Everywhere should do this. If you're able to kill a politician and it triggers an election for anyone, then you're just sort of implying that political terrorism works. At least to an extent. The violence was able to indeed effect change because some loner or a group of lunatics is able to kill someone and stop the line of work of the party they disagree with. Now, that may not affect votes themselves in a byelection but still. It's not a message you want to send.

Edit: Oop sorry OP. Only just saw the text you had on the post. I'm just whole ass repeating you.

Edit 2: From the wikipedia.... Conservativism as a political moviement is a blight on humanity.

On 18 June 2016, Liberty GB announced that Jack Buckby, a former BNP politician, would be its candidate in the by-election.[14] Liberty GB registered the description "No to terrorism, yes to Britain", which appeared on the ballot paper instead of the party name.

Omg who told you that?

I would say you have no idea how weird it is having people act like you're famous just because you have a large meme collection but I'm fairly sure I've told you and why you said that, you ass

Good because I have a video of you watching The Joe Rogan podcast and verbally agreeing after sustained laughter. You will pay me $416 immediately. No that number isn't specific for any reason. Send soon or I send the video to your family and post to /c/holup. My linktree and Kofi is in my bio. Chop chop.

And that he did.

And do you know what? In payment for that, I'ma out you as one of the only people on Lemmy who has my phone number.

Get one or steal one! I NEED THE PEEN

I have a GoFundMe but I have to regain access to the account. I changed my number and their 2FA isn't super happy about that. But even then meh. I've got a ko-fi on my lemmy and like if people want to do anything, go for it, but I'm not going to be asking people for help when the world is burning down around everyones ears. I'm just some random asshole who posts memes. I've got $210 left. I might be able to figure it out. Might not. I dunno. But its my responsibility.

And nah that ain't me. I am not remotely that thin and not remotely that hairless. I'm more in the bear category. This is as close as Lemmy is ever gonna get to seeing my face. I'm smarter than Dream.

with Republicans in the states forcing things like they are (the latest being 10 years of not making any Ai legislation in the shitty new big Trump bill), we’re all pretty fucked.

None of you people are funny and I hate you

Should Lemmy support karma requirements

No, absolutely not, they can fuck right off. I hate that shit on reddit and I'll completely stop posting to any community/instance that implements it on the fediverse. It's completely disheartening to new users for them to find out that they can only interact after they've made posts elsewhere. Then they go there and those people have that too.

Your description sounds like you’re a parent and she’s a child.

There are so many jokes about me being the dad in the relationship. "Thanks Dad" and stuff. It was funny at first and can be still but often it just feels... yeah. Like that.

I definitely need to have a conversation but that one isn't it. She's got one more chance. I've got to figure out how to do it. I don't want to live with another stranger but I also don't want to be in the position I am in now, messaging people I haven't talked to in YEARS begging to borrow $20.

 

We're currently short on rent because of her. I've got to somehow magick up $200 to cover rent until she can pay me (and the few people I've had to borrow money from) back on the 7th. I had to ask the landlord in the past and he was okay with it but increasingly less so, understandably. My name is on the lease and I'm the one responsible for this. She hasn't had a job for a while and I've been pestering her to fill out forms for income support or even apply but she was dragging her feet. Now combine that with the fact that I'm the only one who cleans in the house. For a year I've been asking her to clean dishes and she won't unless zero other options are presented. I've been asking her to turn the lights/fan off in the bathroom when she leaves and she doesn't. I've been asking her to take out garbage that's by the door when it's ready to go out and she doesn't. I've been asking her to contribute at all to the state of the house and she doesn't. I love her and I know she cares about me because there's a ton of other stuff that proves she does but I can't say that I'm not feeling INCREDIBLY used here. I don't know how to go about talking with her about this. When I have in the past she says to use post it notes because she's forgetful so I started and it works a couple of times and then that's it. I don't even know how the fuck i'm going to feed the cat this weekend. I've got enough to last a couple of days and fairly sure i've got wet food she's picky on but will eat for a couple more. She's in on a discord call with someone and I hear laughing occasionally. And like I'm not faulting her for being happy or shedding stress or anything. I've been posting memes today and making comments. But it just... I don't know.

I don't feel okay and I'm scared. Both of potentially being homeless, of losing a friend, of conflict, of everything.

Sorry for the randomness.

Back to your regularly scheduled clownery.

Edit: I got it sorted, rent wise anyway, thanks to the help and generosity of people I do not deserve to have the help of. Thank you so much and I'm sorry for whining...

Edit 2: the Internet just got cut off. She hasn't been paying her half on time or in full and I've been stretching it. I'm just laughing. Laughing and laughing and laughing while I genuinely debate whether it's even worth staying alive.

Just one more for those who said "Sometimes you just know a Stamets post when you see one" or "Oh don't worry, I'm not going to forget you're gay. I've seen your posts."
