Rich people don't want to give anything up.

Assholes don't want their out-group to have anything nice. Even if it means they suffer.

Many people don't know shit about fuck, and they're just trying to get through the week.

The dark urge, as a warlock. Shit. Could be worse.

(Side note: I keep starting and abandoning Baldur's gate 3 because I really do not enjoy DND as a rule system.)

My dad used to rant about how government should be run like a business,

Anyone who sincerely believes that is too fucking ignorant and or stupid to be taken seriously. They're a hazard to themselves and their polity.

In the King James Version, this is translated as:

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Management are assholes and idiots.

Nothing will get better without demands. People need to organize.

But if I've learned anything from history, it's that the ownership class would rather murder all of their employees than give a few dollars more a day.

Right? I often like being around people. I don't want to do it in the fucking office

Weak shitty men know on some level they're weak shitty men. They lash out and desperately cling to toys to prop up their failing ego.

Happily on linux for a while now. No problems. kde desktop looks almost the same as windows, anyway. Fuss with it less than windows.

My current partner I got to try FromSoft games. Sekiro did not go well for them.

Whenever a chat bot is aggressively presented on a website, I like to ask it how to disable all AI features. Often it will tell me to click on menu options that don't exist.

Buying drm free music is a good long term plan. You build a library you can share with friends and family.

I say this all the time, but a lot of problems are directly downstream from assholes who don't do work making decisions. ✨ Capitalism! ✨
