Exactly. Sure we can say “I told you so” a bit but we also need to just highlight how many folks are changing their minds and it’s ok to do that.

This is the way. We should have servers that are community only and user only, imho.

We’re in a good spot and a good community already. All things equal, we’re about as safe as we could be, but I worry about what national level things they’ll try to do.

I have a bad feeling that my 9yo trans daughter was born at the wrong time and will have to deal with some bullshit. Though I guess you could say that for almost any time in the recent or distant past…

I want him to get drunk, go on a podcast, and just spill the tea. What does he really think. I mean, I think I know, but I’d love to hear his honest opinion of the games that were played, who dropped the ball, and what he thinks of all the players, outside of what we glean from the filings.

The evil ones always live the longest, annoyingly.

Maybe, maybe not. Looking at the answers from her “AOC and Trump” voter cross-section, it seems like you just need to run someone who’s “genuine.” Both of them are seen as genuine or real (whether that’s true or not, it doesn’t matter).

Populism can cut both ways and AOC might be just the ticket we need.

I queued with two guys in a video game Wednesday morning who spouted that line. I was taken aback. How do you effectively respond to someone who says that? I didn’t handle it well, but I have thought about it a lot since it happened. I remember playing with shock humor when I was in high school, but that is beyond the pale.

Misinformation has been shown to be extremely effective. We just potentially voted away our democracy and the people that did so legit thought they were saving it.

This the the answer. The two major tenets of his platform are “raise tarrifs” (inflationary!) and “deport immigrants” (raising costs on production). Shit is going to get more expensive, but it won’t matter if facts continue not to matter and you have a boogieman to shake your stick at.

Will someone please think of the companies!!!

We would just need Wisconsin or Pennsylvania to adopt it if the currently “pending” states adopted it. This is actually a lot closer to being possible than I thought.

Don’t forget to add padding, so I’d just round it out to 18 months to be safe.

I know this is about Fox, but I want to continue to share that neither is NPR. It is an independent nonprofit that operates independently of the government and gets less than 1% of it’s operaiting budget from federal sources.

This will certainly be brought up in his next bail hearing, eh? He’s a flight risk!

2023 Minnesota law Walz signed mandating free menstruation products in all public school restrooms used by students in grades four to 12.

Yep, that’s a scarlet badge of honor in my book.

Leave spacex board and sell or we nationalize.

Yeah, Lemmy doesn’t block you from accessing it via a VPN, for one.
