  • I just wish we could at least have the decency to bow out without taking so many other species along with us

  • It's funny how he expects her to know who those YouTubers are lol

    I have heard of Boogie because of my interest in MTG, but I feel like that interviewer a lot when the kids start dropping names of YouTube celebrities I'm supposed to know

  • Anarchist channels on YouTube

  • I just want to say I really find your takes helpful and thoughtful, and I agree.

  • You're right. I do think it's important though to be open to admitting that many of the terms we use are reflective of a hetero/cisnormative patriarchy. I live in a region where it's very common to call someone "guy," regardless of gender. It may be used in a non-gendered way by most people here, but I'm trying to drop it from my vocabulary since it has gendered roots, and there are better terms I can use that are more inclusive. I feel the same way about "dude."

    I think everyone needs to be open to at least having a discussion, but I've seen people double down when asked to use a different term. That's not what you're doing obviously, but I've seen it.

    I think this also applies to people trying to reclaim slurs. I've had other LGBT+ people call me the f-slur repeatedly when I simply tell them I don't identify with that term.

    We all need to be more thoughtful, I think. Myself included

  • Everything the MAGAs post about Biden makes me wish he were who they think he is.

    Open borders? I wish.

    Taxing the wealthy? I wish.

    Defunding the police? I wish.

    Completely decriminalizing drugs? I wish.

    Socialized healthcare? I wish.

    Giving women access to abortion? I wish.

    Teaching Critical Race Theory in schools? I wish.

    Everything MAGAs complain about is a checklist of what would make a great president. Too bad we've never ever had a single candidate in history who's been remotely like that.

  • Every new fact I learn about Stonewall makes me respect the people who were involved even more.

  • Yeah full disclaimer: This is a screenshot of something my friend posted and not my experience. I'd imagine it would hurt, but maybe I could practice it with ... a very trusted friend lol

  • Gods help us all.

    I wish there were an add-on to hide all monetized channels from my feed.

  • I'm sure they'll also share their information with "content creators" so they can all start using the most popular colors and the site can become even more generic and samey

  • So those sources say it doesn't stay on your credit report, but I'm not really concerned about that. My credit score is consistently dogshit, and I've given up on it. I don't really care about my credit score at all.

    What I'm concerned about are legal issues, wage garnishment, and other things that would directly affect me and harm me. If I just don't pay, wouldn't they seek legal action against me? I'm almost certain they would, and I'm pretty sure that doesn't change after 7 years.

    Edit: I think I misread your comment. I see now that it does say "credit report." For some reason, I misread that and thought you were saying the debt just disappears. So really, that wouldn't help me much at all. I still need to be terrified of going to the doctor. One expensive trip could ruin my life.

  • I wish I would have known this when I thought my life was over after having appendicitis the one year of my life I couldn't afford insurance. Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep it in mind.

    I've got to say there's no way my debt would ever be less than $1k though. I'm pretty sure my deductible is $5k, but I've also given up on the whole credit score thing. I always get emails that it's dropped or whatever, and I'm just numb to it at this point it's just background noise

  • I don't have the official app, so I choose to pretend this is a shitpost.

    Haha A++ shitpost

  • With all the absurd turns YouTube and Google have taken, I've been looking at this for five minutes trying to figure out if this is a shitpost

  • What do you mean by this? They just erase your debt after 7 years? Are you sure?

  • Honestly I could be remembering wrong. This was 2020 and 2021, and I haven't been back to the clinic since December 2021 when they charged me $200 out of pocket for just an office visit. My whole point posting that comment isn't that I have celiac, but rather that I can't afford this shit.

  • it’s better from the former system in the way that walking on glass is better than being on fire

    Unless you were unemployed or extremely poor, in which case there's no difference
