Both of my cats are not assholes. I swear they are not forcing me to write this.

And this is only to begin with.

Republicans won’t allow it. They win when people don’t vote, it’s a fact. They now dominate the legislative, so you can forget about it.

The real solution is to raise the interest of people in politics. Look at the south.

You just gotta fight back and live your life. Sounds simple, but in my country, we lived through “the perfect dictatorship”. We know this shit.

They should come to Mexico.

You’d probably like Paul’s Boutique by the Beastie Boys. You may also wanna try Nujabe’s Modal Soul.

Well, they are kind of solitary animals. No one will warn them about something big getting close from behind.

You are kidding me, right? The video was uploaded by a pro-Ukraine influencer in X of all places. Newsweek reports it and suddenly it’s taken in this community as the truth? I’m not saying it’s fake either. Just saying, it’s easy for someone in Ukraine to look like a Russian soldier making up some story about how stupid North Korean soldiers are in the front.

And even if the guy was a Russian soldier, under torture anyone would say anything, even something as lousy as “NK soldiers can’t comprehend left and right”.

Okay, then.

They are forced. They fight against the Ukrainian Army for their survival, because being drafted means they will probably die at this point. If they could keep avoiding the army, they would probably survive until this madness ends.

You can have your side on this and think Ukraine is fighting for survival, but that’s a point of view, an idea. Some facts are:

1. Ukraine is currently loosing this war. It’s even territorial.
2. Ukraine is loosing support from their allies. And if Trump wins, which is somehow plausible, they’d be practically alone.
3. Recently drafted citizens are just that, they are not soldiers. With their morale, they probably aren’t even fighters.
4. A good chunk of the remaining Ukrainian people don’t want to fight no more.
5. Drafting more inexperienced citizens will at best slow down the course of the current events.

Argument: War is almost lost. People are finite.

Wouldn’t say anything. I’d think about this song: “I took her to an elevator, I don’t know why but it had to start in somewhere, so it started there”.

Not an audiophile spotted!

It’s clearly a giant.

You should also take into account the animosity against lemmy.ml in general from some instances and communities. Something to do with the moderation here or something else.

The one about the head of my sister.

It was a total tragedy. My sister dies at fifteen in a train accident, all messed up. Except her head. While mourning for her, my family members start hearing rumors about her being miraculous. The rumors became a cult. The thing is, my sister’s head was invulnerable. Her head wasn’t damaged at all in the train wreck, and even dead, her head wasn’t decomposing.

People started coming to see it by themselves. It was true. Her head was pristine, but for us, for me, it was still my older sister. The cult became a part of the church. They built some temple for her head where people could go to see her. I remember the altar. It was all made of crystal, sometimes they put flowers there, giving it some color. Her head was inside a crystal cube on a pedestal, so people could watch her from every direction. They put her a crown, like a quinceañera (this is similar to a humble crown in one of those female beauty contests). To get to her head, people had to climb like a hundred crystal steps, curved, not straight.

My sister’s head wasn’t neither alive. The head didn’t age but also wouldn’t talk. Her eyes were always shut, but you could see her face, her mouth displaying different recognizable expressions, like a shy smile or some concern. She looked beautiful.

Probably the invasion of our civilization by an army of some rock-like anthropomorphic civilization. They were intelligent and very hard to hurt. Even if I dreamed them as a child, I still remember their faces and big heads with those cat eyes. They were never alone and sized like robust basketball players.

Delonix regia, the original flamboyant.

They should ask ChatGPT hoe to make OpenAI profitable. I’m sure the answer will make them take off.

For this, some people proposed to move the community from one instance to another. Now, it seems to me like the incentive to comment on instances ideologically biased for people who cares about the voting system is basically to troll the opposing instance. Which leads to this petty battle that I will ignore from now on.

EDIT: It’s also interesting to note that lemmy.ml is not like any other instance. In fact, it would be beneficial to not have big communities here. My account is here because it’s an old account, but lemmy.ml should be more like a “testing” instance, and they probably shouldn’t be signing up more people. The admins and devs acknowledge this from time to time. So, I guess everyone wins with this.
