It's just engagement bait and it works every time

Stuff like Wero matters and is making actual progress. Once they open up to merchants I hope to see it being a realistic homebrew payment network.

Yknow, this is literally me. I even say that shit constantly.

All good I'm just kidding haha, I'm sorry it doesn't work for you though! YouTube needs to get their shit together in many ways.

I dunno, it's been working for me, just figured I'd throw it out there, that's all. I wasn't expecting a sort of Spanish Inquisition.

You can "don't like this video" and then tell them you "don't like this channel" on any video that gets recommended.

When I wake up from "about to fall asleep" I notice that during that period of not really sleeping I usually have music playing. It's like calm cafe-like music usually and it happens practically every time I notice I'm in that state. Very pleasant!

That's sort of what I'm alluding to. It seems to me that these people are in essentially the reality version of a casino with a painted sky. It looks and feels like outside, it's just completely controlled by the people that own the casino and crafted entirely to keep the illusion up. They watch Fox, their friends might read Washington Post, their friend's friends watch whatever else. More and more media is being bought by Billionaires that have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo.

It feels like you're getting differing opinions because this guy reads this which is SLIGHTLY more moderate than that but overall it's so far more right from what things were like even 10 years ago that it doesn't really matter.

And people just don't notice.

I think that's potentially reading a lot from not much context. How do you know this is because of gas prices? Some of the people really are just completely mislead and believe that the "other side" is trying to convince them that these "untrue things" (that are true) are true.

It's like how people say that Hillary Clinton is the devil and eats babies. You don't believe that because to you, it's obviously untrue. But to some of these people, the thought of "their side" being child rapists is probably as unbelievable as the baby eating thing is to you. And the more time goes on, the more irrefutable the pedophilia and human rights abuses are to more and more people.

I'm not saying that's happening here, but I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt without enough context.

But maybe I'm just also not quite as exposed to republicans as others are and I'm talking out of my ass haha

Honestly respectable. No "this isn't what I voted for", no "I disagree with this and that but overall it was the lesser of two evils"... Just plain and simple admission of having been incorrect and owning up to it.

Let's hope they do better in the future.

Even in Edge, Outlook (a Microslop web app running on a Microslop browser) sometimes takes up to a minute to load on refresh. HOW!? God I hate that company.
