This can't possibly go wrong!

What's an artist / band that you used to dislike, but now enjoy? in c/[email protected]

Joy Division. It took several years of being a New Order fanboy before I revisited the earlier band and realized its genius.

It got bad several years ago, which is when I permanently jumped ship to DDG. It's nowhere near as good as Google used to be, but on the other hand, it's also nowhere near as bad as Google is now.

Is there a way to read all of Trump's Truth Social posts without actually visiting the site? (lemmy.world)
 

That is, is there an archive or a mirror somewhere? I don't want to give him the traffic.

Is there a website that collects Donald Trump's most incoherent speeches and tweets? (lemmy.world)
 

Sorry if this is the wrong community for this. I'm looking for a compilation of Trump's most rambling moments (e.g., "Look, having nuclear"; Gettysburg being beautiful; etc.). Does anyone know of any sites that would have something like this? Thank you!

When was the last time you purchased something at a vending machine? (lemmy.world)
 

I usually avoid them because of the mark-up, but yesterday I was in the mood for a soda and didn't feel like going into a store and interacting with the cashier, so I bought one out of a vending machine. I enjoyed it. What about you? When was the last time you used a vending machine, and what did you buy?
