I think we all understand you are angry and respect that (I hope).

But saying it’s nice and good when people are helpful doesn’t imply that peiple who can’t help are not nice and good. There’s some kind of logical fallacy in that interpretation of it.

I agree. Even if the task at hand really is moving a couch, coordinatin, organising, etc. are crucial contributions that dont require physical strength or ableness to do.

Animal cruelty and gym culture. Off to a good start.

Yeah, this is entirely unhelpful.

USB, universal serial bus. What’s a serial bus?

It’s harmless, but it’s clearly the pet project of an exuberant nerd.

I can only say I agree. They are both poisons, if slightly different poisons.

Did someone say lifeless and sterile?

Can people really no longer differentiate between xenophobia and racism?

Not being pedantic, but misnaming thins only adds to the woes of the world, to (mis)quote Camus.

You should tell them.

Wait, isn’t the conclusion just Pascal’s wager?

This is from 15 years ago. How many more times will we have to see it?

In a sweeping investigation of the music of megachurches and political rallies, a journalist asks: How did songs beloved by white evangelicals become the soundtrack of Christian supremacy’s war on democracy?

Okay that looks genuinely interesting

It’s the current Lemmy drama and meta. Pay attention buddy.

Who cares about the pool, it’s a distraction of the most obvious kind.

What I’m wondering now is whether the USA can recover from this utter disconnection of the executive from truth and reality.

There is now a undeniable precedent of just lying continuously while in office, to essentially no consequence.

This sets a new floor for what you can do while in power. How this doesn’t break US American politics durably, I don’t know.

The only thing trans about this now ex-person is how transparently stupid he was (and, very likely, sadly in need of mental health help).

The MSO got 3 complaints after he made comments at an event attended by 150 people, factual comments at that, and freaked out and cancelled his next performance?

What a shameful lack of moral backbone.

You know what, it’s the MSO that took that decision, it’s people with names and faces. Let’s see and remember who these people are, so that they can’t claim in the future to have *always been against this".
