March 2025 will be time to rewatch season one. Again.

I’ll look into this. This is kinda my holiday gift to myself.

Any good sites to buy? I’m trying to avoid Walmart and Amazon.

I’m using Mullvad on a cheap T-Mobile phone and it never shuts down my VPN app, no matter what else is running.

The only time it goes down is if it powers down completely. Then I have to start it manually after the phone powers on.

I have a friend in the Philippines who is just about done with nursing school. She really still wants to come to the USA. We are thinking along some of the same lines - if we combine our incomes, we could save enough to retire to the Philippines or somewhere else not the USA in a short amount of time.

I was born and raised in the US but I feel no loyalty to it at all.

The S(qu)eal who killed Bin Laden is openly pro-Trump. We’d probably have a split in the military before any civilian uprising.

This was my perception as well - I live in a deeply red state and what local coverage and ads I saw didn’t mention any of these policies.

They kept the good stuff under wraps and tried to play it safe but not spooking anyone with “communism.”

If I was an average American (obese, uneducated, easily frightened, provincial, and racist), I would not have been swayed to vote for Harris. Actually, the average American didn’t vote at all.

T**** did a better job of giving the impression that he was going to do something to help the everyday American. It’s a total lie but one that’s hard to see through - if you’re an average American.

Mille grazie

Ahhh. I might take a closer look at it then. Sounds like it could be fun.

Pardon my ignorance, please but what is friendica? I’ve not heard of it before.

For someone with zero experience (meeeeee!!!), which would you recommend?

I’m not an idiot but I have no idea where to even begin. I have a 3D printer and I will need to make small, somewhat simple parts for a couple of projects I’m working on.

Not exactly. I’m eating snacks and such that have more dietary fibre and protein, less sugar and such.

Some of the crackers I snack on look like corrugated cardboard. Definitely taste better though.

A big thing has been removing pop and sugary snacks. I make my own trail mix and snack on that a lot, too.

I would if Trump had lied to them and said he would stop Israel.

They knew exactly who and what they were voting for. They lied to themselves and those around them.

ZERO EMPATHY FOR EVERYONE WHO HELPED TRUMP WIN.

I will enjoy every moment the leopards eat faces. I don’t need or want allies who are this blinded or selfish when it matters the most.

Too little, too late.

Haha. I’m working on that too. Finally starting to lose fat.

Can’t wait until they and their families start being threatened with deportation and put on watchlists.

That’ll show the Democrats.

Anyone who voted for Trump gets zero empathy from me.

I dropped Xitter as soon as it became apparent that Elon was going to buy it and started pirating Disney (and everyone else) shortly after. Couldn’t tell you the last time I bought anything IBM but I’ll have to be more careful about it. I’m switching to a local fiber provider so I’m leaving comcast in a couple of weeks.

Usually. Mail in ballots have to be postmarked by a certain date, not physically there. Every state sets its own rules as to the cutoff date.

I went to see Venom and there was a group of people in the row in front of me - almost 10 people, all adults. They brought a toddler that screamed any time a symbiote was on screen. Which was a lot.

Afaik you should be able to. You could always try it and check your IP at a dns leak test site.

I hadn’t heard of that one - I’ll take a look.

TYVM

Duh. The only tool that they have left is personal attacks. Their policy positions have made the party even less likable or tolerable.
