“What’s King Charles gonna do about it?” Winnie the Pooh chuckles earnestly as he sips the world’s finest oolong.

Yeah, this is just a terrible idea. The risk is far greater than any potential reward you might be getting.

It isn’t radio though because hardly anyone listens to the radio anymore. It’s probably because there is a practically small amount of radio listening that people have started grabbing onto anything that sounds basic and easily digestible. The less they’re challenged, the better they feel about it.

I got PS Plus Premium in February for $120/year, months later they increased the price significantly. I don’t intend to renew my subscription, but now I simply don’t intend to purchase Sony games or digital media anymore. They’ve done this before, can’t remember when. They’re enforcing the argument for piracy by stealing media from their customers.

Not sure what’s worse, NFTs or the absolute lack of concern most who invest in them have for things like the wellbeing of others

I love how they point out the psychological effects that karma has on people. It gamifies the process, but it also makes people compare themselves with others to a degree that’s simply toxic. It’s forced competition for the sake of content farming, we’re people not livestock.

The drama, Microsoft dealing with their own antitrust claims in other realms and here they are spilling the tea on Google. Grab the popcorn, the big tech corporations are going at it.

The same seasoned Democrats that stacked the primaries in her favor? The 2016 election was the first time I had a real voice in an election and it felt like it was just vacuumed away. The candidate who seemed the most appropriate and the most qualified got swept under the rug in favor of the shit-throwers. She wasn’t perfect, she was a better terrible than Trump.

In 2020 the Democrats scrambled for a viable candidate and somehow Joe Biden was the best they could give us, and it was an absolute gamble. His victory in the 2020 election was dangerously overstated and the danger of a repeat of 2016 in 2024 was ignored.

No, we need to properly destroy the foundation they stand on. Why do these supposed freedom-loving individuals fall for the rhetoric of fascists? Why is it that it only took a couple generations to forget how badly fascism affected our world?

I wonder how much functionality of Scrivener you could get in Obsidian. I found an article about someone setting their Obsidian vault up to run a workflow similar to Scrivener.
