I see green socks and pink crocs lol

But I think it's because I'm color correcting the Crocs from the green, but the socks, while I acknowledge are likely white in reality, do look very green from reflecting green light

But then, yeah, there's the difference of "do we take it at face value, or try to figure out what the 'real' colour is in neutral light?"

That's why you need more people and spread the word. If enough people and devices are dedicated to the archival probably cess, the safer it is

There are some around. I know of https://annas-archive.org/ at least

But it should be kilowatts. There's no reason not to use the standard metric for power, it's unnecessary fragmentation of figures

...I don't even own a mop lol

A lot of modern monitors have one built-in for convenience yeah

Another example, see: ads

There's a reason the advertising industry is maaaaaassive. And no, you aren't "immune to ads" or willingly make yourself "less likely to buy the product". You think you are, but you're not.

You're not immune to propaganda

When people keep telling me to basically deny my reality, it makes me feel more shit than anything else. I'd much rather someone empathize and tell me that, yes, things actually do suck. And guess what, that does make me feel better and more sane

If you don't acknowledge reality and stay realistic that things actually are not always that great, then the next time you get knocked down by something, or your challenges make something you aspired to do rail, then you're just gonna fall apart like a house of cards. Especially if you start internalizing that you should be able to do this and that it's your fault you didn't succeed etc

Treating mental health in an individualist way sucks, and sometimes is worse than nothing

Sugar free soy milk is the best imo. Oat milk is too sweet

The state determines what is legal and illegal. It's mostly irrelevant in the discussion of the evil that a state does. Apartheid was legal, so was slavery, so was the Holocaust

The administration has shown they have less than zero respect for any sort of laws or precedents set by the past, and at this point whether something is illegal just blends into the background, as you could say they do illegal things every day. Dangerous is a more fitting term to provide a sense of urgency

...how would it even make sense to be serious??

I feel like our modern life, due to cultural and economic factors, is just slowly.. then rapidly, heading towards being composed almost entirely of a simulacrum. The real being eroded away in favour of the hyperreal
