  • Top Trump donor 'stunned' after he lashed out at her in a series of 'angry texts'

    Jump

  • Also, when someone shows you who they truly are, believe them the first time. I've become a person for whom respect is not earned, it is only ever lost. Everyone I know and meet, I try to respect the same as I would any other person... but, once you've lost that respect, I find it truly hard to give the benefit of the doubt and restore that faith.

  • PACs are not allowed to coordinate with candidates or their campaigns, which is how they're allowed to raise unlimited amounts of money.

    If anyone doesn't get that stuff like this is always said with a nod and a wink... they don't understand how truly broken our campaign finance system is in reality. The Citizens United case is blinding proof that this Supreme Court has been in the bag for conservatives and reactionaries for decades. Project 2025 is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the wealthy, empowered by Reagan era Neoliberalism, attempting a fascist takeover of the United States. It's the Business Plot (or "Wall Street Putsch") of 1933, but in super slow motion.

  • Why do we put up with this crap?

    Jump

  • I mean, in the 1950's, the planes with all the fancy food and service were basically full first class flights... to return to that weed have to have single class/first class flights and the prices to match.

  • CrowdStrike effectively bricked windows, Mac and Linux today.

  • Same where I'm at. 😞

  • Virginia is shrinking!

  • They know what they did.

  • Clarence Thomas takes aim at a new target: Eliminating OSHA

  • One would think that that an elderly judge would appreciate hand rail regulations.

  • US says Russia’s advance on Kharkiv is ‘all but over’

    Jump

  • Yeah, more clean but not completely... this is not to mention the amount of damage caused by the bomb. Striking Kiev or another city would effectively decimate Ukraine's infrastructure and economy for decades. If the goal of the war is to subjugate, you don't want to be in the hook for all those repairs. A nuke on any of Ukraine's cities would make that dam break last year look like nothing.

  • L.A. County wants to cap rent hikes at 3%. Landlords say that would push them to sell

    Jump

  • Nobody forced them to make risky business decisions.

    Exactly... you want to make a nearly risk free investment? Try a long term bank deposit or invest in government bonds.

  • US says Russia’s advance on Kharkiv is ‘all but over’

    Jump

  • If Russia were to strike Ukraine with a nuclear bomb, first and foremost that puts every nation on a knife's edge globally... someone else with an itchy trigger finger could launch against Russia in the confusing hours afterwards. Next up, the PRC and India would likely abandoned Russia as waves of condemnation would flood the global media. Finally, the whole goal of the war is to take Ukraine, not to make it uninhabitable... why nuke what you want to own?

  • US says Russia’s advance on Kharkiv is ‘all but over’

    Jump

  • Unlikely. There's kind of only two hard-and-fast rules for nuclear war:

    • Never strike first.
    • Never strike a non-nuclear enemy.

  • Meet my new puppy: Ass!

  • Awe... little Burrito. So cute.

  • What do you wear for work?

    Jump

  • Jeans, a t-shirt, unbuttoned long sleeve flannel, and crew shoes. I keep a hoodie in my desk just in case.

    I work at a TV station, it's 68°F (20°C) in here all year round.

  • OpenAI Just Gave Away the Entire Game

    Jump

  • Nah, they're probably planning to do what Amazon did with their "Just Walk Out" stores... force children into mines and just claim it's actually AI. As NFT's, Cryptocurrency, and so many other hype tech fads have taught us: marketing is cheaper than development.

  • Zombie 2nd mortgages are coming to life, threatening thousands of Americans' homes

    Jump

  • You want a nearly risk free investment, I suggest a high interest bank deposit. No one "deserves" a return on mass mortgage speculation.

    US Lemmys what could Biden do in the next 6 months to EARN your vote? (other than just not being Trump)

    Jump

  • He's already got my vote. He's by zero means perfect, but I live in a swing state and cannot throw out "meh it's terrible, but good enough considering" because it's not perfect.

    Here's some things he could do to make "meh, it's terrible but" into just "good":

    • Put any kind of pressure on Israel.
    • Expand the Supreme Court.
    • Executive order giving the NLRB Sectorial Bargaining at the Federal Level.
    • Force the FCC to regulate data collection.
    • Go back in time and allow the railroad workers to strike and threaten nationalization if the hedge funds that own the railroads don't play ball.

  • Punk rock band Trophy Eyes fan left paralyzed after singer jumped on her at concert

  • Grounds Keeper Willy voice * They're mortal enemies, like punk rock fans and k-pop fans, or punk rock fans and rap fans, or punk rock fans and punk rock fans... DAMN PUNK ROCK FANS, RUINING THE PUNK ROCK FANDOM!!!

  • Outrage after ex-Trump aide claims he gave unhoused people fake money

    Jump

  • Also, like as a joke, it's just lazy. There are better and funnier ways to mock Trump and his allies. Going "her dur gayz" is hack.

  • what lemmy web app do you use and why?

    Jump

  • I'm having the same issue with message/reply but otherwise it's a great app.

  • What did you get told as a child that you realised was a lie as you got older?

    Jump

  • I mean, it's a bunch of Linux people and communists... dunno what you were expecting.
