Holy shit Tapper wrote this book that is (oh so totally organically) driving the commentary right now?

Fucking Jake Tapper who was just famously neutral and unbiased toward all other candidates than Joe Biden during the 2020 primaries?

How rich that he of all people is cashing in now on the Biden blame train.

That’s what’s up

On Wikipedia, an article for a deceased person reads, “[The deceased] was,” while an article for a TV show that has ended reads, “The Office is”

Feels kinda related in some way

How are they supposed to know which tree?

*You’re

You’re boned

Do people here know who this Fat Electrician guy is? Because I’m vaguely familiar with him and his YouTube channel and my instinct is that the majority of us here on lemmy were rather the opposite of him at 15 (libertarian phase or some other antisocial ignorance) and now around 30+ years old the disposition is much more ‘the modern city is in so many ways a marvel of cooperation and achievement.’

From my encounters he is a ‘society bad, the end’ type and not at all a ‘capitalism bad’ type. I guess that is lumpen proletariat? Anyway I’d love to be proven wrong but I was already too red flagged and turned off to dig further into his content.

Sorry, I tried 12ft.io and archive.org but couldn’t find a non-paywalled link

What an absolute fucking champ-

While acknowledging his share of responsibility for the loss, Walz is returning to the national spotlight and didn’t rule out a 2028 presidential run, saying, “I’m not saying no.”

Both of those things are such music to my ears (although ofc we should all know that it was Harris’s brother-in-law Uber exec lawyer who muzzled Walz and deserves that blame that Walz is selflessly taking on here).

Sadly I’m not even sure the US will exist by 2028.

Dicking dicks.

Well, in Dave’s CEO’s defense, it was just Google Ads.

Just, you know, that thing that largely provides the income for a world top-ten company.

I’m just a simple country hyper-chicken but… That makes it sound like you are investing in that evil. Please say you are shorting that shit.

Holy shit that’s a great point!

IMAGINE GIVING A FUCK ABOUT $36K WHEN YOU MAKE NEARLY $1 MILLION / YR!!!

Think of it like this:

“This r**ard thinks the government uses PAPER [SQL]” - Elon Musk

It is literally that standard and common and obviously in use in the government.

(SQL is just a computer language for dealing with data and databases)

Awesome, thanks for sharing and making this effort! Bookmarked for later when I can listen to your work.

How do you feel about Audacity?

Lemmy on Voyager is flawless as fuck.

In fact I have been lately on Bluesky and spending much more time there these days, since people who I respect say “it’s an open standard” and “a true bulwark to the next Musk or whoever wants to buy it”, but I regularly find myself wondering, “what am I looking for here [on Bluesky]?”

The anonymity of reddit type platforms, of which Lemmy is the most future proof, is highly preferable. Bluesky (Twitter/Xitter, etc) feels lie a bunch of ‘identities’ wanting on some level to get the karma their post deserves plus the karma their identity ‘deserves’

Ah yes, no doubt you are referring to the fact that on this day in 2024, Princess Birgitta of Sweden died? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/December_4

Just about peak meme-ification tight there 👏

Not to mention Pepe the frog or whatever alt right thing that is/was
