So voting is better than *not* voting when it comes to getting what you want? Huh.

Most we sites nowadays seem to break and force-reload my phone’s browser. The surveillance tech embedded also somehow breaks reader view many times as well. Advertising is turning the internet unusable, it’s really shocking that I had an easier time reading websites on a Palm Treo 18 years ago.

Yesterday, Ukrainian forces targeted and struck two military facilities in occupied Donetsk region. In Debaltseve, they hit a logistics center where Russian forces stored tank equipment and ammunition. In Novoluhanske, they destroyed the expensive Russian automated jamming station R-330Zh "Zhitel."

if you ever donated a 24” iMac to my recycling shenanigans, you might like to know that these three friends outlasted the charity to which they were donated, and are here being refurbished for a second time. The Jobs-era Apple did not suck.

The colors of the 28th Virginia Infantry were captured by Pvt Marshall Sherman, 1st Minnesota Infantry, on July 2, 1863. They should never be returned.

yes, we boiled the planet, but it was worth it to make a machine that, instead of adding two plus two, takes the statistical average of every answer to questions containing "what" "is" "two" and "plus" from a database of illegal cell phone transcripts and returns a fake nude pic of a high schooler

If it helps, you can think of voting as a treatment for anxiety.

I like the UK system- tally the votes, everyone can see it was fair as you can just check, the local official announces the result, and that's that. sometimes simple is good. #UKElections (oh also credit to the Monster Raving Looney Party candidate for graciously applauding during Starmer's speech)

An aspiring dictator & convicted felon w history of treason may win the presidency. Profoundly corrupt SCOTUS justices undermined the constitution and gave him immunity from prosecution for past & future crimes. This is all political journalists should be writing about 24/7. We’re at the precipice.
