We don’t care. We know why they come and we welcome them. Bring your straight male friends. Bring your bachelorette parties - they can become annoying but we know what happens when you finally feel safe and uninhibited. And at the same time, there are economic rules at play. We go to find other gay men for various objectives. If it becomes difficult to find them or if the market feels saturated with women and straight men, we will go to a different space where there are fewer women and straight men and we will feel some amount of annoyance that we had to do so.

How much wind would a wind turbine make if a wind turbine could make wind?

Maybe I shouldn’t get up and go to work today…

You are so right about that. You deserve a day off. Let me forge a doctor’s note and send it to your boss.

^This will happen exactly one time.

Can I see?

Fucking creative.

But that’s not who is being targeted with the changes Backblaze has made. By silently excluding sync folders, they’re casting a wide net and hoping it will catch those who use workarounds. It might, but in the process it reveals their comfort with deceptive business practices and harms users of the backup service who are not using workarounds.

Are they boosting their AI business in anticipation of breaking encryption and then training their models on everyone’s data? That’s what I would assume of a company I no longer trust.

How is that abuse? “Unlimited” is a pretty audacious plan to offer. Maybe Backblaze shouldn’t offer something impossible.

I just want shorter sentences. On second offences we give them reincarnation.

Were you not watching the past 20 years? If not, you missed the warnings. Pelosi gave an 8 hour filibuster speech just in 2018. Should they have been grabbing guns and throwing fists? The aggressor and instigator has always been the right-wing. If you don’t see it, you tuned in too late or bought into their propaganda. Or, like the left, you believe the anti-american propaganda that positions the Dems as controlled opposition.

Bar the Nazis or it’s a Nazi bar.

Have you ever walked over a cattle guard? It’s creepy as fuck.

Putin was in his 30s or so when the Soviet Union dissolved. He’s an opportunist who saw the profit potential in a huge fire sale of the country’s economy. His wealth is roughly estimated to be $200 billion, all of it stolen from the people in various rackets since coming to power. The Russian people saw their country “lose” to the USA and, demoralized, they were disempowered to do anything about it.

Today the USA parallels this structure, with conservatives leading the defeatist, fatalist belief that we’ve “lost” to China, a narrative Trump fuels every chance he gets as it provides a shield from what he’s really doing. Every single crazy thing he does is a distraction from the financial racket being run by his family, who faded from the news cycle as soon as his second term began.

Thanks for the reminder, nomorehappinessforlife

Bringing him back from the dead. With Orban gone, he’s craving the familiar nonconsensual touch of a mentor.

What could possibly still be reserved for the?

Arrogance is thinking you’re smarter than propaganda. You are not. Your position is reactive and oppositional and ripe for mind control tactics. You are so easy to manipulate, in fact, that in one paragraph I’m going to make your blood pressure rise and flow to your amygdala.

Minority populations do struggle with high rates of addiction because of trauma. It’s just not the argument bigots think it is.

Human rights is not a moral issue. If hatred were an opinion worth platforming, Nazis would have built movements fighting for acceptance rather than trying to violently force their view upon us. The fight for equal rights by queer people has existed for 1000s of years because it’s an identity. It is endemic to our species and you can’t stamp out identity the way you can with hatred that hides in a deplorable subset of majority populations.

Your question employs a false right-wing premise. When your needs are taken care of, you won’t want to be high all day. The desire to work or contribute to a greater cause is endemic to our species.

Let’s hope OP grows up.
