I hate that our greatest hope is that the guy is 80 and has shit health.

Clearly the people aren’t going to actually do anything besides disapproving looks and politely asking him to stop ignoring the law and constitution.

I haven’t, but interesting they exist!

Headphones of almost all types hurt my ears or fall off too easily to be comfortable.

And my new phone has better sound than my old phone and TV anyways. Yes, both of them ARE around 10 years old.

I feel like they wouldn’t be respectful enough to say “brown skinned man”.

She pets me when she wants attention or food.

Beans and jeans!

I forget where I heard that these are actually used to help train AI, but I don’t doubt they are somehow.

Isn’t there something about insurrectionists not being allowed to be president?

We’re about to allow an insurrectionist to be president.

Pretty sure no silly little written amendment on a piece of parchment will stop him. They sure haven’t before. Those rules only apply when HE wants them to.

He has 2 options.

First is the obvious saying that there’s nothing stopping him from running for a 3rd term, and once again using Jim Crow era vote suppression and other slimy tricks to win again.

The second option is to just declare that presidency is a for-life position. He can do that, after all.

And he’s making that last part perfectly clear. He is above the law. There are no consequences for him breaking the law, and nothing stopping him from doing whatever he wants. The people who could are so polite that if words won’t stop him, they say more words at him. That’ll do it!

For even more fun: agree. Then elaborate. Lean right on into the insult, flip it into a good thing, or a ‘oh thanks for pointing that out, I’ll reflect on that’ depending on the tupe of insult.

It’s amazing how MAD trolls get when you remain calm and treat ad homenim as either a compliment or means to self-reflect.

Watching them try more and more insults, getting angrier and angrier, until they just give up. It brings me joy!

That is a very happy cat.

Sentiment shared.

I went from Firefox, to Chrome (came as default, didn’t swap because browser was fine), to Vivaldi which was really neat when I started learning Chrome was going to become suck, then back to good old Firefox when I learned that Vivaldi is Chromium.

I never saw memes calling out animal ag on that other site outside of confined spaces. Yet on Lemmy they get upvoted in larger communities.

Lemmy is amazing. Keep being the hope for the future, folks. We need it!

Meat and dairy are heavily subsidized by the government (at least in US). Government subsidies for animal agriculture allow them to sell for cheaper because they can sell for less than what it actually costs to make.

It’s sad that bACoN means more to people than the very lives of their loved ones on top of all the moral atrocities inherent in animal ag.

The top reason I don’t have hope for the future. People don’t care if the world burns and disease runs rampant if it means they get their tendies right now.

I read the answers before the question and thought “My local Walmart sells RPGs what’s the joke?”

… Thought it meant Role Playing Games. Not firearms.

You sonovagun.

If you’re out of the loop: There was a Dexter’s Lab episode where the titular character could only say “Omelette du fromage” for the whole episode.

If you know that and an extended reference went over my head… oops!

This is not something I’ve heard of as someone who also doesn’t bother with fast food. Is this like, higher prices during rush hours or something?

I would pay if it were more a more affordable price.

I haven’t browsed apps in ages so idk if it’s still common, but I remember lots of apps having a lite version and a paid version. Lite version has ads and a sometimes couple less features. Full version ad-free and potential extra features.

I liked that. Let me decide if I enjoyed the app enough to pay for the better version.

Before Reddit went down in a fire, I paid premium even though I already had adblocker and no need for the premium features. And I would do the same for YouTube now, if it wasn’t so high priced.

I am consciously learning now what I think I subconsciously already knew. If I value something enough, pay for it. And I DO value YouTube’s videos. The current cost is just a bit uncomfortably steep for a monthly subscription fee.
