So I’m a relatively young and healthy person. Im lucky enough to live in a city with an extensive parks system, and go hiking very regularly.
I find that it’s fun, enjoyable and invigorating because I’m outside, and there are things to see. As a result, the fact that it’s exercise becomes secondary.
How are you excercising? Because if it’s going to a gym, or walking on a machine… Yeah I’d be miserable too.
Blazing Saddles single handedly killed an entire (racist as fuck) film genre
Back in my day, we just told Cleverbot to suck our dicks

You mean like expanding the United States’ illegal drone assassination program?
That status quo comfort you’re yearning for is exactly what lead us here in the first place.
That stays quo was built on incredible amounts of violence inflicted on the global south, and now the imperial boomerang is coming back around.
So no, I don’t wish we had ‘a bit of that status quo’.

Search engines are getting worse, in large part because of AI…
Bob Ross was the one who was in the military.
As a beardless person, everything being sticky is also miserable.
And they always give you a single, pitiful, little napkin with it!
It’s so obviously intentional… Now log off and do something to feed your community, like these soyfacing comrades are
I’ve always thought the sentiment from George Jackson, that a revolutionary is motivated by “perfect love and perfect hate” to be an interesting and succinct expression of this. He frames it like a dialectic, and in a lot of ways, it is.
Fred Rogers was the host of a beloved American children’s program, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.
I believe reruns still get aired on a lot of public television stations, but it’s very much the blueprint for later personality driven children’s content, like Ms. Rachel
If it helps, you see, he was “in government” at the time so he had no choice but to be a shit eating sycophant who told the president whatever he thought he wanted to hear.
“Just following orders” is very famously not a defense for being complicit in a genocide
I think our inhumane health insurance system predates Trump being president by at least a little bit…
Hell yeah! This rules!
The United States has some of the longest election cycles, maybe in the world, but definitely among western liberal democracies.
So yes, the literal act itself takes a day. But everything surrounding that day is taken up by planning for the next election, enough robs people of other kinds of political engagement, by being such a massive time and energy sink.
I grew up in a country that insisted these two guys were somewhere to the left of Fidel Castro.
Your post makes me think you somehow believed them…
Join a Union? Feed the homeless? Organize your fellow tenants? Actually attend a city council meeting?
You’re smugly confirming your allegiance to the liberal death cult, because your only conception of “political engagement” is voting in a system that is crumbling before our very eyes.
And no, just voting wouldn’t have stopped that decay. Nothing in the world is static, and 1000 years of Obama wouldn’t stop the larger political-economic factors that are fueling fascism, political polarization, and civil unrest.
Cool, go vote, especially if it’s in your local and state elections that no one actually pays attention to. But disengage from the rat race, and do something with an actual impact in your community.

CloudStream is good if you watch anime.
The folks on r/piracy seem to like an app called Stremio, but I haven’t got that one set up yet.
I have a Jellyfin client.
SmartTube Next is an ad free Youtube client for the firestick.
And then I also have Kanopy and Hoopla which let me access media via my public library card.
