He’s said some incredibly stupid things, but this is next level.
The hamster powering his brain is clearly just a rotting pile of sludge now. How can anyone look at this masterclass in utter ignorance and see anything other than a senile old fool who should be in a nursing home for his own protection?
Nearly 80% of republicans think this is okay? What wouldn’t they think is okay from him? It seems they’d be fine with his actual corpse being wheeled round on a trolley by Vance & co. Astounding.
Yeah, but with the fascists in charge, not only will that never happen, they’re dedicated to undermining standard literacy, nevermind adding media and fictional literacy.
Kinda feels like we’re doomed.
Oh, some of us know. And some of us are sick of the edging.
We’re going there, inexorably. They’re trying to pretend that’s not what’s happening, and loads of people are happy to go along with it out of… denial? Blissful ignorance?
But some of us just wish they’d drop the fragments of their mask, already, so we can stop debating where we are in the 14 steps and just fucking deal with the problem.
It’s fine, we’re good. Sorry for coming out with the claws, I thought you were a MAGA troll. I also shouldn’t post drunk.
Wasn’t he sanctioned on his return to Spain because even his own people at the time were like ‘no dawg, that was despicable’?
Fucking do it, pussy. Let’s see the backlash.
Actually, a lot of them are idiots.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t take intelligence to fuck everything up. Case in point:
Hitler Was Incompetent and Lazy—and His Nazi Government Was an Absolute Clown Show
I think the bigger problem is many of us have been conditioned to think idiots are mostly benign and nothing to really worry about, when the opposite is true. Idiocy in power is very dangerous.
The worst atrocities in history have been committed mostly when idiots were in charge.
e: if you read that article mentally substituting ‘Hitler’ with ‘Trump’, it’s uncanny how it’s nearly 100% accurate.
It was fast, efficient, and nobody else was involved, I guess?
I could give you diarrhoea, or sepsis, or tetanus, your choice! I’m flexible and I don’t judge. I just love being inside you!
Trump humiliates everyone behind closed doors. Most of all, himself. And also with open doors. And stairs, and windows, and on the roof.
Trump is humiliation personified.
I haven’t seen this with alphabetical characters.
e: here’s the comment:
This may or may not be associated with music stands or equipment. I can’t remember.
I just emptied and re-did my music/video room, and found this bracket in a small box with no labels or anything. I can’t remember what it’s for. I think it’s either audio or video related, but it doesn’t seem to match any of my mic or equipment stands, though it might be. It’s devoid of any branding or part/serial numbers. No markings of any kind.
It folds like this:

There’s a sliding mount screw on the bottom:
Thanks!

Took me a while and an AskLemmy post to figure this out, since I initially thought Lemmy was auto-modding commenters (which kinda made me panic), but this is what I see:
I am the only mod in this community, and others aren’t seeing this flag everywhere, so commenters aren’t actually modded.
Is this a bug with Voyager or with my instance?
Is this a Lemmy thing? Something with lemmy.ca? Something about Voyager?
I tried looking it up but found nothing that might explain this. I have a community that’s super niche and I don’t post there much, but I do on occasion. I don’t care that it’s not that active – it’s enough for me.
Over the past couple of days, I’ve had a tiny amount of interaction, and everyone who posts seems to be automatically flagged as a mod. What’s happening?
e: this is what I see:
It looks like they’re actually tier 1 (they seem to be standing on a white platform), but what, if any, weight is each layer above them? I can see narrow platforms, but are they all taking most of the weight?
I’m not sure whether this was meant as an athletic or purely aesthetic display – since they’re billed as ‘acrobats’, I assumed skill was involved, so what would be the best and worst case scenario those 8-10 in the narrowest tier would be supporting?
e: was there any kind of structural support in this? I’m not finding much about it.
Here’s a Snopes article about this event at the 1980s Olympics in Moscow.
It’s not about making something useful. He and a few others are cloning everything any of their cult might use to further fence them in from external information and entertainment.
They’re having a harder time in entertainment, because artists tend to be more liberal, but they’re gaining ground there, too. After a certain point, they’ll just radically censor everything else.
