UK here. We just switched to a Labour government a few months ago and it turns out that the previous Conservative government blew a £22 billion hole in the economy and didn’t tell anyone, so now the new government have to deal with it by raising taxes which is pissing everybody off.

In particular, they’re changing the way inheritance tax works which is screwing over farmers, so they’re now doing mass protests.

Yeah when I joined IIRC I just had to write a sentence about why I wanted to join. The communism thing made me laugh though!

I used to have complete anarchy in my Downloads folder, but I’ve since reformed my ways and now my Downloads folder is clean and my Videos and Documents folders are complete anarchy instead.

For me it’s Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I just gave up again after bouncing off it for like the third time. On paper it’s exactly the sort of thing I should be into, but that game just doesn’t respect your time.

I use addy.io to create aliases for different things, and then set up filters in Thunderbird to mark them as they come in so, for example, if I make an account at xyz.com and then I get a bunch of unrelated spam marked as coming from xyz.com, then I know they’ve been selling my info.

I probably have about a dozen or so aliases currently, but they’re pretty loosely organized.
