I have never been so BETRAYED.
I also have never been so ashamed and humiliated.
I’m also a US military veteran. (> 15 years) And elected public official. (>3years)
volodymyr zelenskyy is the strongest man alive for sitting through this utter bullshit without swearing or punching the fuckers or angry crying. fuck trump and fuck everyone who did not vote for harris and fuck russia.
like i can’t even read this bit of news without feeling humiliated and i’m not even fucking there.
i am terrified that i will have to sit back and watch the loss of ukraine in front of my eyes.
IN THE REAL WORLD, WHEN WOULD THIS EVEN BE REALLY CONSIDERED ……
Just do not understand. 😳. ☹️
Having been around electric fences, of various voltages, face it it’s just going to happen. Ahhhhh, Only for experimentation purposes, I’m also a very scientific person.
Just some interesting frost patterns. Yes my windows in early May. That’s weather.
And that’s the SORRY truth of the matter.
That’s all I will say about the matter.
Yep, we work our entire careers to lie to you
I FEEL YOU MAN. !
From my time on the farm and living this.
Slimy and so totally hard to move when you as the person has to move them. AAAUUUGGGGHHHHH. !
In the end , they are cute.
Newborn calves are:
- very cute
Newborn calves are also:
- very slimy
- not aware that they have legs
- not aware that their legs all work at the same time
- unsure what shapes are or how eyes work really or what a cow looks like
- totally useless at yielding to body pressure
- completely willing to follow anything warm, and taller than them, provided that it moves and smells kind of like a cow. Even if the only reason it smells like a cow is because it was touching them.
- still pretty cute
You cannot imagine how much I wish this!!!!!
I started with computers, hacking a Commodore 64, building my own board for new chips,
When there were no mice to click. ! You had to type everything. And write your code to make it work.
When I got a power Mac and access to real processing chips, I thought I was in heaven.
Now there are so many barriers to doing any of that, and they tell me this makes it better for me !
NO, IT DOESN’T. !
When I actually buy something I get to do whatever the fuck I want with it, because I bought it. !
I take complete responsibility for doing risky things. That’s all on me.
I miss the old, good internet, but I don’t want to bring it back.
I want a new, good internet. One where users can’t be locked in because we make it legal to:
• reverse-engineer products and services, so you can leave a social media platform but still send and receive messages from the people you leave behind;
• jailbreak your devices so you can remove antifeatures like surveillance, ink-locking or repair-blocking; • move your media and files out of the silo whence they originated and into any player you want.
I want a new, good internet where we constrain the conduct of tech companies, banning unfair labor practices, deceptive marketing, corporate hostage-taking and other forms of rent-extraction.
I want a new, good internet where it’s both illegal to impose bossware on your employees, and where those employees can legally hack the bossware their bosses shove down their throats.
I want a new, good internet where creative workers and their audiences can reliably connect with one another, where news reporting isn’t held hostage to extractive processes.
I want a new, good internet where we seize the means of computation so that the digital infrastructure that connects our romantic, personal, political, civic, economic, educational and family and social lives is operated by and for the people who use it.
-Enshitternet: The old, good internet deserves a new, good internet
I hate that this came from tictocky, but no better advertisement for physics and older people’s experiences.practical applications of their the knowledge. They drink and know things.
And he thought mom was naive....
We only cohabitate with nature, it’s the greatest thought fallacy that we have dominion over Nature. Man has been here only a very short period of time, man will be replaced quite easily because we do not recognize how to sustainably live in relationship with nature. Nature will continue on over men’s bones and vast achievements. Nature does not have a ego.
You often see this kind of comment made after someone is attacked by a shark or bear. And it took me a long time to understand, but that is a thoroughly wrong headed thought process.
We don’t enter sharks, bears, raccoons, or anything else’s environment. And they do not enter ours. We are a much a part of nature and the environment as any other living thing, and vice versa. You, me, everyone has a much call and cause to swim in the ocean or walk in the mountains any other living thing.
We keep separating ourselves from nature and the environment to the point we’re we get a God complex thinking we need to “save” it. Or, on the other end of the spectrum “it ain’t mine, so fuck it”. And because of it, we do really dumb shit to our own home.
They say all politics is local. Well, so is nature. And when you separate yourself from it, it becomes someone or something else problem, or responsibility. But the problem is, that ain’t the case. You cannot remove yourself from it, it is the natural world, and we are all part of it.
We have a much right and responsibility to hug trees and not pollute, as we do to fill a deep freeze with venison. We have as much right and responsibility to be good stewards of our home (nature) as we do to utilize the resources contained in it. And until we stop viewing tree huggers as hippy commies and hunters as evil murderers our house (nature) won’t be getting any cleaner or any better.
Until we stop thinking about nature in absolutes, we will continue to find it harder and harder to maintain, and live in, our home.
