I mean sure, Vault-Tec "saved" humanity but only because capitalism created a set of crises so bad that humanity needed "saving"

Also, Vault-Tec was trying to conduct experiments on the vault dwellers and was pretty closely linked the the Enclave, who were literal fascists and wanted to kill anyone they deemed "unpure," so I'm not sure that "save" is the right word to use in the first place

looks like the US is gonna get 4 more years of Trump then. Too bad, but I doubt any of the candidates would really be able to change that much.

I hope you don't catch it! I'm glad you're lucky enough to be able to work from home though, that should help you avoid it.

So many of my friends are libs. I said that I don't like veterans and they told me that I should dislike the system not the people exploited by it. That's a valid criticism for most systems, but in the military they chose to go to other parts of the world and kill people. There are other options.

I do too. all the posts against him seem to be from one person, probably some brocialist or someone Ziq had to ban.

30, I'm in a classroom right now

Got a Valentine from the person I like, and gave them a valentine too. Valentine's day is a really cute holiday but I really wish that it weren't so corporate. It just feels forced and you can't really not do it.

Probably spend more time building a world for a game of Dungeons and Dragons I plan on running someday. Other than that, spend a lot more time studying and not worry about time as much.

I'm pretty good right now. Tired, but what else is new

I once got to the front page of Reddit for about 2 hours by making a meme about World War 2 and posting it to r/History Memes

Good morning!

Brexit doesn't happen, Scotland has another referendum that succeeds this time, Northern Ireland begins to seriously consider reunification

there's a huge anti-pet movement by climate change liberals who also think that capitalism is sustainable

Good luck! I have a bunch too, but I had some last week so my load isn't too bad.

thanks, that's good advice.

Thanks. a metric fuckload of people are going to the budget meeting tonight to get them to stop so hopefully that works, but I doubt it will. Personally, I like the concept of a student strike that has been thrown around, but I don't think enough people would do it for it to be effective.

I don't think it is illegal. the worst that happens is they turn you away, I highly doubt it would be worth the effort to charge someone for this. I would just be careful with how much you do it, the rare worker that actually thinks a company is good for them might recognize you if you do stuff like birthday rewards too much, if it's a physical store, but other than that I think you'd be fine

I personally really liked Stranger In a Strange Land, The Great Gatsby, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, and, of course, My Disillusionment In Russia

:-) is better in my opinion. emojis just feel kinda corporate and bad, if you know what I mean

oh it is. Most of the people I know are rejecting anarchism (for now) but many are embracing left wing ideas, some even saying that electoral politics don't get things done. I only hope it continues to trend in this direction

I'm Gen Z and like everyone I know is stressed out by politics. I think it's because our generation is the first where not just in certain countries or areas, but the whole world could be irreparably destroyed by people and politicians being stupid, and we realize that and are freaking the fuck out because most of us can't vote and are watching the world get destroyed before us with very little we can do except for protests that are ignored by those in power.
