Slut shaming and publicly embarrassing Britney spears was acceptable when he did it but societal attitudes have changed and its not looked at as favorable.

Maybe they should permanently remove him from the position. Unfortunately our asinine laws let justices rile for life.

According to Lemmy.world they pay us Xi-bucks to say that

How do you make it

Wow I'm sure glad that the for-profit healthcare here means we get the highest quality healthcare in the world :-) That's why we pay exorbitant prices for it :-)

a community discussing collapse can't stay in a place which denies overshoot of the ecosystem carrying capacity. The Reese paper doesn't say a thing about eugenics.

Okay then, what do you propose we do if you believe we've overshot our carrying capacity?

We need to start distributing resources more effectively, not culling people. The majority of the human population consumes very little.

When people talk about overpopulation they always want to get rid of people other than the ones in their own home country, strangely. When the advocates for such policies are in first world nations that consume considerably more than the people they want to get rid of.

Let me ask you this: if you believe the earth has exceeded its carrying capacity, wouldn't your conclusion be to start getting rid of people or halting their reproduction? That's textbook eugenics...

 

I have a GTX 1660 super and I was wondering if its worth it to upgrade solely for RTX dlss benefits, and also what's the cheapest card I can get that would be comparable or better to my current card.

 

Inventing an enemy that lives rent free in their heads.

 

Like there was Best of 2020/21 with the worst takes ever. I'm looking for links to those plus the 2022 edition if anyone's got it.

I vaguely remember a few:

  • Bernie reminds me of when my abusive dad throws the pot roast at the wall when he talks too loudly about healthcare
  • political consultant white woman with dyed hair who looks like a hunger games villian and tweets like 90s era snoop dogg. I'm talking like "yo yo wiggity wack" levels of cringe
  • Person who says they would genocide 1 billion dogs to save a hypothetical baby, unprompted
  • Anti mask woman who posted a mask that looks like someone rubbed fucking Cheeto dust on the inside and says everyone's mask looks like that at the end of the day
  • hornyposting about sex w/ Beto or something

There's tons of others but these are the ones that live rent free in my head.

 

I have no idea what the fuck's going on most of the time unless I hear about it second hand.

  • I do not watch videos (I am a boomer)
  • I do not listen to podcasts (boomer)
  • I don't use social media except hexbear/lemmy
  • not gonna read the paper or w/e (not that much of a boomer)
  • I only read WSJ/HuffPo/Politico/CNN whatever for the laughs every once in a while

Any good sites you go to for reputable news? Blogs that are not necessarily news but are maybe about the news are good too. Lately I've been reading a lot of Erin in the Morning, for example.

Bonus points if it has an RSS feed

 

I created my own lemmy instance a while back so I could browse lemmygrad + other instances because libs automatically defederate from lemmygrad.

I remember when Hexbear started as a wee fork of lemmy and there were plans to federate in the future, and look at us now! Makes me happy to see people on lemmy dunking on libs and even changing a few bystander's minds. trans-specter specter Shoutout to the devs here, y'all rock. I love the qol updates like pronouns and emojis that we've had for years that beat out stock standard lemmy.

Anyway, love y'all.

p.s. But now I'm thinking maybe I should just nuke my instance and use hexbear exclusively? soviet-hmm it's kinda useless now lol
