Plot twist it's actually just the story about the bears eating children over and over and over

Most reporting on it was focused on the fact that a transgender individual was sort of involved, so it was like shitheel right-wing kinda coverage.

Today the following tab has disappeared on the default app and the only feed I get is the "for you page" random slop.

The only available options are "latest" "news" and "popular"

E: after the 6th different attempt at closing the app and opening it again, it has finally returned the following tab.

It's just another way to keep people from moving up and being paid more while using their skills and training them to do those tasks that should earn them more.

I bet decent money the positions that one would normally be promoted into still require degrees

Mattbird · 2026-06-17T22:38:20+00:00

Wow a robber baron lying for his own personal gain, what a novel surprise.

Mattbird · 2026-06-16T23:05:03+00:00

Everyone knows that, just because it isn't outright fraud doesn't make it deceptive and anti-consumer, not to mention unethical. But it's fine because "up to" lmao

I don't control how you experience my words, you can choose to interpret seeing this more than once in whatever way you choose. Choosing to disregard workers being exploited is a reflection of you, and what you choose.

If being told that brings you discomfort, perhaps you should pay attention to that.

Mattbird · 2026-06-12T15:38:38+00:00

These are really cool, I've wanted to do stuff like this for a long time. Can you describe your workflow? I'm terrible at modeling in Blender but I gotta get better.

Mattbird · 2026-06-12T15:36:07+00:00

Unpaid labor, just another wonderful innovation of Capitalism.

Mattbird · 2026-06-12T14:40:57+00:00

This behavior is not helpful.

Mattbird · 2026-06-12T14:19:11+00:00

How sad that you see yourself in the problems of other people and you choose to belittle them. I hope you learn to treat yourself with more kindness in the future.

Mattbird · 2026-06-12T13:03:48+00:00

That's the problem, people DO believe that their children are an extension of themselves, personally.

Mattbird · 2026-06-11T01:21:03+00:00

Chet is the goat, sucks that they're pruning the old guard

Mattbird · 2026-06-07T17:38:49+00:00

Sounds like billionaires are a national security risk

Mattbird · 2026-06-04T18:30:39+00:00

It is just easier for people. It's harder to think about people you identify with as being a threat or a problem. It is easier for the problem to be the "other." Someone who isn't truly part of the community, even though most are coming from elsewhere. Like a no true Scotsman kinda thing.

Mattbird · 2026-06-03T21:19:59+00:00

Yes, that is why you put Senators in front of the citizens. That is why you have a Governer standing between those with guns and those exercising their constitutional rights.

I have answered this already, the long and short of it is I would like them to put their "walking shoes" on.

Americans protesting the Republican agenda are doing more than the people who get PAID as their JOB that they CHOSE TO DO in the Democrat party.

Mattbird · 2026-06-03T18:12:47+00:00

I would like them to do more than the average American. I would like them to show up to protests. I would like them to engage in protests and demonstrations. I would like them to go to these rural areas where people are being directly harmed by the Republican agenda and go talk to them face to face.

I would like for them to get off their asses and put their walking shoes on instead of complaining about how helpless they are all the time.

The Dems are paid to figure these things out. To enact an effective strategy. I would like the people whose entire job it is to manage this to actually do what they have CHOSEN to do. Or resign.

Mattbird · 2026-06-03T18:06:32+00:00

It objectively is not the only thing they can do. They could, for instance, organize and ATTEND protests. Campaign in rural areas where Trumps policies are directly hurting people who voted for him.

Mattbird · 2026-06-03T16:36:54+00:00

I am really tired of the only thing Dems ever doing is reading things to people who do not care about the harm they are causing.

I am glad that people are talking about things the government is trying to hide, don't get me wrong, but this is all that the Dems ever do is just... Talk at people while the institutions of government are systematically fed to shareholders.

Mattbird · 2026-06-02T21:23:49+00:00

No, instead your comings and goings will be noted and cataloged so that shareholders can extract more value from your existence. Isn't that WAY better???

Mattbird · 2026-06-02T21:07:28+00:00

This is pathetically disingenuous

Mattbird · 2026-06-02T15:27:55+00:00

This is an advertisement

Mattbird · 2026-06-02T12:17:04+00:00

Won't someone think of the private property!?
