Who is wasting resources on this? Seems a bit pointless.

Also, I think its rather perverted that if someone makes it clear they want to be left alone/anonymous, the society/media declares “NO!” and goes to insane lengths to figure out who they are.

Same thing happened with Lordi, the Finnish metal band. When they won eurovision, the main guy said “I would appreciate if we could stay anonymous, or at least not have our real faces plastered all over.” So of course the largest gossip magazine in Finland felt the need to plaster his face on the cover of their stupid magazine.

Though that did lead to a funny thing… There was a “campaign” to boycott the magazine called “käännä Seiska” - “turn Seiska.” My friend didn’t get the full idea, since “käännä” is a slang for stealing. So he stole a bunch of those magazines from a shop, only realized he was supposed to turn them upside down not steal them, after he got home with a pile of Seiska magazines.

Ah, that does warm my European heart.

The world is on fire, climate change looks to be a thing that will just happen, wars, everything getting more expensive with no hope in sight… but at least the US has less bombings!

I get that things have been shitty all the time, but generally the direction has been towards better things. I dunno if we reached a point where things are as good as it gets and getting better is more and more difficult, but I personally feel that things are in some sort of a turning point. I know I’m a grumpy fuck, but I’ve really tried to always look on the bright side of life (whistle) but I haven’t really found anything worth looking forwards to. Plaargh.

I have no qualms about banning negative, bad-faith or douchy losers to save people from blocking them. And if a community is bad enough, I’ll ban the whole community.

This is excellent. I’ve never understood the attitude that people should tolerate arseholes, because of what, free speech? Nah, bugger off with that silliness. I’ve moderated some places over the years and I’ve been told that I ban people too easily, but I’ve also been told how nice and wholesome the places were. Its pretty clear to me that having a low tolerance to arseholes is positive for the community.

What credibility?

Mostly stuff relating to Ukraine. Though I do have some complaints about him with that as well. But on the whole he’s handled Ukraine related things agreeable.

Look up “brief aan de Nederlanders” ffom 2017.

I don’t speak Dutch so I’ll skip, I’ll take your word for it. I don’t respect him at all anymore, so there’s really not much to gain to go through translating that stuff.

Rutte has been burning his credibility in my eyes at a alarming rate.

I get that he needs to do at least some level of ass kissing towards the US but he does it with his tongue very far up in there and with a weird eagerness. I don’t understand what his strategy is with trump.

Your headlight level adjuster might be stuck or broken. Have your mechanic check that it works.

Hear hear.

Its the only website in my adblocker whitelist.

My electricity comes from hydro, wind, solar and nuclear. I do have a petrol engine car but luckily its a Peugeot so the engine is broken and I have no plans of fixing it. My city has excellent public transportation. I have a bicycle. Also my grocery shop is 2 minute walk away.

I’m pretty lucky.

After deep consideration, I’d say you were the rare “Angel (she/her)@piefed.blahaj.zone” type student

Its such a weird thing to do. Especially when you click the translated link and it opens a page that is not translated. So if they think they are “helping” people who don’t know the language, how exactly does it help that they translate the title and half a sentence in the search results.

Who would have thought that burning a shit ton of fossil fuels in order to bomb oil and gas infrastructure would be bad for environment.

Dog I hate this world so much.

I guess its good that you didn’t give a click to wsws.org, no one should. But you’ll be pleased to hear that the title is bullshit

I love Ecosia because I love trees and will keep using them until I can afford kagi or something.

But one thing that drives me through the wall… If I search something in my native language, because I want results that are in my native language, google/bing (which ecosia uses) decides to translate reddit posts for me and Ecosia slaps them to the top of the results. Its rather annoying.

Do you mean the picture of the woman, in an article talking about how this particular woman is AI generated?

No. It is not a real picture.

I just wished they would be smart enough to understand how stupid they are.

lol what a lad, good ol’ Keith.

I had no idea poking was still a thing. I thought it disappeared like a decade ago. I haven’t been in facebook since 2011 lol

Yup, that too

The most difficult part of it is… talking about it makes me seem like an incel :D I always feeli like I need to make it extremely clear that I’m not unhappy, bitter or whatever. Its completely my decision and I’m fine with it. I think there’s people who just cant understand or believe that someone might be fine being alone.

Yeah I mean I don’t pretend I don’t feel lonely and wanting of affection at times. But I dunno, I’m such a miserable prick anyways, no need to subject anyone to dealing with me on a daily basis :D
