You’re suggesting that this is a stunt by Talarico’s campaign or by Kimmel? You’d sooner believe that both Kimmel and Colbert’s shows would pull the same stunt to boost their YouTube channels than believe trump’s FCC when they say they’re willing to pull broadcast licenses over political discourse?
The staffer at my Republican senator’s office when I call and tell them to oppose Chuck Schumer:
And you’d rather they didn’t? Obviously it would have been better if they didn’t mock climate change in the first place, but if they then use their same platform to use the same influence to acknowledge their mistake, it’s much better than them just staying silent about it. It’s incredibly counterproductive to mock people who actually admit when they were wrong, even if they’re not as quick about it as you want them to be.
“This is not something that is even seriously contested by anybody.”
“This extremist nonsense that I just spewed is totally real, guys. Everyone agrees with me. You don’t need to ask them.”
I dunno, shithead. Seems to me like that interpretation is seriously contested by the Trump v Barbara ruling that shot down your last stab at this. It also seems pretty seriously contested by a grade school understanding of the text of the 14th amendment.
People don’t buy products anymore. They’re too poor to care about. Businesses sell to governments and other businesses now and couldn’t care less what you want or think.
“Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others. The same applies when you are stupid.”
Wow. That’s dumb.
If nothing else, for the reason already discussed, that sometimes things like VAT are pronounced as a word and sometimes as initials. If you just write it like everyone else in the world who doesn’t write for the Guardian, then it’s just up to the reader whether it’s used as an acronym or an initialism. Nobody at NASA writes “Nasa” and NATO doesn’t use “Nato” (and “pin number” is redundant).
It’s like when the New Yorker uses diacriticals on words with repeated vowels like “coöperate.” Never once has anyone read that and thought “boy, that sure makes that word easier to read.” It just makes you think they’re being pretentious for attention.
TSA only cares about liquids, you can bring all the non-liquid food on you want.
True, BUT, I’ve seen them tell a guy that a salami was a liquid and confiscate it.
pawb I imagine has anti furry trolls
Maybe, but they’re also ban happy. The only ban I’ve gotten in almost 3 years of being on Lemmy is from pawb.social for, allegedly, being “a troll.” I’ve never commented anything disparaging about furries, and I’ve never commented or even voted on a pawb community.
Don’t forget when they were a roofing company, too.
Oh, don’t worry. He can just buy them from himself using taxpayer money via subsidies from his other company like he did last year. If you’re an American taxpayer, you’ve already bought one.
There’s a lot of bitter sentiment toward Talarico among Black voters in Texas who don’t think their interests can be represented by anyone but Crockett. Lots of “he hasn’t done anything to deserve my vote” kind of talk, if that sounds familiar.
The primary result shows that he is hitting the mark with everyone from progressives to religious moderates, but he’s got an uphill battle with Black voters and he’ll probably be spending a lot of time on messages like the one in the article for the rest of the year. I would hope that Crockett gets on board with endorsements and campaigning for him, but I think you may be right that she didn’t have that in her.
Not only that, their company is worth over $500B more than it was when they rebranded as Meta. They were valued around $1T at the time and around $1.5T today. So they have completely failed to accomplish anything of value or substance, anything that improves life for anybody, or anything at all related to their entire metaverse concept in that time, and yet the market has deemed that they should continue to skyrocket in value.

I think it’s optimistic to think they would even care about a boycott now. By volunteering to cross the lines that Anthropic wouldn’t cross, they’ve achieved Military Industrial Complex status. It doesn’t matter if you don’t pay for a subscription, you’ll fund them with your tax dollars whether you want to or not. Their mass surveillance tools are too valuable to let them fail, so they’ll get propped up and bailed out no matter what.
Banjo Kazooie Jiggies of Time
It’s a romhack by Mark Kurko that makes Ocarina of Time into a Banjo Kazooie game. It’s really well done and I’ve heard it’s even compatible with the recently recompiled PC port of Banjo Kazooie.
The last time I watched a 60 Minutes segment, it was hosted by Andy Rooney. But now I’ve seen this one and I think a lot of other people will too. Better still, they’ll see it contextualized as something the government didn’t want them to see. Thanks, Streisand Effect!
What’s your problem with Talarico? He’s pretty consistently voted against trans athlete bans and strongly supports LGBTQ+ rights in interviews. Why label him anti-trans?
