Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

He’s a sitting duck, nothing bad will happen if he just goes “Alright, I’m king for the next 3 months. Here’s some more polices things for Americans, free gun training and a copy of the Improvised Munitions book included.”

He could just… legalize pot, give Americans money, and have Trump taken care of. “but muh rule of law!!! what president would that set for the next dude who’s going to do it anyways?”

“If you don’t like America, leave!” Was what Republicans said for decades.

Now we’re expecting the poor and disabled and BIPOC to just do it because Harris failed. Unbelievable.

What if I told you that the bigots made America into the hellscape you have Stockholm syndrome for?

Because the founding fathers certainly didn’t like non-whites. Or even a lot of other white people.

What I kinda hate is the liberals who act like they want to help but are actively planning to leave the country.

If they are brown or queer, sure. It’s needed, seek asylum and live elsewhere. If they’re white cis liberals who happened to have a back up plan and just abandon the people who thought they would save them?

“I’m here to help. Oh we lost despite me browbeating you and tokenizing your life. I’m off to England and Canada, bye! Maybe I’ll give some bucks to a random gofundme.”

Word cloud?

• Social Media of them
• YouTube pages owned/operated by them
• Bandcamp
• Mail lists
• A google search every now and again

That’s how I do it. Mainly YouTube and the eMails. But some of the bands I most listen to are more indie/obscure, so they play to their fans more than people on the level of Metalica and Taylor Swift.

Stallman is often batshit insane, but when it comes to tech he knows what he’s saying.

I would trust a doctor when he says about something about my stomach, I wouldn’t trust them about astrophysics.

I would trust Stallman about how computers can be misused and mistreated, same as Cory Doctorow. I wouldn’t trust both about a small part of history, unless it was obvious or very well cited.

Nah, Trump should be shot at until someone stops missing. And then we keep going for good measure.

Thin narrow margin for Harris, several swing states are a new Florida of leaning and ballot counting taking forever. Then right wingers get upset, try to sue as they also then shoot local people for not sieg heiling Trump.

Harris enters office in Jan, makes some statements of how this is horrid, says she’ll do something to help it, but won’t solve the issues that make people consider being fascists who shoot mosques.

From there we’ll see the first 100 days of her term, and if the Senate and House are in favor, we might get some good bills in for a short term solutions to the long term diseases of American necrotic brain damage of conservatism.

For most people, nothing changes. Anti-trans bills are still in place, putting abortion back will be near impossible, and police will still shoot first ask questions second. Maybe some debts are cleared, weed is maybe legalized finally, but the county is the same as it was under Biden.

I do know you can download Ubuntu’s theming/color scheme on most Distros, including Debian. And if you like the logo, you can tell Fastfetch to show any logo/image, and branding is often a simple check on Plymouth/related configs.

Debian is what I use when I need Ubuntu-tier support.

I personally download stuff for my friend who’s been stuck in a personal care place for the last ~6 months, getting him shows and movies he’s wanted to watch but never had the time before.

I often torrent on my Raspberry Pi as I go about my day, transfer to my laptop via FTP, double check for file integrity, then transfer to a 1TB “flash drive” I made out of a M.2 drive and enclosed bay at his care facility.
