Step right up, and cast your vote into the magic bag!
You there, young man! You look like a fine citizen. I'll bet as good as brass tacks you've got some hot political opinions, and no mistake! Whadya say, throw your vote into the electoral box yonder, and 3 weeks hence you could win a prize! A very own government of your own! Now that's what I call a deal!

but it is! you must be respectful and kind to be worthy of love or respect.

The universe is not transactional. You do not need to "earn" or "be worthy" of love and respect.

Ultimatums - Freedom or Slavery... (the same game as before)... 

My edited picture reads:

I don't like ultimatums. But it's seems it's not our choice:

dangerous freedom
or
peaceful slavery (which means the list below)

passive aggressive control
commercial monopoly
manipulation and misrepresentation
being warlords elsewhere
sociopathic decisions

Does anyone have recommendations for an eink e-reader, that's easy to load epubs and pdfs into?

Bonus: also supports connecting to alternative ebook sources directly?

(Has to be e-ink, otherwise I might as well read in a browser)

This morning, when I heard was awake, I went to her room, took her in my arms and put her in our bed — next to 's crib (we do this on lazy weekend mornings only). She was happy and lovely.

Immediately after sitting there between us two, she said: “I want … I want books.”

She's only 2.5 and can't even yet, but I consider 80% of my parenting goals accomplished already.

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.

a frustration with myself and my education is that I spent years trying to answer the question of why software systems struggle with basic shit like this. now I think the answer, more than anything else, is capitalism. there is not really any incentive to build systems that interoperate with your competitor, so very little resources are dedicated to that. but interoperation is crucial to building robust usable systems, so you end up building deficient stuff because the market demands it.

Google showed me this on an image search for “fox with animated eyes,” and I must know where it is from.

There's absolutely nothing that will make you look more unhinged and insane in your day to day life than knowing the declassified official truth about like two things the CIA did and trying to talk about it
