You’d think people who want to live forever would care more about the environment. But I guess the worst consequences they’ll face is a shorter ski season.

Standard furniture kink, just in water? Sounds like fun. I’m curious about buoyancy though.

Etcetera knows what it did. 😤

I support gay rights but I LOVE gay wrongs.

Throughout history, a terrible number of people have died because some zealot thought they were doing the right thing.

If a police officer “knows” someone is guilty, what do you think about breaking the rules to ensure they are punished?

She drinks wine while playing with her niece. He steals from cancer patients. It all evens out. /s

The DNC is working for their rich donors and doing a pretty decent job for them. They shouldn’t act so surprised that people who aren’t benefiting from the economy don’t come out to support them.

Most restaurants keep reservations in a $2.75 spiral notebook.

I doubt an online reservation calendar would be $10k for a single restaurant, but still…the only profit is marginal: the people who eat there who would have without the online calendar, and I doubt it would recoup the costs in a quarter or two. Especially considering that the wealth gap and tech gap mean that the number of people who want to schedule online is inversely related to the people who can afford to eat out a lot.

Date who you want. Do what you think is best. But it’s weird that abortion is so often posited as a gender question when race is a better predictor. If white women stop voting for Republicans all of our rights would be safe.

Talk to your mothers and aunts, the rest of us can’t outvote them yet.

I am shocked and disgusted with myself for not having read this already. To the library!

I get where you’re coming from, but the reason I disagree is because you’re assuming these people are acting in good faith. Why do they need a title?

Queer folk have always used symbols to distinguish ourselves and find others. We’re ~10% of the population and it’s necessary. Straight people do not commonly do so, and 100% of the people who feel the need to wear it like a badge are actually signaling their refusal to let the rest of us exist.

I, for one, would feel perfectly comfortable in an MMO with 90% straight people. (This is just called existing in public.) I would leave immediately if 90% of people wore a “Straight” title for no discernable reason.

Coward

I’ve decided to believe that there was a grueling audition process and he ultimately had to go forward with his second choice.

This is just astoundingly out of touch. When I asked “why”, I was looking for evidence. What evidence do you have to support your supposition? Nothing.

To the contrary, polling says that only 10% of people cared about Gaza. The American people are largely tuned out of politics. Democrats’ first instinct is to always blame leftists, but the problem is that people don’t want to vote for more of the same.

Harems seem to seldom be consensual. It’s too bad really. But also one just doesn’t hear about consensual nonmonogamy much in the mainstream, so I suppose there probably are some.

It is on the candidate to inspire people. Yeah, the left was lukewarm to a candidate that was trying her best to court Republicans. How else could you expect that to play out?

Only 10% of the electorate even cared about Gaza. You’re giving the American people entirely too much credit.

You really think the 15 million people who voted for Biden but not Kamala was “misplaced sense of moral superiority”? Why?

Imagine thinking that billions of dollars in campaign funds were overturned by a picture posted on Lemmy.

The Left is a group so insignificant that we don’t need to cater to their positions at all, but so massive that they’re completely responsible any time we lose.

That’s not an argument that being filmed at a polling place is dangerous.
