Wonderful software, easy payment, great rates, but lack of port forwarding is a major fallback. I understand it was due to a very minor chunk of bad actors, but that minor chunk was hosting CSAM and other horrible internet-accessible things, and no way to track what traffic is where, means they had to remove the feature for the 98% of good faith users.

But I almost refuse to use AirVPN’s software. It’s so… weird. I’m thankful they support wireguard with zero issues, so I can just use the default network manager and apps for Linux/Android, but that client interface is so backwards compared to Mullvad and iVPN.

Still miss port forwarding.

That is genuinely amazing, losing 60 ships to a country without an actually big navy. Invading Ukraine to have warm waters for your navy, and you still lose.

This is Russia’s “don’t invade Russia in winter”. Don’t launch a naval assault on Ukraine, apparently.

“Fine, if you’re not going to vote Biden, at least vote down ballot. Primaries and local offices are the next wave of politicians.”

[Funds into primaries to remove progressives from office, backs conservatives because of “electability”.]

“Oh uh, sorry. By the way this is you, the pleb’s fault, not the rich we gladly accept. Maybe next year we won’t pull the football out of the way when someone pays us to?”

• Freeing Mexican citizens locked in cages at the border, but has in fact increased the numbers according to the ACLU, and now limiting the numbers of who can come in like fascist Trump wanted
• The COVID pandemic is still ongoing, we’re just ignoring it while I’ve had friends die from it after it was “over” according to the CDC. Also removing the 14 day expected leave for it to improve companies fucking over sick and healthy workers alike the economy
• Roe v Wade being reinstated, for the party that “cares about women’s rights”.
• Minimum Wage increases (Yes Congress is in charge of the purse, but can he say “please fucking do it so everyone has better income?”)
• Ran on trying to stop cops from shooting innocent civilians, but in his first State of the Union said “We don’t need to defund the police, we need to fund the police!” to bipartisan roaring applause. I know he has a fucking cop as a VP, but god damn.
• And he’s not doing anything to stop Project 2025 from getting into place if Trump wins.
• Could maybe consider giving new arms to Ukraine and stop funding explicit genocide in Palestine.
• Didn’t help the unions during the rail strikes give into the demands for better worker safety and benefits, blocking it like how Reagan blocked the FAA from striking for safety and benefits
• Still allows Trump-era expansions of spying agencies, that was made public under “constitutional lawyer and defender” Obama, and instated under Dubya.

But we don’t have the President saying stupid shit on Twitter every day, so I guess that means we’re back to a sane normal, or whatever white cishet liberals need to say to sleep well at night. Ignore the bloodshed of BIPOC and queers, women and their doctors fleeing red states over being arrested for bodily autonomy, and that white nationalists just goosestep freely because its not respectable to tell fascists to fuck off and die, it doesn’t impact you, so it’s all sane politics and electable!

But they did make headlines, that’s how we know about these. The FTC and FCC doing their job more is good and makes headlines.

It’s good, don’t get me wrong. But man it feels like table scraps compared to a lot on what Biden ran on in 2020.
