That and he's rigging stuff to stay in power he doesn't need elections, democracy.... Just bootlcker stormtroopers that follow what he says and hope people some rise up too soon....like last year would have been.

But today would be cool too if any Americans want to resist an authoritarian government under....Trump of all people. It'd be nice if he wasn't in charge of the world's largest nuclear stockpile. Just saying as a neighbor not wanting to be part of the states. I like my healthcare and I doubt it's a package deal.

I think even a random office environment may frown upon that sort of behavior. I'm less than social but I do put on my retail front when in an environment with coworkers. Thankfully I work from home now so just need my customer service voice when using the phone heh, wish they'd figure out that email works just as well, 99.9% of the time, sometimes better.

Or relief....no wonder they're always aggro on film arms can't reach far enough.

That was one of my favorites with Cartman being more of an asshole than usual, and poking fun at what pretty much current day AI is, all shit.

To be fair I thought it was funny before ai, poking fun at consumerism and a crass movie. There may have been more or less who knows. Well someone Shrug

It made me laugh lots over repeated viewings is all.

Yes I know it's lawful but sometimes awful I very funny. And I've enjoyed South Park since it aired, even painted Kenny on my race car hood....though lost the car the next race. Best legal high, going fast in a car with no tickets...hot damn racing is fun.

I never watched it growing up but everything I've heard about it since I was an adult is great. Never watched much skit comedy outside of kids on the hall and that's just when not much else was on.

Nowadays I'd say the kids in the hall stuff was much better than other stuff I watched, cause I'm not sure I even remember....some syndicated sitcom I assume, waiting for dinner.

Still recall some of the taglines as little as I saw it, since you were waiting for the next show (possibly Simpsons at one point on cbc).

Didn't really surrender just let like 5000 militants go free from prison without coordinating with the local government to create a shit show to be able to point and laugh (well close anyways). Those deaths were for his betterment, people serving their county put in a spot by the last president. How that alone couldn't get through to voters is awful.

How anyone can think he should be in charge of a fast food joint let alone a country is baffling to me.

Just one question to any Trump supporters would you trust Trump to take care of your baby or toddler for an afternoon? Seriously as much as we complain about other presidents I don't think I'd be worried about a toddler in their care besides the current one. That one makes me think he'd get bored and just assume someone else deals with it, like the umbrella he couldn't close and dropped at the door of the plane.

Good to know we have friends anywhere since the meth family moved in next door....again.

I always felt closer to EU than the USA ideologically anyways, I just think so much policy was put through due to the US and competing for workers etc. I imagine it's a bit of a fire sale on good talent from the US though they'd get a number of offers for the best. Taxes make things possible for countries being selfish helps no one but the self which, and sorry if it offends, but that seemed like the core ideology down there. It's just been taken to the extreme now.

I got to lovecrafian and was sold, I do enoy any journeys into cosmic horror, from a toe dip to what the freaking hell. Still working my way through his stories but From the Mouth of Madness was a favourite movie growing up but I couldn't quite place why. Then I discovered cosmic horror and had that 'ahhhh ding' (holy choir going ahhhhh then ding at the realization second with a light shining....okay I watch a lot of tv and movies). sort of experience.

Also did not realize there was a movie, but I think I'll end up doing some novel experience before the movie. Been burned way too much the other route and they spoil the best parts for the worst take on the story usually. If not the same here, well it'll be fun for a change of the movie being a better storytelling (unless I misread / understood the comment sorry reading quickly)

Thanks for the comment I'll definitely be checking it out one of multiple ways for sure.

Sorry if I repeated myself client doesn't do edits well. Keep selecting everything sometimes. Unsure if device or client but when it starts can't do much.

Of course the US does, Trump was elected a second time.

Things are only good when Trump wins to him, no matter how much you show him, his narcissism will never let him say he lost any contest. If it was a footrace with the last Olympics gold winner, he'd have some stupid excuse.

He could enter a songwriting contest and then say it was rigged because he didn't win. @

Seriously how can people stand this childish whiner in the US? All those that don't like it? Stock up for a bit then sit and do nothing. That's all nothing. Mean it's not much further than current actions taken against him. I think the owner class would hate that more than they enjoy Trump tramping everything from rights to norms.

Too bad Trump is dragging down the US to be the shithole countries he complains about. The only country for him is where he gets a military parade hourly (in case he misses one in executive time) and has an endless lineup of people praising him. Then he'll get annoyed some random country didn't praise him.

I still think if he was given a ticker tape parade every day since his second election win, he'd say the same thing. Cause he has no coping mechanisms for a loss. Awesome leader you got down there. Please don't come up north, we have our issues and don't need to upgrade our neighbor one to be more problematic.

Also get your shit together US. You got a freaking idiot thinking he's a ruler to remembered for greatness. If that happens we'll end up hitting the great filter of ... Whatever that paradox idea is (brain fart but about meeting new life etc why we don't see it).

I should really read that if it's the first part. I knew it existed but nothing else till now. Do enjoy the Dune novels for their philosophy bits (mostly as intro to a chapter as an idea but you can see the ideas used in the actual story sometimes or perhaps all the time and I missed some)

I'll be honest I wasn't quite getting the comments cause I didn't think the middle ages had nearly as clean sheets even being a king.....yeah read the same way. Makes way more sense now.

[–] orbitz@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah that seems reasonable, I don't think any sort of deal for power would outweigh any impact on local people for power increase.

Hell I'd say they need to pay a percentage of any power increase (like not all but something reasonable, I really have no idea like 40-60%?). I have no idea of true impacts of differences but my understanding is we have so many people living close to the line of poverty, why have a datacenter if it makes everything so much more expensive for people not using it? Especially when it's not like that center is going to do anything but suck power and provide few local jobs.
