His “candidacy” is to have his living expenses covered for another year while squirreling away enough cash so he doesn’t ever have to be an AM radio talk show host again.
Just some guy.

think most people can tell that majority of African and Asian countries have anti-LGBT law without needing “international attention”
Until I read this very article, I had no idea that being gay in Malaysia was punished by 20 years in prison.
Maybe he should cut more checks to right-wing grifters. That should help.
The Universe is a big place, so it almost certain.
But so far we don’t have compelling enough evidence to verify this.
Since I left Reddit, I’ve had a few searches yield very helpful Reddit results. I read them and move on. I’m running an adblocker and I’m not providing value by commenting. I see no problem with this.
So just like that a bunch of communities I’m subscribed to are gone? I guess I could make another account on beehaw but this is quickly becoming more trouble than it’s worth. I’ve broken my Reddit addiction. Maybe it’s time to leave lemmy before I get attached.
Reddit is going to be fine. It will lose a few thousand conscientious, tech-oriented users. But with a lowing herd of millions who don’t care about anything more than internet points and scrolling, they’ll hardly be missed.
Today was the first day in a decade I didn’t check the front page. So I’ll also be fine.
I’m spending a lot less time online than I did
Removing Sync from my phone was huge in terms of changing my habits. Without ready access to the dopamine drip, I am using my phone so much less than I did even a week ago. And as you said, I’m reading more and scrolling less.
I’ll admit it’s very much like getting over an addiction.
“deprived members who choose to exercise their religious beliefs by referring to the biblical texts of an opportunity to do so.”
I have chills imagining a legislator consulting the Bible when debating a law. There’s more morality in a random Spider-Man comic book.
I popped into one of the few subreddits I participate in and the consensus was mostly, “Who cares about the API/third-party apps, I just want my Reddit back.” Whatever, they can have it.
I’ve been working to curate my RSS feed in the last couple of days so I never need to visit Reddit at all (outside of being directed there by a Google search result).
I am in the process of deleting 10 years of comments (thanks, Power Delete Suite!). I’m keeping the account because I need to check in on breaking news and the site is still useful for that. Until they get rid of old.reddit—at which point I’m deleting the account permanently.
And if I’m completely honest, it kind of hurts. My primate brain really enjoyed the dopamine hits when I got complimented, upvoted, and gilded.
I’m getting used to the smaller, more community-focused scope of the Fediverse.
It’s still my launcher of choice and I’m going to ride it until the wheels fall off.
