Hi I'm Tim.

I'm AuDHD - officially diagnosed ADHD and self-diagnosed (for now) with ASD. I also suffer from a great deal of Imposter Syndrome.

  • Meteorologist Who Called Out Musk’s ‘Nazi’ Salute Gets Shown the Door

    Jump

  • They should know that you can only infringe the "conservative" freedom of expression by moderating hate speech/ideas/beliefs, or by calling a Nazi a Nazi. Anyone Left of Nazi in the US has a narrowing window of "freedom of expression".

    Because as we all know, the founders were granting Freedom of Speech to Fascist, NOT ANTIFA, just like Jesus wanted. /s

  • Masculinity

    Jump

  • He's saying we need toxic masculinity in the work place because misogynists being punished have had their feelings hurt. He just wants a "boys will be boys" toxic work culture to fuel his lack of self worth and insecurity.

  • Elon Musk's salute falls flat: Why far-right trolling isn't working this time around

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's never been as a troll, but as a sign of solidarity and beacon for others. Continuing to treat this like a trolling is continuing to give cover for Nazi/fascist behavior happening more and more in the light of day.

  • KKK distributes flyers in Kentucky telling immigrants to ‘leave now’

    Jump

  • Yep, same assholes that complain the "burger flippers" want more than minimum wage, but also want their stuff 30 secs after they place their order and to be treated like royalty.

    It's going to blow their minds that the price of food is going to go up because nobody wants to work in horrific conditions for less money than these bigots would ever dream of.

    And for Native Americans, I wonder how many of these dumbasses make "reservation runs" for cheap cigs/gas that will vanish if they force them elsewhere.

  • Trump pardons Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road drug marketplace

    Jump

  • His part is signing a piece of paper with a Sharpie that one of his handlers puts in front of him. That phone call had to be horrible, Trump trying to explain to a mom he is setting her son that he knows nothing about, free because he once said he would to a large group of people he wants to grift.

    Because 0% he knows the guy's name, who he was, or why he was in prison.

    Edit - autocorrect =(

  • I'm sure this 100% about Snoop's crypto interests with Captain "money laundering" Trump about to put someone in charge of picking what the whole crypto scene looks like.

    Snoop Dogg has been active in the non-fungible token (NFT) space, mostly in 2021 when he purchased a handful of NFTs. Snoop Dogg spent 4,185.5 Ethereum (ETH) tokens in 2021 on five NFTs:

    • "Right-click and Save As Guy" for 1,600 ETH in December 2021
    • "Some Asshole" for 1,300 ETH in September 2021
    • "CryptoPunk #3831" for 850 ETH in July 2021
    • "Destiny" for 225 ETH in October 2021
    • "Fidenza #351" for 210.5 ETH in September 2021

    Snoop Dogg likely spent around $15 million to acquire the NFTs. The collection is currently worth between $5 million and $10 million.

    Snoop Dogg created his own NFT project in 2022. Called "Snoop's Stash Box," the project sold around 9,000 NFTs for $5,000 each, allowing the rapper to bring in $45 million in less than a week.

  • Trump has tapped an unprecedented 13 billionaires for his administration. Here's who they are

    Jump

  • Yep, all getting together to form a large "can't take it with you" org to give it all away before they are gone.

  • One of the board members has been posting very pro-Trump nonsense.

  • 'They go hard': Trump and Vance release official portraits

    Jump

  • Vance looks like he's been a bender for weeks, and Trump's hair looks like it's trying to perform magic so you "can't see" how thin his hair has gotten.

  • Meta’s pivot to the right sparks boycotts and a user exodus

    Jump

  • Meta/Zuck have been far right for years, they are just wearing their hoods now because Trump is looking to the big tech companies to be his State Media.

  • California fires live: 6m people under critical fire threat as dangerous winds expected; governor says conditioning aid ‘un-American’

    Jump

  • Is there any actual evidence that CA has had aid going to places it wasn't allocated (aka someone pocketing it), or is this just continuing to push right wing talking points? What are the chances that the real estate companies that wanted to buy up all of this "discount real estate", and perhaps large financial companies funding them, just might be in the ear of Rights mouth pieces?

    And audit afterwards should certainly be conducted as they should for all aid responses involving emergency funds, but we shouldn't be withholding aid based on it. If something is found during the audit is when any issues should be addressed, not during a disaster. This is just Trump and his minions trying to make CA bend the knee, just like he did with NC during the hurricane/tornadoes spreading fake FEMA info.

  • Moderation Policy Change - Respectful Dissent

    Jump

  • You could claim that mine is in bad faith yes, but to do so would be in bad faith. And pretending you can have any meaningful discussion around the topic of "flat earth" in a forum format such as Lemmy is naive. If these people can stick their head in the sand and not listen to indisputable science, Lemmy is not the format to try and convert them. And to use such an argument as the basis for new "rules" who's sole purpose appears to be so that they can be wielded against a few mods in a community (or communities) that apparently people think are being moderated to harshly seems like a bad way to go about it all. Either replace the mods, or someone move the community. Don't make these vague policy changes to try and "catch" them into changing their viewpoint when this whole dog-and-pony show is supposedly about censorship.

    And stop trying to conflate real topics with wild conspiracy theories, unless of course the goal is to drag the value of real discussion as a whole down, because a "policy" like this using bad faith language and only backed by this censorship boogeyman talk does nothing to further discussion anywhere.

  • Moderation Policy Change - Respectful Dissent

    Jump

  • The two examples given, "marijuana" and "flat earth" are two completely different topics, and should be handled IMHO in two completely separate ways. Marijuana you could have a discussion/debate about because it's a real thing and very little real medical research has been done on it. On the other hand allowing bad faith discussion/debate about "flat earth" is pointless and a waste of time and energy for anyone with critical thinking. Those types of comments should just be shutdown as you can't argue a bad faith topic and leaving it around only reinforces these bad faith view points creating an eventual decline in a community.

    Bowing to those that use bad faith arguments as a way to "prove" this fake sense of censorship should not be tolerated, and deserve to be called out and removed. Removing posts in bad faith is not censorship, and claiming it is, makes you a bad faith actor.

  • Moderation Policy Change - Respectful Dissent

    Jump

  • So they are going the Facebook route of you need to allow untruth to prevent this fake sense of censorship. This is just a rule in bad faith that diminishes real debate/discussion. I will not be tolerating lies in bad faith to appease someones fake sense of a censorship boogyman.

  • US selling 69K seized bitcoins could mess with Trump plans for crypto reserve

    Jump

  • It's almost certainly like Musk having Tesla buying up crypto, that almost certainly isn't going to be used to do shady things.

    ..though Tesla continues to hold around 10,000 bitcoin worth around $1 billion on its balance sheet.

    Earlier this year, Trump floated the idea he could use bitcoin to "pay off our $35 trillion—hand them a little crypto check, right? We'll hand them a little bitcoin and wipe out our $35 trillion," he said.

    In July, Trump promised to create a "strategic national bitcoin reserve" and predicted bitcoin could eclipse gold's $16 trillion market capitalization during an appearance at the Bitcoin 2024 conference.

    Earlier this month, Trump confirmed he plans to create a U.S. bitcoin reserve.
