless and don't know what I'm doing with my life.
Recently got diagnosed with ASD at 40. I'm severely depressed and suicidal. I listen to shitty music, read theory and pretend I understand it, oh and I'm super hungover because I suffer from alcoholism. I'm an open book so please don't doxx me <3.
