Make them open and close in a circular pattern like a camera aperture and I’m in

I hear you. Hope the administration hears you too, for all our sakes.

I agree there’s a problem, and I agree about supporting progressive candidates when available.

I think this is being taken as the only option mostly because a lot of strong progressive voices sat out this primary.

Fair enough, to your point about people on Lemmy planning to make mistakes in November. I suspect those people aren’t the same ones voting uncommitted in the primary, though.

I mostly see those as motivated progressives trying to raise an alarm so Dems can course correct here. If Dems listened, they might give us more ammo to persuade those Lemmy users who aren’t on board.

I’d say the idea of using the primary to voice concerns about what’s happening in Gaza is the least harmful path for people who really care about stopping fascism in both countries. Dems need to really hear that there is a problem that needs to be addressed, and voting uncommitted is literally the least you can do.

Dems stand to lose a lot of votes if they continue to be silent for the “hug Bibi” policy.

Also, sorry, but I don’t understand what alternative you’re suggesting for this course-correction. Can you clarify?

For the record, my proposal is to hash this conversation out during the primaries and then go all-hands on deck for Dems in November. Because we have to.

I had heard the servitor story before but forgot where it was sourced. Do you happen to remember which book it came from?

I don’t know how to tell you this but… Batman kills the shit out of some people

Pain is le french word for bread, you see? Oui oui

I just don’t understand how Apple, a company known for their sleek, elegant design aesthetics above all else, put their name on something that looks so dorky

Ultimately, it’s selecting for crabs. Crabs are perfection. There is no escaping carcinization.

I’m sure they’ll do it in a way that’s convenient and doesn’t require 14 clicks through obnoxiously designed popups every single time you use a Google service. Yep, certainly no way this could go wrong.

Yeah I’ve gotten similar results too. Fwiw, I don’t think downvoting is a good way to change your results. It seems to key into any interaction at all and also watch time. As soon as I see certain people I started just swiping immediately

I think we’re sort of deciding that right now? Lots of new technologies are getting out ahead of any substantial laws that would protect human rights in these situations.

What if you have face unlock?

I think the divide is bigger on more important issues, so compromise and bipartisanship are more likely on less headline-grabbing issues.

Looks left at 90% of the human population causing untold suffering without giving 2 shits.

Looks right at the 5% that are actually bothering to do something.

“Yes, let’s shit on them”

The shade those parents must’ve felt to have their interviews used in what turned out to be free marketing for Nintendo lol

Boss: “And here I see you’ve accessed something called ‘Lemmy’ 315 times today, what the hell is that?”

@ttmrichter: “Oh, no worries, I blocked all the porn.”

Why block them? I like a little spice with my scrolling. Plus it’s a fun mystery box to see what’s under the blur. Straight/gay? Cis/trans? That one guy that literally just posts 100 fully clothed celebs every hour to disappoint you? Who knows.
