Please. It's not about "willpower." Poverty plays a part. Genetics plays a part. Our unhealthy lifestyles under capitalism plays a part. But go ahead and blame people for things that might just be beyond their control. That always makes a difference. /s

Only when forced to by the phone breaking, switching providers, or, as in the case of my last phone, when they shut down a network (2G).

I got a Pantum laser printer and it's free of all the rent-a-printer crap that the big ones are pulling now. It was easy to set up with my Linux system too.

They already do all this with social safety net programs like Social Security and HUD/Section 8. Go to jail, lose your benefits. Every year is a ton of hoop jumping and massive stress while I recertify for my housing voucher and the measly $2 in food stamps they give my family per month. And that's without me even going to protests anymore.

Playing hypothetical games like this are poisonous to a relationship. My advice is to not do that kind of thing anymore.

Until and unless they break up these predatory property management companies, anything they do push through won't be anywhere near enough.

I left reddit when the mod kerfuffle started but I had a bad experience with r/Anarchism long before that and hadn't been a member for quite a while.

I went to a Mastodon server where other anarchists are.

Yeah, like 20 years ago. He's gotten so horrible over the decades.

I did once because the driver completely ignored my delivery instructions and I called to cancel the tip. They refunded it immediately.

Our building has a problem with theft, which I noted in my instructions, and they left the order in the lobby despite my clear warning to the contrary.
