I popped that goog and it’s just a YouTube channel for cute animals. It’s also apparently a thing in the Zootopia movies

- Comment on If I stick my head out a car window or a gust of wind hits my face it's like my throat closes and I can't breathe. How come motorcycle riders without helmets don't seem to have this problem? 5 weeks ago:
I used to go riding with my dad, and he had this incredible talent to, while actively riding at like 30mph, grab his pack of cigarettes, take one out with his teeth, and then light it with his zippo. Then just smoke as we rode. I was impressed 100% of the time.
He told me he’s definitely gotten some bugs in his mouth. Extra protein, he’d say.

It was recently proven that at least some dinosaurs had feathers after a piece of amber was found with a perfectly preserved dinosaur tail
- Comment on Team Snapchat still shows up in my notifications even though I have them blocked 1 month ago:
I have not, and I made extra sure of that
- Comment on Team Snapchat still shows up in my notifications even though I have them blocked 1 month ago:
This is what I thought too until I noticed the contacts listed were using the names I have for them - “apprehension”, “brazzle”, “dizzy”, “momster”, “Jared who hit me”.
They’re not using another angle to dick people over, they’re just ignoring security preferences and blaming us for getting mad
- Comment on Team Snapchat still shows up in my notifications even though I have them blocked 1 month ago:
I’ve never given Snapchat access to my contacts ever. It’s not only blocked in the app, but also on the system level. And yet I still get connection suggestions “from your contacts”. It’s infuriating

It’s a fun read!
- Comment on GOAT 2 months ago:
The current Congress has been one of the least productive in terms of passing laws… But one they did pass was the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It was the best chance to hold perpetrators to account, and had bipartisan support (which is hard to come by these days).
What I’m getting at is nobody has said “oh well”, but a handful of people appointed to the right positions have blocked anything from moving forward with it. And that’s frustrating as hell. There are also tons of distractions, such as the war in Iran or anything about the ballroom, which can make it feel like The Trump-Epstein Files™ are behind us. But they’re not.
(Though they should be)

I just read it for the first time and the things that really stood out to me were the parts about Israel
During these times, there will be an evil ruler in Israel who will wage war and cause cities to become desolate And The Antichrist will form an alliance with the ruler of Israel and will desire to occupy the coastal area. Where the author specifically calls out Gaza.
This was last updated June of 2020, well before the October 7th attacks that led to the (ongoing) genocide

Cool, sounds legit
- Comment on Dumb stance 4 months ago:
The law is meant to be fair (which is a separate can of worms, but the goal is fairness). It is not meant to be moral, though it often follows what people generally consider to be moral, like don’t rape or murder people.
And, honestly, using the “reasonable person” argument here goes against your point - it indicates that people with different morals exist, and therefore morality must be subjective.
- Comment on Dumb stance 4 months ago:
Honestly this is a pretty big topic in philosophy. It could be argued that morality is a human construct and therefore must be subjective.
Some people believe that not going to church each week is amoral, but some atheists think organized religion is amoral - who is right?
You and I can agree that murder is immoral. Would that stance change if we were on the jury for a murder trial and, if found guilty, the offender would be sentenced to death? If that doesn’t make us murderers, what makes the death penalty an appropriate and moral punishment?
Simply replying “false” indicates little to no thought on the subject or its nuance, and gives off strong “I’m 13 and this is deep” vibes
- Comment on Happy Easter Lemmy. 4 months ago:
I think it’s a reference to a lyric in one of his songs where he pronounces “me” as “may”. The line sounds like “it’s gonna be may”
I’m not sure what song it is, I’m just really happy someone pointed out the answer 😆

Somewhere there’s a meme about how The Matrix referred to the year 1999 as the height of civilization and I can’t stop thinking about that
