Sometimes, it's more than one, but it is still from these 4.

No, the left didn’t “fail men.”

The dipshits who listen to Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, Andrew Tate etc do so because they want their misogyny to be validated.

If you want to fight back against this type of shit, you need to stop trying to meet these sacks of shit halfway.

This is the shit U.S. independent Amazon sellers put up with because Jeff Bezos is a disgusting pig.

Product cost (music CD): $3
Product sell price: $9.79
Amazon ship reimbursement: $3.99

Actual shipping charges: -$4.26
AMAZON FEE: -$4.86

My total profit: $1.66

This is felony level usury. Every f--king day.

@th3j35t3r Yup. And what I'm hearing from a lot of people is their list of things to do about that is:

- sign a petition
buy something to comfort themselves off Amazon
- hide
- update their passport
- take a vacation
- expect "someone" to "do something"
- expect "the law" to prevail
- bitch
- nothing

My advice to them is:
There is no garden to which you may flee.

This will follow you.

Take a stand.

This isn't a just president-elect picking people for cabinet slots. It's an actual hostile takeover.

There. I said it.

@stueytheround I too am very glad. A breath of fresh air when I needed one.

Cheers!!

@Coffee_and_Salt Now *that* is what you call a good review! So glad you found coso and that we met.

I have social anxiety.

I don’t talk to strangers, don’t hang in groups, don’t do basic things most people do in terms of socializing. I don’t say a percentage of what I’m thinking even when it’s totally reasonable to share.

Know what can really mess up a person with social anxiety? Social media. 🫠

But here, I don’t really have that issue. I’ve encountered people I’ve become friends with.

It helps counter the social anxiety.

So thanks to CoSo, its creators and continuators.

You’re a gift.

I already posted my Happy Birthday message earlier, but one thing I didn't do was celebrate this birthday together with the friends I've met since the day CoSo went public.

Some have been friends since Day 1, others in the weeks & months afterwards and still others in the years that followed. But those of you I consider friends all share the connection that I wouldn't know if if CoSo hadn't come about. I'm grateful for all of you, and here's to many more years of friendship 🍻 ❤️ 🎉

Happy B'day to CoSo!

I haven't been here for all 7 years, but I have been around long enough to get the golden checkmark. I've never regretted making the move.

Thanks to everyone for the support over the past few years, and thanks to @th3j35t3r for putting this place together.

2025 is going to suck, but it can also be amazing for those of us fighting against the tide.

Oh! I picked up a fun little nugget of knowledge too! Apparently there's a law in indiana that you can turn someone in for "intimate images" (*ahem* the unwanted pics us ladies receive). Can be a misdemeanor or a level 6 felony.

Excellent advice going forward. I use TFG as opposed to 45 as the use of 45 reinforces that he was ever qualified to be one and dishonors the position.

Happy 7th Birthday, CoSo! Thank you @th3j35t3r for creating an awesome and safe virtual space for all of us. We really appreciate it! 🥳

I wouldn't want to chat, debate, or converse anywhere else with anybody else! 😁 There's no place like "home" (CoSo).
