I’m disgusted by it.

But I’ve also reached the point where I’ve accepted that humanity will absolutely destroy this planet and there’s not much that we can do about it.

I still try to minimize my waste, but I do so simply to make myself feel better in the short term, not because I think it’s actually going to make a difference in the end.

Probably waiting for Americans to stop stripping them of their power and handing it over to a felon rapist traitor and his treasonous party.

Is acting only according to your self-interest a good strategy in life?

Not if you plan on living in a society.

As a help desk tech, please don’t get me started.

But in the spirit of contributing to this post…focused inbox. No Microsoft, I actually wouldn’t like to see all my messages and would prefer if you could hide them from me so I miss important shit and get chewed out by my boss.

Came here for grape stomping lady. Knew I wouldn’t be disappointed.

If the internet didn’t exist we wouldn’t be in the same political situation we find ourselves. So it’s hard to say.

That being said, I’m old enough that the internet wasn’t quite a household, in-your-face thing until I was already legally an adult, and I was already leaning left by then thanks to people like Rush Limbaugh who made me realize how selfish, racist, and uneducated conservatives are and I didn’t want anything to do with that. Life’s too short to waste time being a self-serving piece of ignorant shit.

As far as religion I knew that was all bullshit well before I reached adulthood. Internet wouldn’t have affected that at all for me.

Eh.

They’re closing because they couldn’t find mods to continue running it.

In the Fediverse instances are like subreddits. Do you know how many subreddits I’ve come across that shut down because they couldn’t find mods to run them?

Lemmy will be fine.
