Tangentially related did anyone else roll their eyes at the "day of action" for net neutrality that amounted to a pop up message on like five sites? Lol keep on #resisting and let's not do anything that'd cost Silicon Valley money.

when jon drumpf oliver is the best at political action for net neutrality you know you've hosed up

In my ideal world Facebook and Google both suspend service to the U.S. for a week to protest changes to net neutrality.

Now I'm not sure if that's even possible in reality but I don't doubt they don't give a poo poo beyond a thin veneer of "siding with our users" because they'll figure out a way to keep profiting regardless.

I think the Chapo boys seemed a little too (uncharacteristically) naively optimistic in end of the last episode because I'm already seeing "WELL BOTH SIDES" going around in ostensibly liberal circles.

I never took the SAT; in my area the ACT was the test everyone took for college.

I took it hungover and got a 32/36 first try then went to a glorified community college and dropped out so lol at standardized tests being a worthwhile measure of anything.

Gorilla brain pills don't do anything. Kratom is essentially a light opiate but completely safe and non-addictive for real you can't get addicted to it it's not a drug it's a plant not a drug not addictive. Also I get sick every time I stop because it helps my immune system so much. :v:

Kava is hell on your liver btw I'd steer clear of that poo poo.

I tried them for a few episodes and there were definitely some laughs, but they are all so pretentious and insufferable that I couldn't gently caress with it for long. I need a bit of that Chapo dorky self deprecation.

Good to know not to waste my time then. I got into Chapo first and really dig them and branched off into Street Fight which is pretty good for being dumb guys but in a fun way.

I listen to cum town but I'm still not sure if I get cum town.

I have a former classmate on Facebook, who was a Bush fan and then one of the fabled Obama -> Bernie -> Trump voters.

He’s back on the Bernie train, but wishes we could just come together and respect the president who selflessly sacrificed his comfortable lifestyle for the country he loves, only to face such such undeserved hate.

And he hates AOC. A video about Bernie being cool for advocating for UHC even back in the 80s is followed by several posts from an anti-Alexandria “Occasional Cortex” group for being a dumb bitch who got owned by Trump on the Green New Deal and the divisive Russia investigation. If she wants to get rid of Trump so bad, she should find a candidate we can all unite behind and defeat him at the ballot box. Also look at this picture of her with an O mouth I bet Bill Clinton likes that COME ON NO MATTER WHICH PARTY YOU’RE FROM YOU HAVE TO AGREE THAT’S FUNNY ARRRRGH.

I can’t stop thinking about it. I feel like a character in a Lovecraft story being driven mad.
