What? 2026 feels endless. 2026 going fast implies you’ve enjoyed it. We started out the year with the Minneapolis freebie murders by the fucking gestapo, then we had the bombing of the girls school in Iran, followed by this recession and the AI nonsense imploding the consumer electronics market. Combine that with a horrific wildfire season and both of my hobbies are essentially fucked.

And nothing but bad news and toxic media cycles to sprinkle in between all the shit that has effected me directly. What an awful, endless year.

You’re misrepresenting reality. This article is good news, period. A jury decided Meta was at fault, and this is good regardless of your negative framing or how much they end up having to pay.

If it’s not you it’s someone else, and it’s still pessimism. And people still upvote it, because everything is bad, and all good news is actually bad news.

No, commenting “it won’t happen” on every single fucking post is pessimism. Sometimes good things happen.

People always upvote some form of this comment on every post that contains potential good news. Sometimes y’all need to keep your pessimism to your fucking self. It’s exhausting.
