That’s the image I got. I don’t know if Lemmy lets me post the whole image. I don’t know if it’s the original either, but I used this as a desktop background for years. I ditched it on the upgrade to 4k. Size is 1.2 MB

If you want to have a romantic relationship with someone, you probably want to know if they cheated on somebody before you go for it. Otherwise you’ll probably get burned just like they burned others. Maybe Anon wants a loyal girlfriend

There’s a lot of hidden costs and infrastructure needed for magical flying beasts. Not to mention limited capacity. Little can compete with the horse drawn cart when it comes to capacity for price though.

- Comment on Need More Proof Biden Was Drugged for the State of the Union? Here It Is. 8 months ago:
I thought all that money came from the COVID relief bills in 2020. That was when stimulus checks and Paycheck Protection Loans were given out to everyone adding a whole bunch of extra liquidity that went to business interests.
Not all of this can be blamed on Biden, especially since his spending was into infrastructure and tech. Granted infrastructure can only get you so far, (see China) but it’s likely going to be better aimed than thousand dollar checks
This might be a case where we need to rethink fiscal policy across both sides of the isle. I don’t think either party is interested in such a measure. That leaves fiscal conservatives SOL when it comes to long term finances.
- Comment on Analysis: Why it will be tough for Biden to defeat Trump | CNN Politics 8 months ago:
Inflation has risen by 3.1% from Jan 2023 to Jan 2024. The target that the Federal Reserve has is 3%. Consumer confidence may be a different story though, as even though market indicators say there’s a strong economy, people saying that the economy is bad will make people say that the economy is bad. There’s currently a labor shortage and strong jobs growth and wages are starting to grow in real terms for the first time in a while.
Granted, the only thing that matters in the end is if people think the economy is bad

The economy is actually doing quite well under Biden. Between the IRA and CHIPS, and other measures, manufacturing is looking good. Blue collar jobs are doing fine too, with some hiccups due to world events. I’d rather have Biden anyway especially since he has let the Central bank have autonomy to set interest rates unlike Trump who took a less conservative approach and more of a populist approach.
