All countries are a few steps away from this type of shit. Nation states may have been a good departure from monarchies but have very much proven to be trash; the "cultures" and "ethnicities", etc. they proclaim to protect seem very much to be bullshit money-making schemes at best. A serious shift away from vertical economic and social hierarchies is the only solution. But deprogramming the world is not going to be easy.

Top Left: Bilbo snaps while trying to get the ring from Frodo in a moment of weakness at Rivendell in Lord of the Rings.
Top Right: The ghostly bodies under water in the Dead Marshes where Gollum is leading Frodo and Bilbo in The Two Towers.
Bottom Left: Galadriel refusing the ring from Frodo while freaking out and explaining how she'd become evil if she took it in LotR.
Bottom Right: Part way through Smeagol's transformation into Gollum in The Return of the King.
If it also helps with the math of folding fitted sheets, I'm in!
Tried Sync, Liftoff, Connect and Lemmotif (I think that's all the free ones on the playstore as of August '23), and I am always preferring Jerboa.
Ayran.
I have to admit I've put it down a few times for so long that I've had to backtrack a number of times to remember what I was reading, but I do really like the style and am adamant to finish it this summer.
I haven't read The Handmaid's Tale, but am enjoying the show! I'll have to check it out at some point too.
I now have a whole folder full of "on-hold until further notice" fediverse apps. I really want to find a use for Mastodon, Pixelfed and Element. I guess I never really used X (lol), and Instagram and Discord I use for very specific things, which currently don't seem to translate for me to the fediverse. Also recently downloaded Quasseldroid because I wanna get back to using irc for some high-seas adventures (though I only briefly used that back in the ICQ days to chat with friends).
The Reprieve by Sartre. It has an intense writing style which takes some getting used to; locations, characters, character speech shifts around erratically, sometimes even mid-sentence. I am really enjoying trying to wrap my head around what's going on, who's speaking and where I am at any given moment.
Back to jerboa for me. Even though people seem to overlook it, it seems to work pretty well, and every single app I try just leads me back to it. I am also getting faster loading thumbnails and images on it than sync. Sync does feel smooth with its high refresh rate, but in my limited time with it, that seems to be the only plus it has over jerboa (edit: for the way I like using it; list or compact mode).
Awesome, thanks!

I wanted to move away from the "ent" label on reddit and start a new community to discuss dry herb and extract vaporisation. Ideally it'll be a place free from too much commercial presence and a place to compare and showcase devices and methods, somewhere new to share your clouds and thoughts on products, new developments and DIY TED goodness.

Oh god, I just had a flash of a near future where he's on the US ballot somehow. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if he found a way. He could change the name of the States to X too!
