Not sure where the details are. I hit find an action and it took me to a page that says 0 events in New York :|

One: Where are they going to go? They could move someplace more lawless, and then maybe get killed and lose everything.

Two: Ok, go. Leave your stuff here, though. Spreading wealth out over more people is better for everyone.

Cool. I've been off Spotify for years. Buying music from Bandcamp and similar has worked out. (Though now that I'm unemployed I'm not spending any money, but like I always say if capital wants me to spend money they have to pay me some first)

I wonder if it would change anything if instead of a quiz you just like handed people a printout of like a summary of how government works from Wikipedia. Like, maybe convert some people who think the president makes laws.

It would probably still be corrupted by conservatives, sadly.

Social media was always kind of garbage, and the modern algorithmically sorted stuff is worse.

I'd rather just text my friends

Capitalism leads to bad outcomes like this, yep.

Out of curiosity, do you live here?

I've never taken a cab across town, but I don't live in Manhattan itself. Bus, train, or just walking has always been enough. (Or biking, for the brave)

Did you independently reinvent https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Postal_Savings_System or did you know about the history?

Conservatism is just "in-groups to protect, out-groups to hurt." That's it. That's the whole thing. They're bad people.

I don't think adult content should be stigmatized and quarantined. Why is a game about cutting terrified victims open with a handsaw cool, but a game about licking a clit needs to be isolated?

I don't want to share my location nor have anyone else's shared with me.

Friends and partners can text "I'll be there in 5"

My friend shares her location with her mother. Her mother then nags her with like "Are you seeing someone new? You're spending a lot of time in north brooklyn now." Like, who needs that, or even the temptation of that?

A tech solution is not going to fix a social/mental problem like fear of cheating.

The cops always park in the bike and pedestrian lanes in prospect park, and it makes me so mad.

Personally I feel like if you park in the bike lane for any reason that's not life or death, people should be allowed to do what they want to your car. Maybe move it. Maybe key it. I don't care. It's a hazard for everyone.

 

I tried it a bit with my reaper in pve and it seemed okay, but I wasn't doing anything challenging that really put it to the test. I haven't tried the others classes yet.

 

Currently, I'm polite to friendly with all of them. No outstanding conflicts. It's sometimes literal kitchen table poly with one, and the others I only see at like parties and such.

Some years ago I had two partners that absolutely did not get along with each other, and that was rough. Recently I was able to do a dinner with 3 partners and everyone had a good time.

I try not to make a big deal about folks meeting. I try to model after meeting your friend's friends.

 

For me there's a bit of a network effect where the polycule sprawls out into the distance. Partners have partners who have partners.

But for disconnected folks, it's mostly been tinder (yuck), and a local meetup.

(Also this might be the first post? That or nothing federated yet)

 

Like I saw one that was titled "I wonder why rule" and had a picture about overpaid CEOs or something.

Why "rule"? What's the origin of this format?
