I mean, what’s your definition of “safe?” There are benefits and drawbacks to every form of currency. Credit is centralized and benefits massive pieces of shit and requires computing power. Cash is untraceable, and it doesn’t fund anything in particular (minus the federal reserve, but that’s a huge complicated stupid convo), but if you lose it or get it stolen, you can’t file a complaint and get it credited back to you.
I’ve used cash over the internet. It’s a matter of mailing it and getting a product in return. Or you can use the apps that aren’t linked to visa and PayPal. But it’s all a trade off, for sure.
Also, we need to stop thinking of shopping on the Internet as the only way to get products for money. Buy local every opportunity you can, that’s the best answer
Cash. Start using cash again.

Isn’t it so crazy how these people talking casually among their friends is never “who they are” but them walking it back via a publicist because it hurt them is who they actually are?
Just sooo crazy! And the one and only time they’re talking like “someone they’re not” someone happens to be recording it and it’s bad for their career! The world sure is a crazy place
I feel like I’d be embarrassed to still listen to the same music I listened to at 14. 14 year old me didn’t have terrible taste, but goddamn there has been so much music since. I’m nearing 40 and I’m still finding new and more interesting or challenging music to listen to
Realizing that emotions aren’t and can never be binary is HOMO STUFF

TheCleric@lemmy.orgto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Thank god the debt got blown up so that suppressors are tax free17·16 days agoThose systems were forced into city budgets even though they’re highly prone to mistakes and mostly useless. It was basically some sweetheart deal for the company that manufactures it, and placed almost entirely in lower income neighborhoods. Fuck that stupid ass bloatware—not to mention fuck the eavesdropping machines that they really are. Sensitive microphones and you think the cops are only using that access to listen for gunshots? Fuuuuck no.
