My God it’s a joke

I’d say pedophilia is a tad more than just a “quirk”.

Oh boy…

Seriously. Anna archives, libby. There are so many open source projects out there for the ereader community

Don’t use kindle? They aren’t the only ebook provider

It’s a good piece of hardware. I do the same thing. Although I recently got a Kobo and I gotta say that I do prefer the kobo slightly better. Kindle is still good shit though

I’m curious to know what counts as performative reading haha

Is the new thing making fun of people who read on the train? I do it all the time ☹️

It’s going to remove all individuality and turn us into a homogeneous jelly-like society. We all think exactly the same since AI “smoothes out” the edges of extreme thinking.

If you happen to live in Massachusetts, US, Uber drivers are now making minimum $32/hr. This is of course without subtracting gas, wear and tear, psychotherapy for having to deal with passengers, etc. … but still.

News station finds that AI is unable to perform the job of a news station

🤔

I know this is just a meme post, but I find ancient symbolism fascinating. Pictographic language and imagery is so interesting to me.

Remember when Americans make fun of China because the government censors and controls what you can say online? Yeahhhh……

Yeah that pesky balance of powers thing is such a nuisance and all.

Few questions:

How far away is the pizza place? Do you live in a remote area? What time of day is it? What are the driving conditions like (snow/rain/other hazards)?

You say you can just pick it up for a quarter of that price. Then go pick it up? Is there anything preventing you? Not saying this is reasonable on DoorDash’s end, but there’s a ton of information we’re missing here. So I don’t understand how people can jump to certain conclusions this quickly.

Yes please support annas-archive!! It is a wonderful project. I can essentially get an epub file for any book (including banned books) I want. They have so much more than that too.

I thought that was Chris Pratt for a second. And wondering why we wanted a lidar enhanced photo of Chris Pratt’s face from a kilometer away.

And it squeals out too. High pitched squeal noise

Well said, and I’m sorry you had to work with them. That sounds like a horrible and soul sucking environment.

But good for you for standing up to your values and knowing when to take action (even if that action is just stopping working for them). Seriously- you should feel very proud of yourself for listening to your conscience and taking action. I have tremendous respect for that, and I think taking action like this says quite a bit about your character.

See everyone? You can do something. You don’t need to be MLK Jr. There are things you can do every single day that can help change things (no matter how small they may seem). Not saying that quitting isn’t a small feet - you are sacrificing a cushy lifestyle and potentially career aspirations, so that makes your decision even more commendable.
