  • i dont think that comment is in reference to leftists turning on an antigun stance but right wing media turning on their hardline 2nd amendment stance to vilify them for it

  • Songs that feel like winter to you?

    Jump

  • i have made a couple of short playlists in the past with a snow or winter theme, including one more nature themed and one with songs that remind me of snowy days in new york city. i might not agree with them all anymore, but i got that vibe at some point, so heres some that i remember:

    bark psychosis - blue

    isotope 217 - la jetée

    joshua redman - as this moment slips away

    brokeback - names winston, friends call me james

    sam prekop - dot eye

    josé james - the dreamer

    wire - the 15th

    dabrye - the lish

    märz - bars 1, 2, 3, 4

    sensorama - where the rabbit sleeps

    nobukazu takemura - icefall

    most of yesterday was dramatic, today is ok by múm, but in particular 'im 9 today'

  • Why do seemingly all politicians (and no one else) do that hand gesture when they talk, the one where it looks like they're holding an invisible fishing rod?

    Jump

  • from what i remember, they are coached to do it because pointing is seen as too aggressive but not making any hand gestures is too robotic. so its a way to make a non-aggressive emphatic hand gesture.

  • my guy is called andrew, at first i think he just owed a dentist some money but starting in march i was getting 18 calls a day so i dont know what he did

  • Who is here?

    Jump

  • oh boy thats me. especially now that i have someone in my social circle who im pretty sure has an unkind opinion about me, i have all my social behaviors under a microscope (my own that is)

  • If you live in Seattle, PLEASE go to Pike Place Market and buy Apples 🍏

    Jump

  • its not really a drive through market, but there are two sections of the market which are divided by a short street about 180 meters in length. you would still have to get out of your car to shop at any of the shops/stalls. anybody driving their cars there previously would have to contend with a ton of pedestrian traffic, and there is minimal parking there anyway so i dont know why anyone non-service or vendor related would willingly use that street to access the market.

  • Do you leverage randomness positively towards some constructive end?

  • there is nothing to feel excited or hopeful about from american progressives at the moment, so it is all cope posting. i am more disheartened by posts like the one that showed up the other day eith a link to a supposed story about a cybertruck owner who complained that he got laughed at by children. it is not news, it is not worthwhile, it has not enriched the lives of anyone who read it. it is an outlet to expend political energy for those who dont know what else to do. politics are unavoidable, and complaining about politics is natural and can be cathartic, but at this level it is drain that is part of a trumps political strategy.

  • a lot of people here migrated from reddit for political reasons, so a lot of the communities have been set up by those who tend to view things in a political way. it also seems that the general climate in the united states, where a large amount of the english language content is made, views nearly everything as political, either caused or reinforced by american politics dominating most forms of media.

    it also cant be discounted that there are certain users whose sole motivation for posting in any community is either bait or propaganda, which can spoil any community that does not have very active moderation or rules prohibiting political posts or comments.

  • Anyone else hating Shorts (the videos, not the pants or financial instruments)?

    Jump

  • i have had this conversation with my wife before when she used to show me one specific person who had very quick cuts of about a second each. i hated it so much, i would feel anxious and it would take me a while to calm down. and in that case there was no voiceover to keep track of.

  • What are some old freeware PC games you've kept playing over the years?

    Jump

  • i also really fell into this game as a kid, it was included on a disc of free games for pc that my dad got at some point in the 90s. it was the first game i personally played with any sort of exploration mechanic, and it really hooked me. cool to see a couple of other people on lemmy have fond memories about it as well!

  • Does anyone know someone in Congress Chuck can talk to?

  • Is there any non-zero possibility Musk was not doing a Hitler Salute?

    Jump

  • the scariest implication of this whole business is the most favorable interpretation of the nonplussed reaction of the majority is that they are in such denial that a nazi government could be possible again in a first world country that they cant see it for what it is. that is to say, the exact things the people who lived through it had been vigilant to remind us about ever since.

    i definitely agree that it empowers legitimate nazis, which i suppose could be his way of cultivating a voter base which no other candidate would openly support but would vote for whoever he throws his money behind as trump will no longer be a valid candidate. a best case scenario here would be that this kind of attention is too much even for trump to tolerate and will cut ties with him. i feel that would be likely to happen regardless, as they are two narcissists of the highest order, but it would be better if it happens sooner.

  • Is there any non-zero possibility Musk was not doing a Hitler Salute?

    Jump

  • i think he allowed himself to do it as part of his edgelord persona, trying to trigger people on purpose. the motion is intentional as his arm shoots straight out to the side as opposed to being directed to the center of the crowd or sweeping across the crowd as if to spread his "heart" as it were.

    the autism defense is one that i think is being used to try to checkmate the left on the subject, as they are the most offended by the gesture but also more likely to be sensitive to neurodivergent persons and potentially less likely to criticize their actions.

    in short, i believe he intended the gesture as interpreted, just not as a genuine expression of his personal beliefs. that being said, i think hes a white supremacist fascist, but i dont think he thinks hes a white supremacist fascist.

  • damn, hearing it from someone else hits different. sometimes i yearn for the closeness of intimate friendships but the anxiety at the vulnerability of expressing a genuinely held opinion wont let me do anything else
