I just want to specify further that large corporations that own a shit ton of properties are to blame.

Most pollution comes from shipping, agriculture, and other large industries. Poor countries/people cannot contribute because they are barely getting by as is. Even if the entire middle class in wealthy countries magically switched to electric/public/bicycling, started recycling, stopped watering grass, etc. it would make no noticeable difference.

The idea that social changes at individual level can help with pollution comes directly from propaganda pushed by cunts who are actually killing our planet for profit. Fuck them. Don't spread their lies.

Yes it was. That's exactly what I was referring to.

They are not as extreme, but you cannot realistically have a civilized discussion on their servers. Unfortunately they are much more established with several big communities which are hesitant to move to more reasonable servers so while hexbear was an easy insta-ban for me and most other Lemmy users, we're stuck individually blocking ml users for now.

But hopefully because of the idiotic choice of the ml domain, they will eventually go the way of hexbear.

Why are you looking at other countries when literally any state would be better than the shithole you're in? And even there I think you'll be perfectly fine in major cities.

But you're welcome to California. Not prefect, but not fucking Texas.

Yeah, verb is kind of a stretch though.

I've seen this before and always thought the verb was a stretch since it is definitely not used in modern English, but I do like the idea of forming a sentence this way.

I'm sure there's a better example in Ukrainian, but

Як як? Ну як як? Як як як...

Not really a pun and not translateable as a joke, but same word that can repeat to form a sentence.

Joke is a guy went to the zoo and friend is asking him how was yak. He replies with yak was like yak.

So you stopped using an iPhone too? Because Apple also renamed the gulf in their maps app.

Is Symbian still good these days?

Can confirm. Had to buy a Pacifica because I needed a wheelchair accessible minivan and only Pacifica offered the features I wanted. Absolute piece of shit of a car. I don't think I ever regretted any purchase as much. I would 100% compromise on the features I wanted had I known how much this car sucks. I'm talking about a brand new 2024, very well equipped car. Do not buy a Chrysler. I can shit on this car for days AMA.

No, but severe shortage of controllers and pilots can lead to more mistakes.

What does this article have to do with your argument that Biden supposedly also offered US take over Gaza?

Not only is the "source" an unnamed diplomat, but even if that claim is true, your argument against someone saying Biden's plan didn't involve removing Palestinians from Gaza is that Israel doesn't give a shit about international law?

Are you saying Israel would fight US troops if they deployed in Gaza to get rid of Hamas? Just trying to understand the crazy logic that only makes sense in your head.
