I deleted my 14 year old reddit account when they pulled their shit. Then I recently created a new account because I need to be able to get answers to specific programming questions sometimes, and lemmy doesn’t have the population of users that reddit still has. I generally post on both lemmy and reddit, but I almost always get more answers on reddit.

Why are you traveling to make a call? You could just call.

If you gave him an enema he could be buried in a matchbox.

That’s what Christopher Hitchens said about Jerry Falwell when he died. It applies equally to trump.

Lol nerd. Good one though

That’s what I heard. That’s what people are saying.

No, I haven’t. He keeps getting away with shit.

I haven’t seen any evidence he will ever face consequences. I hope I’m wrong.

That’s exactly what this is.

Unfortunately, you are correct. We’re doomed.

I once saw a comment where a guy said that before the internet, if someone wanted to fuck toasters and told anyone, he would be shamed and made fun of to the point where he’d never bring it up again.

With the internet, if someone wants to fuck a toaster, they can go online and find a while community of people who also enjoy fucking toasters, complete with guides and recommendations on the best toasters to fuck.

Its absurd, but it illustrates a great point. So yeah, we are fucked. Pandoras box is open.

Agreed. I also believe we should all stop showing up for work until we are guaranteed health care, a living wage, and reasonable housing prices. We shouldn’t contribute to system that works against us.

Everyone I know has to work multiple jobs and have roommates to be able to afford housing. What is this free time you speak of?

No. The divide between the rich and everyone else is growing. We will be able to afford less and less.

We shame them for being shitty. Don’t engage them in debate, they are used to that. Don’t try to use facts, because they don’t care about facts. Don’t try to convince them of shit.

Make them feel like outcasts and bad people. Brush off what they say when they say horrible shit. Make them have emotional responses to their shitty views. Conservative news targets these people by exploiting their emotions.

And vote. Vote for people who will fix our education system so that our next generation knows how to think for themselves.

That money goes to administrators instead of teachers.

Yep. He is who the U.S. has become. We are an embarrassment.

There would be no risk if everyone did the same thing. You’re only replaceable if there’s someone willing to replace you.

I’m a construction worker. I’m also an adult. If I’m working in the heat, I take a water break whenever I feel like I need one. If I need to go sit in my truck with the ac on, that’s what i do. If anyone has a problem with it, they can fuck right off and find someone else.

All it would take is everyone adopting this same attitude for things to change. Water and rest breaks are taken, not given. It’s your body, not your boss’s. Take care of yourself. Solidarity saves lives.

I think I pretty much agree. I think they would both be me just like me from yesterday and me from a week ago are the same me. They aren’t exactly the same, but they are both versions of me that my current self grew from.

What if the original wasn’t destroyed? Wouldn’t it be a clone then? Which one would feel like it was really you?

My last pair of vans lasted about 3 months. I only skated in them like 2 times too.
