Came here to post the same advice. 30 minutes… Absolute max.

Seconded. Have read it 4 times now.

Wait, wait. I worry what you just heard was “bring me a lot of bacon and eggs”. What I said was “Bring me all the bacon and eggs you have”.

Likely owns a vending machine business. They’re easier to return than a handful of quarters if someone uses a 5 dollar bill to buy something for a buck and change.

Not sure what you mean about sending one of these posts…

Thanks for responding, all the same!

What client are you using?

Is that a function of Lemmy, or just federated links, I wonder.

Exactly. Sometimes I can get it to load if I try opening it it a few times… But not that often.

Huh. Are you using Connect, or something else?

No, it’s not.

This feels like culling the herd with extra steps. Like… Someone smart was like… Hey, we need to get rid of dumb people. How do we do that? Oh, I know… Make a place where the dumb people really want to go by relaxing laws that protect people from being dumb. Then, we’ll make the dummies believe they’re the smart and patriotic ones for moving there. When they all wind up in this insane distopia, let’s just… Infect them with measles and tell them it’s fine! As long as Facebook and a bunch of weirdo authority figures reinforce their dumb feelings of being smart, in the end, we won’t even need a genocidal dictator or gas chambers! The dummies will do the job for us!

I mean… it’s just a thought. That’s not really what’s happening…

… Right?

Nine NIIIINE!!

Bravo.

Thought you were joking because homeslice used the term, “Sauce”… Then I realized it’s spelled “Bernaise”.

I can almost get it, when I watch the state and federal government take 30 percent or more of the money I earned, so they can give it to clowns like Trump and a Biden to do stupid shit that I don’t agree with. And don’t give me any, “be the change you want to see!”, bullshit either. The fact of the matter is, if you’ve got the millions, you can do what you want, pay the fine, bribe the officials to look the other way, and generally be left the fuck alone. If you don’t, and you’ve never been given the tools and/or opportunity to get out from under living paycheck to paycheck to survive, it’s easy to understand the mental gymnastics necessary to believe in this shit. It’s ignorant speak for, “leave me the fuck alone”. Let me be clear that I fully understand and agree with the idea that this idiot wants to steal from a utility company… I’m just saying, if you don’t have the ability, resources, or education to find a place where you can live “off the grid”, looking for magical solutions isn’t hard to understand.

Shit, Disney trained me to believe that all I need to do is wish upon a star…

Fucking stupid cricket.

I stand corrected. “Poisoning” his search results with videos making him look stupid is probably one of the best ideas I’ve heard. Thanks for the education!

STOP TALKING ABOUT THIS FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT AND HE’LL GO AWAY!

I am saving this. You guys are effing great.

Seconded! Someone explain me, please?
