Having an ID can help if you do get arrested. But that’s about all I carry.

Right it could either be a huge fuckin problem or life will just go on

And yet, here we are, with ICE kidnapping legal residents

It’s on my mind, the UK is on a very similar trajectory, just utilizing different mechanisms. Still, I think we’ll be safer there. And if push comes to shove, we can move somewhere else in Europe down the line.

Hopefully not tho, we’re finding some really cute homes in Scotland.

Sure would be nice if we had net neutrality back and they couldn’t pull this bullshit

The regime is using the Texan circuit to push through its bullshit, don’t cross your fingers

Dude this is everyone in MAGA country. It’s so fuckin bad. I had a client rant unprompted to me about Biden and electric cars for a half hour on Friday.

My ass is moving to the UK ASAP. Helps when your spouse is from there.

One of the few cases where that’s the correct form of “hung” regarding the execution of someone

Ditto. Ugh this sucks though. I don’t like being proven right.

That’s thee theme of this century, didn’t you get the memo?

The Consequences of the 20th

I assure you, we’re thinking the same stuff.

Nationalize his businesses that’ll teach him

Now that would be HILARIOUS

Excuse me? First off, you defended the US government. That was the point you made when prompted.

Look I don’t try to talk over anyone. You didn’t bring identity into it until just now. I genuinely try to be mindful of my privilege at all times and have for a while.

But you should know as well as anyone that the US is, especially now, a fascist dictatorship, and doesn’t need white knights (ironically) stepping up to say “oh poor America it gets such a bad rap for its long history of subjugation”.

That was the point I was making. Which, I feel, is pretty fair. But I’ll listen if you’ve got something to say.

10/10 as an actual Floridian. Those storms I lived through were made by Godzillas from the FPL reactor on Hutchinson Island.

I get that too. There’s an anonymity that’s so bizarre. I was in Manhattan and quickly realized that im just a ghost, nobody looks at you unless they’re selling something. And it’s generally OK, I could identify solo women and minorities and all sorts of people clearly feeling perfectly secure in their day to day business.

It was fascinating. Kinda overwhelming, I’ve spent my whole life in the Southeast. But interesting.

Other than the chemical clean+terrible aftershave smell everywhere, I assume it’s a fad scent post-Covid but god it made me wanna hurl sometimes it was so strong.

Yeah but hey, that finger doesn’t bleed!

Okay that’s fair. I don’t live in a city so I didn’t think about that, but when I visited NYC I was absolutely paranoid about having my phone out when walking around.

Why the fuck would I want a camera in my watch? Am I a spy? Like, that’s literally the only use I can think of, covertly photographing documents.

That’s pretty fuckin cool. I’m an electrician, I could absolutely use an extra thumb sometimes. By the time this stuff hits the market I intend to afford one lol. Robot digits and limbs! No surgery or wifi required!
