Yeah, I remember when this originally went down seeing something about how if they used that write-off it meant that the film could never be distributed afterwards. The way things are now I wouldn’t be surprised if they sold it and kept the write-off anyways since that was a different fiscal year.

As a big Umphrees McGee fan, who had previously blocked and forgot about UniversalMonk, seeing a bunch of posts talking smack about UM really threw me for a loop when it got real bad haha.

Haha, hell yeah. Saw your reply at the same time op responded to my message and misinterpreted. Agreed.

And my point is that the example you used does not make the point you are trying to make, but rather the opposite. I get what you’re saying, it just doesn’t apply to farmers and mechanics.

No, but if a farmer’s tractor is overheating (as in the gard drive conparison), I’m sure they could diagnose it.

I’m not sure how well that analogy holds up. Farmers are usually pretty well versed in mechanical systems. To the point that now that John Deere has been screwing them over on right to repair that some farmers are even becoming versed in computer programming so they can flash the firmware on their tractors.

The music guy for Fox is a big jam band guy, plays phish/wsp a bunch as well as others. Not a big stretch that they are into KGLW.

It appears that you are looking to get all of the benefits of community, while absolving yourself of any of the responsibilities. You want to use someone else’s i stance, without having to follow any of their rules. You want to have your own little safe space to spew whatever it is that obviously goes against community guidelines, but also for that space to be able to interact freely with the community. We don’t want to interact with you on that level, that’s why we are all here, following those rules.

If you really want a place where you can say whatever shitty thing you think everyone eeds to hear, then go make your own instance.

Which will be de-federated from all of these instances.

Love it, Trump is sanctioning us for being dumb enough to re-elect him. Is there a term for the schadenfreude you get when just trying to cope? Copenfreude?

Song got me through the first year of covid. Absolutely love the Mountain Goats.

But don’t worry, 2028 will only be the hottest year since 2023! (Followed of course by the hottest year on record in 2029 again).

Not me personally, but back in high school (in the late 20th century lol) a group of kids I went to school with got inspired by Dead Presidents to rob a bunch of banks. They got caught.
