going to be completely rehabilitated, or he’s going to be painted as the only bad Republican.
the only bad Republican? Nixon, Reagan, H Bush. None of those are given particularly great marks when covered in school.
Where are you getting your information from?

rewrite history
History is so full of rewrites that historians aren’t even in agreement on a lot of it.
- Comment on Anon remembers summer 2 days ago:
We’re a self-replicating petri-dish neural network grown for millions-billions of years out of evolution from discarded bits of virus data, damage and sheer luck.
We come up with how we think the world works and our brains fill in the gaps to make it true. We had to create the scientific method because we’re so intensely impressionable and pattern matching that we can’t get shit right without rigorous checks.
We’re even pretty sure we don’t remember things as much as we remember the last time we remembered it and reconstruct that.

Either of them closed are miserable to get hit by, they become a rigid body and absolutely smash. When the tops are open, they’ll expend most of their energy squrting the water out the opening, unless you’re REALLY good at throwing them opening first.
The scary part about cans is you can peel the aluminum back and turn them into impromptu shivs or slicers.

Likely either a contributing factor or a symptom.
Either way, emotional abandonment is a fix-it or GTFO thing eventually.

Also to keep people from throwing full bottles of capped water at people and hurting them

- Comment on Instant removal 4 days ago:
I guess it’s similar to cooking in cast iron
It’d have to be unseasoned bast iron. The polymer seasoning resists coming off and contains very very little iron.
We put ferrous iron in cereal; most supplements use iron salts, though. The metal salts are generally FAR more available for the body to take up.

As soon as anyone like that calls you inform them that the call is being recorded even if it’s not. They’re a lot less braisen when they think they might get sued.

- Comment on Doordash deserves it's fate 1 week ago:
I’m just thinking that eventually people won’t be able to afford double the price for DoorDash and they be willing to call the restaurant order the food with their own credit card and pay somebody $15 to pick it up instead of 30
- Comment on Doordash deserves it's fate 1 week ago:
But I don’t need millions of voices I just need local. I’m thinking I could get a couple of cardboard signs and say I will pick up the food you order and deliver it do you for 15 bucks.
- Comment on Doordash deserves it's fate 1 week ago:
You know, for 26 bucks a delivery, why the hell is their local competition?
- Comment on Mod of a similar comm to one I started deleted my advertising post, now downvotes half the stuff I post in my comm 1 week ago:
If you don’t like something that someone is doing in your own community ban them and block them. Lemmy is far too small for a childish bullshit.
- Comment on Who's going to watch departure times on the departure board? Let's use it for ads! 2 weeks ago:
Blanket advertising is this bubble. Has been for decades. It’s nearly impossible to get reasonable campaign data from a billboard. But in the scheme of business it’s relatively inexpensive so everyone just buys in.
If it’s not targeted, The vast majority of people aren’t going to waste their time on it.

This drink cooler will open and allow you to purchase a cool refreshing micro-plastic free water after a brief ad by nestle. Please stare directly at the screen for 30 seconds to unlock the case.
- Comment on Why do some people assume all immigrants are illegal and should "go back to where they came from"? Shouldn't that logic apply to all non-Native Americans? 2 weeks ago:
Oligarchs are seizing control of the country. Wages have been declining for decades; there was a time when you could buy a house with just a few years’ salary. As the rich become richer and the poor become poorer, the middle class slowly sinks towards the poverty line. To shield themselves from public scrutiny, the oligarchs use propaganda to spread Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. They deploy their most charismatic and beautiful individuals to tell you that if it weren’t for all those foreigners, you’d have a stable job.
Meanwhile, all manufacturing companies have been sold and moved overseas. Unskilled and uneducated labor is at an all-time low. Drug use is up, crime rates are soaring, and neighborhoods are falling into poverty. Is it time to protest, to start an uprising? But wait—straight from Fox News: all those immigrants who came over are criminals. It’s gang violence. Other countries are exiling their criminals and sending them to us. Our poor, uneducated, unwashed masses are eager to believe this, allowing the right to swoop in, carrying these people back home. They believe that finally, they’ll land that big job, get the big raise, the big truck, have nine kids, and live happily ever after.
- Comment on Europeans watching US/CA relations implode 2 weeks ago:
He’s had this weird thing about tariffs since even before he was in government. I think someone influential to him once said that tariff wars were the way to go. He tried them last term and they went poorly but that hasn’t deterred him what-so-ever.
He’s just parroting someone else’s bad idea, like most of the rest of project 2025

- Comment on Romance scammers are now in the fediverse 2 weeks ago:
The myspace founder, Tom Anderson made an account on his own service and it was added to the friendlist of everyone when they joined. It wasn’t a live account, just a friend that everyone had that wasn’t real.

Mummy won’t shout at you.
Who put you in charge of what words people choose to use do you have some form of badge for this?
Why do you get to matter?

You know, God forbid somebody uses voice dictation which bleeps it out or has to switch between work chats and social media.
Fuck, Even if it is somebody puritanical quoting on something they’ve got 70 up votes and somebody else has to come in and bitch at them because they might have sellf censored a word.
I think I’m just going to do the same rant every time someone plays that shit.

Why the hell do you care enough to post that here? What difference is it to you if they type pr0n or porn? The ‘you’re not cussing enough’ crowd confuses the fuck out of me
