Yeah I’m sure of it. They’re so effective at playing the victim in this kind of stuff, and people like Biden and Bass and the lying news media are complicit by leaving out the context of the protests and saying shit like “there’s never an excuse for protests at a house of worship”

Fuck Karen Bass. I wish her a very long COVID. Can’t believe I voted for this piece of shit.

This was her response to a clash between pro Palestine protesters and Zionist counter protestors outside a synagogue: https://x.com/MayorOfLA/status/1805110392806642141

What were the protests about? The synagogue was hosting an event advertising land for sale to Jewish Americans in the West Bank. How anyone could think that the protests are antisemitic with this context is beyond me. I hate this weaponized victimhood that these Zionists employ.

I’ve definitely heard rizz from a more gen-z acquaintance of mine. He’s also very much a bro type and very into hookup culture, not sure if that’s related to the subgroup thing mentioned in the other comment

Do you have any book recommendations on the “rationalist” movement? I know too many people with EA/rational type brain works and I want to get some good books to counter their BS

I fucking hate this bazinga brained “throw precaution (and/or regulations) to the wind” bullshit. I know that’s like the SV MO but it makes me really just want to go out and do something really cool.

“Oh yeah let’s just send thousands of new satellites up every year and every 5 years we’ll let them burn up upon reentry and send up more!”

Another thing, and I know these techbrained libertarian types don’t understand this, is that even if you accept this is something that humanity needs, you certainly don’t need companies competing by each running their own satellite arrays. This is a natural monopoly to end all natural monopolies.

Good luck comrade!

Did the symptoms come back when you stopped vaping the CBD?

In Amerika and Klanada at least I am pretty sure the 2x spicy one is vegan (but not the 1x spicy, they use actual animal products in the flavoring)

Without revealing too much personal information, I was laid off from Intel a few months ago. They did a huge downsizing in my division and I think it’s gonna fuck up the organization long term At least one of the people on my former team left the company shortly after the layoffs (and thes person had been there almost 10 years) and I expect more will do similarly

I started working there because the technical side of the work seemed interesting, and I didn’t reflect critically enough on their position as a US military contractor as well as a huge supporter of the Zionist entity. The cognitive dissonance started building in my head when they announced a $3b investment in the occupied Palestinian territories for them to open a new chip plant (and this was since the genocide started), which made me very upset. I was getting ready to quit when I got laid off, which ended up being the best outcome because I got severance lol

Anyone have any leads on any tech companies that are actually ethical?

Can you please post an archive link? I can’t find the article on Google

I think federally at least sexuality is a protected characteristic, but I don’t think the courts in Idaho would respect that so you’d need to have the funds to appeal it up a few levels

Btw the ruling to make sexuality a protected characteristic was an incredibly rare Gorsuch W where he ruled that discriminating based off of sexual orientation was discriminating based off of sex (i.e. if you refuse service to Jim because Jim dates Bob, but you wouldn’t refuse service to Jane because Jane dates Bob, then that’s implicitly discrimination based off of sex)

Not the OP, but looked some things up because I was curious. Ente has a 2Tb storage option that costs $300/year or $30/mo; not sure how much you pay for that much storage in Google Photos. Their FAQ says they have an easy import process from Google Photos via Google Takeout (bulk download your data from all Google services). No idea if ente respects the geotags but I imagine they would (seems like an important feature for a Google photos killer).

This is a good documentary on the indoctrination that many American Jews experience, priming their support for the Zionist entity. I watched a screening of it a few months ago and it was pretty eye opening for me

Doesn’t Iran also have nukes? Like not officially but I thought it was kind of an open secret

Or Elizabeth Warren

It would have been Michael Bloomberg

There’s always a voice in my head saying “no, this is all bullshit, you’re just like everybody else except you’re weak and pathetic.”

Yeah I got diagnosed with ADHD recently and I think the diagnostic helped but I still get that voice sometimes…

I don’t even think people say this necessarily out of disrespect, some of them legitimately want to help but don’t understand that I’ve tried all this stuff and none of it works for more than a couple days at best.

This is exactly my experience (the couple days thing). So far meds really help me to be able to stick to these kinds of things
