After loading in and getting basics like Wifi and fingerprint lock set up

Just as a general rule I'd advise against ever using biometrics to lock anything, especially your phone. Cops can legally force you to unlock your phone with biometrics but not with passwords.

I love "you must be fun at parties" because it's completely defanged by just saying, "yup, I sure am." Because at that point "nuh-uh, you're boring and lame and nobody likes you" is just such a weak response. I've seen that shit turn the tide on the reddit voting hivemind all at once lol

I kind of like that she exists. She's part of the world's deep lore now. Imagine reading in a sci-fi story that there's a super high-tech anti-hacker measure and only 2 super-mega-hackers certified by Hackerman himself or whatever are able to get through it.

And one of them is this fucking person.

Idk I just think it's magical

I shot first. I would do it again :brace-cowboy:

Nah, I love it. Just read a comment by a person who called themselves "leftist, almost communist" while unironically posting on a site which does practically nothing but aggregate links to the daily mail. It's pure comedy

TERF neoliberal hexbear at that. They're so far right, most of the people they align themselves with don't think cis women are full people either. Their front page is usually just links to daily mail articles.

It's really fascinating to me how a group of people can be so transphobic that it literally takes over their entire worldview, just completely rots their brains. One of my favorite chud sites to just scroll through and laugh at.

He had the job of sweeping the streets, and got lost on his first day of work, which led him to tell astonished passers-by: “I’m Puyi, the last Emperor of the Qing dynasty. I’m staying with relatives and can’t find my way home”.

Out of all of it, this is my favorite part. What an incredible fucking image

It's not a qanon conspiracy theory it's just true lol

I still recommend some of Lovecraft's work, and Asimov's, and other shitty people's. But always with warnings, with the intent to discuss their flaws and the way those flaws creep into their work (or, sometimes, take over the work wholly) and the way that those works can still be valuable and cool and worth looking at despite those flaws in author and work.

The problem with Harry Potter is it doesn't really have any redeeming qualities. It is, as you say, worth nothing more than good marketing. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone mostly just because they're not very good, even with Rowling completely out of consideration.

If they were good? I don't know, it'd be a different story.
