Living in Texas had taught me that, if Texas wants it, it is therefore bad.

The fediverse has so little content that it makes it hard to imagine anyone paying for something that gives you less content and participation than any unregistered lurker gets from something like reddit for free

that content keeps me coming back as an unregistered lurker and for much longer than all of the fediverse instances combined.

only poor people have to deal with rats and roaches; which is why they’re still around.

nearly half of computer-related engineers/developers/technicians/analyst who refuse to believe that this and other similar programs that snowden revealed on purely ideological grounds is a huge source of fuel for my misanthropy; the fact that they tend to be the most successful and/or well paid in my field (software development) is a several fold bigger source.

we’re so fucked

i used to inhabit forums and bbs that did something similar to reddit and i learned that the downfall will be so slow that no one will be able to recognize it. one of them was still around and i took a look when i left reddit and saw that the die hards remained and now post over 75% of the content.

it’s a bit like climate change; it’s unquestionably happening but most either won’t admit it or just ignore it.
