I admit, it almost worked on me. I was a little scared to go, and I left my phone and identifying information at home. I also brought a 360 degree camera in case shit happened, figured I’d have a better chance of getting it on camera.
But instead it was a massive party, just fun people, hilarious signs and a truly pleasant and enjoyable walk through the city. It really helped break some of my cynicism; some, not all.
I can’t wait for the next one.
Just leaving MPLS, huge turnout. We were near the front of the March. Made it all the way around and back to the beginning and folks were still lined up to even start.
I am less cynical right now than I was earlier today.
I tried that, they cut me off.
Fucking hell, I didn’t even notice the wig but here I am, fully clowned.
They will all be rich and in positions of power. This kind of shit gets celebrated in this country. Once things die down the outrage machine will kick in and they will say that private, out of context conversations don’t matter, that is unless the can come up with a barely plausible story that it was all fabricated (they are already trying to say it was AI).
It won’t matter that it’s transparent and obvious to everyone. Most people don’t pay enough attention and will forget all about it. It will seem like a distant memory and the “reasonable” people will lecture us about the necessity of forgiveness.
Then they will be caught with an underaged intern or some shit and nothing will come of it since they are just public people with pressures on them that we just can’t understand.
Yeah, I’m a little cynical.
I work with John, my role is as the replacement for another John. I’m trying to be open and fix the issues, but they just want John back, and the other John who’s here, is so territorial, even when I try to help, he just tries to undermine and fight me.
Fucking John.
Oh, I agree, nothing wrong with mint. I just like the fact that the LMDE version is Debian based and works with everything I’ve thrown it at.
Figure proof of they ever decide to switch away from Ubuntu and mainline LMDE. Probably won’t happen, but makes me feel better anyway :).
Seconding LMDE. It’s Debian based rather than Ubuntu so no canonical to un-f. It’s my favorite distro. LMDE for desktop, vanilla Debian for servers.
LMDE for future proofing and stability. Sort of a comedy option, but it’s my distro of choice. As easy as Mint, as stable as Debian. I just don’t trust Ubuntu and since it’s a Debian based distro, why not take one more step…
Honestly don’t know, I was making a very timely covid related joke.
Have you ever tried getting certain folks to wear a mask?
I’m in the same boat. I love that it makes self hosting easier for me. It does what I need and even gives me a small extra measure of security. I admit, I use it because I’m lazy, I could do it without Cloudflare and do for some services. So, I figure if it truly becomes urgent or intolerable I can drop it from the stack.

It is now for me too :).
which is a nonconformist
Thank you for this, it puts it in terms that make a lot of sense. This really helps explain a phenomenon I see so often. I know a few folks who are certainly not pro-trump, but are very anti-political. I’ve been told that I need to shut up, and things would be fine once the next election rolls around.
These folks might not like what’s happening, but they are fine conforming to it.
Maybe it’s a me problem, but I think it’s going to take a little more work than the bare minimum.
The chart has spoken.
My American GE dishwasher just broke and I ordered a part from their US based site. The 17$ part ships from China, I have no idea what’s going to happen. Guessing I’ll be handwashing dishes from here on.
Nah, I mean that even thought they look so picture perfect, my brain just doesn’t see them as real, and parks them in the same category as a cartoon.
Whereas a practical effect, might look hilariously bad, but sometime a jello filled, papier-mache head exploding, is the perfect amount of gore to make me wince.
My theory is that since practical effects ultimately rely on physics of the world we occupy, that despite their unpolished look, they feel more real. The hyper realistic, but completely reality breaking effects of today just hit the same way cartoons do.
Speaking of cartoons, I love finding the shortcuts that animators would take, there’s something so artistic about how they did it.
I am just so much more engaged when I can watch a movie while also trying to figure out how they pulled off an effect.
Get the he fuck out of here with this bullshit. This is exactly the fucking problem with dems. They fail, so they just look for how to copy the last successful gop strategy.
We see through it you fucking morons, this is why your polling is in the toilet. Instead of supporting winning, successful candidates with resonating messaging, they form committees, and find the next one in line to support.
We’re so fucking cooked if this is what they are coming up with.
