I absolutely fucking love this album. I stumbled across it a few years ago and it’s been a staple of mine since. Given that this band does mostly Norwegian death metal, what a departure from that, and I’m here for it.

I mean, you copied my post title and everything. Nice.

I think they’re intentionally blocking TikTok DNS records.

I do this for a number of sites so that the only way I can reach them is by intentionally turning on a VPN, bypassing my local DNS server (I self-host Pi.Hole), and visiting the blocked target.

Agreed. Just using him as an example.

Yep. He’s the boogeyman that the Right always say that George Soros is. It’s always projection with those assholes.

“Like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said…”

This guy is a fuck.

I know it’s no consolation, but not all of us down here are shit-bags. I am the son of an immigrant, I speak a few languages, have traveled around the world several times. I’ve always been keenly aware of how awful the United States are. It’s always been a point of embarrassment for me. Over the last 10 years, though, I’ve had to come to terms with leaving.

It’s hard to just give up a whole life. I have friends, a community, family, and belongings that I will have to choose to leave behind.

But I’m unhappy here.

Just know that while it’s easy to say “all Americans can fuck off,” and largely I am on board with that, those of us who want change can’t seem to find a way to make it happen. Voting failed us majorly twice. I’m not fully convinced that the tech sector didn’t help usher this asshole into power.

IUREKA, IU GOT IUT.

I responded to Cruxifux below, but it applies to this comment. For what it’s worth, I agree with your sentiment.

I’ve been talking about this a lot. We don’t have a unified banner fight under. Our liberal leadership are weak, and they undermine the leftists and progressives who want to actually fight.

Bernie Sanders is rallying people all over the country right now, getting them angry. Most people I know are livid.

We need a spark to light the powderkeg.

Personally speaking, I’ve already been making plans to leave. I have no pride in this place. I never have. My girlfriend is a citizen of Mexico and I have the ability to work from there if I want. I’m going there to scout places to live next Thursday.

Anyway, for what it’s worth, I’m rooting for the rest of the world. Trump and his goons can keep the mess they’ve made. Unless fighting breaks out in Seattle, its none of my business. To hell with this country.

(Good seeing you again, Crux. The fediverse is actually still a small place.)

No way. I never heard of Ulius Caesar.

This is on par with the posts from the “on this date” community.

Washingtonian here. I am reading this and trying to fathom how this disjointed country could manage something like this.

We’re already cracked, but the glass is roughly holding together. Something like this would shatter the cup, the shelves, and the entire house.

I hate this, I can’t stand the wedge he’s driven between us and the world, and I can’t see us walking this back.

Or a ball bearing, in the case of Cyberfuks.

Not with that attitude.

I’m rooting for you. I am working on leaving this shit hole before it’s too late.

They blasted it on the WhiteHouse.gov page. It wasn’t even an attempted disappearing. It was a brag… so, to answer your question: No.

Media organizations seem to have a problem reporting accurately. Either it’s this fluffy-assed senationalization to get clicks, or it’s a false equivocation or downplaying like with “resembling a Nazi salute” when reporting on Musk. Reporters and their publications have become so weak-willed. Journalism is dying a hard death.

That’s definitely not a Maine Coon.

Is it necessary to make the fake smile? She’d be just as cute without the photo alteration.
