You didn’t “punish” them in the slightest, they’re not the ones who will suffer, you punished everyone else instead by deliberately acting to boost the republicans.

To be clear, this is not a good, or even acceptable situation, but it is the reality. Each voter had the choice to accept that reality and work within it to seek out the least bad result or vote as if their fantasy was true, and aid the republucans.

The time for trying to change the Democrat positions is every other day, not on the day of a massively consequential election.

Can’t argue with that logic. I always knew those feathered menaces were out to get us.

The same as before, that you made your choice to hand the White House to trump rather than a Democrat you didn’t agree with. It’s the same story down the ticket too. The Democrats may have run a lousy campaign, with poor candidates, but we all knew what the alternative was, and some ostensably left wing voters chose not to oppose that.

He needs this on his office door. It’d really set the tone for meetings.

All right, fine. It’s wok fried rice… No, wait, I see where this is going.

Quite right. It’s human fried rice with shrimp.

Once you realise that most people don’t read most of the information you give them, it sort of becomes a secret power. You can hide all sorts of things in a five paragraph email, let alone a full report.

I started offering cash prizes in the middle of reports, to be claimed simply by telling me you’d read that bit. Not a single taker. I stopped writing the reports after that, and no one noticed.

He was forgetting the most important step: you have to nail their feet to the floor before you light them up.

You’ve got this, just show her how attracted to her you are, tell her she’s your sun and your moon, that she’s all you think about, that the world seems dark without her.

These things are usually buried somewhere in the small print, and it might even have been in some “hey, look at this exciting new prek we git you” email from your employer when you/they joined the scheme. It might have been something like “Any items we provide to assist with member’s physical therapy remain the property of <evilcorp> at all times, and must be returned at the end of the therapy”.

Just treat the tablet as what it was provided as, a way to access their app, and be ready to return it afterwards.

The way he’s sitting reminds me of the “I don’t always … but when I do I …” meme.

Bear in mind that they already have your home address, as they sent the tablet to you, that address is geolocated, and anyone with a phobe passing near you will have enumerated any wifi networks and possibly bluetooth too and geolocated those.

They already know what devices are around you unless there’s not been a phone within range since you got them.

You were sent the tablet in order to be able to access the the app they provide. I strongly suspect that it is actually a loan, and they will want it back when you are finished with it. Given that, you shouldn’t even attempt to root it. Use it for what it is intended for, gain some benefit from that, hopefully get your massager, and return the tablet when you’re finished with it.

Unless you deliberately give them more information, there’s not much new they can gain about your environment from the tablet. What you do in the app is going to be much more valuable data to them as it’ll give them information about you and your health that they could not gain any other way.

That would explain the slightly dazed look…

The thing with the 3.5% that most people keep missing, is that it needs to be 3.5% of the population consistently engaged in protest, not just in a one off event.

Well, that’s a horrifying dystopia, well done.

“the kids won’t see it as weird. they’ll transition straight from their parents deciding their meals to corporations doing the same” is the bit that sold it for me. It’s entirely plausible, corporations would live it, and I hate it.
