I’m not denying that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. I think that suggesting that the answer to genocide should be more genocide is absolutely vile.

“I oppose genocide. Unless it’s a group I dislike.”

We don’t have one. Running a search engine is expensive and you can no longer just run on endless amounts of VC. You need a way to make money somehow. Kagi might be the closest (I haven’t tried it because Google is still generally usable for me, but I’ve heard good things), but it’s not free.

Because even his idiotic voters wouldn’t intentionally drive up their power bill. Well, some might, but most wouldn’t. But if it’s harder for consumers to make that informed choice his friends in industry can flood the American market with inefficient crap and his voters will probably blame Biden or immigrants or Jewish space lasers for their increased power bill.

Prinzipiell ja, aber die grundlegende und trotzdem sozialverträgliche Überarbeitung des Rentensystems die wir brauchen kommt mit dieser Koalition sowieso nicht. Kein Fortschritt ist immerhin besser als aktiver Rückschritt.

You might think that’s no excuse but I’m not fucking with anything running on mains electricity. Thanks, but I like living and not setting the house on fire.

It’s not delusional if he doesn’t believe that. It’s just a fucking lie because he’s a Nazi trying to defend other Nazis.

That’s just how you eat rice with chopsticks? How else are you supposed to do it without making a giant mess?

Nice victim-blaming, creep.

A ladder. If it’s famous there’s bound to be a good chunk of change down there.

That’s just a No true Scotsman argument. Their (alleged) end goal was the creation of a classless, stateless communist society. They haven’t achieved that, and they wouldn’t have claimed to have achieved that. But they would’ve claimed that their crimes were a necessary step towards that goal. You can’t just brush aside the people most associated with the “far left” label, regardless of whether or not you personally feel like they are “undeserving” of it.

There are more figures on the far left than anarchists. You can’t just No true Scotsman Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot.

It’s better to be told that you can’t enter by the embassy than to be detained at the border.

Yes. Unsolicited dick pics are sexual harassment, regardless of who you’re actually sending them to. Also, I wouldn’t put it past people running scams like this to try and use your dick pics for blackmail.

Not always. In East Germany the (protestant) churches were some of the few places where organised resistance against the dictatorship was possible.

Real I’m 14 and this is deep vibes.

Nobody’s gonna stop you from doing any of that. Well, maybe from singing in public but that’s less about skill and more about not disturbing others by being loud and obnoxious.

Hair ties, hair clips, hair pins, those spiral thingies you twist in (no idea what they’re called in English) and hairspray to keep it from fluttering about. Lots of ways to keep your hair up and in shape, depends on what exactly you want to achieve.

That said, I don’t know anyone, like literally anyone, who thinks that keeping your hair up is more comfortable.

What if you told this girl you want to try to be friends, but please make an effort to not be so hot when you’re hanging out together. No makeup, her least flattering clothes

So basically “don’t be yourself and walk on eggshells around me at all times”. That’d make me just not want to be around you, even as a friend. Friends don’t do that. Do not ask her that.

Adding: that request would make me feel not just uncomfortable but actually unsafe.

… that’s not how the fediverse works. You’d have to move to an instance that doesn’t federate with whatever instances (regardless of whether those are Lemmy or Piefed or Mbin instances) the redditors flock to.

If you were an “intel analyst”, you’d know that Ukraine’s Western support would cease the second they’re starting to attack non-military targets, especially in Moscow.
