Bloody hell, this is the US version of Brexit… this world would be such a better place if people just did the bare minimum of reading into what they were actually voting for before they fucking voted!

Also, seeing the other top searches being about the tariffs would have me creasing if it weren’t so disappointingly stupid that these peoole seemingly knew nothing about Trumps most advertised economic policy before (assumably) voting for him

While it sounds a bit defeatist, he does make a brilliant point. All of this is no good if all the leaders of the worst offenders outright refuse to attend these events and actually commit their countries to meaningful change.

Exactly. This scene is literally Grimes having a meltdown over Homer essentially never having to feel the consequences of his actions and failing his way to success and a cushy lifestyle.

If this were a meme about Israel, it would at least make more sense, as certain non-voters would have an excuse to be frustrated - but with it being about Project 2025 it just doesn’t fit at all, as voters are the frustrated ones here.

Honestly. I’d be fine with a touchscreen for things you wouldn’t likely be adjusting on the go anyways - but basic stuff like the radio and AC/Fans should always be easy to distinguish, don’t need to look away from the road to operate buttons. Making basic stuff require touchscreen is inconvenient at best and outright dangerous at worst.

Oil giant wins the right to keep fucking the planet. Great, just fucking great /s

While I agree, it would probably help if the Dems actually tried being left-wing for once, rather than always trying to be Republicans-lite

Honestly not even bad life advice…

You might not get somebody’s POV, you might think it’s weird or bizarre, hell you might have no fucking clue how they got there, but the end of the day, as long as they’re not harming other people in the process, does it matter how they view the world?

Being exposed to all different walks of life is a good thing, no matter whether it’s Tumblr fetishes or real-world diversity. There’s a reason that higher education leads people to be less bigoted, and this is a big part of it.

Edit: Just adding on. I know myself I used to be a lot more close-minded than I am now, and I credit going to university with that - as said above, it opened my mind to different POVs and walks of life. Albeit I’m still not quite ready for whatever fetish pooltoys involves haha

Bloodletting is actually still used to treat some diseases - for example it is the primary way to treat Haemochromatosis. Until recently, in the UK at least, people with this condition couldn’t donate blood, so it was just thrown away like back then too - though more recently they started allowing donations to help treat hospitalised anaemia.

Anon discovers that life often isn’t all that fair…

Being smart and hardworking can bolster your odds, but your lot in life really boils down to how lucky you are, and how well equipped you are to capitalise on that luck.

Unfortunately the right combination of extreme luckiness and ability to capitalise on it doesn’t come up all that often, so most people simply won’t ever get that lucky break.

When you consider that left leaning folk are more likely to lean into voting apathy that the right-wing, the DNC were fools to assume they had all the left-wing votes in the bag without actually doing anything to appeal to them.

For Christ’s sake, Harris got in because people wanted change over Biden, her campaign was for change, yet the first thing she says is she doesn’t plan to do anything different to Biden - and if that’s not a momentum killer, I don’t know what is.

Considering even MySpace and Digg stuck around despite falling into irrelevancy, I doubt Reddit will ever truly die off…

But I suspect that even irrelevancy won’t happen anytime soon, simply because there’s no slot-in replacement for Reddit.

As much as I like the Fediverse, we’re not a slot-in replacement. Decentralisation helps make us more free, but it limits how big we can get as a platform.

You would need a centralised competitor, something like what Xitter is going through right now with BlueSky and Threads. But for as much as Spez is a piece of shit, he’s no Elon Musk just yet.

Damn, I’d be salty too if I’d been fined just for having an expandable suitcase.

That gate operaror was daft - why the hell would anyone bother to go through the entire process up to the point of boarding with the case unexpanded, just to expand it on the flight so it wouldn’t fit into the cabin??

The only shame (for me at least) is that this is a VR title, so I won’t be able to play it despite being hungry for another Metro game since finishing Exodus

Oppressing fascists and their ideologies is a price I’m more than willing to pay to keep freedom for everyone else

Asking the Colonial powers to not make weirdly straight unnatural borders is like asking Russia to stop invading occupying it’s neighbours land

The poor VESA mount, she wasn’t built for this!

I don’t blame people in the US for believing that, when more than half your population (who actually voted) decided to vote Trump in (again).

Like the guy is unironically a treasonous criminal con-man so obviously under Russia’s (or more specifically Putin’s) influence it’s laughable.

Yeah… It’s not like anything Trump does will influence the right-wing of Europe and bring hell to the rest of us, right guys? /s

The people that refused to vote entirely on the basis of the Gaza have effectively shot themselves, and everyone else, in the foot.

There was never a real choice to stop Israel on the ballet, but now with Trump in office, even deescalation is off the cards.

It must be great for these folks to be able to wash their hands of it like Ponchus Pilot, whilst Trump gives Israel the go-ahead to annhilate the people of Gaza.
