Oh really? Damn, then I’ve been misinformed. I’ll have to take another look.

I want to be hype for it so bad, but I can’t get behind buying a Bezosmobile. I really wish somebody else was behind it.

The amount of people here who seem to think the dog actually shot the gun is insane.

They just made up an “ancient” Roman version of pizza??

Wait but I thought white rage tipping a nation into overt fascism was a uniquely American problem because we’re just so uniquely evil that American leftists should be left to burn in the hell our countrymen made without any sympathy or help, and not because this is a situation that arises from the inherent contradictions of capitalism and the long, long history of European colonialism and white supremacy that we share?

Well fucking well…

EDIT: sorry to intrude in your space but I’m so fucking tired of years of “you people deserve it, yes all of you.”

Yeah I’m a vegan and obviously it’s a significant problem for us, but plenty of people with a normal but shitty diet are also deficient. This isn’t unique to us.

That’s respectable and not the wrong way to handle it by any means, but after a certain age, and if you have a particularly intrusive career, it can be really hard to make new friends and have it get past loose acquaintances. I’m definitely experiencing that myself, but thankfully I’m still close to my old friends, just much farther away, geographically. (Also not OP btw.)

I don’t trust lifetime anything. That lasts as long as it’s profitable.

Not the guy you responded to, but I don’t see why it should be illegal to form groups and clubs to gamble under the condition that there is no “house” taking a cut, or maybe (at most) that a flat fee is charged for membership to allow for overhead (i.e., rent, dealers, etc.).

Let’s be honest, a flat out prohibition on gambling just means that it’ll only be enforced against poor people shooting dice or making informal sports bets, while must rich people and organized crime get away with breaking the law as always.

Maybe they have a point. We should strip anyone who voted for Trump of citizenship, and therefore they should not be allowed to vote. We can be generous and give them a freeby if they only voted for him in 2016, but anyone who voted for him in 2020 or 2024, at the least, shouldn’t be citizens.

Pronouncing the pastry like that outside of a French sentence irritates me so much that I do as my more rural relatives used to and say “crescent roll” and stress the “cress.”

Same here, but it was really easy to just make a new account on a new instance. You never know when your instance will go down (like Lemmy NSFW or, more recently, piefed.social) so you might as well just make a new one and try not to get too attached to any particular iteration of your account. And besides, karma actually means nothing here!

Nobody’s in any danger!!!

That’s fair, if it’s So Flo it’s literally swamp water lol

They said Massachusetts lol. I get that everyone has different taste but I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone else that described the water there as impossible to swallow. But I believe them, I thought the water in Poland tasted bad and I’m sure that was largely just because of what I was used to.
