Just deregulate the eggs! No inoculations, no inspections.

If regular Joe anti-vaxxer wants to guzzle 6 blended raw eggs for breakfast well then I say let ‘em have it!

How does this not curdle?

You know what, if he wants to LARP as some big shot theater producer and the folks that run it can bog him down for the next 4 years with set piece construction, music selection, hair and makeup then I say Stay Gold Ponyboy.

The rest of us out here will look forward to your epic monument to yourself while we go back to living our own damned lives.

You laugh, but this actually kinda worked for 1980s Brazil.

Thems fightin words!

I have some engineering concerns.

For one, reducing the turbulence area and increasing the air intake at that angle is going to create a vortex near the intake. This could lead to dangerous cavitation and knocking effects. It likely will require splitting the powertrain into two chambers by an internal membrane. My suggestion is somewhere near the Mason carpetbagger and the Dixon scalawag.

For two, I think that was genius what you’ve done with the reduction of the diffuser, thus minimizing drag. But where, my friend, do you plan to dispose of all the waste products? We don’t want those infecting the rest of the machine, and I think it’s disingenuous to think we can just empty those right out into the environment, particularly when said waste products don’t believe in said environment.

Well dang. The cape cod dark russets are my favorite.

Yes. For one, Israel had already started on their zone idea. For two, Blinken was advocating for a two state solution because that was one of the requirements for Saudi Arabia to establish ties with Israel.

I can’t imagine the Middle East is going to be content with this occupation, especially if it leads to a new trail of tears.

Been a good long while since we’ve had a crusade. Y’all still got yer hats?

I think it’s stupider than that. Most of the people backing him believe the second coming isn’t just a fairytale.

Remember Don, the last time you went to a football game? Remember how that went for you?

In addition to the 1% rule that Blaze mentioned, there is the concept of tribes. Lemmy/MBin have fostered a tribal culture. Those that don’t follow in line with that culture are more fringe and as a result receive a different ratio of up votes to downvotes. It helps people find their place in our tribe, but it can also be off putting and result in a sort of self-exile.

I’m not saying this limitation is good or bad. I personally find the views here refreshing even if I don’t always agree with them. To me, it’s a comfortable little microcosm of the human experience. But it is just that, a microcosm.

If you want more people to contribute, we either have to evangelize and recruit and/or celebrate a more open culture.

Right now it feels more like the beginnings of Reddit. My concern is if we make a goal to get bigger, we’ll also fall into the trappings of current Reddit.

What’s your problem guy? What, now you don’t like clean ducks?!

How else you think we’re going to clean up these oils spills? Duck dawn dynasty watchin you.

MF guy doesn’t like clean ducks.

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

He’s just keeping in line with some zoo’s playbook: keep your friends close but your (self-imposed) enemies closer.

I mean, don’t y’all remember we fought a war against Canada and a whole other one with Mexico?

Blood: The rivers turned to blood
Frogs: Frogs filled the rivers Gnats: Dust from the ground turned into gnats that covered people and animals Flies: Flies landed on Mike Pence Boils: Covid broke out in people and animals Hail: Hail rained down <— You are here Locusts: Locusts covered the ground and ate crops and trees Darkness: Total darkness for three days Firstborn children: All firstborn children died

I disagree with your step out of the way remark. A lot of us are still mourning and reeling the loss of the country we thought we knew.

It also is important to make a plan and see the throughline amongst the chaos. If we don’t make a plan it’s going to be the summer of the 99% all over again.

Sounds like a good time for me to RESING then and get that sticky ball of wax rolling.

If I were past the retirement threshold, I would probably take this. If I were so burnt out that I could barely cope, I would probably take this. If I were dying and it wouldn’t affect my family’s benefits, I would probably take this.

But in all other cases, you know what I would do? I would reach out to HR and start having the discussions with them. I’d get those “efficiency” wolves salivating at the chance to vacate my position. I’d ask questions, I’d have trouble with the paperwork, highlight certain lines in the agreement where I needed more assurance and clarification. I’d inject additional terms…I mean really gum up the works. I’d occupy as much of their time as they’d give me.

And when it was finally time to sit down and sign, I’d rip it all up, right there in front of whomever I could get an audience with and tell ‘em I changed my mind. And then I’d do it all over again 3 months later.

Yea? But they say that they talk so much shit about him behind closed doors!
