Wearing a LGBTQ+ shirt with a text that says ‘all colors are beautiful’, which is of course ACAB. My manager, whose husband is a cop, came to me and said ‘wow, cool shirt! All colors ARE beautiful!’ and I thought that was funny.

This is my 100th comment on Lemmy. Figured it’s only fitting to have it here in the General.
Thanks to everyone in the community, I’ve been learning a lot here <3Stealing some inspiration from Oppo, here’s a picture of a mighty-fine critter.
Leaving Reddit and X because this past week has been chaotic and I felt that I couldn’t take it anymore, is the world going absolutely fucking mad? Yankee Stadium (FTY btw) honoring a hateful, homophobic, piece of crap; the NFL too! James Hetfield vows to take care of this dude’s kids for the rest of their life, what the fuck? Reddit and X are filled with misinformation, calls to punish the left, non-sensical arguments constantly being thrown as facts. For a few days, I could not make sense of things!
I use Reddit for mostly non-political stuff, but last week was chaotic. My use of X has been sporadic because I know it’s a shithole, but even the accounts I follow for science and stuff like that were posting or reposting a heavy dose of insanity. Things make more sense in here <3
Those two shitholes of a social media must go what most people don’t realize is that most of the content on twitter and Reddit are just bots that side of the internet is dead
whats up with celebrities trying to take care of his kids? the dude was richer than them lmao, i know Hetfield is MAGA but also saw that David Ortiz vowed to do the same? BRO THE PEOPLE FROM YOUR COUNTRY NEED IT MORE THAN HIS KIDS
James Hetfield was a fake story. Had to look that up because that would have gotten a deep belly laugh from me as I have an inside joke about Metallica secretly funding modern right-wing influencers.
Just got banned on reddit from a trot sub (didnt know they were trots) after reading trotskyist bs and replying to it (they accused me of sectarianism but not the trot i was responding to LMAO)
Another day, another banger

From our Brazilian comrades! They unfurl a 70-meter Palestinian flag on the Sao Paulo cable-stayed bridge.
Ah I wish that I could buy and show a billboard like this in my country:
Very cool! I translated it with Yandex, but it doesn’t seem entirely accurate.
The translation should be like this:
- MAY 9, 1945 GERMANY WAS DEFEATED
- SEPTEMBER 3, 1945 JAPAN WAS DEFEATED
- STALIN - THIS IS A VICTORY!
The hair on my arms is standing up 🤯. Thank you! 😅

this translation reminds me of the “world is a fuck” meme

From an anti-zionist Jewish organization in Mexico:
Translation of the message:
- There is no neutrality in front of a genocide
- Mexico, Unite with the group of the Hague!
- T-shirt message: Jews for a Free Palestine
Weekly Palestine demo in my city today and our party invited Chris Smalls from the Amazon union struggle and the Freedom Flotilla as he was at our festival this weekend. Pretty dope.
I’m watching this new movie, Warfare, about some soldiers in Iraq. It’s a little hard not to notice that the good guys seem to be using the locals as human shields.
I remember actual military aficionados & and veterans alike roasting the movie for depicting US soldiers anachronistically using modern gear & kit.
An intentional design choice as like all American war movies it’s supposed to be pro-military.
I have 250 posts and over 1.5k comments.
Cannot fuckin’ believe it’s been two years already. it feels like I joined this board yesterday and I’m still new.
You all make this place feel like a welcoming home.
Just want to say you’re by far one of the most welcoming, informative, and pleasant users on this site. Thanks for all you do, comrade!
Yeah it’s definitely been one of the things keeping me going.
Coworker and I:
dude: “Man, it’s fucking crazy people are celebrating the death of a guy who got assassinated”
me: “Isn’t it crazy that people straight up had celebrations and town-wide festivals when MLK got shot?”
dude: “Yeah, but it was a different time”
Bros pretending kyle rittenhouse didn’t exist? The dude was celebrated for killing people and provided immunity.
B-But he shot a pedo!
I think this community shouldn’t use the Juche calendar anymore, because the DPRK and KWP have ceased use of it as of the 1st of January 2025 in all official media. So it’s not really honoring Korea anymore.
I think its mostly a joke.
That’s what I’ve deduced at this point.
I mean it can’t be that serious considering the community logo is Xi with laser eyes lmaooo
Will we still be able to practice Juche necromancy?
I hope you all have a nice week :D
You too!
Have a nice week comrades! o7
Lmfao! We are horse
You too!
You too Oppo :D
Wish you the same!
