Those last two words are never asked, nor answered.

I loved that video. Such a volume of low-energy snark that it added up to high-energy snark.

Well it's a lot less brain-smashing than Laozi or Yijing… 😱

I tried to use that Fediverse book thing and couldn't figure it out. It was badly fragmented, not very good at searches, and had a UX that I can comfortably compare to getting my eyes scooped out by a spork.

I'd love to see a good site for tracking and sharing books.

I found out I was reactively hypoglycemic. A very slight diet adjustment and:

  • my panic attacks ended
  • my migraines stopped
  • my body properly signalled hunger again
  • my overall life quality improved

The issue isn't who owns it but rather who gets money. Crunchyroll, while it is owned by Sony, is based in the USA so part of the revenue it takes in goes to it's US operations: staff, servers, marketing, customer service, etc.

For people who don't want to give anything to Americans, looking for an alternative is a sound idea.

Here's some waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more plausible alternative explanations:

  1. You didn't read either the full post nor the group it was in and smarmily listed a bunch of American options.

  2. You intended some kind of sarcastic observation but fumbled it because you are a shit writer.

Me, I'm leaning toward #2, actually. I'll give you the benefit of some doubt. But you're still a shit writer.

No. We read it. We understood it. You were wrong. And you answered in the wrong way for the wrong reason.

Shit, your backpedaling is going to result in lethal whiplash at this rate!

It was a lesson hard-earned for me too. Not through addiction but through … other avenues.

So you listed six "options" that are absolutely in direct opposition to what the OP wants and what this group is about and think you are on the moral high horse?

Wattamaroon.

sigh

The sound of jackboots marching in lockstep is something people with an ear for them could hear in the '90s already. Trump is an expression of American culture rot—a symptom—not the cause.

The cause of the USA's decline dates a lot further back than 2015. It dates back to the Southern Strategy that began when I was only beginning to get out of diapers. And the blame falls squarely on the architects of it, as well as those who sleep-walked through the subsequent decades of obvious rising fascism.
