Funny—I'm the exact opposite. The extra spaces distract my eyes. To each their own! :)

fyi there's a typo — "press realease" in the top-right corner

You respect someone who... hedges their statements? And then profits from saying those things anyway?

"[Socialists are] taking over everything. It looks like they've taken over a lot of the corporations. It looks like they've taken over the military."

Left or right, I don't know how one could read statements like this and continue to believe the guy has any credibility. Literally just making things up.

You're probably right, but also: the three movies take place one right after the other, over the span of what, 2-3 weeks maybe? Kinda makes sense from a plot perspective that Wick might look a bit winded by the third movie.

Your "crime" is over-acting as you nail yourself to an imaginary cross.

Can you be specific about some of the things you believe are "wrongthink" in the eyes of "wokeism"? (Only if you feel safe doing so, of course...)

After reading your comment, I think it hasn't gone far enough.

What beautiful illustrations. I will be looking through this all day.

"Launch the Polaris; the end doesn't scare us"

This cute comment would have more bite if you'd actually managed to write in a straight logical line like the parent comment. Of course, imitation-but-worse is a reactionary staple.

yes, it is the people who have unchallenged confidence who experience imposter syndrome, not the people who have work hard and encounter powerful "experts" pretending to know what they are talking about.

and who cares if your work environment or your boss or is bad. you either worked hard enough or you didn't. if it were me, i would have simply worked hard enough to overcome such challenges

"Especially my amazing parents, who not only support and encourage me in any way they can but also give me a space to work in and put up with the electricity costs… Thank you!"

thanks. i was about to send a conservation group money but then i learned they might have the ulterior motive of making the world better

in our lifetimes. you don't think ipv6 will overtake ipv4 in the next 50-odd years? think about the year 1971 and what was thought possible then

There's something amusing to me about the idea of an industry that "used to be" sustainable. Guess it wasn't sustainable after all.

Sorry, but I'm having a hard time sympathising with you rather than the people spending time with their friends and family and enjoying life. Life is not a purgatory unless you believe there is an afterlife, which many people do not. You are free to derive joy from hard work or whatever, but do not think yourself better than those who do not share your priorities.

If you couldn't read the (short) article closely enough to determine the author's pronouns, maybe hold off on implying they are either mentally ill or a bad writer.

Sure, but for the short periods of time I could potentially have my mask off for, I'm not sure how much of a difference it would make— I am generally not wearing my mask for longer than an hour or two.

Just a note, the article you linked doesn't seem to mention how long is too long to wear a mask if you want to prevent mask mouth, etc.. Maybe I missed it.

Sometimes it's just easier to keep the mask on when walking between places. Personally, I have longish hair so it's kind of a pain to don/doff if I'm out and about. So I'll wear it in the car sometimes.

Seems like a lot of folks assume intent in people's actions, maybe because it's easier to make fun of others or push a certain narrative. No, I don't think Covid is going to get me in my car or when I'm walking outside away from people—I'd just rather keep my mask on because it's annoying to fiddle with.

Both recent administrations patted themselves on the back for the stimulus checks, which were smaller and arrived later than they should have. I don't think you have to worry about people depending on them long-term. And even if they did, so what?

And I dunno what your last sentence is supposed to be if not a vague gesture at some conspiracy theory. Yeah, another pandemic might happen in the future. Do you have actual evidence that shows the US government is purposefully facilitating that?

Greed is the desire to accumulate wealth for its own sake. I don't think it makes sense to characterize a low-income person as greedy for trying to improve their situation somewhat.
