you say you listen to queer elders? ok name five of their songs

it’s really obvious from like a few seconds which moderators actually care about the safety of the people here, and which moderators care about cultivating a certain kind of liberal space or discussion platform with no considerations made for the fundamental vulnerabilities of being human, or not Enough for them to sacrifice their perfect vision of Liberalism in favour of actual measures to protect users

if your posts are indistinguishable from that of a CIA plant trying to sow controversy and foil collective action, maybe consider making different posts

the kind of idle linkfollowing which people now see as relegated to sites like Wikipedia or TVTropes was once how the entire internet operated

most games for children are primarily luck based so i am glad there is a game for children which just has broken strategic endstates they can experience and learn from

Monopoly is a broken, bad game, but it is very effective at teaching children how to break a bad game, i·e the first beginnings of strategy

hardcore in name only, for it

what i am learning from all this smoke is that Philly does not know about N95s

help i have developed my identity around a hobby that only people who are either evil or traumatized do. now the only spaces i can go to talk about it are full of people who are either evil or traumatized. how do i fix this

whoever converted this to Liquid Glass did, i think, a very bad job of it

i regret to inform that Apple Shortcuts is still a useful technology buried within a very bad app

you are all cowards

thunderstorms are much better than fireworks the forces are showing us up

• independence day is a good film because it proposes that with global solidarity we can overthrow the locusts who are stripping our planet for resources, no matter how invincible they seem

if this sounds incredibly cursed to you then get Posix `awk´ to add a mechanism to go from a hexadecimal number to the literal ASCII character it represents that isn¦t just printing an escape code and piping it to `printf´

the issue if you were wondering is the fact that my build script replaced every letter in the filenames with five bytes of octal escape code, and i moved the repository to a new location with longer filenames and this was enough to make the result just big enough to no longer fit in the maximum argument size xargs allowed
