Yeah, they totally missed the mark!

The conspiracy usually involves armchair phrenology,

They are probably conflating criticism of Israel’s government with antisemitism.

Is it decentralized like the fediverse or ‘decentralized’ in theory like bluesky?

Weird Al is gonna be devastated!

Spend a couple thousand on high quality gear for a home server to back up my digital stuff.

Spend a couple thousand on high quality outdoor gear like hiking boots and wool clothing (socks, long underwear). Buy a small tent to replace the really old one with the shitty zipper.

I have one or two more payments on my vehicle, so pay that off.

Put whatever I can into retirement savings and invest the rest in something mostly stable, like a mutual fund or whatever balances it out across multiple stocks.

The dentist is cleaning the buildup and checking for issues, not doing one of your daily brushings.

Brush twice, floss once per week or so. Dentist said to floss only once a day, I just don’t do a good job of keeping up.

You can take a toothbrush to work…

It is likely that getting the exact amount was actually difficult, and it isn’t like the party came out ahead by folding the way they did. It is more likely that the ones who chose short term results on SNAP and paychecks over sky high healthcare costs starting in 2026 expect people to have forgotten it by then. It really does seem like they just didn’t believe that the long term gains were worth the short term pains for whatever stupid reasons they have.

It was a response to a comment about the party as a whole so including the representatives who opposed in both chambers seemed relevant.

There are 47 senators + 213 representatives that are Dems or caucus with the Dems for a total of 260 total legislators.

It only took 8 of them, or 3%, to fuck over the rest. 97% of the party and independents that caucus with the party were screwed over by that 3%.

I’m hoping they draw it for about 5 seconds like I do.

Users only need to eat half of a shit sandwich!

This is less terrible news, not good news.

I was going to correct the meme and point out that the batteries need to go in the rivers where the electric eels live, but I forgot they go party at the Great Barrier Reef.

Some of them deserve it.

There were several instances where the only thing in the sidebar is the community rules only, no instance rules. At least one instance had rules in post that I don’t think was even stickied in their main instance community or something stupid like that.

I don’t bother reading the rules, because in the vast majority of cases they are vague enough to be uninformative (be nice!) or are so ridiculous that I’d rather just catch a ban than actively read every single rule everywhere to avoid tripping over one stupid community/instance specific rule. The only bans I’ve received across multiple accounts is either due to being a complete asshole (deserved), arguing with a stupid mod, or being banned for something the mod made up in their head to justify banning anyone who down voted a single post in one of their shitty AI slop communities.

Can’t delete an account when one never existed!

Maybe a few dates to wine and dine him?

There’s also a lot of people who just ignore things until there are lots of stories about evidence existing and then theh pay attention. That is the 20% or so chunk that started disapproving of Trump’s actions instead of not having an opinion over time. The ones that switch who they vote for from election to election based on whatever whim they have at the moment.

This is a big deal to get those people to care about Trump’s history of rape.

My right eyebrow has decided that there must be one hair that points directly forward and leans down into my vision. I’ve only plucked the offender a couple of times because I don’t want to end up pulling out too many in that area but each time it has grown back like it wants to be shark teeth.

No random hairs that I notice, since I have quite a few without being a hairy beast. They all have friends.
