    I need an automated system like they do for companies where you have to navigate through an option tree by pressing numbers when prompted. And there is only one very elusive path to let the call through to me, all the other parts end to either endless loops or a dummy voicemail box that doesn’t actually record any messages.




  • The original usage of the word “outlaw” used to refer to a status given to a person as a punishment for failing to show up to court after being given multiple chances. It was a severe punishment. This status meant that they would no longer be subjected to law, but also that they would no longer be protected by it. Anyone could do anything they wanted to an outlaw and would not be prosecuted for it.

    Trump just made himself an outlaw. If he is no longer being held accountable by law, he shouldn’t be protected by it either.








  • No keys, full of unnecessary electronic gadgets, heavier, bigger, clumsier handling, no manual transmission option, filled to the brim with spyware, subscription based features that used to just be pay once to have it, uses huge wheels and tires that are more expensive to replace, touchscreen controls for everything, full of obnoxious and intrusive driver aids…

    • He is waging war against his own country
    • He threatens to invade Greenland
    • He threatens to invade Panama

    • He blatantly said he would encourage Russia to invade other countries and his actions have been supporting that too
    • His cuts in aid will result in thousands of people dying of starvation while food is left rotting in storage

  • America produces way more than enough to allow everyone to live comfortably and enjoy life. But the fruits of all that extra productivity is being hoarded by a tiny portion of the population while workers are being increasingly stretched and strained to extract as much value from then as possible while paying them as least as possible.

    The scarcity of wealth and the need to always work harder and longer hours to barely make it is an illusion maintained to exploit the workers.
