You don’t know what a joke is. Lmfao

KDE is objectively the better DE from a technical standpoint (in my objective opinion) but sometimes GNOME just feels right in the moment. I have both installed and switch between them all the time

You’re delusional in the other direction. Take the normalpill, bro. Reality is more or less neutral to you almost all the time.

dude, 15 minutes? I watched my friend take a dab for the first time and he was unresponsive for two fucking hours. He was standing upright staring at the horizon without moving an inch. He only spoke once, about an hour in, and he said “time is nothing”

no one – not one man – is calling them out. They’re patting each other on the back.

being surprised by this makes no sense, it’s like expecting people at a Hitler convention to call each other out for liking Hitler

edit: if you expect anything but the worst from users of reddit, discord, and 4chan, you’re insane.

Exhibit A, Your Honor.

I could not imagine a more stereotypical reply if you paid me

Lol. U mad bro? If you can’t take the heat…

I feel like you’re intentionally misunderstanding me at this point, or you only skimmed what I read. Nobody said do nothing. I said post memes when it’s time to post memes and post politics when it’s time to post politics. Either way I’m not interested in continuing this conversation if it’s going to involve Reddit-level obstinance.

I would like you to read my reply to the other reply, please.

It’s just kind of… Completely irrelevant to the post? And absolutely nothing I’m not already painfully aware of, not even a single sentence I haven’t already read 100 times in slightly different wording?

I understand that nearly everyone is in a panicked state and that this stuff is at the top of their mind at all times here, but that mental state is representative of someone who is, more or less, already fully defeated. It is needless and actually harmful to bring politics into every context unprompted and the reason is actually plainly obvious if you take a step back.

Someone who spends all their time broiling in anxiety has no energy to put up an actual fight. Spreading ideas and calls to action is a valid form of resistance but this is the social media equivalent of hugging your knees and rocking back and forth while sobbing in a corner. People who care need to use their limited energy wisely in ways that will have appreciable impact. What this kind of posting does is reduce other people’s capacity to engage.

My parents, for example, have chosen to completely disengage from politics because they see that their peers who are tapped in have become frantic and ineffectual.

Effective communication requires you to acknowledge that it isn’t universally relevant in all contexts. It requires you to recognize that both you and your peers need to recharge sometimes.

It’s fine by me, I just can’t stand the british elitism

Holy shit dude touch grass

I love a rant as much as the next guy but this is a meme

Also, did you know aluminum is the original word for the metal? The aluminium spelling was invented by British people after the fact simply because they thought it sounded better. Now they act like we’re illiterate for leaving out the second “i”

mean girls are mean
