Genuinely, when online ID starts being rolled out, I will no longer be an inside person. I will just have to do woodworking, mechanical, or literally anything else. I refuse to partake in such stupidity.
Same here. I might end up spending a good chunk of my free time at the local park with a chess board and a music player with two sets of headphones, inviting strangers to play, listen and chat. If they take away my ability to broadcast shitposts and critique of the regime on the internet, I'll dedicate myself to individually turning my neighbors into angry leftists one long afternoon at a time.
Like, there are other, better ways to get involved, yes; but I'm talking about how I spend my free time, what I do for shits and giggles. This is normally filled with video games and internet shitposting, and so help me the last thing this government wants to do is give more people like me, more free time.
I'll pitch in. I saw this coming in 2023, sold a lot of PC hardware and pivoted to Cameras and bought some hard drives to fill up with media, and I've done tons of hiking, almost every trail on my side of my state and some that aren't. Picked up pipesmoking, made some buddies there in that community, branched away from the hustle and bustle, started a massive ebook collection and I've read anything I can find that doesn't start with "Nutrition Facts".
If anyone is worried about the internet, now ain't the time to worry, now's the time to get moving and get done what you need done before the gate closes for good.
"we lost?"
Like a piss in the wind, there wasn't even a fight.
I mean you could shitpost from the park while you wait for someone to play too
not if I have to give someone my ID to shitpost, I'm not
Dude it's the park. Play chess with each other's identity as the pot, and you sign in under the loser's ID if you win
