Queer rolls off the tongue a lot better than LGBT. Though I have heard it pronounced like ‘el gibbity’ and I fully approve.

Can I have it? I’d never buy one but I use Spotify constantly in my cab. It’d be nice to have it not attached to my phone.

Hexchan ain’t really doing any better. Sure are patting themselves on the back about what great allies they are though! I know that’s what I like in an ally, not actual help with the whole rights thing, but empty posturing and condescension!

Keep it up!

I feel like those posters aren’t really socialists either. There’s a point which just claiming a worldview isn’t enough to justify the accuracy of that label while holding all the opposing positions to its values.

When I was a kid one of my cats adopted a family down the road. He’d come home most nights, but would stay sometimes and would regularly eat at both houses.

That sounds like a happy cat who gets to have a healthy relationship with being inside or outside.

Imma make it stick.

So what, you just keep them locked up and anxious forever? Is that punishment for the birds?

Like, what’s your angle?

I ain’t from hexchan. Just somebody who thinks animals should be treated decently and not just collected.

I mean, you don’t actually have to take other species prisoner at all.

I don’t know, a lot of people are pretty shit to their cats and the cats don’t seem to have much say over the situation.

If you’re like a happy cat with a nice place to live and freedom to explore or hang out at home according to your whims, that’s probably a pretty okay life for the most part. But if you’re an ‘indoor’ cat spending your entire life locked in a small space that may be cramped, dirty, or scary, that’s a pretty different thing.

The contradiction of pet ownership is kinda fucked. Like, how are you going to try to keep a cat who desperately wants to escape trapped inside and pretend it’s your buddy rather than your prisoner?

Same with people who have dogs that they just leave penned up or tied to a post all the time. How can anyone think that’s any kind of life?

Humans are monsters.

I’d like to block all users and posts from hexchan, exploding heads, and lemmygrad. I don’t care if it sends the data as long as it blocks it from my UI.

What’s that written in? Python? I need to learn Python.

I honestly wouldn’t give those people the dignity of calling them leftists. They’re too concerned about cosplaying as activists and dunking on people to actually give a shit about advancing the rights of real people or trying to protect anything good.

Honestly, it’s begun to feel more hostile and shady. Pretty sure the Russian trolls are here, but hexchan ain’t helping either. I’m waiting for a client side instance block feature. We really need it.

I don’t really engage with anything I don’t see as a thoughtful reply made in good faith. Sometimes. But I try not to.

We spent the five years training the model. Manually. With Captcha data.

Now we’re teaching it not to run traffic signals, hit motorcycles or busses, or try to drive up stairs.

I definitely noticed that it’s pretty seamlessly replaced Reddit for me at this point. It’s been a decent source of stuff to read and there’s enough of it now that I don’t feel like I’m just seeing the same thing repeatedly.

I like reading articles and discussions, so it’s nice to be able to have that without propping up some big toxic company.

As far as we know you only live once. Personally, I’m not waiting around to hope for another go before I live my life the way I want to. Everything has a cost, but to me the cost is well worth not having to deal with all that bullshit.

I’ll believe it in a couple of years if he doesn’t turn up having faked his death again.

Not if we’re in the same car.
