Actual and deliberate HIPAA violations meant to cause harm, mind you, not what a brainless antivaxxer thinks is a HIPAA violation.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Clive Cussler lied to me!

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Speaking of the relationship between language and thought patterns, chartreuse is clearly a red color.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Eh.

That, too, is the history of the monuments.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

See: Lysenkoism

Though being aware of the biases involved in the literature is always important

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Well, I can't imagine why a prominent and professional black man who publicly supported the Covid precautions and vaccines would have been the target of a smear campaign.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Funny how the silent majority always agrees with the current speaker

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I do not know who this ratchet game is supposed to even appeal to anymore. If there's an "undecided" voter left they're in a coma. If you want corporate cash, you sure as hell don't want to turn off the wage slave spigot.

I can only assume the Democratic leadership is equally split between being people in complete denial that think everyone's still a bunch of neoliberals and neocons fighting to be first at the 80's style cocaine buffet, and the people who are terrified by the reality of the cost of losing this election.

Either way, this "immigration crisis" is fake. A functional America would not be bothered in the slightest by it, but a functioning America by my definition would also acknowledge it has been largely caused by our own actions, and that is not an "immigration" issue but a refugee issue.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

This is how neocons get voted out for Trumpers

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Lol

Nah

What they do have is the world's most unsecret nuclear stockpile. If Israel wants to have peace, they can acknowledge Palestinian sovereignity and then close their new borders.

They aren't under threat from the neighboring states, much less some rebels with AKs.

But they don't want that. They want to do a genocide.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

They are the state. Literally.

What you mean is don't punish innocent people already struggling.

Whom neither they, nor their jackbooted enforcers in the police, are, and will not feel or care.

It's wild that this list of obvious control mechanisms to empower the clergy ends with

"But seriously, don't cook a goat in its mother's milk. That's just fucked up and cruel."

I have to assume it was some weirdly specific ritual meal they were banning.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Holy shit

You need to spay your aunt

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I've seen the source, it's all true. That's why they eventually formed a poly triangle with Archie, and occasionally, The Predator.

They know what is coming, though you'll note the writers challenge the specific crediting.

Of course, they also think that "hard times create strong men" bullshit is from 2016 so

Idk

Point is the Saudi royals are fully aware that, if nothing else, the wells will eventually run dry so everyone slowing the green transition is short sighted regardless.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Bro didn't hear about the bonesaws

You want to go after those kings, do it with an army, not lawyers.

Like, bro, they're literally sovereigns! They can ignore lawsuits!

DragonTypeWyvern ,

That their royalty are cowards doesn't stop them from being a sovereign country. Just what, exactly, do you think a lawyer can accomplish? The UN doesn't announce a global embargo on the lifeblood of modern nations because someone points out they violated a substatute.

"Moderation tools are nonexistent on here. It also eats up storage like crazy [...] The software is downright frustrating to work with" - Can any other instance admins relate to this?

After a year online the free speech-focused instance 'Burggit' is shutting down. Among other motivations, the admins point to grievances with the Lemmy software as one of the main reasons for shutting down the instance. In a first post asking about migrating to Sharkey, one of the admins states:...

DragonTypeWyvern ,

What'd they do?

DragonTypeWyvern ,

🥾👅

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I don't mind supporting countries that actually need it but even if the IDF was completely ethical, and they're not, they still wouldn't need a single bullet of aid.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

A primer for those interested:

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Fascists make the world their enemy and then claim everyone is out to get them.

It's actually a pretty core aspect of the 40k universe btw, just throwing that out there because no one seems to bring it up.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

In theory a modern artist, writer, musician, etc could become a billionaire from direct to customer sales, but I'll believe it when it happens.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Nah. Tons of merchandising, films, publishing etc.

Those Quidditch brooms and plastic wands don't assemble themselves in a sweatshop.

Think more like if some self hosted webnovel had the same success somehow, or if she'd been as involved with checking the conditions of the merchandise empire as thoroughly as she was apparently involved in making sure the child actors were treated well. Not particularly likely, but hypothetically.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Direct to customer meaning they sell direct to a customer. Presumably through digital copies and owning a server rack.

You can certainly argue that even that kind of hypothetical billionaire shouldn't exist, and you'd be right.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I hear there's a market for that there

Kamala Harris: Hamas Committed Horrific Acts of Sexual Violence on Oct. 7. We Will Not Be Silent ( www.haaretz.com )

U.S. Vice President's remarks come amid allegations from Israel's critics that claims of sexual and gender-based violence were either fabricated or exaggerated in order to provide justification for its military response in Gaza...

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I don't think it's fair to define her actions by her blackness, but, at the same time, the Dems very clearly want this bitch for 2028 (or earlier...) no matter what anyone says.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Yeah that dude who said he has narcissism so it's ableism to ban him or something?

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I honestly can't figure out if Vegan is trolling or a true believer

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Most people seem to be looking for positive vibes for the community in here

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I'm not sure asking someone to dive through a power user's comment log is entirely reasonable, but this is also news to me.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

For real, this shit's weak, they're the American Fascist Party.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Yeah, particularly because he's clearly doing it to try and prey on 20 somethings but you've fed us on PREMIUM corruption.

This amateur hour shit doesn't cut it anymore, we NEED our FIX

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I don't know how many times you need to see people abuse their power before you stop giving parasites the benefit of the doubt.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Ah, a group of which is known as an infection.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

And their overseers

DragonTypeWyvern ,

❤️

DragonTypeWyvern ,

He's a slippery one

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Bro, you literally called them separatists lol

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Why would it need to be more than one?

And it's 12, counting the Vatican.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

The conflict between ACAB and All Vigilantes Are Also Bastards has always been my primary concern with anarchism tbh.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Who vigilantes the vigilante vigilantes? It seems like in the end you really just need some form of professional rule thug that just has actual public accountability.

North Carolina Supreme Court Secretly Squashed Discipline of Two GOP Judges Who Admitted to Violating Judicial Code ( www.propublica.org )

Last fall, out of public view, the North Carolina Supreme Court squashed disciplinary action against two Republican judges who had admitted that they had violated the state’s judicial code of conduct, according to three sources with direct knowledge of the decisions....

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Intake bias

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Kind of proves his attorney was inadequate though

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Helicopters are famously safe to fly and operate with random non functional bits attached.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Fun History Fact:

Between 1967 and 1974 a Greek military junta overthrew the government because they didn't like the election results.

20% of the population still approves of it.
19% don't have a strong opinion on a fascist takeover of democracy and the suspension of human rights in Greece.

30% of the population has nostalgia for the period.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Yeah, I don't understand it. I went as a kid in a literal back brace and wheel chair, skipped most of the lines, and I still thought Universal was better.

Branding just ruins some people's brains.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I don't even remember. I do remember it being hot as hell, but Florida.
