If it weren't so sad, it would be almost funny.
So many people are waking up to the fact that... Most people are functionally illiterate children with no understanding of the world they live in.
The easiest way I have to explain it:
You use your phone every day. You know how to use it, menus in and out, all the different programs and their uses. But if I were to pop open the cover and take one single piece out, you would never know, and you would never be able to use it again. Without someone else, you have absolutely no clue how to go about fixing it. You can push it's buttons all day, but when it comes down to how it functions at the basic levels, you are clueless.
So am I, by the way. I don't have any reason to know how to build or program a phone. Or computer. I can push their buttons all day though! Even hidden buttons. But if everyone else on the planet disappeared tonight, I would effectively be living in the 1500s, as that's about where my technical understanding of things ends. (scavenging for replacement electronics notwithstanding, once something electronic breaks, it's gone since I can't exactly run a semiconductor factory by myself, or the mines to get the materials)
My point is, most people only know how to "push the buttons" of the world. They have very surface-level understandingsof it. But when it comes down to it, they don't understand how the internals actually function.
Sorry if this rambled a bit, I hit the bowl as soon as I got home from work.
It is... Precious to me.
Why bother putting any sort of polish on it?

I'll never deadname a person, but I'll deadname the shit out of a bigoted transphobic crybaby billionaire's shitty website.
For OTHERS, yes. But many want the cutting edge for themselves, at no cost to themselves.
I would be going to prison or dead shortly after discovering that cops killed my dogs.
I care more about my dogs than I do about the vast majority of humans. And I care about humans way more than cops.
Reminder that George Tekei is still alive and he was put in an Internment camp.
A dramatization, by someone slightly baked:
"This is my neighbor. I keep him from getting too uppity by basically making it impossible to live here, since because of Me everything is insanely expensive or they literally can't buy it.
As anyone who works for me can tell you, it's not MY fault I'm doing this. It's because I don't like the colors of their shirt. Blame the shirt. And everyone take a look at how dumb wearing this shirt makes you look! See what happens when you wear it? You end up like him EVERY TIME! For more proof just look at all these other people who's shirts I didn't like and also attempted to kill (allegedly wink wink) and see how poorly they're doing. I'm such a good neighbor. Just ask my richer neighbor. And ignore anyone inside frantically shaking their head no. Number 1!"
For those who want to either go insane, or have limitless limited gloating capability!
Limitless, because to those who know how difficult it is, they will never doubt your skill and dedication.
Limited because to those who don't know, they don't care.
And I will have absolutely none of that madness in my life, I've gotten enough suffering for many lifetimes... I don't need to self inflict more!
Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date with Novice and only fun skulls....

I felt something die inside me when I realized "display settings" was going way too far into technical territory for most people.
All I was trying to do is tell someone why their screen shuts off "so quickly" after two minutes.
I had to send them step by step pictures with big red circles.
And this was someone I had thought to be intelligent enough to figure something out, and tech-minded enough to know what I was talking about. Turns out they just like buying whatever fancy new gadgets they see in commercials.
