Just a dude on the internet, looking for content and fun! I love Linux, gaming, writing, reading, music, anime, walks, and occasionally movies too. Chronically ill and anxious too, that makes life quite interesting…At times.

  • At the end of the day, I consider political pressure to be resistance. If it does get rough in the USA, then our resistance will have to take the form necessary to make change happen. While Trump is not going to change internally, it’s about getting the reasonable and weaker around him to cave. As Trump is just an old white dude, there’s not much he can actually do once people are sufficiently motivated to act.

    Nonviolent protests and resistance have a track record of working and bringing about change. That is the path which I am seeking at the moment. Given we’re a big nation, the only tools that realistically work in this case is to make people comply in advance, kowtow due to the bluster and incompetence Trump is spewing. Americans have a distinct numbers advantage, he’s just hoping that we stop pushing back and simply accept the bullshit he is attempting.






  • Hmm, interesting that they beg for mercy when they’d have zero sympathy if someone like Pelosi’s husband was attacked; in fact, they were loving that shit. I’m not sorry that he died, as he was a total twat. He can Rest in Piss like the other assholes that wanted to warp America into a far crueler nation. It’s surprising that it took this long for it to happen, I wonder if this will be the inciting incident that causes a chain reaction. As talking hasn’t helped sway the mind of the key people in the Far Right who are making America a worse place…Not that I want that, because it will just be more pointless death. It will make life in America dangerously unstable…Not that it’s particularly stable, as it is.





  • That’s what I appreciate about open source software…People are free to make our own alternatives and connect with others using that software and infrastructure! We aren’t trapped by any means and can migrate to the growing alternatives. I’ve latched on to fedia.io and Mbin which is actually a stable version of Kbin (the original creator was going through it and need to take time off). I can connect with Piefed users from here, so there’s no reason to make an account there (Fediverse rocks for this reason).

    However, my reference to Dessalines was more about tarnishing the creation known as Lemmy with his mad ranting about falsehoods and other tankie nonsense. He’s just a flawed person that is still sleeping, desperate to avoid the truth and glaze countries that are the worst to their people and others in the world. Likely knows that if he pushes it further, by limiting the use of Lemmy it will come crashing down. Somewhere in the fever dream that traps him, sense still exists.



  • I’ve gotten pretty far in the game before having to put it down for a bit, it’s a great game for certain! I do enjoy the level of detail in terms of how NPCs act and respond around Arthur. Red Dead Redemption 2 is certainly a huge step-up in terms of quality from the original game.

    I’m not particularly keen for GTA6 as those games tend to be off-putting for me (mechanically and story wise), I also hate driving in games…Unfortunately, GTA tends to involve a lot of driving.





  • I am speaking from a hopeful place…Given the current political environment, if nobody sustains this energy…It will fizzle out and die, unlike the MeToo movement that kept its momentum for quite a while. There are going to be people that are sacrificed to mollify the masses, while others might skate free. Diddy is going to be sentenced from what I could find in October of this year, but he is also still imprisoned because of him being a flight risk.

    I hope that this Epstein File thing could blow up into something that a stinky, deranged man can’t silence, no matter how much smoke he blows up the arse of his cultists and society.
