“my favorite platform” homie it’s an app to read the news. I don’t give a shit if you use it haha.
I think it’s pretty good. Other people don’t. I don’t really care either way. Give it a try if you’re curious.
Clowns to the left of me. Jokers to the right.
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

That’s a very healthy mindset to have. Too many people happily lock themselves into many bubbles/echo chambers and they lose all perspective. Just because you discuss topics with people doesn’tean you have to agree with them. It’s still important to know what other views exist out there.
I wish more people were like you.
I’ll just save you the trouble. Ground news probably isn’t for you.
Mind blowing? No lol.
But it does reveal what topics both sides either avoid covering or cover poorly.
It’s nothing that should really surprise anyone at this point but it is a good reminder that where you get your news will leave you “blind” (heh) to certain things.
A good example would be like a good guy with a gun situation. Basically any situation that was “saved” by a good guy with a gun doesn’t get much coverage on the left or if they do cover it they tend to ignore the 2A aspect of the event or downplay it’s significance.
On the flip side any news that looks bad for 2A advocates will basically not get reported on by the right at all.
What blind spot is nice for is reading articles from both sides on the same event since they both report on it differently. Reading both and taking into account the underlying biases of each source make you feel like you get a better picture of the whole situation as opposed to just one view.
TL;DR: Not mind blowing at all, but kinda interesting if used correctly.
Yeah… I have a rule that I don’t take any advice from Australians ever.
They lost a war to some overgrown chickens for fuck sake.
What if I was paid and this was actually just 4d chess guerilla marketing?
JK I wish I was getting paid to say shit like that.
Shit I would do an ad read for the Taliban if it would get me outta financial prison.
Ground news is pretty dope and the only people hating on it seem to be the people that have never used it, but thinks that it’s automatically bad because of the whole left/right thing.
It’s still a place to consume a large amount of news very quickly and at a glance you can see if one side isn’t reporting on something or if they are reporting on it using very different language or focusing on different aspects on the topic.
Nothing will ever be perfect, but as the saying goes the enemy of perfect is good.
Remember when you could download limewire pro using limewire? Those were the days.
Every other song I downloaded was actually just bill Clinton’s speech: “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.”
The fashion industry is one of the most environmentally disastrous industries that serves no real purpose.
At least with things like coal power you can understand why we are destroying the earth and killing people to keep the lights on everywhere (we shouldn’t be doing that either but that’s a different topic).
With fashion it is JUST waste. Most fashion these days is made to be worn a handful of times before it falls apart. Just needless waste with no real value.
I hate the fashion industry with a passion.
She had two wolf/husky dog hybrids and they started fighting randomly while we were talking in her driveway. She stupidly tried to break them up by sticking her arm between them. Well one of them latched on her fore arm and wouldn’t let go. She screamed and I quickly grabbed the dogs scruff with one hand and sent the ol index on a butthole excursion.
Dog yelped and let her am go before it scurried off. I can’t remember if she needed stitches or not but we wrapped her arm up and I think her wife took her to the hospital later that evening. She was fine after a couple weeks. They ended up getting rid of the dogs. She decided she wasn’t the right owner for those dogs. She was right lol.
I love pitbulls. Some of the sweetest dogs I have ever had the pleasure of interacting with were pitbulls. I have only ever been aggressively attacked and bitten by small poorly trained yipyip dogs.
I have been bitten by bigger breed by accidentally stepping on their foot or tail, but I can’t hold those dogs responsible for my mistake and their evolutionary response.
I have been around big dogs for most of my life. One thing I will tell you is that any dog will let go of any bite if you shove a finger up it’s ass. I have helped some neighbors who had wolf dogs latched onto their arm get released with the ol finger up the ass trick.
Stay safe out there.
My brain often enters “read only” mode. No new information can be entered, but it will happily tell you all about random factoid 3,076 without being directly prompted.
I ain’t enabling it lol. I just ain’t playing their game. They usually learn to communicate better after a few times of trying the silent treatment and realizing that shit dont work on me.
100%.
“I guess we are all good now so I’m gonna go back to playing my games with my friends” 2 hours later “I can’t believe you just ignored me and talked with your friends while I sat here!”
If I ask if everything is all good and you say yes I am going to believe you and walk away lol.
I uh… Have no problem with the llama.
Yeah I remember those.
I don’t know what people seem to only want entirely unsweetened or super diabetic sweetened. Why can’t anyone offer a slightly sweet drink.
I’m telling you it’s a conspiracy by big sugar.
They hated him because he spoke the truth.
Yeah slack is better, but teams isn’t exactly bad.
Laziness. The cans are convenient. I don’t wanna hog up fridge space with a huge jug of liquid that only I would be drinking.
Maybe when I’m living in my own again I’ll get some liquid dispenser thing that lives in my fridge and I’ll just have to figure out the ratio of sugar to tea that I like best.
When they got rid of the open voice chat between teams at the start, halftime switch and ending it basically went away.
I do miss the halftime shit talk spam though. The picosecond everyone could talk to each other you would just get 10 open mics screaming random shit. One guy would just be calling the opposing teams top Fragger a cheating sack of shit. Someone else would bully the bottom Fragger on the other team for only having 4 kills in a half. Someone would blast ear rape music.
A simpler time. haha
