Gonna have to second this. We decided that, despite everything, none of it was a dealbreaker.

It’s definitely tough to accept that 72 million Americans made that choice, and even more than that didn’t even give enough of a shit to turn up to vote.

It’s disappointing and embarrassing.

Ah, rural Colorado. So beautiful. So concerning. Lol.

Meh. Work isn’t for fulfillment. Work is just there so I can eat, pay bills, and fund my hobbies.

I consider myself quite a lefty, but really fall into the DemSoc range of things. Not far left enough for hexbear or .ml, and too far left for any other groups, really. I hate being so reluctant to post on .ml communities just to avoid a blanket ban, but it is what it is. Just kinda sucks.

So, way back in the day, when Borat was released, basically my whole household loved it. Then, Bruno was announced! Another movie from the same guy, excellent!

Wrong.

I took my mom to go see it. In theaters. I don’t think I can really put into words the awkwardness of sitting through that film.

If I never hear Lee Greenwood again it’ll still be too soon.

I feel that. Getting the official steam working, plus dealing with blackouts is a nightmare. I usually just listen to the game on the radio and check the box score every period on my phone. It’s unbelievable how much the official stream costs compared to the low quality of the app. And still being subject to blackouts at that price is insane.

Not to mention that my team is basically a factory of sadness anyways, so once regular season is over there’s not much for me to keep up with.

It’s always awkward to respond to it, too. Like, my service sucked. Don’t thank me because I was poor and needed a job and healthcare, lol. Most of the people I was in didn’t give a shit about patriotism. We just wanted to not starve to death and go to college.

Here you go!

AtlasOS is also pretty good to set up after windows is installed but before anything else is set up.

This is one of my favorites! I feel like the entire album is made of really good, and unique tracks, but since you asked about this one in particular…

I feel nostalgic for something, not quite definable, that I never experienced. A mix of cozy and wistful.

If you enjoy that song, make sure you give the whole album a go. Also wanna plug an alternate take (take 2, very rough), because it’s an interesting listen if you’re familiar with the original recording.

The final version (that made it to the album) is actually a speed-adjusted splice between take 7 and take 26.

I mean, obviously. As a single person, definitely. But issues require groups, groups require compromise, and that’s the political system. The whole thing is set up to encourage factionalism. And factions get boiled down to their simplest parts.

I feel like I just wrote in a big circle. Anyways, yeah, I agree. Lol.

Also totally valid. We need a political hypercube or something. It’s a complex thing, with a lot of gadgets and variables. Just human nature to try and simplify it I guess.

It’s been memed to death at this point, but this is one reason I like the political compass. It’s got width and height, and does a little bit of a better job at representing things.

I’m a pretty big fan of Dark and Darker! Will admit, the randoms from the Discord are… Questionable at best lol. Would definitely be happy to roll with ya whenever you’re not streaming, though! PM me your deets!

Hexbear almost made me quit Lemmy entirely until I figured out I could just block whole communities. So there’s that. Lol.

I’ll end up voting for Biden. Not psyched about it, but pragmatically the alternative is so much worse. Might get shit from the ultratankies and hexbros, but I’d rather do damage control than whine about Biden and do nothing while an actual fascist snakes his way back in.

It doesn’t feel good. And it isn’t good. But this is the reality we live in at the moment.

Alright. I been afraid to ask for fear of getting banned from other communities hosted on their instance, but what is the deal with hexbear? The chat community seems like satire, but it gives off the same kind of vibes as the_donald, just far-left instead of far right. Like, I consider myself a lefty, but their community just seems self-destructive and toxic. Maybe that’s the point, though? Honestly unsure, and afraid to ask on their instance cuz I don’t wanna get accused of “just asking questions” and banned.

Gonna throw in my vote for the tail-end of fall. When it’s almost-but-not-quite winter, and every morning is chilly and frosty. There’s something really peaceful about the quietness of it. And it tends to be right in-between major holidays, so the break from “being present” is kinda nice, too.

Also tends to coincide with pumpkin spice season. Despite all the recent negativity about it in recent years pumpkin spiced everything is an absolute favorite of mine.
