Ugh, living in a forest like that sounds idyllic

finnie,

Unbearably frustrating. We really need to abandon cars as a concept.

finnie,

The 2xl was fantastic. I’m on the 6 now and I miss how light it was, but the higher refresh rate is nice.

finnie,

I’m such a sucker for fingerless gloves 👏👏

finnie,

I don’t even think the meme is about communism as much as it is just venting about how corps turned free-software into the panopticon it is today.

But Idc if Torvalds is a Marxist bc I’m not either, but marx wrote about how the proletariat should own stocks, so that isn’t even disqualifying tho.

And tbh I think most “marxists” just adopt that term because our political discourse is so corrupted that anyone who thinks that we shouldn’t curb-stomp an Amazon employee for wanting a bathroom break is treated like they’re Mao anyway.

finnie,

I’m sure they think it’s because they were so annoying, lmao. Like they think they did something.

finnie,

…but capitalism is so good, things only get better!!! The market is too regulated, is the problem

finnie,

That’s wild considering we’ve almost used up all of the fossil fuel reserves on earth. So good luck to this guy after 2060 I guess?

That’s the irony.

But Density means communism to them so they’re suddenly fine with regulations and taxes that prop up an unsustainable suburban ponzi scheme because that’s the lie sold about the American Dream.

When they see how unaffordable housing has become they say, “good, my house is more expensive.”

finnie,

Is that quantum or is there another rewrite I don’t know about?

finnie,

The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury is a book of short stories that are great. I really like the rain and he has a story called The Long Rain which I read a lot. He has a few in there that are actually really spooky though.

The Marionette’s Inc was just taken and adapted into a loosely based episode in the last season of Black Mirror (Beyond The Sea)! They’re very very different, but it’s the same concept applied differently and the book itself shows up in the episode.

finnie,

Yeah. It’s the usual nonsense habits of people that they will defend to their dying breath

finnie,

Yeah, being an American is now just being a corporate guinea pig.

finnie,

This started when we lost swappable batteries and it never stopped. Will never get over it either.

finnie,

I had heard about that! Kinda nuts that America seems to just be universally doing the wrong thing about everything. We can’t have nice things here, ever bc the worst people just want things to be worse.
