Protesting in the US? like we are going to do anything to help? Better odds we help the Chinese fine a more efficient way to commit the genocide like we help israel.

Having 4 babies in 1 year in the 1800s had to be quite the achievement

You underestimate people's willingness... (desperation?) To be lied to. They wanted to believe it because he said everything they already believed and wanted to hear.

How much does it cost to not send them there in the first place?

He will be more against queer people than whoever the Republicans put forth? Really?

If candidate A wants you to hide your queerness and use the wrong bathroom, and candidate B wants to force you to be straight or go to jail or a conversion camp, are you really going to throw your hands up in the air and say it's not worth voting?

Voting for someone does not mean you support everything they stand for. It just means you think they are the best option of what has been laid before you.

It's because a good con man focuses on saying what people want to hear whenever possible. Makes them easy to manipulate.

Someone who actually wants to help you will tell you things that are hard to hear. Inconvenient truths. Sometimes we are not ready to hear them or accept them, and that's where the struggle is. It's the same as the concept of tough love in parenting (which for the record does not mean beating your children).

Janky fork (thelemmy.club)

I bent it using it normally, but can't remember what food bent it. I was impressed with how shitty it was so I bent it back and have been keeping it around.

This shit is old and still true

From YT description; In this compelling speech before Congress, Warren Buffett delivers a strong argument for a fair tax system, calling out the growing wealth gap and the dangers of eliminating the estate tax. He warns against a society where dynastic wealth replaces meritocracy, emphasizing the need for a progressive estate tax to prevent America from turning into a plutocracy. Buffett also proposes an alternative: using estate tax revenue to support low-income households, ensuring fairness in a system that disproportionately benefits the ultra-wealthy.

Key takeaways include: ✅ Why removing the estate tax would widen economic inequality ✅ How the wealth gap has skyrocketed over the last 20 years ✅ The real impact of tax law changes on the super-rich ✅ Buffett’s proposal to support low-income families instead of eliminating the estate tax ✅ The moral and economic argument for tax fairness

This is a must-watch for anyone interested in economic policy, wealth distribution, and tax fairness. Learn directly from Warren Buffett’s insightful perspective on how to create a more just and balanced economy.

It's time. Everyone agrees the DNC is a failure for numerous reasons. It's time to stop bitching and figure out how to fix it.

How do we get people like Bernie, AOC and Jon Stewart in charge?

Scro-Totum Pole (lemmy.world)

Today I saw a totem pole made of skeletons. I tried to come up with a word for it, something like skeletotem pole and accidentally imagined a similar sounding scrotum-totem pole.

Now you are going to imagine one. Do you draw faces on them? Position them to make eyes and stretch them out?

You're welcome.
