I also hate that it hurts the argument for inclusion. When they write a half-assed script, shoe horn some minority character into it, and crap out something everyone hates. The people who don't like that minority, are going to blame the minority for ruining what they love. All the while disney gets to pat themselves on the back because they helped out that community, it's just the world needs to catch up to their progressiveness.

I also believe a vehicle of just about any size bigger than like a golf cart should do the job.

We have a filter on the cold water of our kitchen sink. We always just fill the dog jug with the filtered tap water because you're not going to fill it with hot water. Well now they are spoiled and won't drink unfiltered water. We tried to give them unfiltered water once and it just sat there for like two day almost untouched. Spoiled little assholes would die within a week in the wild.

The other day my wife called CVS trying to get her prescription filled at a different location. I listened to her for 10 minutes in an infinite loop of listening to an automated voice and hitting menu numbers. At about the time I thought she was about to murder someone I asked "would you like help!". She said annoyed "I don't know what you're going to do that I haven't, but sure". I proceeded to hit 0 every time it tried to talk and it took hitting 0 like 50 times before it let me talk to a real fucking person. It's insane just how hard it is to actually talk to real people anymore. I don't care if the person barely speaks English and I have to use Google translate to fix my problem, you're expensive AI isn't better.

As someone who lives in a meth heavy area. This pic needs like 2-3 random teeth left, and a bruise somewhere on their face. Also it needs to convey that they still think they are very attractive, despite looking like they just got hit by a car(which might have happened).

They donate their wealth to avoid taxes. Basically their families control the foundations, they donate and avoid a whole shit ton of taxes their next of kin get the money from the foundation.

Adam Conover did a video on it.

Two questions.

  1. How many total 12 points words is the surface of the Atlantic?

  2. How many words a second are we gaining due to rising sea levels?

excel

spreadsheet

I use an excel spreadsheet that I made. I use conditional formatting to tell me when I need to change something of at least check it. If you're interested in making your own just ask if you have any questions

I used to slip in to a bit where I was sarcastically a character that took on beliefs basically the exact opposite of my own. I would make sexist or lightly racist (stereotype) jokes that I didn't actually believe but thought were funny. The jokes were ofter at the expense of myself or people like me but involved bringing up other races, sexes, and ethnicities.

I made an effort to stop doing this for a couple reasons. The first being that idk if I'm really good or really bad at sarcasm but a lot of people just wouldn't get my joke and I was afraid people actually believed that was who I was.

Secondly, I had a kid. I realized that she parrots everything I say and do, and she wouldn't understand the layers of the joke and could potentially become what I was making fun of.

I listen to a lot of comedians in podcast and I envy their ability to slip in and out of bits with other comedians knowing they all get it, but for now I make an effort to end that bit.

Reddit refuge here. I'm super sad to see people trying to turn lemmy into reddit, this is our chance to make it better. Stop filling the new feed with reddit archive bullshit.

Secondly, I'm fine with the porn. I miss scrolling r/all and getting the surprise boob. Surprise boobs are the best.

Although I will say the furry community on lemmy is fierce. I've blocked like 40 communities and I'm still getting dog dicks in my feed. How many different communities do you people need?
