I guess we're just creating more Boomers now. Boomers 2: Illiterate Boogaloo

The classic sloppy reporting tactic of "dozens". Somewhere between 1.5 and 33.3 dozen I guess?

Some of these articles don't seem to get it. Another Trump term potentially removes all rights for many of us. Trans people won't have to worry about healthcare, bigotry, bathrooms, or anything else that they're facing. They will have to hide who they are or risk being rounded up or killed. It will be open season on women, liberals, feminists, atheists, satanists, muslims, people with dark skin or foreign sounding names. Rights don't matter in a dictatorship. There's only fighting or submitting.

Tell me more about these tittybux...

Too fucking late. I've already installed Bluefin on two machines and Bazzite on my gaming machine. I'm not going back.

Great reference. Also, you can do gifs in Lemmy. Not sure if everyone knows that or not.

We only want the weed. The border thing is rednecks needing to feel closer to one another. Close enough to caress their fellow man. To the point where the only borders between them are when you sometimes get wrapped up in the sheets and lose skin contact.

Now that DuckDuckGo is out. Give me your search prompts and I'll answer them as best I can. That includes images (based on what I have saved on my PC). So what is it you wish to know or see?

Edit: Due to popular demand FatTony Search servers are down for the time being. but has gone open source just in time (Yes that's how it works 😡) . You may now get responses from other users. Servers will be back up some time later.

It's something Shorts seem to do. I think all Youtube shorts do that as far as I'm aware. I avoid them as much as I possibly can.

Retire? Is that some kind of a car thing?

Considering how they've exchanged a family dynamic for a corrupt corporate one, they probably just communicate in depositions.

My Unraid NAS and media server is called Madmartigan. The Proxmox server running Home Assistant, second Pihole instance and my bookmark manager and such is called Willow. My raspberry pi that I use for testing and such is called Brownie.

It's a tough game out there. Many of the problems are so severe and harmful that you can't really joke about them. Biden is technically the power in the room but he's so old that it's close to punching down to joke about him. Seemingly, every single political body has been captured by fascists and is riding roughshod over Poe's Law. Using satire is just giving them new ideas.

Informally, I believe this has been resolved by having the state attorney general sign off on most legislation as to its constitutionality. In my state, the attorney general is a shitheel. But, he has called out anti-gay legislation as blatantly unconstitutional and a waste of time and money. The lawmakers want headlines and ALEC money. They don't give two shits about it being lawful or costly or harmful.

If I insinuated they could block it, that wasn't my intention. It is basically a check without teeth. They can make a stink about it and a recommendation to the governor before signing but they have no legislative power.

This is correct. We waste a solid 1/3 of the food we produce and import. And we're nowhere close to maxing out our food production. We just prevent people from having access to it.

Same. I took some of the money I was paying for streaming services and paid for usenet and vip service opensubtitles. Black Friday hit and I got more usenet services which is great to have.

I like having the content but I was fine paying for legitimate services until they started trying to fuck me over.

who can preform fellatio on Trump's ghost the best.

I'm betting it's Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I think that lazy eye lets her see to the spirit dimension.

"it was worth this

Which is how he got here to begin with.

gdog05 ,

That's my bet. He's a toady but he seems like he might be capable of feeling some shame. One of the very few Republicans that I think that about. There are no scandals capable of affecting most of the party.

Why are people so antsy to see others in person?

I WFH, every year one of the goals that the rest of the team decides is that it's "so great" to see each other in person. The past few years haven't worked out but one did. I spent hours in a couple of airports, the huge expense for the company, I spent days away from my family, and for what? So you could look me in my same face...

How you felt, going bonkers, is roughly how many introverts feel being around people. So, the three years that introverts felt good in the history of... forever, many of us would like to keep that. I just ask that extroverts respect how shitty the workforce is especially for introverts and maybe try to get their social needs met in their personal life and not demand that work time also fit only their needs. At the expense of others.

it will not go well for him

That may well be, but nothing is really going badly for him, either. At least, not badly enough to make a difference to those of us who are increasingly facing down a hostile, broken country and a civil war because of him.

Trump is disqualified from Illinois ballot, judge rules ( www.reuters.com )

An Illinois state judge on Wednesday barred Donald Trump from appearing on the Illinois' Republican presidential primary ballot because of his role in the attack at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, but she delayed her ruling from taking effect in light of an expected appeal by the former U.S president.

Yeah I'm having a very hard time feeling any comfort with that concept strongly looming.

It's weird how interesting that actually was. I knew you could order bowling balls with different cores but had no idea it would be anything more than an oblong sphere.

Trump threatens to 'blackmail' Biden if he doesn't make charges go away ( www.rawstory.com )

Former President Donald Trump ramped up his threats to prosecute President Joe Biden if he wins another term in the White House.An appeals court rejected Trump's claims of immunity in the federal election subversion case in the District of Columbia, although he intends to press the same argument in ...

While nicely frugal, I just buy a small shaker of popcorn salt for $2. A shaker lasts roughly one human lifetime if not accidentally spilled all over the counter.

DOJ: Ex-IRS employee who leaked Trump's tax returns intentionally got job to disclose records ( www.usatoday.com )

A former Internal Revenue Service contractor, who leaked tax information about Donald Trump and other wealthy individuals to news organizations, got his job to intentionally to spread the confidential records, according to Justice Department prosecutors....

It doesn't sound to me like he thought he was above the law. He seemed to know the consequences. He just didn't think that Trump should be above the law. Or, at the very least, above presidential decorum.

Because we're the Avengers not the Prevengers.

Didn't Saul Goodman admit to this in court?

gdog05 ,

Just like if you're under 35 or not a natural born citizen. He's ineligible. And that's because we don't want 6 year olds, Russian operatives who became a citizen six months ago or traitors who are both Russian operatives and act like 6 year olds.

Gen Z workers are much less pliable than Gen X and even Millennials. They are way more apt to stand by workers rights than cowtow. It's not qualifications, it's lack of obedience that managers don't like.

You know. Like a king. The framers were pretty big on that kind of thing.

gdog05 , (edited )

I don't think the framers did. A few at least were leery of a transition of power happening at all. Some figured that a revolution would be necessary frequently. But some members of Congress and some prominent figures at the time were asking Washington to stay. I don't know if anyone officially wanted him to stay until he died but they wanted longer. I assume they didn't have much faith in democracy working well enough.
