What behaviors of Larry Ellison is it going to help change? Hoarding wealth to the detriment of society? Attacking the tech sector with their army of lawyers? AI monitoring billionaires sounds strange, but I'm willing to see how it goes.

After a school shooting in Iowa last January:

"So surprising to see it here. But, we have to get over it. We have to move forward." -Trump

So he should take his own advice and get over it.

Perhaps they both would find some agreement with Diogenes. If poverty is virtuous why not practice it?

Not a big surprise the vice Putin fluffer is on the side of Russia not leaving Ukraine under a peace treaty and Ukraine promising not to protect itself. All after Russia violated treaties like the Budapest memorandum uncountable times attacking Ukraine. Meanwhile Putin fluffer Sr won't publicly state a position because he's obviously on Russia's side, they bankrolled his businesses when NYC banks told him to fuck off.

I'm sure this dui moron can clearly and succinctly explain to a judge why laws don't apply to them.

Cancel subscriptions when you sign up, fuck auto renewals and save some money if there's a gap before the next time you need or use the service, and gives you a chance to consider if it's worth the money or ethical concerns when manually renewing subs.

With layoffs happening in an election year I am a going to be a bit suspicious that executives are colluding to try to lower employment rates to influence voters to vote Republican so their millionaire executives and billion dollar corps can get lower taxes and less regulation. We'll see if they start rehiring again for 2025 after the election is over.

"In these times of darkness and hopelessness, we wish to share a strong message of solidarity and recognition to those Palestinian journalists who are covering this crisis in such dramatic circumstances. As humanity, we have a huge debt to their courage and commitment to freedom of expression," said Mauricio Weibel, Chair of the International Jury of Media Professionals.

Just trying to live with as little advertising as possible and curious what tips or tricks the community has aside from moving out to a cabin in the woods.

I can't really get away from road side advertising for now. Public sporting events are completely infected, and for the ads I am forced to see I try to make a conscious effort not to buy their goods or services. I won't subscribe to a streaming service if they have a sub+ad tier, if they're separate free with ads or sub no ads I'll support it.

Not really for any moral stance, but ad blockers are good at avoiding malware and some services are basically broken if you have to wait for an ad network, and I just feel mentally healthier in general without the extra propaganda.
