    Hm, sounds like the opening paragraph to a mod, we should call it “better than armadillo’s” and essentially fork Minecraft into the game we think it should be.

    Oh, what’s that? Modders did that with wolves 10 years ago… oh, I’m old.



  • As am I. Also solo. I’ve talked to a ton of small business owners, and the difference between small business owners and corporations is you have to be willing to fuck people over to become more than “the little guy”. So, I think people like us are in the “not evil” category because our goals aren’t just to simply “make money line go up.” However, because of that, we will forever be “the little guy”

    I mean, I guess if that’s where we’re going to go, it doesn’t matter what I say, the number of organizations, within the UN, outside the UN, independent, dependent. You’re just going to call bullshit because who said it isn’t happening? China? Odd, I wonder what they’d have to gain by saying they aren’t committing human atrocities.

    There are no organizations, to my knowledge, that are dying on the hill that there’s absolutely nothing happening with the Uyghurs.

    There are a lot of reports that say shits going down. Yes, I’m sure a lot of it is editorialized. Just like anything about America in those countries. I’m not naive enough to believe anyone at face value but I’m not going to write off everything as propaganda either. Even China says the camps exist basically specifically for them, for “reeducation”. Which, sure, maybe the people need, but, to believe that at face value is a level of bliss I would love to reach.

    And before anyone goes “well the US…” I CONDEMN THAT SHIT TOO. Stop fucking murdering people. There isn’t some magical government that’s better than anyone else. They all fucking suck.

    But to pretend it isn’t happening, that’s a tragedy. I hope if someone has to give you compassion on that level, you get it. Cause it’s the least we can do to each other.

    Ah, yes, as we see Here the famously outspoken Chinese population welcoming the lockdown with open arms.

    In a country where civil gatherings are largely unheard of outside of the respective country, these just super vocal minority thinkers, got 1000’s of people to risk their way of life just for the fun of it. Just cause they wanted to make sure to let the government know how excited they were for their turn to go to prison!

    Outside the tongue in cheek, my friend, you cannot tell me this is what the majority wanted. You like/live in china, you should know what it costs those people to even make headlines anywhere. And how many there were.

    You’re putting a lot of words in my mouth my guy. You said the Chinese government is run by the majority workers. I’m giving an example of how the majority wanted something, and the minority said otherwise. Not only said otherwise, but imprisoned anyone that dissented. Like all government, the few control the many.

    The “zero covid” policy in china was absolutely insane.

    AND, guess what, I was able to argue my point without calling names. Lmao.

    Woah. I’ve never heard of this website. Do you use it regularly? I’m blown away by the fact I just clicked a link to a recipe that doesn’t have a 2.5 page write up of the authors family, why they make the dessert, and when. Along with 4 pop up ads, a banner ad, and the inability to use an Adblock.

    10/10 website. Will have to go back.

    I take it all back. Clicked one other recipe. Looks like ads just don’t want to be shown with this thing either.

    Ah. This blessed commenter shared the printer version. Pro move.





  • 100%. And yeah, I figured it was something like that, I’m so terrible at conveying how I’m actually coming across over text so sorry if I was combative.

    I wasn’t trying to take away from what you were saying at all, cause like I said, I actually agree with like 95% of what you’ve said, I’m just totally disenfranchised with things on a federal level.

    Again though, like I have been saying, you’re in an increasingly small number of Americans that can actually say they have a tangible voice right now, make it count! I just wish it applied to more. Good luck and good voting, I hope you get the outcome you want.
