I’m not saying apple will do anything about it, just that they will let the cops know what is causing the reboots if asked.

The police could just ask Apple, it isn’t like they are going to have some secret reboot process that they would hide from the police.

Wabi-sabi is about being close to perfection, but not reaching it. Basically the same concept as hand made things having small imperfections instead of being cookie cutter.

It isn’t about apathy and filth.

Doing something woth your brain leeps it working better, just like how physical exercise works. If you traded gaming for doing nothing, that would make the occasional time you do something feel like a lot of work.

It is also possible that you have some level of depression or your brain adjusted to all the stimulation and other things aren’t triggering the same feeling. It could lots of things.

The first step to try any of those for things is to find an activity that is mentally stimulating in some way. Not like a full dive into calculus, but maybe learning something new like a different hobby or maybe games that aren’t as engaging for long periods of time. I would recommend games with a short completion time and no grinding or rewards if that is what you found to be addicting.

Notr: I didn’t stop computer gaming but I did drop another time consuming hobby and it took some adjustment to find something else.

The dog on the barbie is a saterical website by a vegan, so it is neither ‘the rage’ nor a reason for anything to get spicy.

Obama had a winning message and he failed to follow through on a lot of it. It was about hope and more importantly CHANGE.

Dems failed spectacularly by not getting rid of the filibuster when their supermajority had a couple dissenters. If they had actually followed through instead of letting Republicans obstruct when they had two houses and the oval office they could have shown that change and kept the momentum going. Well, if they actually sold their success, which they are also terrible at.

Instead they held onto their safety blanket that the Republicans neutered to stack the courts, and will absolutely throw out if they get the House too so they can pass all the terrible laws they want.

Dems screwed themselves.

Because Dem voters have always needed something to vote for, voting against works for Republicans.

Technically Republicans are voting for something when when they are voting to destroy the government. Their goal just happens to be destructive.

I kinda thought they would learn from Obama’s success in promoting hope and change, but no, they are right back to trying to peel off Republican voters instead of motivating the unengaged voters like he did.

I was excited when Harris first announced and started calling out Trump on his bullshit. Then she was non-committal in actually withholding arms from Israel due to their constantly violating the conditions of being sent those weapons. Then she said that burning a flag was unAmerican or something close enough. Then it went to the step of trying to appeal to Republican voters instead of trying to motivate undecided and apathetic voters, who are the people that helped Obama win with his campaign of hope and change.

I can completely understand someone who has given up because the Dems are just slow walking the decline, not actually improving anything. It is so fucking demoralizing that the Dems can’t learn anything.

That seems completely serious and not satire at all.

Since I never saw the videos, my assumption was that ‘wants another baby’ was wanting to sleep around with multiple partners as in ‘I love you baby’, not having a literal baby. The six pointed stars and the cradle is pretty fucking clear it is about a Jewish woman sleeping around to have multiple babies, and yeah that is apparently one of those ‘Jews are taking over’ racist stereotypes.

Now I’m guessing that the Sign is a swastika.

Thanks for the link, I’m gonna go throw that album in the trash and feel like a jackass for not catching on earlier.

Israel will inflict a grievous wound on Hamas, deep enough that it will take another generation before conflict resumes, and go back to expanding their settlements.

Expanding settlements is continuing the violent conflict, just not as open warfare.

Immigration was one of the most decisive issues…

Red Dawn

Plus the orange jackass is going to fuck over the economy with massive tariffs and then give tax breaks to the 1% while removing the worker protections and social services the working class relies on.

The four horsemen of obesity!

For most stuff like brake pads, wipers, or bulbs I have used Autozone or O’Reilly, not really picky about either. When I needed the occasional expensive thing like batteries or an alternator I would check prices first and pick the one that was lower for the one I wanted.

This was mostly due to needing the thing right away, so I’m paying a little more for convenience.

I also used LKQ a couple times over a decade ago for junkyard parts like a headlight housing that was damaged.

Haven’t had to do the expensive stuff for quite a few years, just wipers and the occasional brake pads.

They took all the parts people complained about in the beta and dialed them up. Especially the predatory monetization.

The messaging needs to be simple and address their stupid concerns, not cater to their stupid solutions. Campaigning on improving the immigration process to handle the influx instead of mass deportations can be kept simple and successful without being terrible and stupid.

He said Project 2025 was great back in 2022 before the backlash, it isn’t like he is consistent.

Same justification he will use for a nationwide abortion ban and locking up his political opponents.
