I do use AdGuard on my phone, but it worked for me. Good to know they‘ll be back ty.

Wait, did it die completely? I knew they lost the domain, but did they not change to anywhere else?

If I may give an additional suggestion? Maybe let the beard get trimmed too and get some tips on how to maintain that while you‘re at the stylist.

"Quotations from Chairman Mao", naja ich habe ein paar sozialistisch klingende (anti-kapitalistische) Aussagen getätigt, wobei meine Einstellung ist eher anarchistisch würde ich sagen. Jedenfalls hat mir das dann ein Freund geschenkt, fand es aber eher verstörend, weil ich auch ein Gegner von so einem Staat und Diktatur wäre. Ich konnte es nicht weiterlesen, weil mir bei einem Kapital am Anfang so unwohl wurde. Jetzt steht es rum.

Wait, you are trans and in Russia? That seems like reason enough to flee, I wouldn‘t wait until they become aware enough of you to strip your citizenship. Maybe Finland would be ok: https://en.seta.fi/human-rights-support/asylum-for-the-lgbt-and-activists/

Good luck, I hope you will be safe.

I use an app called StopTheMadness to achieve that, it also helps me with some annoying cookie pop ups.

I‘ve thought naming them is a bit silly with the Greek god ones we had here, but THIS version I can fully get behind!

I‘m already disappointed in people, this is barely making a dent, all that happened is the comment made me of think of a funny quote and then this other guy had to regale me with this "Netflix is priceless" crap, and now I get you heroes here advocating for the sorry ass corporation too. What a mistake of me to even be on social media at all, if it‘s just supposed to be a popular sentiment marketing circlejerk!

Stupidity is in the eye of the beholder. You can judge me as stupid in return for thinking that of these new subscribers if you want and then we‘ll both go our ways. Only one of us will pay Netflix no matter how much they enshittify their service or how much they raise their prices (since it‘s "priceless") and one won‘t. C‘est la vie.

Always and inevitably, each of us underestimates the number of stupid individuals in the world

I‘m starting to come to that conclusion too, or at least I noticed it seems like a curse for myself.

This reads like DARVO - Corporate Edition with a derogatory jab towards free time and unions both.

I work 30h now too and thus I suppose this is aimed at people like me, but tell you what: the job I applied to was actually only approved by HR/payroll for 30h max, the company doesn‘t WANT to pay more than this and they knew they wouldn‘t find anyone experienced to sell 40h of their life for such a measly salary.

So we managed to find a mutually beneficial agreement, I get to live and exist like a frugal monk, perpetually renting and never owning anything (the European dream!), and they filled a position at 70%, pocketing 30% of the salary they would have had to pay to attract a full time worker.

Now, how is it my fault I can’t spend like an American and the economy stagnates then? It‘s maybe a shared responsibility, but truly, the company is the one in charge here and if they told me I have to work full time and get that 30% more pay too, I probably would (since I kinda like my current job oddly enough and don‘t want to switch again yet).
