1000% insurance fraud.

And this photo shows a group of child laborers going in for a 12-hour night shift at a meat packing plant in Kansas, 2025. Just kidding, they will not make the mistake of allowing photography this time around.

George Carlin warned us about this 30 years ago.

I'd link to it but I'm in the middle of a severance theory video.

TIL I'm only 13. Hellz yeah, skibidi doo dah skibidi day or whatever the kids say now. I'll ask my kid now that she's older than me.

Vintage = old

Presumably, Pudin has some blackmail material on Orange Julius, though it's hard to imagine there's any information out there that could damage him. Russia literally already said they helped him win, so now he owes them. We already know he was Epstein's child trafficking partner; we already know he's a pedophile and a rapist and a child rapist. Whatever they've got on him must be insane.

You're probably right, but this feels an awful lot like a 'violence in video games will lead to violence in real life' argument.

Teslas aren't selling, but playing the victim, pointing the finger, AND collection insurance? Even better.

I'm sure a few radicals are out there vandalizing a Tesla or two, but I don't believe for a second this isn't insurance fraud with a bonus of labelling people who speak out against you as domestic terrorists.

Just gonna add that it can also be installed directly to any Linux PC or in a docker container. The raspberry pi isn't necessarily necessary.

To hurt The Nazi and Dorsey with one nickname, that's why Burr is one of the greatest.

Starships? In my Star Trek? It's more likely than you think.

I stopped using it when it was briefly 'banned' then 'saved by Trump™️' and while I do think the platform has (had?) more merit than people give it, it only took a few days for my brain to reset, and now though I have picked it back up here and there, I always get quickly overwhelmed and put it back down. It's nice that Loops and I guess Bluesky are trying to fill that gap, but I think it's probably best they don't succeed in copying the Tiktok algorithm. Though I learned and laughed a lot on the app, it was at the cost of having to sort any real information from multitudes of misinformation and a crap ton of my time wasted, and it left my dopamine receptors completely unable to motivate me to do anything else but watch short videos for a quick hit. I feel much better sticking to platforms like Lemmy and Mastodon that I enjoy but I could give or take. And like you said, the discourse is just abysmal.

This message is brought to you by people who don't pay for their own water.

That extreme's name? Albert Einstein.

Back in my day we called this 'sweding.'

Starlink has nothing on fiber, rural Americans screw themselves over yet again.

100% agree but we need them in order to right the ship rebuild the ship, and holding a grudge is how we push these idiots further right into the open arms of grifters ready and willing to use them against us. We have to be the grifters. We have to grift them into lowering their defenses, taking in new information, and making logical decisions. And some, I assume, are good people (sorry!) led astray by sixty years of propaganda and republican weakened education and mental healthcare systems. We can feel however we want inside our hearts, but like MLK said "Hate begets hate; violence begets violence; toughness begets a greater toughness. We must meet the forces of hate with the power of love."

I know, I hate it too, but I will meet that hate with love, too. I guess.

Only 22% voted for him, and a large portion of those fall into the 'no idea what's happening' camp.

Russia used to be godless commies, but now it's viewed as a white, Christian capitalist state with a strong leader. It's not, but that's the bullshit Fucker Carlson and other Russian sponsored propagandists have been spewing for the last decade or so.
