There is a disenshittified version of google out there, for now at least: udm14.com.

Every time I’ve used it, it’s for info on a home improvement project. Being that my browser blocks ads, they get nothing from my interactions.

This is the way.

I deleted a year ago and can count on one hand the number of times I’ve used reddit since.

Of course.

I just turn off my socials for a bit and it’s all good.

Yes you can, and should, ignore how crummy the world is sometimes. Outside of the good you can do with your own two hands, there’s nothing you can do to change it unless you’re a billionaire and a legislator will actually take your phone calls.

I love it.

Scramble it all. I’d do the same if I hadn’t deleted mine a year ago.

Same, except I am a legal tech and professional artist.

I love that I can make my money in a dark, air-conditioned room and just read about all the cool shit we’re learning about dinosaurs.

That dude is 100%, unadulterated, giant good boi.

Lots and lots and lots of empty places.

At least half of the retail space is basically dead.

My old shopping mall filled the half-empy food court with a climbing gym for kids and a massive video arcade, which is cool. It’s more like a flea market than a mall now because the storefronts that are occupied are all local retailers.

Oddly enough, the old cookie shop in the mall is still going strong and making the same great stuff. Apparently that place is timeless.

I canceled my sub when they announced that paid Prime memberships would still have to view ads.

I use it exceedingly rarely now, thankfully, and without a sub you have to wait a week for something to arrive anyway, so I just expect it to be shit service.

If we had a functioning government they’d already be bankrupt or in the hands of a legit oversight authority, rather than allowed to continue to run a blatantly corrupt and dangerous enterprise.

You know they’ve probably considered that.

Same.

I just wish I didn’t have to be super-careful about my friendly interactions. So many people mistake simple politeness for romantic interest these days, and no one wants to get tagged as a creep.

True, but on the plus side, it does help cull stupidity from the species, so that’s a plus.

If you’re happy being single, be happy being single.

I’ve been in love three times, and every time it ended and the cruelty of my ex-partner took years to get over. Enjoying your freedom is way better than agonizing over a relationship because at the end of the day, other people are awful.

I love this.

BDS all the fucking way.

I remember how Muslim students were terrorized and ran off campus in 2001. There was no meaningful way to report on it back then, so one article in the student newspaper was all anyone knew about it.

Please upvote this. There should be no place in academia for university staff and administrators to collaborate with jackboot thugs in order to enable violence against students.

LOL

Being ugly is really fucking hard, until you go full Tyrion and wear it like armor.

That is super cool.

There’s also the element of life experience to consider. One of my history teachers in high school was a former sergeant in the Army and fought in Vietnam, and hearing stories of historical events from the people who lived them is of immeasurable educational value.

Fuck it.

Release all four of them. I’d watch every single one and gladly pay.
