Different enough that I’m fine with thoroughly wiping my ass. That’s hardly “having shit smeared all around”. I’m regularly under the shower and that’s good enough for me.

My butthole is very different from my face and I hope that is true for everyone else as well

Smack me in the forehead with a chain

I’ve been licking the walls of her anus.

I see it the other way around. Respect can be lost.

Treating people with respect is my standard setting. I may stop that if they lose my respect.

Home assistant is great and apart from voice recognition, its infinitely more powerful than any corporate home automation product. Voice is tough to do locally and on low powered hardware, but its getting there.

Can you back that claim up at all? Qwant is not owned by Huawei. They don’t even hold shares as far as I can tell.

That excellent gag is how I discovered hbomberguy some years ago

Ed Balls

You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He’s done worse. That billboard! Are you telling me that a man just happens to fall like that? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy! He defecated through a sunroof! And I saved him! And I shouldn’t have. I took him into my own firm! What was I thinking? He’ll never change. He’ll never change! Ever since he was 9, always the same! Couldn’t keep his hands out of the cash drawer! But not our Jimmy! Couldn’t be precious Jimmy! Stealing them blind! And he gets to be a lawyer!? What a sick joke! I should’ve stopped him when I had the chance! And you - you have to stop him!

Muse. They are almost too perfect live. It feels uncanny.

I saw Tool live at a festival in 2019. I had never heard of them before, I’m more of a punk rock guy. Their show absolutely blew me away. Surreal experience. I’ve listened to their albums a lot ever since.

Fairphone has headphones and earbuds with replaceable batteries. They’re pretty expensive, but show that the big players could easily provide the same level of repairability.

I use wired headphones at my desk, but I really don’t want to go back to wired for when I’m on the go.

I replaced most cloud services with my own Nextcloud instance. I like Nextcloud.

Very edgy. Care to elaborate?

Is that really a good thing for the animals though? Instead of being killed right away, they will suffer a short miserable life, then be killed.

Suffering is not a binary. It will massively increase under Trump compared to any democrat.

Harris and Biden are conservatives. No the conditions didn’t improve. But they sure as hell will deteriorate under Trump. Poor people, LGBT folk, women will all suffer greatly. And none of it has anything at all to do with the suffering in Palestine.

You’re not listening to me. In politics, there’s rarely “stopping the evil”. It’s not an all or nothing situation.

You act like there is no difference in outcome whether democrats or republicans win elections. You must either be very privileged or very ignorant.

And yet you didn’t fucking stop anything. The only way for you to improve anything was to vote for the lesser evil. Even in a more functional democracy with proportional voting, there is always only the lesser evil. The perfect choice doesn’t exist in societies as large as ours are.
