  • Yea, hus speech kinda misses the point that these aren't immigrants seeking a better life. They're refugees fleeing violence. It doesn't matter if they land somewhere with little opportunity if it means they aren't under threat of death.

  • Doesn't address the entire cities already there. We ain't forcing entire cities to just abandon ship.

    It's far more useful if we talk about actually making what's already there sustainable rather than some authoritarian march out of the deserts.

  • Every local news network has been covering it, for reference. It's pretty universally popular since it's a Saudi owned farm thats growing super, super wasteful alfalfa in the fucking desert.

    Tbh, on the political front it's kind of a meatball thrown to Katie Hobbs, not that I'll be upset about that at all. Conservatives should never get their hands on the governorship again.

  • Literally worst fast food joint and the only people I've met who claim otherwise have objectively bad taste.

    Like no joke, objectively, "I love a butter and cheese sandwich on wonderbread", British, wouldn't know flavor if it ripped their tongue out.

  • How you're raised affects you're entire life, this would be especially true for someone who's never needed to even wipe their own ass. It's okay to dislike someone and how they are, have compassion for the misfortune (all the money in the world doesn't make up for missed parental love and attention) that produced such a shitty human being and not have it be a defense of his actions.

  • So instead of being a prick like the person you're actually replying to I'll answer you. Blue zones are areas where the population regularly reaches over 100. The point they're making is the people over 100 in those areas usually seem to be doing pretty well, moving, some even run, and die suddenly (things just happen to turn downhill very fast when you're that old, nothing sinister implied)

  • I feel like threads like this also make a good case that people really, REALLY, don't understand psychosis. Dude doesn't just hear a whisper in his brain and star murdering. Those voices build and build and build until you literally can't hear yourself think. Then you break, your mind isn't your own, the voices have entirely drowned you out and you're tired because they haven't let you sleep in days and you've been off doing who the hell knows because you aren't even in control anymore.

  • Well now I'm confused cuz I thought Lemmy didn't want a vindictive criminal justice system? If he caused problems by being unwell and is now well after treatment, why should he continue to be punished by being held against his will?

  • That's the worst take yet.

    Claiming NATO actions at the height of the cold war were aggression towards the modern Russian state is ridiculous.

    nuclear missiles in Turkey to provoke the Cuban missile crisis

    Except that was before disarmament? Which the US and USSR (and now Russia and many others) signed on to. Trying to say that 50yo actions taken at the height of the cold war justify Russia's modern actions is outright horseshit.

  • Gravity is why people lean into turns in the first place.

    Those molecules have velocity that's taking them past whatever body they're using for a gravity assist. The gravity of that body grabs the vessel and begins to pull it in, being pulled closer to the body generating that acceleration and not simply passing by. The previous vector doesn't just disappear. All that matters still wants to continue in that direction of travel, including the people. The result is people having to lean into the arc of the assist because their own momentum is still changing to the new vector.

    In short. Inertia is a bitch
