    When I completely replaced my PC, I intended to use my old PC as a media box. But in reality, I’ve basically used my Chromecast for everything. One of these days I’ll probably want to watch something that isn’t on one of my streaming sites, but I’ve been surprisingly resistant to that so far.

    Chromecast is the ideal smart device so far, for me. No ads or anything. I use my phone as a remote and basically every video app supports it easily. Open app, press cast, select what I want to play. Exactly what a smart TV should have been like.


  • Not to mention that this sub is unapologetically pro LGBT while practically every authoritarian government (including particularly those that tankies support) has been anti LGBT. eg, China prohibits same sex marriage and adoption, while forcing trans people to get permission from their family to transition (spoiler alert: they ain’t progressive).

    Democratic socialism with actual equality for all (which goes hand in hand with the root issue socialism is supposed to solve) makes sense and is reasonable. But that’s not what tankies support. They’re defined by support for authoritarian states that have nothing to do with equality except pretending that they care about it.


  • Yeah, women focus more on things like having good hair, clothes and makeup. Men could wear stuff like makeup, but most don’t because it’s “not manly”. On dating sites, women also put more effort into taking flattering photos. It’s almost hilarious how many men on dating sites, despite being there to try and attract people, use the ugliest, poorly lit, badly angled, generic selfie. And another huge chunk are sunglasses and ball hat in a car seat (you know the one).

    I’m bi and women and find frankly most people attractive, but women are very disproportionately more attractive.
