It’s a mystery. Who can possibly help us uncover the secrets of this social phenomena?

Oh wait, relative to previous generations, they’ve got no fucking money and it costs about five times what it used to.

He is still under investigation… He had to give evidence again a few months ago

Believe it or not, Mark Kennedy is my brother in law.

He’s a bit full of himself, and it’s weird when this comes up in the news cycle.

He wrote a book about his experiences, but it wasn’t taken up with the publisher because he essentially didn’t express regret.

I think that’s less about Trumpism i’m more about the labour party failing to differentiate themselves from the conservatives

Will there, though? A group of people who actively ignore court orders and the constitution (when it suits them) are really, really unlikely to relinquish power.

I think this one was badly cropped. From memory the next line is “ and might I add, those are my sunglasses you are wearing”

I don’t think he gives a shit

Well, at least you know the fediverse is being taken seriously. Fucking Marketing have found us

Nice response!

I think that’s the thing though… You need to invest in a really good quality electric cooker to get something decent… Whereas any old?Cheap gas appliance will get the job done.

Plus every electric hob I’ve ever used has got bullshit touch sensitive buttons that don’t like wet fingers.

Yes, a little bit… Burning any kind of fuel in your home is going to produce carcinogens.

But it’s really nothing to get too excited about, and cooking on electric is bullshit

So does much of Europe. As oligarchs hoard wealth and the mob are increasingly hungry, poor and angry, the right wing will leverage dissatisfaction and come to power on the wings of lies.

It was ever thus, right back through recorded history. This is how Rome fell. This is how America will fall. Europe will hold another decade, I think. By then we may well be fighting.

I’m just sitting here in Europe munching popcorn right now.

Hopefully my kids wont die in Greenland fighting the American Nazi aggression but it’s a looming possibility, for sure.

I moved here and took a break from Reddit for a year after the whole API thing.

Recently been dipping my toe back in the water, lurking only.

It is noticeable that a lot of posts are obviously bot accounts trying to spur debate on contentious topics. And in general, it’s a sad echo of the community it used to be.

On the other hand, there are some communities there that are still pretty active and interesting just based on the sheer volume of people that still use Reddit. So it still has a place in my life… Kinda.

Only expect to get worse over time, it’s like a slow decline of a friendship

So… it’s definitely their fault somehow and not…. I don’t know… enshitification?

I remember going into cafés and things when I was a young man about 14 years old… You wouldn’t be able to see across a small room for the sheer fog bank of cigarette smoke.

We didn’t think anything of it

If everything is more expensive then we buy less shit. I mean…. Who expected anything different?

It won’t matter.

Every subversive secret organisation that I belong to issues membership cards, and I keep all of them in my wallet, obviously.

Fear not, this will only be available to the super rich.

However, you will be able to feed your children by selling your organs, so we’ve got that going for us.
