I wouldn’t call it selfish. At first glance I was sure this was about her dying, and I was relieved to find out she is still alive.

But right now I think it’s our turn to be there for her, like she was there for all of us for all these years.

60 years? That is amazing! I seriously believe Dolly Parton is the closest thing to pure good we’ve ever come across in our world. My heart breaks for her.

We need more Wozniak’s n this world.

Content is better than generative ai.

Sadly you’re probably spot on. 😞

I don’t doubt it at all, but as the passage goes, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend”. Or as I like to say: baby steps.

Good. Then the shareholders can sue and make things more difficult for everyone involved.

I hope Verizon sues Musk, Starlink, and the DOGE into oblivion. Even if they don’t have a chance of winning, they should be able to make it more difficult to do anything. Airlines should sue too due to the preventable crashes that occurred recently. In fact, I hope every company affected by DOGE’s policies sues.

They might not be able to get a fair trial, but they could potentially bog the system down in red tape.

Give ‘em Hell!

That explains a lot for my feed. I’ve been getting more fights, and a lot more republican propaganda than I had ever in the past. I usually just close the app and wait 15 minutes before trying again, which usually “resets” my feed.

72 gum-gums.

Flock Safety’s cease and desist later is just the latest in a long list of groups turning to bogus intellectual property claims to silence their critics. Frequently, these have no legal basis and are designed to frighten under-resourced activists and advocacy groups with high-powered law firm letterheads. EFF is here to stand up against these trademark bullies, and in the case of Flock Safety, flip them the bird.

Everybody say it with me: 🖕

And yet in this case, among so many other discrepancies, they want the death penalty for the shooter. Why is Mangione being treated like a terrorist for one death, but school shooters are not?

What a boring dystopian article. It’s sad, but necessary.

purchase and use a burner phone instead, and only turn it on when you’re at the site of the demonstration

This should be the de facto response. In addition, I’d suggest not using your personal phone for any protest related communications and stick with burners no matter how much you may trust the organizers.

Here you go:

I exist. I think. But that’s putting Descartes before the horse. 😊

I am excellent at following directions (be it by command, or through a guide of some kind). If I know the goal, I can usually fill in the blanks with minimal interaction needed. But, to come up with my own ideas is rather difficult for me. I believe it’s tied to the way my brain works — I cannot clearly visualize pictures in my head. It’s blurry and fuzzy, and I easily confuse myself when trying to g to convey my thoughts.

I wouldn’t give them the satisfaction of such a comparison. How about the two henchmen of Cruella DeVille… that’d seem more fitting.

He’s the puppet. Always has been. Two guesses who the “master” is… and you’ll probably get them both right.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t most (if not all) Republican administrations cause recessions or other damage to economies?

you voted for it

No.
