  • The negative space between the eggs around his head in this image makes him look like he has pigtails. Saw it and had to punish/reward everyone else with it, too.

  • I like to think of it like a broken bone. Yes, your overall health is important; no one is questioning that. But if you go into the ER with a broken bone and the doctor tells you that they're going to ignore your injury in favor of telling you to take your vitamins, they're an asshole who doesn't care about your pain or healing your injury.

    Systemic racism is the broken bone. No one (except, perhaps, assholes and billionaires) disagrees that all lives have value. Saying "all lives matter" in response to "black lives matter," though, is saying "let's wilfully ignore the problem because I am clearly okay with the status quo."

    Edit to fix typo.

  • I wish this were still the case. The last time I saw one of these was a year or so ago and I was excited to freeze. Unfortunately, the room AC was through a different, more modern, device. They just left the classic to toy with my emotions.

  • The only time I saw one was on a cheap dollar store plug. I immediately thought it was defective.

    This is neat info!

  • Yes! I love that one! Now with free shipping.

  • Elle Cordova makes awesome videos; this is one of my favorites of hers.

  • Seconded. It's a practice that really only exists to pit employees against customers for wages, rather than taking it to their employers who are actually responsible for paying them.

  • I think it should continue but every person who presents said card should automatically get the harshest legal punishment possible for whatever their infraction was.

    Would have been a warning? Guess what, that card now entitles you to a $500 ticket.

  • Agreed. The life of a phone includes multiple cables (unless someone here knows some trick I don't), so including OEM hardware that's tested and recommended for the device is great and I wish it were still standard. Phone manufacturers not including parts that they still sell separately seems to have little to do with environmentalism/conservation and much to do with profits.

  • They do this almost every year. It's not even really a threat, anymore, just an expectation.

    Vance is dumb* to come out and say it out loud because it makes him an easy possible scapegoat for the inevitable fury that a shutdown fight causes.

    *Shocking, I know.

  • Yeah, this type of "reporting" is infuriating to me. Claiming the election is in the bag is just a shitty attempt to depress voter turnout.

    I won't trust that Trump has lost this election until Harris is sworn in as POTUS.

  • And lo, Lemmy's next meme of the week was born

  • My condolences to your liver

  • The Princess Bride is one of my favorite examples of this, especially because the "story within the story" is the main story, which is unusual.

  • I agree, but I'm glad that some big news outlets are reporting it this way. Less not-so-subtle sane-washing and acceptance of Trump, more making him look like the weak weirdo he is.

  • This is super weird, but I've also been having a couple of other bizarre issues today (different device), so I'm going to assume it's something on my end. Thank you for sharing, and for checking! ☺️

  • Really? I got a paywall when I opened it.

  • No paywall

    Anti-abortion groups had tried to block the measure by arguing that proponents of the ballot measure had failed to meet constitutional requirements that the people who sign ballot-measure petitions be fully informed of the proposal’s legal ramifications.

    I expect their argument would be that people can never be "fully" "informed" unless they decide abortion should be banned. What twatffles.
