Back in my competitive smash bros days there were so many cliques like this, bizarre ass community. Lots of people superficially loved them but the minute you start to actually get to know them the manipulation and narcissism became immediately clear. That community fosters so much dogshit tbh

I keep in touch with 2 here and there - we don’t really talk much, but maybe a couple times a year at most. On good terms with both, but just living our own lives.

The other two I haven’t said a word to in years. One I’ve completely cut contact with, along with her entire circle I used to be friends with, once I snapped out of it and realized I’d just been taken advantage of and the whole group was toxic. Shitshow and a half, and also a big part of why I stepped away from a specific game’s community that we met through.

The last one I don’t like to dwell on too much, because in this case I know I was the abusive asshole - I’ve grown and changed since then, and there’s no point opening old wounds by reaching out. I hope they’re doing well these days and have processed and healed from the damage I know I caused.

When I finally added a NAS to my server setup I ended up going with unraid despite the license fee and funky flash drive thing, but I have 0 complaints. Being able to just shove random drives at it of any sizes (under the parity) is huge.

Which reminds me, I’ve had a few dropout shows on my jellyfin for a while but really need to drop a sub to support. They do great stuff

The site still looks like it came right out of the late 90’s and that’s all it needs to be

I can forgive Wikipedia and Internet Archive for the spam. Both sites are incredibly valuable and completely ad-free.

Jesus Christ. Somehow not even surprising.

Wait did something actually happen? I just remember people finally realizing he’s generally just a shitty person.

It’s because he’s nothing but a massive “yes man” and the average Nazi loves his rhetoric. Miller is the one calling the shots behind the scenes. I’m sure the actual party despises him but he’s the best figurehead for their white supremacy that they’ve ever had, so they’re putting all their weight behind him.

They dropped her the very moment it became clear she’s an actual leftist and wasn’t just this little kid talking about climate change.

There’s no “two state solution” to this shit. The entire country needs to be abolished and the land given back to Palestine.

These are valid reasons that I’d consider getting one for myself. But big tech says fuck accessibility, let’s cram it full of bullshit instead. And that’s on top of the privacy concerns that they seem focused on shoving under the rug rather than making it obvious if someone’s using these.

Literally just a fucking nazi. Good riddance.

I already found a Death Grips “Beware” edit over on reddit and it’s so fucking funny

It’s legitimately insane how people look at the US’s dogshit excuse for a pandemic response and think other countries were too restrictive, when in reality even those that were actually trying like China was still weren’t restrictive enough.

Scale that back to 100x tops

We didn’t kill off enough Nazis in WWII, we didn’t kill off enough confederates in the civil war, and as a result they’re practically running the world now.

Just look at every single big subreddit lmao. The only way to use that site is to leave every single default and join smaller communities.

Par for the course for this country

I do the same but with blue lights on everything. No patterns, color-changes, or whatever - just everything on a low, static blue
