I’m not even sure why this sort of thing is news. Like, of course Iran would do whatever they could to attack their enemies. Announcing the intent is just saber rattling. It means nothing. I can only imagine that it was reported as a psyop to drum up sympathetic support for Trump and his family. What are we even doing?

    Yeah, I’ve just decided I’m not taking the bait anymore. If they want to circle jerk about trans people, I have more important things to do, like, literally anything else. Trans stuff affects me 0% of any given day and I’ve never felt the need to police a bathroom or verify the gender of an athlete.

    I cannot fucking believe our country is so mired in this absolute non-issue for 99.999% of the population.

    No, Americans are hateful people who cannot stand to even see a poor person buy soda with SNAP benefits. They will ensure that those displaced by AI end up begging in the street before receiving a penny from the government.

    Can’t save the world, but I try to give back when I can. This economy has me in a vice too. I bought the car before everything went to hell. No way I would now, but I think CarPlay would still make the short list of requirements.

    I have an EV with capacitive touch buttons for everything and a screen in the middle of the dash that basically exists solely to serve up CarPlay.

    Maybe it’s because I’m older and have already lived through crank windows, no air conditioning, no airbags, and all that stuff, but I much prefer the creature comforts. I don’t really see a compelling reason to go backward.
