My kitty is young and wants to play fight but won’t scratch or bite me. I think she’s afraid I’ll get mad? Like, girl, you can maul my shit and I will keep going

Monkey’s paw twist: Your payment is new printed money, devaluing the currency

Does this also get rid of annoying pop-ups?

Good.

No

I’m not OP but I think it means “Providers are saying consumers should accept subscription-based models without complaint”

Nope, these sheriffs do not “want it for elections”, they want it for themselves. We’re on the same side here and I’m sorry to be antagonistic but I don’t agree with you excusing their behavior as principled in any way unless you also do it for sovereign citizens, because it is exactly the same thing: “the rules only apply to me when it’s convenient.”

I asked a dealer for a dumb-car. No fucking auto 911 dialing, bluetooth enabled, GPS service horseshit, just a normal car and he shot me

Later there’s this text:

…which I don’t see. I don’t think this doc accounts for Photon.

Who controls it? Can I suggest edits to these docs?

Are you a software developer?

Why is that the requirement to vote third party?

I don’t need to have a replacement ready. It’s enough for me to say that the current system does not work.

Tanky is authoritarian communist / Lenninist

Bad people shouldn’t be in positions of power. Why aren’t we protected from this? We’re being abused and no one is stopping it. I want to send a message somehow.

I would argue they are perfectly placed, not misplaced.

My counter argument is that injury and death caused by reckless driving is not solved by the police. And worse, the prison crisis is doing great harm to our society, mostly to people of color.

I was countering what that person said, and you think it’s misplaced? I think what you mean is it’s not convenient to you. Seems to be a trend.

I’m not working signaling because I never hear anyone say this: The police should be fully abolished, the prisons should be emptied, and the judicial system should be forced to find a way to solve societal problems without them. This is because they are a for-profit, corrupt, wildly inhumane and ineffective system that has resulted in generations of Americans losing their lives behind bars for harmless crimes.

You keep bringing up reckless driving, but the majority people in jail aren’t there for vehicle offenses. They’re mostly kids who got caught with marijuana. Do you really want a wildly racist institution, which takes away people’s freedom for profit to continue to operate just because you’re inconvenienced by other people driving?

Stop being selfish. The problem affects more than just you.

I keep saying single-payer healthcare is better than what we have now and get attacked for it. “I’m fine - you’re fine - my kids are fine! Stop saying you want everything for free!” Just because we are ok doesn’t mean everyone else is, you selfish prick.

How many of those 40,000 hit and runs with 8000 deaths were prevented by police officers?

Your strategy doesn’t work.

If police and prisons made us safer, we’d be the safest country on the planet. We’re not. Police hurt people after a crime has been committed, not before. Your strategy does. not. work.

Nobody asked but I had to share this

It’s important to me that everyone understands the joke, even if that understanding robs them of the joy of it. “Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. It kills it”.

But it’s important because I suffered a lot of being left out as a kid. Others found how good it felt to be exclusive, and shoulder me out of things, or refuse to explain things, or whatever it was that made me the outcast. I could tell from their faces that they love the way it felt when they did that to me. But it hurt me a lot.

I don’t want there to be any exclusivity anymore. Nobody deserves that pain. I want everyone to understand the joke, even if that prevents them from ever laughing at it.

We as a society must have a solution which is not the police solving every fucking inconvenience. They are literally killing us in our own homes. Please do the difficult mental work of figuring out a better solution than “call the cops”. I know it’s convenient but our overreliance on it has resulted in one the greatest incarceration crisis of our lifetime. I know you’re angry but please start thinking of other ways to solve problems.
