Perhaps I live in a bubble of pessimism, but — isn't the looming collapse of civilization well-known, and essentially a certainty?

[–] DougHolland@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Well, nobody certainly didn't see that coming.

It was probably never true, but for many years I foolishly thought that 'bankruptcy' meant 'going out of business.' That's what it means if a mom-and-pop restaurant or shop declares bankruptcy. When companies get ginormous, though, they never go away. Rite Aid will 'reorganize' itself with fresh investors, and it'll still be a shitty drug store long after everyone reading this is dead.

This is a worry and problem I've never had and don't really understand. One of the joys of social media (including the fediverse) is that you're judged by what you say and who you are, not what you look like. As a lifelong fat slob and general ugly person, I appreciate that.

I welcome anyone bright enough to chat intelligently, regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, gender, religion, disability, age, etc.

Hockey has been dead to me since the NHL made this announcement.

It is folly to cover Scalise — or most republicans — in this way, as if what they're doing is normal.

There are things going on that are less important than which monstrous Republican is Speaker of the House and which office Nancy Pelosi's desk is in, but Republicans are fucking the world over in many, many far more important ways.

Jamie Dimon is a wealthy old fart who never worked a day in his plush lazy life. What he says interests me less than analyzing my neighbor's dog's poop as its eaten by bugs.

Then it has to be better.

And maybe some time before he dies, let Zayn Al-Abidin Muhammad Husayn out of this American dungeon.

Whoa. That totally Keanues me. I had thought of the lack of infinite scrolling as a bug, a feature I'd hoped was in development, but this srsly rejiggers my ears and everything in between.

I already spend too much time online, so ... I'm with @dessalines@lemmy.ml — no infinite scrolling, please.
