Yes: all modern democracies.

That seems relevant to me, a disinterested observer. 🤷‍♂️

Yes: that helping isn’t always easy or rewarded but that we do it anyway because it is what’s right.

Jewell married Dana Jewell in 1998; they remained married until his death.[2] The couple relocated to a farm they bought together, south of Atlanta.[21] In 2001, Jewell was honored as the Grand Marshal of Carmel, Indiana’s Independence Day Parade. Jewell was chosen in keeping with the parade’s theme of “Unsung Heroes”.[22] On each anniversary of the bombing until his illness and eventual death, he privately placed a rose at the Centennial Olympic Park scene where spectator Alice Hawthorne died.[23]

An example for others for sure.

The point is not to be afraid of these tin-armied dictators.

If you are quoting a word or short phrase you use this form to make it quicker and easier for the listener to understand.

If you quote a long section, saying “quote, <long quote>, unquote.” is common and accepted.

Like watching people argue fanfic canon in here. 😅

You are … making my point.

I worry sometimes that the reddit exodus brought mostly bellyachers.

The sheer boringness of these repeated questions about the size, growth, health of the fediverse.

Fuck metrics. Jesus, do you mot get it at all?

Fuck this sim they said they would never make because 2020 was supposed to just be a live service.

Plus, they didn’t deliver on tons of promised things, like multicrew.

Don’t buy this, don’t trust MS.

This, however, is not the case in many more densely populated areas that tend to be more blue. There are often long lines for few polling stations. In some places you really do need a plan to be able to vote, especially if you are balancing it with other responsibilities like work or childcare.

For anyone who hasn’t waited hours in line to vote - your democracy sounds nice, the rest of us have to work real hard to make sure our (often less impactful due to the EC).vote counts.

Fuck the businesspeople trying to run all our conpanies into the ground.

I think it’s more of a “small dick energy” thing than actually body shaming people.

Do you honestly not see the problem here? Read the sentence to yourself again slowly to make sure.

You forget one thing: the bulk of his supporters are old as fuck. They don’t have a lot of elections left in them. I would be far less pessimistic about '28. (Not that I think it’s a lock for the left, just that if Trump loses this time he has really fucked up the GOP and it may take a decade or two to get back to the power levels they have now.)

Edit for clarity: I believe this is a cursed object in general, not just mine.

Bad people with money in developed nations use that money to radicalize and direct people in less developed nations. 🤷‍♂️

bits and pieces and … bita and pieces and …

We are all just fighting entropy for a while. How you got into the alive club? That shit don’t matter. You’re here. You’re one of us. You don’t need a permission slip.

Yep, and it seems like we have stopped putting riders on our weapons to Israel where it seems like they’re using them to steal land.

Yet we have them on weapons we give to Ukraine who are <checks notes> trying to get back their stolen land.

The cognitive dissonance my country subjects me to is fucking cruel and unusual.

What kind of post is this? I see them sometimes on fedia.io - I can read the title but there is no image and it doesn’t seem to link to anything.

Anyone else on an mbin instance knkw what’s up with these?
