It’s an interesting article, but I have the same concerns about this strange “Stop Population Decline” organization. Who is funding this?

It looks like something from the PS1

I unironically shout “Let’s go, Brandon! Let’s fucking go!” whenever I encounter it in the wild. Take it back!

He wants to play the martyr, thinking it will help his candidacy. It helps him in the primary, as it pumps his narrow base up, but how many people can be undecided about Trump at this point? I’m hopeful this circus will turn off anyone not wearing a red cap already.

Currently reading “The Last Watch” because I wanted some fun sci-fi, but the liberties the author is taking on physics and the universe makes it very hard to suspend my disbelief.

Looking at starting a re-read of “All Systems Red” in anticipation of the new Murderbot book coming out. I can’t recommend this series enough

I love this. I tuned in to a little Sean Hannity on the radio on my drive home Friday and heard him rail against the selection of Weiss multiple times, while throwing out vague bullet points about why he’s unacceptable.

My first reaction was that they’re laying the groundwork for when this investigation comes up with nothing, or some really boring crimes (like firearms charges? The Republicans are about gun control now?) and they have to lay the blame on someone so the conspiracy machine can keep pumping out outrage.

Knowing this is a guy they wanted for the job until he started doing it makes it even more delicious, but as we know when Republican’s beliefs come up against reality it’s the reality that gives, so they’ll have no problem ignoring that this was even ever a thing.

Have you ever heard a large firecracker pop? It’s very similar.

The best part of Lemmy is the low userbase in comparison means it’s easier to be original and not try and say the same thing a hundred times.

The graph charting donations received vs when he was indicted and arraigned was one of the more interesting parts of the article to me. I knew that to his supporters the legal news was proof of the deep state and nothing would turn them off of him, but I didn’t realize what good press all the news about it would be. I assume the other bumps in the chart are other, smaller news items about him.

16 years there. Once Boost stopped working I got off the site and migrated here. I’ve read threads that come up in Google searches, and looked at some specialty subs since, but nothing longer than 5 minutes every few days.

I’m not a big fan of too much tech in cars, I hate touchscreen climate controls, and I still drive a manual transmission; but using Android auto with maps and Spotify has been amazing. And the wireless mostly works most of the time.

Exactly, it’s giving me big nostalgia flashbacks to the pre-reddit days. I was on SU so much for years, used the social communities, and was pretty excited to discover reddit. I can’t believe it’s been 20 years, ouch

Thank you for making explicit something I was wondering about. I noticed the .ml instances have a pro-authoritarian bias and couldn’t figure out what that stood for.

One of the primary reasons for the high price was that the accident affected a panel that reaches from the back of the vehicle all the way to the front roof pillars of the truck and fixing the panel required service workers to remove the ceiling and front windshield, the Times said.

What a terrible design
