Oh goodness.

I wish people would explain their downvotes for this post. It has more information and nuance than 99% of the posts on lemmy. I guess because it doesn’t fit whatever rage they are currently entertaining.

I had to laugh at an earlier observation of a homeless guy being kicked out of the UCI encampment by the protestors.

EDIT: Hal Holbrook wasn’t wrong when he said the change in the audience over the years for his Mark Twain show was a quickly dwindling ability to appreciate satire.

I wouldn’t trust a thing from mintpressnews.

EDIT: I have to laugh at the downvotes. They aren’t a trustworthy site.

I remember reading all the news reports about the trump administration just gutting the State Department and how that would backfire, usually specifically mentioning Africa. I wonder though, how much is just decades of US policy coming back to deservingly bite us in the ass.

Seems like a cart before the horse problem.

One of the people in charge of Ecuador when Assage was at the embassy was the guy they violated Mexico for to get. Different gov’t and Ecuador has been in a pretty shitty way for months now.

I wonder what the losing side will blame for the lack of turnout.

End-of-world evangelicals want the world to end. Global pollution, climate change, human rights, et al. don’t matter because rapture or some crazy shit like that.

“What really strikes me is that when we saw the injustices in Ukraine, the global community was united and was speaking out loudly against these injustices as we needed to.

What the fuck is she on about? We hear non-stop about Gaza and almost nothing about Ukraine since the Oct 7 terrorist attack.

Just being polite to you. I may not like Paltrow, but you’ve done nothing to make me not respond.

I don’t give a milky shit

Sean is always fine. The research level seems to have dropped the more popular it’s become. Which is weird. And no, I did not watch it. I don’t give a milky shit for Paltrow.

Hot Ones used to have interesting guests and interesting, deep dive, questions. This season really feels like it jumped the shark. Just PR for people who don’t need it or deserve it.

It’s absolutely stunning how defiantly ignorant the American voter is.

Nope, that’s just some weird babbling. Enjoy your ignorance and naivety though. Carry on.

LOL.

Hamas is fucking disgusting. They could end this now, but there is no end to the number of Palestinian martyrs they’ll sacrifice for their anti-zionist views.
