Can’t disagree there. The Leopards Just Ate MY Face?! would be a very entertaining show.

Making the assumption that you are getting your news somewhere else, not just burying your head in the sand, what are some sources that you, or anyone else who takes this approach, using to stay informed?

Do you have a link to that post?

They might file a suit. They’ll never see that money again though. Not until we have a functioning government again, but by then we’ll have much bigger problems to solve than a bunch of idiots getting their money back.

It makes more sense from the Gnostic mythological perspective. When you frame the Old Testament God as a Trump-type character who ignorantly claims to be all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful, and the only God, because he really doesn’t know any better, then the behavior you see in the Old Testament kind of tracks.

The US is not winning the war in Iran.

Because he started a whole war to get us to stop talking about it. So, don’t stop talking about it.

I want to switch to void so bad. It’s just that my machine is a laptop that I carry around with me all the time. I don’t feel safe doing that without encrypting it, and all I’ve gotten out of attempting to manually configure LUKS is hours of wasted time.

edit: typos. Stupid phone keyboard.

I thought I’d finally found the perfect balance between minimal tinkering and the features I want with Noctalia Shell. Then I switched to a systemd-free distro and it doesn’t work any more. Back to .config I go.

I need something to engage my hands and eyes. If I want to just sit and listen to music, or an audiobook, or podcast I usually play Tetris. It’s a really low engagement task that keeps me from zoning out. Starting to get tired it though so I’m open to recommendations for similar games.

@notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip gave a pretty good answer in a comment above https://piefed.social/comment/11085277

What is the context for this? Why does he keep making exceptions for South Africans specifically? Is this some kind of favor to shitheads like Musk and Thiel? Or is there some other factor I’m not aware of?

Who has the right one?

Go blast yourself, Pete.

100% agree about them having no shame. It’s like the concept just works in reverse for these people and their followers. The more vile and unconscionable they are, the further they go.

I feel you. I felt that way both times Trump was impeached. And nothing happened to him.

I’m was just being old and jaded, I guess. Thank you for not being that way, and for reminding me not to be.

I feel like this gesture will just embolden them. It’ll go nowhere and now he’ll be able to wear it as a badge of honor for the MAGA cultists “the woke mob couldn’t get rid of me!”

It’s like when you tell a kid there will be consequences for something, and then you don’t follow through. It just makes the behavior worse, and all your other kids know you won’t follow through with them either.

They can now say “Trump threatened to nuclear genocide us. We have to be able to defend ourselves.”

They couldn’t say that before. Trump just handed them that card. Fucking idiot.
