I find the same to be true when people buy cars with illuminated insignia in the grill. Mercedes Benz, Volkswagen, for example.

You don't. It wasn't really normal before 2016 and normal left the building since.

Since 2016, its been a constant onslaught of idiots that live on the internet creeping out into the real world with their bullshit and conspiracy theories and half of America taking them seriously

Sweet

Going on Twitter to complain that your bigotry wasn't well received and then suggesting that Qatar funding is partially to blame is peak irony

Head down just trying to do my hobbies, my job and some fun stuff like a virtual Bob Ross painting session tonight.

There's really nothing I can do besides voting and having others vote.

Writing my reps just gets me form responses.

The only country I can flee to is Ukraine since I was born there and uh...

"African American culture is the antithesis to your argument. Even the most wealthy individuals sporting logos of all kinds, literally as status symbols."

Really you're describing the difference between striking it rich and generational wealth.

Indian hotties?

I've never seen an illuminated logo from manufacturers other than those I've listed. Large, sure. Though some like Kia or Hyundai I haven't seen get huge. Honda, maybe?

Depends on the source country of the video

Agree on all points.

I'm finding it to be the opposite. All content on YouTube and social media, including lemmy, seems to just be endless reposts of the same limited list of topics and memes.

Its become boring to the point where I'm just going back to specific interest forums websites for content.

An IT contractor at my government job was one of the people that tried to kidnap Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer.

That's what BBSes and some parts of the internet felt like. Then it all just became a shitty megamall.

Question...

I don't use tiktok. I have a Twitter account. Why is tiktok bad while a privately owned social media platform (twitter) that's partially financed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar not bad?

We can say the same thing about cars or any necessary manufactured good. But in every category, as with phones, cheaper models exist.

I work for the federal government and spend my time at work making open sourced software and outside of work contributing to open source. My job is centered around forwarding science for the betterment of society, not around making the company more money.

As a result, I'm happier. My salary could probably be about 25% higher in the private sector. However, my job is secure through retirement and the pension plan and work life balance is sensational. This year i will have taken a month off between vacations and use-or-lose. I also have banked over 2500 hours of sick leave that don't drop off. I also work fully remote though my office is 7 minutes away with no traffic.

I, too, rode a Honda shadow. I quickly grew tired of that upright sitting position on classic cruisers. Longer rides made my spine feel every fucking bump.

On a separate note...

Fuck all of those Harley bitches that bought into the lifestyle riding around without helmets on the weekend.
