nothing about this is amusing, but wasting your money is better than using your money to oppress you and minorities

hell yknow what, literally burning your money is better than having the same amount funnel into corruption

i gonna make an assumption here and say probably EMP resistance?

you clearly don’t have a beard mate… i use 3 tools to trim my facial hair, and 1 of them is a safety razor… it is not an all-purpose tool: it does exactly 1 thing, and only 1 thing

safety razor isn’t even slightly comparable and scissors… that’d take me like half an hour to properly trim my beard and it’d probably be patchy and uneven… i prefer the 5min it takes me now and i’ll pay for it thanks

the point of pride is it’s about visibility: relationships in pop culture are almost entirely hetero… you just don’t see queer relationships at the ratio they exist in society… pride is all about celebrating the existence of queer existence and our relationships and culture

if you add similar things for heterosexuals, it’s saying “we have everything most of the time and this 1 time where you’re seen, we want to be part of that as well”… or worse, want to draw attention away from it by being bigger

i hate that all that’s a thing for you

idk i think our aussie plugs are a good middle ground: they’re about mid way between UK and US in size, are not reversible, don’t have a fuse (but laws govern the type of current things can handle: extension cords MUST be 10A which covers a standard 10A home circuit - i believe there’s some extra built into the rating too), power boards the same, and have a 10A safety switch built into them which prevents daisy chaining over the current just like the fuse

repairability probably not so good, buuuuut i’ve never had a cable break so maybe we do something different with the construction that solves that need?

australia has the opposite in many ways… we have a thing called tall poppy syndrome where we internally believe everyone should be equal so much that we sometimes tend to tear people down for doing better than others

a middle ground would be nice

new headline:

“proven nazi, elon musk, discounts overpriced cars to make people forget he’s a nazi”

you’ve probably paid less for your own healthcare, and helped to pay for others’ at the same time

i think that socialised healthcare tends to have better health outcomes and wait times are both not that bad, and at worst a minor inconvenience

i don’t have anything to add really, i just wanted to say that i think they’re all very valid, and excellently made points and i agree :)

also like… literally the reason for tariffs: because people want international goods and nobody wants yours

i’m sure if we have palm rejection worked out in tablets, ass cheek rejection is absolutely future table-screen tech

this is meant to be read without the emotional loading to the words that we’ve been conditioned with: ie X is implicitly bad… these are just words, whose meaning has more depth than what they actually define

terrorism is

the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims

violence is

an act of physical force that causes or is intended to cause harm

arson is violence

and this particular act of violence is intended to achieve political or ideological aims (musk is a political figure albeit not an official government employee, and this is in response to his public political acts)

now, i’d argue it’s not “against non-combatants”, but perhaps it is? is destruction of a persons property constitute violence against them? it’s at least psychological - trying to scare/influence for sure

let’s not kid ourselves though: it is what it is… it’s just ridiculous that this is what they pursue while pardoning jan 6 offenders… the issue isn’t that they’re labelling this domestic terrorism. the issue is that it’s singled out because fElon asked daddy dictator

“both foreign and domestic” i guess is the repurposed phrase aye?

hmmm interesting idea… pass fascist trigger laws that automatically sanction countries for certain kinds of backsliding. not specifics - gotta leave it vague so that fascists can’t just technically work around it

socialised healthcare! where everything’s free and the wait times don’t matter!

He has experience with dumb politicians from his time …
