I know it’s bad when I rattle off some shit, deadpan, to my therapist and she furrows her brow like a disappointed teacher before saying “that is a fascinating upbringing”

Or so I hear…

Beware of the tankies, folks. I’ve seen them out here on Lemmy. They’re hopping from reddit and fb to here.

Keep your head on a swivel and remember that blog posts aren’t news articles.

I used to get a hankering for cigarettes once in a blue moon after college. I kept a pack of Marlboros for such occasions. Two drags into one of those loathsome little death sticks and I remembered why I never smoke the damn things. Haven’t smoked a cigarette in 6 years and I can count the number of cigarettes I’ve smoked in my life on one hand.

No. For the same reason that I wouldn’t avoid a relationship with a woman for having an appendectomy.

My mother and father were separated by the time I started asking questions about sex. My mother was super open and cool about it. I got boxes of condoms from “Santa” every year between 12 and 18. My father found out I was ready for “the talk” when an unused condom fell from my pocket during the laundry. I had already been active for six months. Thankfully, I grew up in a very progressive school district, so our sex ed course was comprehensive.

Drugs were a very Regean-era “just say no” from both of them. Interestingly, my best education about drugs came from listening to Blood, Sugar Sex, Magic with my father. He used to wax romantic about the tortured artists that languished under the weight of their addiction; robbing the world of more music while inspiring such remarkable lamentations.

THE MAN IN GAUZE. THE MAN IN GAUZE.

Open denigration of them, Trans folks, women, Haitians, and all non-white Americans.

He is a severely silly person who should not be taken seriously about anything by anyone. Unfortunately, he is taken VERY seriously by a dangerous group of folks.

So you killed one person? To save numerous others? When the others would’ve died through your inaction?

Curious.

I am also intrigued by Putin’s plan to take all our country’s conservatives.

So the federal government will hold a substantial amount of Bitcoin? Presumably by the Treasury? Who will make policy decisions and regulations about how the bitcoin can be held and distributed across the government? And this will be different than our current system because the money is in the computer now?

Ditto in Arizona. I get notifications when my ballot is mailed, received, and counted.

No, I wouldn’t watch that interview. I, and I’d wager everyone else using the fediverse, am highly skeptical of large media institutions specifically because they engage in questionable journalistic practices like this.

My point is: there is no scandal here. It seems to me that this story is getting signal boosted specifically to discredit the president. The realities of interviews like this are left out of these headlines and it’s very frustrating.

Yes. I don’t personally understand what the story is here. I’ve never heard of any high-profile politician going into an scheduled interview without a team providing a list of approved questions.

That depends on the decay factor of one centaur to the next. If the centaurs shrink by anything more than a factor of two, then no. The creature will converge onto a single length.

I was going to ask for sauce, but the first result of DDG was enough proof for me.

It’s debian-based, but such an outlier from the rest of the linux ecosystem that it might as well be its own beast.

How do posters know why people buy their steam decks? I bought my steam deck because it runs linux, so their initial argument is kind of a non-starter
