“Oh, so we can just steal ‘weird’ and turn it against them, like we did ‘fake news’ and ‘fascist’ and all the others, right?”
Followed by:
“Look at these weird liberals who want health care and don’t think of women as cattle!”
#winning, Donald and JD. Never stop never stopping.
The transitive property in action: Mini-soda = Minnesota = Oregon
Yes, as the saying goes, “Even a stuffed cluck tells the right time twice a day.”
When you don’t have any convictions of your own…
Weelllll…I’m pretty sure Trump has some convictions now that the jury has weighed in.
No reason, just that memes follow demographics of the space. Lemmy is probably full of people who were in their late teens-through-twenties in 2007, so to that group, it remains a funny nostalgic callback.
And I’ll just predict that in 15-20 years Skibidi toilet and all the GenZ/Alpha memes will dominate middle-age spaces.
It’s called Unreal PT. The last version I believe is 1.0.7, and it’s still hosted on the Internet Archive.
Musk repeated the DDOS claim when the Space finally began around 8:40PM ET. “As this massive attack illustrates, there’s a lot of opposition to people just hearing what President Trump has to say,” he said.
So not only is he fabricating the DDOS out of thin air, but he just assumes out of nowhere that it’s politically motivated by the “opposition” to silence Trump - when Trump is vomiting nonsense that blankets the media 24/7 and this would do absolutely nothing to prevent Trump from exposing himself to the unwilling public. Galaxy brain genius logic right there.
Yikes. The parasocial relationship people have with Trump is psychotic - this guy clearly felt like an attempt on Trump’s life by a random nutjob was equivalent to an attempt on his own life by whoever is arguing with him.
Oh, it’s by Agg23 - they also released a bunch of Analogue Pocket emulators, great developer.
Harris polling right now (and specifically, the trend, since the polling is on track to continue improving until the election) is our control period, before the money and right-wing propaganda hit.
I guess we’ll find out in November not just whether democracy in the US ends, but whether Citizen’s United is the cause of death.
My good faith response to your good faith question: because having a DRM-free copy on your own server or hard drive is the only way to be sure you will be able to play it tomorrow.
Streaming services are a complex collection of licensing deals that are by design temporary. You may not hear beforehand when your favorite artist’s label’s parent company’s conglomerate’s CEO decides to pull their content because they’re going to start their own streaming service, or another service gave them a lucrative exclusive deal.
And while you’re never going to have a hard time finding Taylor Swift, that one 70s esoteric album may become instantly impossible to find once it drops off a streamer.
In the end there are no promises with a streaming service. On the other hand, you put in a small amount of work to grab MP3s or FLACs, set up your own Plex server (or Emby, etc), and you’re good for pretty much forever.
Similarly, support artists by buying their direct merch, going to shows, and so on, but they are barely seeing any Spotify money. Between Spotify and the labels, they are cleaning the plate and artists are getting whatever crumbs fall off the table (unless you’re Taylor Swift or another global artist).
This is clearly fake based on some of the comedically worded bullets - is it that hard to tell?
It’s funny, though, and a well-done fake.
Today, the House Judiciary GOP’s official account on X called GARM being discontinued a “big win for the First Amendment” and a “big win for oversight.” X CEO Linda Yaccarino also applauded the news.
It’s just opposite day? We just say whatever is the opposite of what’s true?

Right? I’m rewatching the first season before starting the second, and it’s actually really solid. A little "palace-intruige"y the first few episodes, but it sets up characters, plots and conflicts really believably and efficiently.
Has a GOP-controlled congressional committee uncovered any actual evidence in the past 20 years or so?
I take notice of whenever they have a new hearing or investigative issue, and each one I can remember has always been “let’s go on a fishing expedition to find dirt or at least impugn the character of a political rival” followed a year later by a Friday-night quiet disbanding of the committee with no findings, or a report being issued that says nothing of importance whatsoever.
The beatings will continue until ad revenue improves.
I mean, we are living it so we all know how this happens. Wealthy conservative people own media, and that media convinces uneducated voters to believe the thing that allows wealthy people to make more money. Those voters vote for politicians who believe the same thing, elevated and propagandized by the same wealthy people.
But because climate change denial is demonstrably false, this isn’t just wealthy people having more representation. This is the level of representation that wealthy peoples’ fantasies get.
We’re pretty far gone, aren’t we?
I’m confused, isn’t this a better spot for the drain hole? When you sit facing the wall? So you have a shelf for your comic books and chocolate milk?
I just read the article and I don’t know her name.
