  • Best Buy Membership "discount"

  • Yeah….also curious. It's been a couple of years but when I previously bought stuff from Monoprice it was a smoking deal and I'm pretty certain none of the cables I bought ever failed me.

  • ‘Swamp Creature!’: Trump Gets Shouted Down as He Begs for Libertarian Nomination

    Jump

  • The anarchy symbol rebelliously displayed on a rear projection screen, the pride of the A/V department, in a ballroom of a Hamilton Suites lobby somewhere. My youth recoils in horror.

  • New 9/11 Evidence Points to Deep Saudi Complicity

    Jump

  • Hesitant, forlorn and very much hopefully misplaced resigned upvote.

    I want to dismiss your assertions out of hand as too pessimistic and cynical but…yeah, we let them win at least the battle if not the whole shebang.

    My hope stems from kids today generally being kinder, open minded and not “tolerant” but actually coexisting with nary a thought. Better people will make a better world if we give them the chance to before fucking up beyond repair.

  • Trump dealt double-whammy of losses: Hush-money judge remains on case, trial stays in Manhattan

    Jump

  • The problem is people on juries can (try) to disregard instructions. I served on one and was NOT the foreperson and yet was the only one to speak up when some insisted on raising hypothetical motives when the judge had specifically instructed us only to consider presented evidence.

    “No, you cannot guess as to what occurred” I had to repeatedly say.

    I worry that one or more jurors will rationalize instead of fulfill their sworn duty. I hope not but….

  • Microplastics found in every human testicle in study

    Jump

  • Right?!?

    ….also, left?

  • 10-year-old swept into storm drain to become an organ donor, dad says

    Jump

  • What an amazing gesture and selfless decision by a family living my worst nightmare. That is achingly beautiful.

  • Iranian President Raisi feared dead as helicopter wreckage found | Reuters

    Jump

  • In the USA. An old helo with questionable access to parts….perhaps lower odds. In bad weather, lower still.

  • Iran's president, foreign minister and others found dead at helicopter crash site, state media says

    Jump

  • This is the first time since joining Lemmy that I miss awards. This was funny as hell! Thanks for the chuckle.

  • U.S. governors urge Turks and Caicos to release Americans as Florida woman becomes 5th tourist arrested for ammo in luggage

    Jump

  • Difficult. To check your travel bags for ammo.

    How low do we set the bar before we blame the individuals?

    I’ve never discovered ammunition loose in a bag or pocket. It’s been used or put away safely. Period. Why? Because duh.

  • U.S. governors urge Turks and Caicos to release Americans as Florida woman becomes 5th tourist arrested for ammo in luggage

    Jump

  • Or just freaking empty it and only pack what you need. Its hardly difficult.

  • White House Worries Russia’s Momentum Is Changing Trajectory of Ukraine War

    Jump

  • Momentum quite literally provided by the GOP, Reagan would be so proud.

  • Ron DeSantis is planning to raise money for Donald Trump in Florida and Texas, AP sources say

    Jump

  • Is spineless turd that much of a career path in the GOP? Cruz, McConnell, DeSantis, Christie, Romney (for a time) and more bending the knee. Pathetic.

  • Mom’s Fatal Fall at Ohio State Graduation Was No Accident: Coroner

    Jump

  • I used to think that, it took talking to people that lost loved ones to suicide and learning more about it to feel far more empathy - imagine seeing the world without you, to picture your family happier with you gone. Utter despair where dying is the appealing option.

    Yes, **if ** and that's a massive if, this was a dramatic last act it may have been malicious or selfish….or an irrational, impulsive and ultimately tragic decision.

    I feel sorry for everyone involved. Its horrible.

  • Trump Calls for Less Courthouse Security, More MAGA Protests

    Jump

  • Imagine any other defendant in a criminal proceeding suggesting to reduce security in order for their supporters to disrupt proceedings.

    Jury tampering is illegal after all.

    At least, for everyone else it is.

  • Rebel is the real MVP

    Jump

  • When I feel pessimistic about the world it's kids like this that give me hope. Great story!

  • Trump Media tells shareholders how to block their DJT stock being loaned to short sellers

    Jump

  • But…but….but…the market will self regulate?

  • Argentina Monthly Inflation Slowed More Than Expected in March

    Jump

  • Only if inflation is the only metric of concern, but a stalled economy with low inflation and massive unemployment is not a healthy situation. Austerity does not tend to foster economic growth and I worry they've decided to focus solely on one of their problems. Hopefully it's actual improvement.

  • Pope Francis: ‘Today the ugliest danger is gender ideology’

    Jump

  • As asserted by a guy who chose a non-reproductive life of celibacy, hangs out with a bunch of fellas in dresses and bases his opinions on stories preceding the Dark Ages.

    So maybe let's not listen?

  • Missing Turkish miners ‘swallowed by cyanide-laced landslide’

    Jump

  • Landslide is plenty bad enough…but with a damn cyanide bonus? Horrific. Those poor miners. I hope they manage to find survivors.
