@KitsuneAlicia @codl ahh I see, yeah that’s so annoying. I go into captcha-loops most of the time because I’m blocking too much. So god damn annoying 😖

@frameacloud @tindall I saw https://www.freetaxusa.com highly recommended on several tax-related threads on https://old.reddit.com/r/personalfinance.

@KitsuneAlicia @codl I’m pretty sure with Blockada (https://blokada.org) you can import your own block lists which could help.

"White People: I don't want you to understand me better; I want you to understand yourselves. Your survival has never depended on your knowledge of white culture. In fact, it’s required your ignorance."

“Researchers at MIT warn that if #ClimateChange remains unchecked (Business As Usual-scenario = RCP 8.5) over half a billion people will, from 2070 onwards, experience humid heat waves that will kill even healthy people in the shade within 6 hours. The Wet Bulb Temperature (WBT) would exceed 35°C (95°F), at which the body – of any mammal – cannot cool itself, overheats and shuts down.”
