it seems the context of this call was democratic governors such as beshear trying to push senators to do more to obstruct the trump administration in its efforts. he specifically says they should focus more on the lack of material efforts to improve the lives of the american people by the trump admin, rather than a "desecration of american democracy".

in that light, i think the tone of the quoted section is more sympathetic, that the american people 'will' have to deal with the harms of trumps admin, in order to be more conscientious of how they vote in the future.

i think he still misses the mark in that not only do the democrats need to point out the material harms, they need to present efforts of material gains as well. but the tone of the conversation was not governors are trying to inflict maximum harm to their constituents as some sort of 'revenge'.

if an app is available both on fdroid and the play store, and you already have google services installed, then it is almost always better to use the play store version. unless fdroid has changed recently, the way apps are signed is more robust and the chain of trust more resistant to manipulation for apps on the play store.

if you are asking if the selection of apps on each distributor are on the whole more secure in the way they provide their service, that's a more complicated question i can't answer.

it's possible they have downloading apps over a cellular connection turned off, though if you initiate the download, there should be a way to force it. you can also always access the actual bank website via a browser.

it is kinda weird that the coc specifically calls out the worship of shelled cephalopods.

people don't tend to post on social media if their life is going really great. most people post to complain or to pretend it's great.

it's voting in the wrong lizard logic. people didn't show up to vote against the wrong lizard, so they assign them blame, since not having lizards isn't thought of as a realistic option.
