Teddy Roosevelt was shot point blank in the chest at a campaign stop. The bullet penetrated his chest after passing through a steal eyeglass case and his 50 page speech. Teddy noted he wasn’t coughing blood and knew he would survive. He calmed the lynch mod down that were going to murder the assassin and then did his speech.

He lost the election despite being a total badass.

Later, Teddy reluctantly ran as VP with McKinley who won the election and was quickly assassinated. Teddy became president and won a second term.

Anyway, attempted assassination isn’t the boost people think it is - even for awesome badasses like Teddy Roosevelt.

Such a hassle to remove the frozen burrito from a wrapper to microwave… 😩

He got 64 percent of the vote in the primary. He's running against two other republicans. The do-nothing incompetent sheriff is still likely to win.

"It's absurd that two months later, we don't have that," National Transportation Safety Board chair Jennifer Homendy said.

"Boeing has not provided us with documents and information we have requested numerous times," Homendy told the Senate Commerce Committee.

Say goodbye to breaks and lunch when working > 6 hours a day! Kentucky says just let the feds set the rules.

I have big boulders for inflicting car damage if someone goes off the driveway.

Otherwise I don't care if someone turns around in my driveway.

I’m a paying subscriber. Also I sometimes run across a gift link already shared by someone else. I’ll cut and paste that link to continue spreading a good article.

I’m sorry but you might have missed drinking black coffee with every meal… 😂

I agree because they are no longer “lower decks”. They are ranking up and it’s dumb.

Polar vortex is broken along with jet stream.

Side note: This is an example of why we should call it climate change instead of only global warming. Nitwits can’t understand global warming involves massive fluctuations of temperatures worldwide.

I have a number of friends that live off real estate holdings. None of them say they are retired. Constantly busy with maintenance.

Half of them are focusing on selling their properties as tenants leave.

I think this is such an awesome idea. Have an entire series that is made to highlight the Vision Pro.

Can you imagine if Severance had a season that was 3D Vision where you could wonder around that nightmare office?

Open an issue on GitHub or make a post here?

I’d really like to see a “hide” for a post. For example as a go through Memes community and look at one… I’m done with the post and don’t need to see it anymore.

On Reddit you’d just hide the post and then you’d not need to worry about it - you can always look at all your hidden posts to remove the flag.

Yeah on Lemmy.sf.org the Apple@Lemmy.ml community has most comments missing. But stuff like Memes@Lemmy.ml seem to be synced better. Maybe there wasn't subscribers for Apple community until I subscribed? So now it is just slowly starting to sync up? If so how long does it take and how many days back will it got to fetch comments?

For example, I’m on Lemmy.sdf.org and I joined the Apple@lemmy.ml community. But there are many missing articles and comments. If I browse directly on Lemmy.ml for the same article there ~90% of comments are missing.

https://lemmy.ml/post/1152794 has 26 comments https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/11232 has 0 comments
