@noiob my new political belief is we should treat leafblowers like they do guns in japan

I think the people who are just paid to blow leaves off of this cunt's fake greek statues are paid more than I've ever been purely through the sheer amount of hours they work

if you use power tools for hours a day for extremely stupid reasons like removing leaves from your unused garden you should be forced to pay a stipend to all of your neighbours of perhaps £1000 a second

computers are much better than they ever need to be but they seem worse than ever because everyone who makes hardware and software is being coerced/bribed into making them bad on purpose for reasons that no reasonable person likes or agrees with

nothing is ever deserved, because desert is made up. Like borders & laws, it's a social tool for justifying violence or rewards for certain behaviours. Consider who you want hurt & who you want rewarded, & why. There might just be some hate you could discard, or love you haven't yet acted on.
