  • Well, Netanyahu has surely found out something about all that fucking around and propping up of Hamas he was doing.

    But Palestine, even Gaza, ain’t the same as Hamas, you do know that… right? Or are you suggesting tens of thousands of people including babies and children are all Hamas?

    Because from where I’m sitting, Israel is fucking around and just murdering people and they and their supporters should definitely not be surprised when they find out people are calling them the murderers they are being.

    But also, what happened before Oct. 7? Sometimes out of the blue I remember that man and his son from like 20 years ago, hiding from the bullets that found them anyway, killing the son… shit’s been fucked there for a long time. You can’t live in a paradise keeping an underclass around to abuse, persecute, murder… that shit always comes back. Speaking from somewhere along Sherman’s March to the Sea, just saying… FAFO is right, but make sure you’re taking in the whole picture.





  • Surely you meant sweet potato pie! Apples don’t really grow down here.

    But yeah, the southern heritage one should want to claim ought to be more about shrimp and grits and less about confederates and slavers. Those traitors are history, but no decent person would claim that hateful shit as their damn heritage. Unfortunately, we ain’t about to run outta folks lacking decency anytime soon.



  • Never suffered any inconvenience? Like, have you seen how she travels? But also…

    What expertise do you need to say “stop adding carbon to the atmosphere” at this point? Everyone lives here, we all should have something to say about what is inevitably coming down the pike - especially the young. You just come across as someone who has everything to lose wanting those with nothing to lose to sit down, shut up, buckle up, and just be grateful for the ride to whatever hell we’re heading to.








  • No, I don’t know any of that. Some of those words are familiar, tho. Sorry, I ain’t had a Windows partition on my own personal computer since… damn I forgot what the one before 7 was called - Vista! We still had the family gaming PC, and I stayed buying games during steam and gog sales (even tho I mostly played on consoles - Nintendos and PlayStations only, lol) but I guess I haven’t actually been on it since Windows 8 and I hated it so much! But it’s gone now anyway, cannibalized for parts. Only 1 kid left at home, he’s got his own PC, and I don’t even know what version of windows he’s running. It’s hilarious, go back a few decades and I was free windows tech support for everyone, but now I don’t even know how to Windows.

    And look, I’m probably just a trash monster. Like, I’m playing Just Cause 4 on my PS4 right now. And I play plenty of other trash (but also some good games) on my Garuda (it’s based on arch, btw - installed by my husband who has only ever installed windows in his life, with very minimal input from me) gaming PC. I also have the steam deck, but once my son donated parts after his latest PC upgrade, the steam deck just mostly gets picked up to do a little update every so often - but I’m about to go on a trip (and the switch has already been claimed)! To be fair to the steam deck, I mostly don’t even power on my gaming PC, as I really love my PS4 (I can’t stand the PS5 and usually only get on it to help my grandson when he’s here) and my rarely-turned-off MX Linux PC (I don’t hate the KDE of Garuda, but there’s a reason I use an XFCE-based distro as my daily driver).

    I might be a gaming addict. But Microsoft hasn’t had anything to offer me since like, George W Bush was president. And even then, it was steam then gog who really had stuff to offer me on the PC. And in the console department, they ain’t ever had anything I’ve wanted, maybe my hands are too small or something but I’ve always hated the Xbox controller.
