They’ve been planning vance as president from the start .
They’re going to get rid of trump and invoke his name and image to get the worshipers to go along with whatever Pete , jd and whatever other gang of assholes that are waiting in the wings want done.
They’re going to hit him with a poison dart soon , russia style . They got everything they needed out of that bozo
They need to get on that
It really makes you wonder about the type of people that see an ad and say to themselves " I’m going to look into that ".
I see an advertisement and the first thing that pops in my mind is “ok, I’ll stay away from that for sure, i definitelydont want that in my life”
They’re armed with a 300 blackout rifle they can shoot through the glass
But on the upside the drone fleet will always be monitoring and collecting data as far away as their little robot eyes can see
I downvote every one . Even the ones with a puppy dog or cat.
That might be worse than not engaging at all 🤷♂️
I hate the adds…and the bots
Well then they are idiots and I wish them the best
Ha yeah all the niche stuff isn’t here yet but with reddit really fucking shit up on the reg its going to get better.
Lemmy is just cooler. When those communities get going they will be better over here.
Because I like pit bulls and deisel VW’s. Nobody here likes them enough to post every day …or even once a month …or even once every 6 months…maybe once a year
But I’m confident they will one day ! Viva la Pit Bulls !!! Viva La Lemmy!!!
I help friends and family with minor plumbing repairs and they will tell me:
oh I had “x” company come and they did that
" well it’s all wrong "
They charged me a lot of money for that!
" why on earth would you have called them"
Because I saw their advertisement on TV. I thought they were good
" nah they’re crooks"
If is is not carrying solids i agree but the problem would be going beyond the acceptable tollerances of the mechanical joints and glue joints of the fittings.
I have seen too many times something that is forced cause major damage. The cabinetry looks nice and rather than take the time while it is not at the point of no return to make it correct would be foolish. Sometimes you need to drop back and punt 🤷♂️
You need to either open up the wall in that bathroom or on the other side and rough the sanitary line in at the proper height. Don’t fuck around and try to reinvent the wheel when it comes to plumbing, it never works. This shit was figured out long before we got on earth by far more intelligent people than we will ever be
All of them
Because I said so that’s why
Yeah, I know the feeling. It is nice on the rare occasions that we get to meet like minded people in real life ( even on a lemmy thread !) and have genuine conversations that don’t feel like a chess match.
I myself worry that bringing up how some people have been or are being conditioned by advertising and the media of their choice is something they should even be made aware of. It is concerning but I don’t think it is a process that can be reversed.
I enjoy reading a long reply personally and am guilty myself ! Dont give up. Carry on fellow traveler ✌️
Yeah I have seen a lot of trash cans in public parks that get ransacked by wildlife. Raccoons or even crows throwing all the trash out to get into a bag of fast food.
If someone can carry loaded food packaging in they should bring their own bag and pack it all out. It is probably better to lighten the load on the forestry workers by having a smaller number of receptacles available.
I wouldn’t be mildly infuriated by this at all. I try to pick up any trash I see anyhow. It is convenient but doesn’t bother me if I take it home and get rid of it there .
I have also seen friends " youtube feeds" and they are full of videos that I have seen for years and recognized as absolute garbage instantly and never watched, loaded with advertising in the form of “shorts” or a 15 minute commercial for electric scooters (most likely made by amazon, id be curious to know who funds these so called “content creators”) cloaked as a “review of the top 10 best e scooters of 2025” … And rage bait bull shit.
I have tried to explain to these same people how advertising works and that they may be falling victim to the scam.
They immediately get very defensive (I may be a little abrasive in my approach but I should be grabbing their shoulders and shaking the shit out of them while backhanding them across the face.) and they say something like " well you watch youtube videos blah blah". I explain that while I do watch them I am searching for the video and rarely watch anything that I am not actively searching for to gain knowledge about a project in the real world ; that I am hip to how these apps are designed to keep suckers engaged and even change the way a person thinks.
I remember as a kid being fascinated by some advertising, the color schemes , music etc and realizing how powerful they were. That stupid double mint gum commercial is to this day seared into my brain , it will probably blip across the screen when my power gets pulled.
Advertising is a game of minute, magical calcuculations that when done right are imperceptible and like 3 card Monty or the shell game are very good at separating a dummy from their bread.
An overwhelming portion of the public are just receivers awaiting their next mission and they do not want to know any better and get angry when you point it out. Thinking or having curiosity about anything is just not their bag anymore. Advertising is truly evil because if it did not exist the natural tendency wouldn’t be blind consumption.
Check out videos on youtube. They’re fucking crazy little fucks
I’ve got an American pit bull terrier and she thinks she’s a bad ass but I bet if a squirrel attacks me or her she folds up like a lawn chair. She’ll probably run home with her tail between her legs while I get mauled by the little fat fuck
