hosts file block twitter/reddit/facebook/etc on all my computers. i guess i haven’t done it on my phone because i can’t be bothered [and regardless of how much i need a hit, i’m not gonna sit there on my phone browser for hours anyway]
contacting my representatives is exactly as useful as writing a letter to santa
this is insane. why can’t we vote for them not to be able to do this? isn’t this a democracy?
i try to put in the disc, hit play, and just walk away so i miss all the garbage and the paragraphs warning me about prison time. kinda kills the mood
i really hate how they call it a ‘library’, very disingenuous if it’s all on their servers and predicated on their fucking license agreements
what if real libraries had to throw away books because harpercollins got pissy. would anyone stand for it? (probably yes)
sorry this is gross:
i do not understand american’s aversion to the bidet. why would i want to wipe my ass with dry fucking paper rather than water? why why why. like it’s somehow ‘gross’ to use water. but scraping at wet shit with fucking tissue paper is hygienic and normal?
i remember growing up I’d literally get a buzz off a good thread or from reeling off a good post. it felt so incredible being able to communicate with people across the world and be taken seriously, evaluated on the merits of my words rather than dismissed due to age or race or anything. and most of all, it felt like this special secret between you and other dorks. now everyone has phones in their pocket. going on twitter is like going to mcdonals.
imagine having a funeral on halloween
motherfucker you had a party with 10 people and a girl you liked made out with you [allegedly] how do you not have any friends?
but this is correct, that’s where the mic is, it’s more comfortable than holding it to my ear [especially the modern smartphone shape], and i like knowing i’m talking straight into the mic
i hate that we all got so frightened about math. it’s genuinely fun to learn how it works when you’re not being forced to in a school setting, which was just a fucking nightmare for no reason. i had this former navy DI lady teacher in gifted kid algebra [so already a year ahead] yell at me for asking questions; she wasn’t going to ‘hold my hand’ thru the homework, which was quite literally her fucking job
In the US children get shot and killed at school on a monthly basis and all the government can think to do is age-gate porn and ban books
