Yeah, the US doesn't really fit the definition TBH.

good read.
Probably time for people to move on to a new website.

Right wing media and people in the comment sections are super happy about this deal. They think Elon is on their side and will knock down the Democratic social media industrial complex or whatever. I can't even get mad about any of this for two reasons (1) Elon will eventually prove he isn't on anyone's side and disappoint them. (2) they will eventually be sad and upset because none of what they want will come true because no single man, no matter how rich, will be able to change the superstructure that arose around social media as long as the base remains money + ads.uziq wrote:

a marvellous thread.
i certainly won’t be going out for halloween next year. fuck that. even getting on the crowded subway is giving me twinges of anxiety at the moment.
Nah, Don't be like Dilbert. The meme is past expiry. It being November aside, poking fun at someone for something with connection to a horrible scene that took place nearby not even a week ago, not too far from him: hard pass. I don't feel a particular need to add any more to the points and arguments.SuperJail Warden wrote:

This could've been him, or his corpse (RIP). I did not have zeek for 2022 on the dead pool thread.Nathan Taverniti, 24, said he’s still grappling with emotional shock after one of his friends died during the tragedy Saturday at the nightlife district of Itaewon.

i've already arranged to move back to my very first district, the one i came to for my first spring in seoul. actually moving apartments has been on the cards for the last few weeks because i leased my apartment in a 6 month chunk, due for renewal on the 10th of this month. so i'm going to spend this winter back in the place where i had my very first and most exciting impressions of living in asia. the place where i have my fondest memories. i don't want to leave seoul or korea directly following a tragedy or anything.SuperJail Warden wrote:
