Remember the Blogspot thing? Turns out I had one all along and didn’t know it.
Just wait till They find out you Liked a conservative thing. Then you’ll be sorry, as they drag you from your bed in the middle of the night.
I’ve actually been afraid of that.
Yeah, they’ve been trying to rehabilitate the idea of gulags for a reason.
You’re a wild man, JM.
What can I say? I like to live on the edge.
Well, I don’t, so I can’t like or subscribe.
Sooner or later, you’re going to have to take a stand.
Great choice for your ‘coming-out party’, JM!
A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.
On one of my photographer forums, this guy was complaining about all the popup ads for porn that constantly appear in the margins of his email, and someone commented “You just told everyone on this site about which websites you frequent.” Awkward
Looking at that picture, have Dave Sussman and Sebastian Gorka ever been seen in the same place at the same time?
Shout out to @davesussman
I rarely even do look ups for products or services. (I mostly use Google to look up actors and actresses, trying to figure out where I’ve seen them before.) But when I do look up something, that means I get deluged with ads for it, because they finally have a piece of data for their algorithms to grab onto.
Excellent question.
I put one in the post body. I expect he’ll wander by eventually. Probably busy interviewing someone famous.
I hate how exposed I feel just trying to use my own personal computer these days. There have been things I’d have liked to Google, but I’m afraid to. I have DuckDuck Go too, but it isn’t as comprehensive. I use Brave and even Tor sometimes, but even then, who knows who is keeping track? I’ve refrained from Liking YouTube videos since Google took over, too. Why should I have to feel this way in America.
I stand for not having an account.
“You and your Pennsylvania proprietors. Oh, you cool, considerate men. You hang to the rear on every issue so that if we should go under, you’ll still remain afloat!”
That’s a step beyond what I do. I use a debit card to acquire cash at one of a set of local cash machines. Then I pay cash for everything.
The ideal I’m striving for is that when they look for me they’ll find the most boring possible person and lose interest.
I have an ATM card, that I always use at the same place. At 4am, so no one can see me.
Too late.
Nice.
Yeah, because the ATM isn’t in the system. I’d say go to the teller, but they record that too.
Also, you jerks are establishing patterns. That just makes it easier on them too.
I’ve made clear to the bank that if they try anything, I’ll withdraw all my money and cause them to collapse.
I’ve got J. P. Morgan Chase right where I want them.
Get a bigger, meaner sounding dog than that cute little fuzzy one you have…
My grandmother died in 1978. She had a fair amount of money as my grandfather had been a railroad executive. A few years before she died, her bank transitioned from the old passbook system for savings accounts. She wasn’t having any of that. When they told her she couldn’t have a passbook anymore, she put her purse on the counter and said, “In that case I’d like to withdraw all my money. Just put it right in my pocket book. I’ll take it to a bank that still uses passbooks.” And, she did.
I had one of the first ATM cards in the country. It was for a passbook savings account, but you could opt for a passcard. It only worked in the machine on the front of their handful of branches, but it was still the coolest idea ever.
Honored Judge! Much appreciated you came out the bunker for this. Seb’s a really great guy and we actually grew up a few minutes from each other in 70’s West London. I know a few folks here may not care for him, but you cannot ignore his dedication to getting Republicans and the President re-elected.
