Rivian is an expensive failure. 😂 They’re going to steal VW 's money, whatever is invested, and they’re going to spend it all before VW can get it back. So…they’re going to lose at least $1B.

Is there any feasible way to repackage it, perhaps in a jacket of more reliable explosives, and use it on the Russians? If it’s so big & terrible…let’s give it back to the bastards. And blow it up. Return to sender.

Those people do not share your perspective. I do view it as largely subconsciously selfish, but your take is fucked up.

This is actually really funny because I think Michael Knowles talked about this exact same thing either 2 or 3 days ago. The conclusion was: we have these instincts. Some people just really like exercising them, and others, they’re exercising fear/horror/disgust in a safe, controlled environment because that helps to prepare them for the fears, horrors, disgust they’ll face in real life.

Not that they’re thinking that consciously. But subconsciously.

The message of Christianity is excellent for subjugating populations, giving them purpose & hope, keeping people busy & out of trouble. I think that all sounds very appealing to rulers.

Sometimes when I’m randomly banned from speaking for no good reason at all, I test to see if I’m still banned by typing ‘A’ & deleting it. This account has been muted for a week & it looks like it’s finally lifted. For now.

My stuff still shows up as ‘deleted by creator’. I’ve noticed the blanks, too. I use Sync for Lemmy.

Grayjay!! 🙌🏻

Hooray! 🙌🏻

Came to say, touch grass. Get a job, get busy. Clean your home (I sure need to!), tidy up your corner of the world & exert positive control over things you can control. If you can’t control it, please, don’t worry about it.

Sounds like a skill issue. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nice!!

Man idk, maybe he’s never really had a good grilled cheese. ¯\(°_o)/¯

"That’s the correct spot in the video.

I don’t want him touching the video progress bar!!"

I call bullshit on the claim it’s “because of how bullying cases were handled”. Looks pretty straightforward, racist AF to me.

And even if that were true, or more likely he was a racist dickhead, either way: if he had such a big problem, if he wanted to protest…you don’t have to publicly cross the stage at graduation. Not that he’s smart enough to reason this out. But crossing the stage is a privilege, it is public recognition, it is a community event. The graduate need not be compelled to participate; she could have received her diploma in the mail (like most do, anyway) & stayed home.

Although judging by the girl’s reaction, her father was acting off-the-cuff, alone, and without her knowledge. I’m hoping that’s the case. Racism is fucking stupid.

I don’t think Kremlin propaganda involves runaways seeking life elsewhere. Particularly their young women. That’s a really bad look for Russia.

I really love Linux!

I also use the term “legacy media”

Definitely not Kim Jong Un. He works so hard, he burns the energy from inside. He doesn’t have a butthole, he has no need for one.
