  • Piggybacking on this good comment. The handful of doctors and counselors I’ve met always say an addiction is defined as something that impedes other areas/responsibilities of your life. If you are consistently skipping important things like taking care of children, going to work/school, basic hygiene because you can’t stop playing roblox… then that is an addiction.


  • This is the level of upset they want you. They want us to say things like “why have another election”

    The system wasn’t perfect before. It’s an institution designed to cater to basic needs and maintain peace for hundreds of millions of people. It’s unreasonable to expect perfection with that many moving parts. The system of government should continue being modified as problems are discovered. Completely dismantling it because one guy found a way to fuck it up is not the answer. Getting that guy out and unfucking it back to at least where we were before is what’s needed right now.

    He wants you angry. He’s actively trying to insight civil war. Terms like “radical” get thrown around now to justify violence later. He wants us to think we need to dismantle the entire government. We don’t. We need to get him out and put it back together. I fully understand the government didn’t serve all people equally prior to trump and there were parts that were broken, but seriously was it as bad as what we’re going through now? Personally, I don’t think so. Democrat or Republican I’d take any past president over what we have now.



  • I have been looking for a self hosted alternative to Discord if anybody knows some good options. I don’t need it to federate with anything not sure what you’re going for there… Closest option so far looked to be TS6, but they don’t seem keen on allowing self hosting for that. Apparently there’s a license that’s only good for two months. Would love to get my friends off discord and onto something local that has chat channels and screen sharing still.




  • To me he was the guy who popped up in youtube shorts once in a while always telling some college student they were wrong about something. I thought he seemed a little… Not open to listening to a counter argument. He seemed like he had his responses prepared and would railroad over most of these kids before they finished talking. Not to mention… Kids. I never saw him debate any older folks. Maybe he’s really good at that, too and I just missed it.

    After the news I did a search, filtered out the days after his death. Found his podcast listened to a couple episodes and pretty quickly decided that I don’t hate people in the same sense he seemed inclined to. Lots of antiblack antigay talk that just did not mesh for me.
