  So apparently some guy named Mike Johnson told the US Senate that they can't come to work for the next 3 months straight, conveniently after the midterm election is done. They were about to fire Pete from ruling over the Pentagon, but then Mike stepped up and said, "Nope! No one can work anymore!" And the response of every US senator, including the one you elected, was "OK Mr. Jones. Have a lovely day!" And then they all meekly shuffled out of the Capitol Building to enj...

  How do your users know which Public Key belongs to someone they want to communicate with? Put it in their profile. Seriously that's it. You can use a profile metadata field if you want to be formal about it. Why would you need a history of what keys were whose?

  Can't emphasize this enough, with a combination of hormones and dietary adjustments you can control your own growth rate. I don't know about transgender or anything, but any parent who isn't informing their child that they get to decide how short they will be is a bad parent, and someone needs to save that kid from them. If you have to be a certain height forever, you ought to at least have some say over what that height is, and there is no other time in your life you can do so. No t...

  At least they let you know. My mother's old vet just put up a sign saying "STAFFING ISSUES" and closed up shop. Then accused my mother of being a no-show when she called to reschedule and denying they were closed. Yeah she doesn't go there anymore...

  Yes I do not value your hard work. Yes your work is worthless. All that effort you put in deserves nothing and no reward. The only thing of any worth is how much good you did. How did you help people? How much have you improved our lives? It's regrettable if you have to work hard to do that. I'd love to make it easy to help others. But your aid is what matters, not how hard you worked. So please fucking block me if you get butthurt over people not appreciating your hard work, and not all...

  All people should be aiming for that world! All people are aiming for that world! That's what class consciousness is. All we have to do is ignore a few assholes with undeniable proof we are their debt-slaves, and everyone actually does want to make things better for themselves, and for others. The belief in debt is the only thing that's stopping us.

  That's a sort of relationship that develops between any company and a modding community, though Bethesda is one of the worst. (So how's the modding going in Minecraft? (screams of the damned)) It's very toxic, and companies shouldn't be allowed to profit from a game that other people helped create. Even if those people are idiots who worship the company for some reason.

  Problem with taxing billionaires is they get most of their wealth by extorting people, so the more we tax them, the more they tighten the screw and pass on the buck. "Oh, I'm simply forced to increase rent by that bad, bad government who's taxing me." The solution of course is repossessing their property. They can't hike rents on something they no longer own!
