Give America all your oil.

A lot of people are offput by having to choose a server before creating an account. If that could be automated somehow I think Mastodon would be more popular.

I just want a really good homescreen widget that shows a month view, and a widget that shows a task list I can check off as they’re complete. Right now I’m using Business Calendar, but I’d switch to open source in a heartbeat if any of them offered this.

We aren’t going to stop being prejudiced against each other until we meet other species to turn our prejudices outward.

Maybe you’re in the wrong communities. There are a lot fewer people here than on Reddit, so you’ll run into the same people more frequently.

I’m not sure what concessions you’re looking for. If someone is being a troll, or just boneheaded, block them for a month or two or forever.

I would pick something remarkably awful, like Valerian and the World of a Thousand Cities. And at the end of the movie would be a note that says “I have to live with this, and now you do too.”

Never pass up a chance to fuck with future self’s mind.

911, what’s your emergency?

I found a dead body on the side of the road.

Where are you? I’m sending police to you now.

Uhh, I touched it.

OK, don’t do that. Do you have hand sanitizer?

I may have eaten some.

…

Also, I tripped. I may have slipped inside.

What does that mean?

I…completed.

Listen just stay where you are, police are on their way.

Happy cheesecake day!

I hate this game so much. I played 3 times yesterday.

Plus, my (indoor) cat can’t help but have a loud, boisterous conversation with any cat that wanders through my yard. Usually at 2am while I’m trying to sleep.

They have these in Amsterdam. Each room comes with its own maid.

3 hands of blackjack.

Nope, not playing Card Wars with evil robot Jake.

They don’t know I’m watching them.

I’m always watching.

Steady, unrelenting emotional abuse.

😁👍

Does this work for SVG files?

Wow, really? Do they expect you to finance a mortgage with existing credit?

If you can be a good boy/girl, get a credit card. Start with something that returns actual value, like a grocery store card or gas card. Something you can use for ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING and then use the points or cash-back or whatever on necessities. Pay your bills with it, buy your groceries, use it everywhere you can.

Now, here’s the important part: pay the statement balance IN FULL on or before the due date. If you pay the statement balance every month, you’re basically getting a short term, 0% interest loan, and building your credit score at the same time.

Oh, and never get a credit card with any kind of annual fee or membership requirements. And when I said useful, I didn’t mean the Belle Tire card that gives you discounts on tires. WTF Belle Tire, how many tires do you think I’m going to buy?

In case you missed the part where I told you to pay off the statement every month, here it is again. Pay off the statement every month. No excuses. If you can’t pay for something in cash, don’t buy it with the card. Once you miss a payment, they start charging that ridiculous interest rate on everything you buy on the day you buy it. Once you miss a payment, you must STOP USING THE CARD until the balance is zero.

But if I find out you’re carrying a balance, I’ll find you and kick your ass myself.
