The hilarious part is that we ALREADY DID this part of history. A long, long time ago, when you wanted shit from your local general store, you took your list to the clerk and said "I need this shit" and the clerk said "Oh hey, I think I have all this shit in stock. Gimme a second." And they'd collect up all the shit on your list and ask you how much of shit you wanted and then you'd pay them and walk out with all your shit. And then some fucker opened up the store so people could shop and do the legwork themselves and it cost less in clerks (because you had to use more clerks to get all the shit people wanted to buy) and people started IMPULSE buying things that weren't on their lists. And buying more shit. And the thing is. THE THING IS. The 'clerks get everything' method would have had very little, if any, shoplifting. Which means that the capitalist pigs that owned the businesses recognised that you make more money letting people get their own shit than you lose in shoplifting. Otherwise, we'd all fucking be going to Costco and handing them a list!

“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”

if you're subscribed to Microsoft word, you probably received an email recently saying they're upping their prices. Like, a lot. ($9.99/month instead of $6.99)

guess what though? you can log into your account, click Cancel Subscription, and get the option to continue your subscription at the same price WITHOUT their bullshit AI.

That's right, the new, higher price is actually a different subscription that includes AI that everyone is being opted into by force! What a cool and fun product that clearly everyone wants.

you can also choose to buy Word 2024 without AI for a single lump sum that will be yours in perpetuity, with no updates, for one computer.

Check your subscription if you need Word for work! Don't get duped into paying for something you might not even want

and if you don't need Word specifically (for work or whatever), Libreoffice is free and has never given me any problems.

I've got a chromebook (it came free with mh last phone when I desperately needed something to type on and couldn't afford a new laptop) and there are guides online to how to run Linux on it so you can download things like libreoffice btw

I was fine for awhile because I was getting office through my university but now I graduated I needed an alternative

my 6yo piano student: did you KNOW that girls can marry girls and BOYS can marry boys? But they can’t do that romantic dance together when one has a rose in their mouth, because only boys can play the guitar :(

me: 👁️👄👁️well actually, girls can definitely play guitar??

6yo: WAIT REALLY?? :O

it was honestly so fucking adorable because she was SO excited to impart with me the news that gay marriage exists, but then instantly heartbroken that wlw couples were robbed of all romance as they couldn’t possibly do the flamenco together
