What? Stop watching fox News and read a text book.

I am under the impression that Sea Walls will accomplish nothing. Their water table limestone, so to speak. They are going to b3 drinking salt water tears before their houses are permanently flooded.

I believe his Twitter show episodes are around 10 minutes long.

Knowledge Fight has been deconstructing them the last few weeks and they seem pretty short on content so far.

Except we know Biden will beat Trump.

We don't know that a Newsom campaign could beat Trump and I think we would be foolish to assume so.

Generally, if the VP doesn't win the nomination, the party doesn't stand a very good chance of winning the election. I think if Biden didn't run and Harris did not get the nomination (I think Newsom would slaughter her), Trump takes 2024 fairly decisively.

I think the democratic party's best path forward is an uncontested Biden/Harris reelection, and then instead of running in 2028, Harris decides to retire.

The most vocal atheists tend to be people who just deconverted and the humorlessness is likely due to to still working through trauma.

They also kind of have to learn humor as they go. Have you seen faith-based comedy?

You definitely are not American. AOC can't run for president until 28 due to her age.

Reading /world news yesterday was quite sobering if I had any thoughts about going back to reddit.

Suddenly, calling a man Pringles was the height of humor and almost 0 informed discussion happening in the megathread and the people who were being serious kept getting drowned out by Pringles jokes.

18% is a huge margin in a democratic election.

Here is what I honestly think happened: a lot of older gen x and boomers saw their reputations destroyed on Facebook during the Trump Era.

The people who didn't leave Facebook because of them just put them on mute. They only had other old people to communicate with. This didn't satisfy them though, because really their entire ideology is wrapped around triggering other people.

So they went to reddit and discovered that anonymous shit posting was safer and their Facebook went back to livelaughlove largely.

Except not eating dead animals doesn't lessen a person's quality of life.

This idea that you are suffering because you ate a piece of tofu is absolute nonsense and I suspect somebody who figured out how to use the fediverse isn't this daft.

Is steams mod team part of the corporate hierarchy as many brand subreddits are?

If so, we might not be getting the full picture because I can't imagine they are behaving this way with companies who are otherwise considered brand partners.

I went to VOAT in 2020 just to check it out. I kept clicking the random page and I shit you not it cycled through about 20 Qanon/maga subreddits and one random bird watching community.
