There only being that one playbook is the exact reason why I have a patch on my backpack that reads: “Evil is boring”

He followed Glenn Greenwald down the “I feel like people don’t respect my leftism enough, so I’m gonna join the alt-right” path

We have to pay for the services we use somehow. I’d rather it be cash than the details of my entire life. But the money to operate those services has to come from somewhere

Herd animals gonna herd animal ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Loki be like…

Maybe let’s try focusing on content and not personal characteristics of the presenters:

I’m way more annoyed by that terrible echoey microphone

You have to wonder if we aren’t just confirming what the Great Filter is. There may not be any space faring civilizations.

“Women are specifically stating that the direct reason they’re choosing to delay pregnancy is the fall of Roe creating emergency health concerns.”

“I dunno, are you sure you can believe what women say? Did you check the “real” data?”

Unfortunately we have to use large bore needles for blood. Smaller needles will damage red blood cells :/

(I’m a nurse. It’s a problem when giving blood transfusions to smaller people also.)

I just want one of those Hawaii-style text message warnings, so I can start driving toward Boston asap

If you’re lucky enough to be one of the minimal handful who actually die in the quick flash. More likely you’ll be one of the multitudes poisoned by radioactive fallout or starved by nuclear winter.

It’s not better.

This was not a good year for me to pick up Kim Stanley Robinson’s “Ministry of the Future” book

But it’s also about cost. Nuclear is far more expensive upfront, more expensive to maintain, and more expensive to decommission. Cheap, agile renewables will be an easier option for the vast majority of the planet

It doesn’t recognize kbin.social? Maybe I input the url incorrectly. Just curious

Thank you for this context. It’s really affects the messaging here

Thank you for reminding me that I would love to own a copy of the TNG Tech Manual for display in my house

This is an actual conversation I had with my oldest nephew when we went to the Boston Tea Party Museum last week.

“If you ever hear people complaining that damaging commercial property during a protest is unacceptable, remember what you learn about the Tea Party today. Our country was literally founded on protests trashing commercial property. And remember that some people complained to them that it was unacceptable too.”

I mean, that’s exactly my point though. People seem to be knee jerk assuming that the “leftist” accusations against the .ml instances are standard issue right wing hyperbole against progressive liberals and that’s not the case. It’s just as much that progressives are complaining because we have no interest in associating with tankies.

No, no there are literally tankies. Lemmy.ml the ml means marxist-leninist and lemmygrad.ml is just straight up tankie CCP apologists
