Artist, musical performer, and former derby skater from the Midwest.

I’m single, childless, and married to freedom and adventure.

ACAB, Anti-War, and I hate Democrats, Republicans, and billionaires. (Yes, even your favorite billionaire: the pop star, the philanthropost, the legendary athlete, or the soft-spoken investment guru who cosplays as middle class.) With each passing day I get a little closer to hating everyone.

Also, I refuse to use Donald’s last name out of hatred for the man and his brand, FYI.

  • People keep saying “But Axon and Motorola”, but they seem to be unaware that the widespread, lawful resistance to Flock has hit them where it counts… in the wallet, which is why Flock is buying out employees.

    The problem is people hate the tech, it doesn’t work properly, and pivoting to a new brand won’t fix the problem. If you can get Americans in 36 states to get off their asses, go to city council meetings, and lawfully motivate politicians to stop using it, it’s not going to matter what brand name is on the camera.


  • Respectfully, the facts demonstrate otherwise, given that Donald (going off his disapproval rating) is the most unpopular president in history. People hate that we have a pedo as president, they’re just powerless to do anything about it until the next election.

    Further, in just the last four months Flock has lost nearly 400 contracts in 36 states, and largely off boring, lawful resistance. It’s why they’re offering employee buyouts, and it doesn’t matter if some jurisdictions pivot to Motorola or Axon because the technology simply does not work and will still be unregulated.

    There is something in the cultural DNA of Americans that truly hates this technology, and what’s even worse… it fails often and spectacularly enough that people are even angrier.










  • Hi there!

    SlickDeals isn’t actually a retailer, but a community for bargain hunters. Basically someone sees a good deal and posts about it, and the community sees these posts and upvotes the best deals, but the best thing about it is you can create an email alert to yourself and add keywords, so you get an email when someone posts a deal matching that keyword. If you have a regular shopping list you use or staple products you know you’ll need interminably, like toilet paper (or for me, crew neck t shirts) it’s a really great way to get around price gouging or find a good bulk purchase to stock up.

    I’m guessing there’s a non US equivalent if it doesn’t work in your country, since price gouging’s happening everywhere, but I can’t say for sure what it might be.
