    They are focusing on enshittification

  • A guy like Holsey has incredible strength of will. Has surmounted challenges that I know would have caused me to give up shrink in fear and/or just die.

    What the fuck is he so afraid of ?

  • ... just like with Russian diplomacy

  • And Alex Lifeson would be Prime Minister

  • Bless you again for not being religious. Always refreshing to encounter an adult.
