Try mentioning this to Tailor Swift fans and you’ll get immediately crucified. We should normalize the idea that THERE ARE NO ETHICAL BILLIONAIRES. Period.

While I agree with your sentiment, I don’t think she’s the place to start bitching. She’s one of the “better” ones in that she’s not out here actively hunting the poor on an island somewhere. You start with folks like Musk, Bezos, and Murdoch, and by shining a light on the billionaires that are stealing the wealth and resources of entire countries but staying out of the limelight by keeping their fucking mouths shut. Then we start moving towards Swift. Otherwise the message will just get drowned out by fans.

it’s late December 1938

Lise Meitner – the forgotten woman of nuclear physics who deserved a Nobel Prize

What a lady, what a night.

Gamer uncle here. Depending on my mood I’m either a wise and thoughtful teacher helping the younger generation learn the ins and outs of games (some of which they shouldn’t play, but I’m also firework uncle so I’m not always safe), or I’m “I will knock you off Rainbow Road as I lap you” uncle. I’m also older brother and treated my younger siblings exactly the same way 30 years ago.

When we all get together the kids are on their own because the adults are too busy playing four player couch games. Their gamer grandpa still plays battle for wesnoth with me periodically, but otherwise he plays a bass fishing game.

Sauce please.

“The economy was great under trump! It’s definitely not because of Obama and his policies. It started being garbage months before Biden took office because everyone knew Biden would make it bad.”

No, no, I read two sentences on Lemmy. That’s enough for me to know what’s best for everyone.

Only the people that matter have the means they have.

Totally get it. And honestly in Texas it doesn’t matter so it’s not worth changing.

We have open primaries. You don’t have to register Republican.

That being said, I’m registered independent. It’s none of anyone’s business that I’m a social Democrat.

I once counted to 23 by taking off my shoes. Would have been 25 if it hadn’t been for that firework accident at the meth lab.

Most of my friends are also on a spectrum.

White Amanitas are lethal, never touch those, but with Muscaria you could have some fun.

These are my favorites because of their common name. Destroying Angel.

Fun fact: the survival rate without treatment is about half, but that goes up to ~90% if you get treated quickly. However, it can still destroy your liver. The toxin is thermostable so cooking doesn’t break it down. It is excreted in urine so a lot of the treatment consists of pumping you full of fluids and making you pee a lot. There is no actual antidote to the toxin.

I already voted so I can’t vote for him either.

A good joke will make my night but anal sex will make my hole weak.

I stopped in today after months because my friend is launching a game and I wanted to give them a like and a comment. When I left Twitter my feed was just nerd shit and makers.

When I logged in today it was several right wing advertisements at the top. When I went to search it was more Trump shit. I just wanted to support my indie friend. That’s it for me.

Somebody was wearing their gargantuan, steel ovaries on the outside.

Calm down there, random Ferengi.

Who do the women supporting Republicans beat?

Based on my childhood, their kids.

Bullshit. They’d never call them women.

Wasn’t that the one where the media isolated his yell to make it a million times worse?
