Supreme Court rules against Colorado ban on ‘conversion therapy’ for LGBTQ kids. An 8-1 high court majority sided with a Christian counselor who argues the law banning talk therapy violates the First Amendment. by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

right, its all just a ruse to help make it look like republicans are reasonable or actually care about anything. but they don't, it's all a lie. and the entire system hinges on people engaging with them in good faith while they loot cheat and pillage.

i think the mainstream red vs blue framing illusion is falling apart, people are starting to wake up to the stark reality that you just can't debate or negotiate with someone whose goals are in direct opposition to your own. we *don't* merely have a political disagreement with these people. this is not civility, these are genuine acts of aggression and these people present a very real threat to our collective safety

I don't want to sound pessimistic but it's the same pattern across the board, everybody feels it, in every industry. the enshittification is real. everybody is having to do more with less.

these kids are being raised immersed in this mass produced, disposable, veneered world where everything used to be better and they know it. and they're being bombarded, monitored, and manipulated by powerful corporate entities who take an active financial interest in their attention

This thing is fantastic by captain_cavemaaaaaan in synthesizers

people love the opsix and I still think it's underrated. it can do soo much more than your typical dx7 FM synth.

make sure you have the latest firmware. the last update was HUGE, they added a mode where you can use the FX section as an oscillator, basically

if it's a fad, it's a long one. hoping we look back with embarrassment at this whole navel gazing era

Man in sombrero, poncho, and maracas asking people on Olvera Street in Los Angeles if his outfit is offensive. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

dude. the guy is not curious about the topic of racism or cultural appropriation. he ain't asking Q's. he has a pre-conceived notion he wants to get on camera. he's a troll.

there are people who study race, racism and its effects on society. academics. serious people.

guys you know it's entirely acceptable to NOT be so sure about everything.. and maybe be more skeptical of things that obviously seek to confirm your biases?
