I still love that on Lemmy I can post in one thread and recognize someone I interacted with later on another thread. It feels smaller in a good way, like there’s persistence and character instead of commoditized identities.
Or just an idiot.
Oh so we’re racing to the bottom now? Word.

I don’t want to get my hopes up, but there is a very real possibility that there’s a lot of cognitive dissonance building up in the base between what their parents and society taught them was being a decent fucking human being and all the stances they’ve had to rationalize in order to believe they’re right to have supported Trump. That tension makes them unhappy and makes them double down on the more immediate, more personal decisions again and again.

I’m hoping this breaks open the floodgates.
I lived in Louisville, KY briefly, and the official pronunciation is apparently “Luuhwuuhh”. You will be mocked if you get it wrong.

I think we can call them astroturfed garbage.
Honestly the less you know and the less you think about any meat you’re eating in general, the more enjoyable it is.
Woof. I haven’t had nearly the same adventures in meat as you have, but I can say that duck tongue is gross.
Those words in that order are a pretty wild ride.
Looking for the chart of Most Slammed Presidents Since 1952.
Fun fact: the word “galaxy” has the root of “milk” in it. It’s dairy all the way down.

There’s a VR game that I think has a flat port as well, called The Last Worker. You basically play The Last human working at an obvious Amazon analogue. It’s pretty entertaining.
I saw that on the festival circuit. Still a highlight of my moviegoing career.
