When getting advice, consider if the speakers life is one you want for yourself.

You do you, we’re all entitled to our opinions but super duper hard disagree there.

On characters alone it shows up the originals, Jyn and Andor have much more nuanced reasons to be in the rebellion than than either Han or Leia which leads to stronger story arcs.

Waaaah…

Menace and Jedi sure, absolutely trash. But Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie.

If I have to pick a burger, then same! But if we’re talking vegan fast food options than my first choice is always gonna be fresco style burritos at 🌮 🔔

His wife told News 12 Long Island in a recorded interview that she was undergoing an MRI on her knee when she asked the technician to get her husband to help her get off the table. She said she called out to him.

Whole thing is heart breaking all around. I feel for the technician who made an honest but very serious mistake. And I’m sure the wife will spend her days regretting asking for help. Just a fucking tragic situation. :/

Nah, this is one more landmark on the eventual enshitifcation of every platform, only happening because as company that is publicly traded. Someone at Reddit HQ realized that they could make more money off new french users than the cost of ads. So then they have a fiduciary duty to do exactly that. Just like the reddit API-ocalypse, the finical benefits data from every redditors mobile being forced to use the official app was determined to be more profitable than those who would be pissed enough to leave.

Either Lemmy dies or it grows enough to do the same eventually.

It’s pretty lame to use the (imperically correct concept) of, no ethical consumption under capitalism to blanket absolve you of willful, informed choices. Humans all eat approx the same amount of calories, but the production of said calories are far from equal. Like you can be mad at the statistics but that doesn’t really change the reality of an unnecessary cultural pratice which massively contributes to climate.

I mean just for your own sake, stop this line of thinking at “I don’t care” instead of looking for a scapegoat to justify you indifference as praxis.

🙄

This is such a colossal cop out. Without question corporations and individual billionaires produce more pollution by several magintuedes of individual people. But even that is a drop in the bucket between the deforestation, the years of transporting food for livestock and the final transportation of end product meat to the world population that can be fed on plant based protein.

Save this line for plastic straws and other frivolous demonization from those in private jets. But don’t use it as a thought terminating cliche aginst the single biggest source of historical human made climate change.

It’s evil to take someones money.

Except when you are buying things? Look at it as living in society with roads, fire fighters and clean water requires a purchase.

There is nothing morally wrong with paying people who provide a service.

I never gave HER a dime but it was the platform I met my eventual wife on. However unless you’re looking to meet other ladies, it’s probably not the app for you.

Sooooo… we’re doing incel shit posting now?

This sort of black pill doomerism seriously destroys your mental health. You don’t have to be a Chad to find a girlfriend friends, but thinking your not “conventionally attractive” enough to date is a self fulfilling prophecy.

Fascinating! TIL

It still feels a little odd to me that restaurants don’t ask “smoking or non?”. Don’t get me wrong, I’m delighted everything stopped smelling like ash. But it’s surreal to remember my grand parents chain smoking over pancakes at Dennys.

The death toll from Israel supporting Americans exponentially dwarfs the number of Americans harmed by MS-13.

Both constantly and never. I was born to teen parents, so as far back as I can remember, every other day, my Dad would constantly say “Whatever you do, don’t get her pregnant.” Even when I was far too young to understand what pregnant or sex was.

But the closest thing I got to “the talk” was when I was 17 and he randomly barges into the living, throws a pack of condoms at me, says “wrap your schlong” and then keeps walking to his bedroom.

Later that night I told him that A) I wasn’t having sex B) didn’t plan on it and C) that I wasn’t even sure what to do with a condom or how throwing one at me was helpful. He shrugged “Sorry I don’t have ace parenting skills or whatever” and that was the end of it.

I thought I learned how to have sex by watching porn, but… obviously that wasn’t true so I had to be taught everything by partners. Including extremely basic things like what semen, periods or orgasms were.

Thanks Dad…

Well, I got it right here in the name.

It’s 2025 and I’m reading Slaughterhouse Five again. So it goes.

Feed the hungry, house the homeless and welcome the stranger.

Dude, just stop. This took two seconds to find and frankly it’s a weird hill to die on. It’s okay for a hot take to be wrong, just accept it and think of this moment before your post your next.

What? No. Rashida Talib is literally a palestinian house representative who has been saying all this for awhile now. Dems can and should be doing more, but both sides aren’t the same here. If she somehow took the stage at CPAC she would without question be attacked.

Laws are threats by those with power to enforce them. The UN will not threaten the US under any circumstance in any meaningful way. So for them to decide something is illegal is meaningless and, quite literally, of no consequence.
