This is such a nice app, better than reddit app from day 1.

The wealthiest 1% could disappear tomorrow and the world would keep going, probably improve drastically. But if all the rail workers disappeared we'd be fucked.

The explosion of dollar stores in the U.S. is like a boot that keeps pushing stomping on poor people to ensure they have to way out and this theory perfectly describes the situation.

The way forward is not to replace dollar stores with Targets, it's to move beyond capitalism and it's base of exploitation and move toward a base of cooperation.

Some ideas:

  • Make and grow stuff (food, weed, soaps, furniture, etc. and give it away, consume stuff your neighbors make and grow. Everything you avoid buying is power you don't give to the capitalists.
  • If you have money, help those that don't to buy quality boots (without seeking to profit, such as from a loan)
  • Fix things, value things not for being brand new, but for working and having history.
  • Buy used (tho if you have money, take care not to buy up all the nice things at thrift shops leaving the scraps for those who the thrift shops are their only choice)
  • Become reslilient at the community level - start out by making friends

I'd add hypochlorous acid. Easy and cheap to make with everyday stuff, great sanitizer, deodorizer, and household cleaner. I've been using it for about 3 years now for everything from cleaning pet bowls to cleaning my face, to mopping my floor, to cleaning counters and sinks. I call it magic water at home.

Nice! I installed Blur my shell and One Thing. One thing is perfect, I've been doing this with paper lol.

Think about using AI output as inspiration, examples, getting over writers block, etc, and less about using it to cut and paste it's output wholesale as completed work.

I'm a programmer, ChatGPT is incredibly useful to me now. I use it like a search engine that is able to pull up the perfect example I can use to get me over hurdles. Even when it's wrong it's still useful like having a human tutor, that can also be wrong.

Anybody visiting family today and need a good video to back them up.

 

Watching a video from one of my favorites, the Carpetbagger and he's at a museum in Kentucky. After constantly seeing and hearing so much bad about Kentucky, it's awesome to see there's good people there!
