They don't know how to do Facebook very well either: it's been pretty much stagnant and enshittified to death for the past 22 years, and it feels like a forum for greying people whose greying friends haven't bothered to move on either, or to get the date of the next annual meeting of the bridge club.

one of those companies whose sole purpose seems to be annoying you by slapping their name as a watermark on a generic image you'd like to use in a meme, and force to spend 10 seconds finding somewhere else because you were never going to pay a stupid company to remove their mark on a bad picture you can find everywhere.

I wonder how those companies still exist, let alone make any money.

shitheads were whinging that Obama would be rounding up people into FEMA concentration camps whereas what he *actually* did was deport significantly more without disrupting or disobeying courts, making emergency SCOTUS applications, shooting protesting citizens dead in the streets or grifting on a historic scale.

FFS, "patriots" lost their minds when the "uppity Kenyan" wore a tan suit - like Reagan used to do - and installed a basketball court

was that Obama Derangement Syndrome? was he wrong to not insult journalists he disagreed with, to not walk out on Bill O'Reilly?
