  • Met a homeless guy once who had had his jaw broken over some change. Even he was able to go to the hospital to get fixed up. It didn’t solve his myriad other problems but at least even he could get that taken care of.

    Any system which would have turned him away should be burned to the ground and the people who built said system should have the flesh flayed from their bones, slowly.







  • I pay $14CAD for Crunchyroll and I don’t even use it that much. I use hours and hours of Youtube content pretty much every day. I also had Nebula but need to get that sorted again now that they aren’t with Curiosity Stream.

    People will pay for a lot of stuff but ask them to pay for Youtube and they will lose their damn minds.

    That douche bag CEO isn’t gunna get his life back and so on top of the reviews we got:

    • One dead asshole, hell yea.
    • That one company rolling back their decision to charge even more for anesthesia.
    • A whole lot of people learning even more about how fucked up healthcare really is.
    • A bit of an uptick in class solidarity
    • One step in the right direction.

    Shut the hell up, is what I’m trying to say.



  • This isn’t going to be the last thing they do. The entire thing would set a precedent that they’re ok to destroy things that even might disagree with them. And because their reason is based in hating anything not far-right they’re not going to anything about the fact that any vacuum left will taken over by more and more far-right media.

    I also don’t have many nice things to say when media outlets go soft at times when they should just do their damn jobs but this isn’t the time. This is your government trying to censure any ideas that disagree with them. Here in Canada the Conservatives are equally trying to defund the CBC, and not terribly left-leaning outlet but one that isn’t terribly right-leaning either, just kinda frustratingly neutral when bad people do shitty things.

    This isn’t going to be a win. This isn’t a rare moment where values are aligning.









  • Calibri isn’t strong enough in it’s convictions to be Helvetica. It can’t even offer a fight against the hard utilitarianism of Arial. It’s rounded corners and varying thickness show up terribly on anything but the highest resolution screens, where it still isn’t good, and it makes me feel the same way that CRT monitors did when I put my hand up to them. You know the feeling, that crusty, fuzzy, buzzy feeling that you swear you could taste.

    A nasty font, it can absolutely go fuck itself.
