  Honestly, the Lotion Pit is better interior decorating than modern “is it a home or the surface of the sun oh my god everything is so bland and white” interior design.

  I’m old enough to remember 70s design still being normal and life just felt way cooler.

  Yup. Middle finger. It’s a large hand person thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i mean⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The first time I picked it up my hands were already large enough that it just felt normal to have each hand on the outer grips. I’ve been called a freak. Feared by children and scorned by adults. I was cast out of my village. Given no quarter.

  It’s been a lonely life, but I yam what I yam.

  Fun Fact: Holding it that way makes it a lot easier to break the joystick since you’re putting force on it from an angle. As an adult I’ve had to order after market joysticks with thicker sticks to replace the ones I broke as a kid. They’re actually much better with way smoother movement.

  I mean I play the games either way.

  So whether companies learn to make their games affordable for the vast majority of Americans who are cash strapped or not is irrelevant to me.

  I’m just wondering how long it takes these companies to realize how many others like me there are out there and that they could be making a lot more money if they just made prices reasonable.

  I actualy finally have a decent income and I still do what I do if the price isn’t fair, just out of spite.

  Your party claimed he was a threat but did nothing to stop it.

  You mean they didn’t make conservatives vote liberal or take every dipshit that voted 3rd party or didn’t vote back to school to give them a proper education?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oof. Censorship. Rare on Lemmy, but still present. Thanks for your hard work. You’re making a difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Miss me yet?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly? Kinda.

  Everyone walking around with misinformation devices in the palm of their hands isn’t working out so well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like that you think Americans allowing a carnival barker (rapist, felon, pedophile, insurrectionist) to become president, twice, is the Dem’s/liberal’s fault.

  My child, that shit falls squarely on Americans.

  It’s not like these were confusing elections. Dems should have been able to run a fucking goldfish and win. Because Americans should have seen the clear and present danger the Republican party and their pedophile leader posed. But they didn’t. Because Americans are dumb and the majority of the blame falls on them.

  Because many were stupid enough to vote for 3rd party candidates that literally could not win, and even more chose to stay home like a bunch of dumbfuck little bitches.

  Found the dipshit that thinks not voting leads to something better.

  Found the anti-American dipshit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It was also the only strategy last election, but millions of idiots still voted for non-starter 3rd party candidates or didn’t vote.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So you’re blaming Dems being weak for Republicans being fascist?

  Next are you going to blame the rape victim for not fighting back hard enough?

  Dems haven’t done enough. That doesn’t mean they made this all happen. Republicans made this happen. Period.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  their only policy for the last 10 years is we are not Trump, despite every other indicator showing that they are.

  Criticize the Dems. I’m not saying they don’t deserve it.

  But that statement is irresponsible. Dangerous even.

  The last time Dems were in power American citizens weren’t being executed in the streets in broad daylight by an immigration agency 1300 miles from the southern border. The last Dem president wasn’t sending a Gestapo into American cities to terrorize American citizens to instigate pushback so he could cancel elections. The last Dem president didn’t corruptly use the National Guard to take over Washington DC. The last Dem president didn’t instruct his DOJ to openly defy the law.

  I can’t believe this continues to need to be repeated but THEY ARE NOT THE SAME.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not Republican isn’t enough though.

  We can’t have a repeat of a bunch of bumbling dipshits voting for non-viable 3rd party candidates that literally cannot win or not voting at all.

  I will be voting for whatever Dem candidate is on the ticket. Because I’m tired of feds infringing on our rights and executing American citizens in the streets and the most likely way to make that stop is by voting for whatever Democrat is on the ticket.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A 3rd party candidate that can’t possibly win because they’re from a non-viable party that isn’t actually trying to be viable and who has zero representatives in Congress.

  Or maybe I just wouldn’t vote. It’s all so corrupt anyway.

  PSYCHE!!!

  I’m not a fucking blithering idiot. I’d vote for the candidate most likely to defeat Republicans/Fascists. So the Dem candidate. Whatever Dem candidate.

