Dinner is around 2pm and the biggest meal of the day. Supper is around 7 pm.

Молодец, Володя! Пожалуйста, явись в ФСБ, чтобы получить следующее задание.

As somebody who just came here from Reddit, I find all of these communities refreshingly free of American politics.

Hey, South Dakota! Keep your vile, subhuman trash to yourself. The rest of us don’t want it.

Oh, look! Another disingenuous, confidence gaming piece of shit has entered Florida’s 20th race. Fascism about to become real and much more dangerous and we have amoral, shithole Florida districts all trying to play “Who can elect the biggest grifter?!?”

As somebody who has viewed Hasan Piker’s stream from time to time for years…I feel that even though he says this, and will likely continue to say it for two and a half years, he will “pull the lever” for whoever the D candidate is on Nov 7. 2028. This assumes that the Dem party and mainstream media don’t just stand by and let the GOP suspend elections in 2028.

To be fair, the cynic in me says Sanders never would have become president. Even if the DNC had let primaries take their natural course and Sanders had come out of it with the most electoral votes, then the DNC would have just brokered their convention and given it to Biden or Bloomberg anyway. If they somehow didn’t do that and Bernie was the actual candidate from the D side, the mainstream media coverage of him would have all sounded like Fox News or Newsmax fluffing Trump. All his major media coverage would have been Marxist chicken-littling. If, even after all that, Bernie somehow won in November of 2020, he never would have made it to the inauguration. He (and his VP candidate) would have had a little accident, a la Jeffrey Epstein, Paul Wellstone, Vince Foster, Terrance Yeakey, etc.

Gee, I wonder if the corporations will win these cases?

And yet, still, somehow orders of magnitude better than the current Nazi GOP. Even if you believed in stupid ass bullshit like purity tests or “both sides bad” before 2020, there is no effing justification for not voting D in 2020 and 2024. If you voted GOP either of those times, you are a complete idiot or a nihilistic troll. You became aware of what you actually voted in for Jan 20, 2017 - Jan 20, 2021. If you voted R again after that, you can’t play ignorant.

Yep. This is exactly why. It makes logical sense if they only thing that matters is profit. Several places that I worked would allow the public to come in and request these “about to be tossed.” items to take for free. You had sign up, provide ID, and come right at closing time, though, to do it. The employees were not allowed to do this for the reason rumba gave.

I guess the laissez-faire attitude towards pedphilia makes sense in this light.

I guarantee you that a non-neglible percentage of these maroons knew exactly what Trump is and exactly what would happen to the migrant workers in their town, and happily voted for him anyway. A good chunk of them actually hate the browns (and trans, and students, etc.) that much.

Goodbye, Discord. It’s been real.

I think we all know who Tesla’s worst enemy is…

Yoko Tawada’s next novel centers around a Japanese near future where all that is left of their civilization is a few thousand elderly Japanese and millions of robots that provide all the health care, farming, etc. that their society requires, but can no longer provide for themselves. The novel starts of with a prologue that begins just after that event which triggered Japan’s eventual descent into oblivion, February 8, 2026.

This. Maybe don’t waste time and energy vilifying them now, but once Trump and his vile sick have are least not in charge of the Executive, then we can talk about what to do with these supposed ‘Trump Mea Culpers’. I say they should maybe get a slightly more comfy setup in their reeducation camps than those that didn’t stop supporting Trump until after the fact. The fallout from this needs to be a metaphorical bloodbath for years afterwards.

The GOP candidate for mayor of my city has been convicted of poisoning and killing 341 dogs. The Democratic candidate once had to kill her dog 30 years ago because it was rabid and violent.

They are both exactly the same. I don’t know who to vote for?

I could not stop thinking about how expensive it is for us to maintain these tiny towns, and how much better the outcomes would be and for how much less money, if instead of rebuilding their tiny town, we moved them all to citiesreeducation camps.

FTFY.

Let’s see Canada join BRICS+.

I guess I thought it would be longer before I saw openly vapid, grifitng, right-wing, cult of personality in the office of prime minister of Japan. SMH. I give it less than two years before reasonable Japanese wish their government hadn’t installed this clown as prime minister.
