In April of 2023, right-wing podcaster Steven Crowder announced that he and his wife, Hilary, were divorcing—an event, he explained to listeners of Louder with Crowder, to which he did not consent. She “didn’t want to be married anymore,” he said, “and in the state of Texas, that is completely permitted.”  

Crowder, upset, lamented: “My beliefs don’t matter.”

Fuck you. You consent to be in a marriage, not out.

Indeed, alcohol abuse is so normalized it's scary. I drink occasionally and rarely enjoy getting super drunk but it always annoys me when people base their whole personality off any sort of drug. Some people I otherwise really like would just constantly talk about drugs. It got very tiring and I eventually just stopped hanging out with them.

The iphone/non-iphone situation is utterly insane to me. I am constantly being punished for not having an iphone, be it texting or airdrop. These things should be standardized and interoperable, not owned commodities by companies. Grrr.

Shitty position to be in, where you are dependent on your competitor to foot the bill.

These stories continue to come out. And things continue to not change.

Satan bless these people. We need more of them.

They've been completely dropping the ball for years. I used to donate regularly but have completely given up on this project. It's a farce at this point.

Thankfully I only have simple needs so Krita suffices and I don't have to deal with the never-improving UX nightmare and never-releasing changes.

Yeah, I'm salty. It's just that GIMP was a shining star of FOSS and it's just been slowly rotting from inaction.

The tragedy is that the centralized, profit-driven, socially-damaging platform keeps so much value under ransom because the parent company can operate it for so long at a loss.

I get that the platform is a marvel, it's just disappointing that its purpose is tailored to keep eyes watching more ads rather than contribute to society as a whole.

Zero Punctuation made a video about it. It's worth a watch!