  Because I’m not a fucking idiot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How can we convince Trump voters to NOT vote for Trump (or Vance) in the 2026 midterms and the 2028 election?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  1. Buy a gun. Or two. Train. Help others buy and train. Many people just need that little push from someone that knows more about the process than them. It’s a whole hell of a lot more difficult to oppress people who are armed to the teeth. Just watched a video of armed protestors in Philadelphia. The cops show up, try to get them to stand down. They don’t. The cops end up leaving. There’s your proof.

  2. Hold conservatives in your life accountable however you see fit. If that means cutting them off, that means cutting them off.

  3. Fight misinformation wherever you see it by correcting it with facts. Even if it seems pointless. You aren’t commenting for the benefit of the piece of shit you’re trying to correct. You’re commenting for the other people that end up reading it and learning from it.

  4. Read the CIA’s “Simple Sabotage” handbook, which is available online. Do anything in it that you can reasonably do, ESPECIALLY if you work for the federal government.

  5. Support and protect your neighbors, assuming they aren’t conservatives. Do not aid or abet any conservative in any way, shape, or form. Do your due diligence and make sure any business you’re spending your money with doesn’t have conservative ties. Google the owner’s name and check their social media. Make sure they aren’t conservative.

  6. Vote. Every. Single. Time. In every election, no matter how small.

  It’s been over a decade.

  These aren’t confused people anymore.

  They. Are. Traitors.

  They are traitors who will do anything, up to and including electing a felon rapist insurrectionist who regularly violates the Constitution and sends a masked unaccountable secret police force to harass and murder Americans, in order to get what they want.

  That’s not confusion. That’s malicious intent.

  If you want to know how to make traitors stop being traitors. If you want to know how to make fascists stop being fascists. Well, I’m not totally sure I wouldn’t get banned for the answer. I definitely would on Reddit.

  Those of us who passed our history classes have been trying for a decade to get people to help vote us in the opposite direction of this. That didn’t work. Now it’s happening and there’s no easy way out of this.

  Do you think you’ll win people

  Do you think you deserve to be won over? Is that something you feel you’re entitled to? Why do we have to win people over instead of simply asking them to employ critical thinking to make the best realistic decisions? Because they’re dumb and need to be coddled?

  Did the non-voters that voted for Trump also vote for Kamala?

  Not voting and inadvertently helping the worst possible candidate is not the same as not voting and inadvertently helping the not worst possible candidate. You’re simply saying “I could care less whether we’re in a bad situation or a really, really bad situation”, which is objectively childish and stupid.

  Maybe the Dems could even run on something that’s good for us poors

  Spoken like someone who pays absolutely no attention to anything of substance. I recommend you devote some of your very precious time into reviewing the voting history of both parties. You will quickly see a pattern of Dems consistently voting for bills that help middle/lower class Americans and Republicans almost never doing so. If you had actually paid attention during Biden’s presidency, you would know this was also the case during his term. A wave of legislation meant to help average Americans. Again, utilize your time actually looking this stuff up instead of posting garbage comments on social media.

  You need to understand that the Dems you mentioned as ideal candidates may simply not be able to win. People constantly complain about Bernie being shafted, but the bottom line is he lost the popular vote in the primaries. He wasn’t as popular in reality as he was online.

  It sounds like you “swallowed your pride” and voted Kamala. Great. You don’t deserve an award. That was basic common sense. I guess just be glad you have that when so many others do not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Newsom Vows to Stop Proposed Billionaire Tax in California⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Then we’re going to have to listen to the dopes saying “how do you like it now non-voters???”

  A bad candidate is not an excuse to allow the worst possible candidate to have the keys to the kingdom.

  If you didn’t vote or voted 3rd party in 2024, you contributed to our current situation.

  SANCTION THE FUCK OUT OF US

  Hit us where it hurts. Our wallets. Fuck our economy up (even more).

  And if that doesn’t work, start forming military alliances and building up your armies as a show of force.

  I am here in America and I can tell you there are A LOT of dumbfucks here that can only learn through pain. So make it hurt. America needs to learn a lesson.
