It usually starts with a Vaush video. I swear, if you click on Vaush, the algorithm rightly thinks you're a right wing POS and feeds you more.

I'll be frank as a person that has been on dating websites before they were apps... people often go on them for small validation and then realize they have no time to meet others when they have to prep for work. It's gotten worse after covid lockdowns.

I'm on Grindr and Feeld mostly and Hinge sometimes. I'm mostly looking for casual sex buddies and not relationships.

I'm not gonna say the "it's not you it's me" line nor its inverse. Because the honest answer is: it's not us, it's capitalism.

I've had to cancel so many times on people because I sometimes get home too tired to move after work. And have had people cancel as well. Nobody admits that fatigue but it's understood.

And keep in mind I'm queer, bi, relatively attractive and literally looking to hand out blowjobs. Sometimes people are too tired to even get their dicks sucked

So don't think you're doing things completely wrong. The hellscape makes it hard to meet new people.

I've been on lemmygrad since the John Brown incident and since genzedong was quarantined. I'm on lemm.ee now and don't want hexbear to leave.

People gotta stop being so sensitive about losers online. Sometimes it seems like people are discovering liberalism for the first time in their lives. Like do you even exist in the world? Liberalism is the default in the world.

This is freaking hilarious! Even Twitter knows how blue checkmarks are now badges of shame

I thought this was gonna be a post about feeling the burden of wage slavery and debt necessity, which is a real thing. But you're right, it sounds like they're upset because they can't say the n-word on Facebook lol

This is such a quality question. But a lot of people are just naming their favorite movies in the comments.

What you want is Moore's Watchmen. It is a deconstruction and reconstruction of the Superhero as an American trope.

What I loved about HBO's continuation is that they focused on how white supremacy is intertwined with heroism, just as Moore wrote in his original IP.

Then you got the Zack Snyder movie which was mostly, "ooh, look at these people with powers fight crime". None of the impending doom of the fall of society from nuclear war and/or fascism, and how the heroes were pointless because they were the ones pushing forward this doom. "Who watches the Watchmen?" etc.

He didn't want twitter in the first place. He made some legally binding comments and was legally required to purchase it after meme-ing an offer and thinking he could get away with it lol. Now he's suing the lawyers that made him buy Twitter.

Musk is not a very smart man.

That's literally the first thing I thought of while looking at that picture. There's no good reason for this. Bananas serve many purposes from green to yellow to black. Moreover, that "one per day" gimmick won't even give you the same ripeness.

That top down explanation is pretty funny and accurate. Everyone is a Tankie to fascists.

I have downloaded version 17.2 that works fine. However, versions 18.0, 18.1.2, 18.1.3, and 18.5 all close when starting up.

I'll add that the 18x versions were downloaded from audionews while the 17x version was downloaded from IPT.

Anybody know of a verifiably working 18x version for windows 11?

Holy fuck, I just wanted to read this article and the website nearly gave me an aneurysm! Who the fuck ever thought an uncloseable animated border ad would be a good idea?

Someone pirate the article for the rest of us. Jesus
