Microsoft is an American company. America is broken and corrupt. No country can trust America anymore.

As if the far right folks will buy an electric car and Elon burned the bridges for buyers on the left.

I don’t miss the thousands of obnoxious, foul mouthed folks on FB that I routinely blocked. Haven’t experienced any of that on the fediverse yet.

They‘re all robbers and thieves without a conscience.

They all work for the people who give them money to win elections. Republicans work much harder for the rich, that’s why they have been winning elections with accomplished felons, pedos and liars who will do their bidding at all costs.

I stopped buying on Amazon Jan 20. I will cancel Amazon Prime today. Many people will also stop buying and many people will cancel Prime. When they stop buying for a week, they tend to find alternatives that they stick with. I was buying several hundred dollars worth of merch but have found better alternatives. I will not go back. Seven days is just a start. Amazon is noticing.

Exactly! All a person has to do is to look around - the right buys up all popular media platforms and converts them to propaganda outlets.

Hey, when you’re rich you can grab them by the balls.

I really enjoy Mastodon. Writers create threads to get around character limits. I actively search out others so I don’t need algorithms to chose for me. If you want spoon-fed it’s not for you though.

That brown on his lips isn’t ketchup.

Tired of 14 YO “experts” and trolls.

Learn stuff, don’t eat processed foods and get exercise - gardening and foraging are good places to start for most people. Stay far away from negative, manipulative and lying people.

You can bet western countries already have troops and advisors helping in Ukraine.

There are people who are still in congress who had polio.

Mitch McConnel.

Major General Smedley Darlington Butler, “The Man Who Saved America.”, hands down. He single-handedly defeated a fascist overthrow of the U.S. government in 1933. AKA, the Devil Dog. He is not in history books because fascist are still in control.

You mean this dossier?

So, nothing new on the right wing scene - up is down, right is wrong - “Gray had threatened a mass shooting, posting an image of a family holding signs showing support for their trans daughter, and writing, “I need to put an end to that. … im on the edge of a lgbtq massacre.””

Seems that people have been persuaded to vote against their own self interests for too long. Maybe they should try to be informed about this issue, and vote.

Everybody is different so advice varies. For instance, some people do very well with carbs and grains. Other people’s bodies scavenge every carb and store it as fat so a high fiber, high fat diet works better for them since fat is satiating and a source of energy, Contrary to popular opinion fat does not make you fat unless it is combined with carbs, like a hamburger bun, fries and large Coke. Then again this only applies to good fats like salmon, sardines, olive oil and grass-fed meat, not the rancid vegetable oil that are pushed on us today - they actually cause allergy problems that contribute to weight gain. The 350 pound lady is starving because her system stored all the carbs she ate - your body needs about a teaspoon of sugar in its system to run and she doesn’t have enough in her system to run her body.
Good fats moderate a lot of metabolism problems for a certain groups of people. Our whole food industry is based on selling carbs. Try to buy food that aren’t carbed up - it isn’t easy. No wonder we have a weight problem in this country. Hungry? Try cutting carbs way back, increasing fiber and good fats - don’t forget potatoes, carrots and most fall crops in general tend to be high carb foods so eat salads, cabbage and leafy greens with olive oil and vinegar dressing, for instance. Carb addiction is real so give your diet change some time. Oh yeah, stay away from processed foods - they contribute to weight gain too. Again, this may not apply to you in the least, but forget the old carbs in, carbs burned shit. It simply doesn’t apply to some people.

Xhitters full. Don’t light a match or it will blow - it sucks though.

This is the utopia of capitalism.
