RE: The hierarchy of principles.
As a non-canadian, I of course disagree with number 1 in principle, but I agree in practice (I mean, as far as jurisdictions go, canada is alright, I guess). Other than that, I find it fairly reasonable.

As I am but a random user with no privilege to speak of, I don’t find that my mandate (or lack thereof) would clash with anything outside of normal content moderation on various communities I mod.

I remember seeing some movie (don’t remember the name) with a very familiar face playing a character dying from an overdose pretty earlt on. After checking the credits, I noticed that Jim went as James Carrey back then.

They/them, I guess

The ones I’ve come to really like for their consistent quality results are:

• Prusament (PETG)
• Fiberlogy (ASA) <-- I’m sure i have a navy blue spool from them in my print room. I’d double check, but it’s way past my bed time
• eSun (ABS)
• Addnorth (Various)

No regrets since buying my Lenovo Legion little over a year ago. Mint ran fine out of the box, and I use it for everything, gaming included.

Whenever I read “spurals”, “meltdown”, or “fuming” I just interpret it as some asshats angrily posting on twitter

Then that’s on you for missing the point entirely

No. I have a star shaped tattoo. Because I like star shapes.

I already exist, and that’s enough justification on its own. Whether you care or not doesn’t make a difference.

Now, swap around “I” and “you”.

No. High school for me was spent with people with which I have nothing in common, so I didn’t keep in touch with anyone there.

I still stumble into people I once knew, and I of course say hi and engage in some chitchat, but nothing beyond that.
