I Have No Masters

First and foremost, fuck corporations. Fuck FAANG. Fuck billionaires, including Bezos and Musk. Fuck everyone who worships billionaires and corporations, too. You’re all subhuman bootlickers, with few to no exceptions. Pundits like Charlie Kirk and Brett Cooper are also subhuman trash, because they’re trying to “reign in” on free voices like mine, to drown us out and prevent us from letting you know that you too can be free. Fuck those animals. They’re garbage.

I’ve Taken Shits Less Offensive Than Donald Trump

I’ve taken shits less offensive than Donald Trump. And, let me be clear here; not a single one of them could ever be described as “rosy”. The reality is that the right has settled on advancing an individual as “our guy”, who is a lecherous billionaire who has zero concern for the people of his country. Fuck Donald Trump. Voting for Trump is a really effective way to communicate how much of a selfish cunt you are. The irony is ever-increasing as you start to consider that his constituents vocally support “God and country”. Irony of ironies that the party of selfish cuntism is also the most spiritual. Except it isn’t ironic at all if you’re even remotely familiar with christianity. Christianity and Islam are the same type of bullshit lies while simultaneously being slightly different from one another, and yet the exact same kind of garbage. Fuck Christians, fuck muslims too, and especially fuck the GOP.

The Second Amendment

It fascinates me to see Republican lawmakers tout how “gun bans don’t work” when in the same breath they’ll support any and every attempt at Iranian nuclear de-proliferation. So let’s get something straight, here, Ted Cruz; You’ll support nuclear de-proliferation in Iran but not de-proliferation of guns at home? Hmm, I wonder- why is that, Ted? It’s probably because Ted is bankrolled heavily by American arms manufacturers. Ted knows that bans on assault weapons work. Ted is fully aware that those laws are statistically significant, but he’ll fight them tooth and nail because his corporate masters will ensure he retires on piles of millions so long as he keeps them wealthy enough to do so.

Absentia

Comcast fails me completely yet again. Go to connect to my home ssh server (as I always do) and get no response. So I check the Comcast app and see that, of course, Comcast is experiencing issues. Of course they are. Any time my shit is offline, it’s because of them, not because of me. I run commercial grade networking gear. They must be running the same bullshit they try to sell you when you sign up, because their shit is never working. Fucking assholes. Do I get any remuneration for these outages? Of course not, because I’ve been a customer for a long time. They know they’ve got my money, the greedy fucking pigs. Comcast has to be the worst internet provider I’ve ever had. The games they play with prices are worse than their customer support, too. What a shitty company. I wouldn’t even bother with these fuckers if it weren’t for the fact that they have a local monopoly where I live.

Stupidity

My cat is sitting on my chest. It’s not the easiest posture for blogging, having a cat on your chest, but I suppose I’m managing regardless.

I went to see the movie The Menu in theaters last night. Spoiler alert. If you want to see this movie without spoilers, don’t continue reading.

Kotaku Is Lying to You About Activision Blizzard

Blizzard Games Are Disappearing From China Thanks To ‘A Jerk’

Ashley Bardhan wastes our valuable time yet again with another bit of CCP propaganda, this time in the form of an appeal to every gamer in China to “not blame the communist party” for the unreasonable expectations put on tech firms by the communist party, enabled by companies such as “NetEase”, who is also involved in the debacle.

It’s ridiculous how the blame is immediately shifted onto Blizzard, despite the fact that there are serious problems with every business deal taking place in China. A number of people have pointed toward the enormous asks from NetEase as to the reason Blizzard is no longer willing to play ball with the world’s worst hermit kingdom. Fuck China, and absolutely fuck Kotaku. They’re an awful outlet for information, likely because their parent company “G/O Media” is owned by “Great Hill Partners” who also owns IGN and Ziff Davis. This private ownership is not at all transparent like a publicly traded company would be, which means it’s important to keep in mind that their positions on things is going to lean however they’re paid for it to lean. At least with publicly traded companies you can look at who has a majority stake and assume the voice of the publicly traded outfit mirrors that of the person who owns a majority of shares.

Expletives

Nine times out of ten I can’t keep a single post constrained within a single subject. Nearly every post that I’ve written is just a sprawling rant across all of ridiculous randomness. It’s pretty annoying, considering I would really like to write pieces on specific subjects that I find interesting. It just doesn’t seem possible, because I can’t fucking prevent my mind from wandering all over the goddamn place while I’m writing. I also have never had great tools when it comes to keeping my thoughts organized. The tools most people use don’t really seem to do much for me. What might be an effective tool for most ends up being at best a hassle for me. It sucks, really. I can’t get past it, and I don’t think I’ll be able to get past it any time soon. It’s really fucking annoying.

Vote Blue No Matter Who

I cannot espouse this absolute absurdity unless it’s to combat an equal or greater absurdity, and so, I repeat- Vote Blue No Matter Who. Do it. Vote blue regardless of primaries, midterms, presidential elections, runoffs. I don’t care. Vote blue until the right is no longer questioning the democracy we’ve built. Vote blue until Trumpism dies. Vote blue until the right develops some fucking sanity, because right now that party is off the fucking rails.
