I do admire his line of reasoning. Just every time. Like I used to do silly things in the sims and theme park, but his natural curiosity is next level. HOLD PLEASE.

News@lemmy.world•Trump directs Pentagon to 'use all available funds' to pay troops during shutdown
0·6 months agoI’m not American, but I just assumed the reason nobody was going to get paid is because the accounting/payroll office is part of the shut down. Am I being told that there is some other mechanism keeping everyone from getting paid? Like some autodeposits haven’t gone through?
They aren’t going to respond since they can’t read my friend.

News@lemmy.world•Taylor Swift fans want her to clarify whether AI was used to make recent promo videos
0·6 months agoSure her early stuff could be considered basic, not that that stopped millions and millions of people connecting with it.
But some of her later albums really surprised me. If you have the time and are interested, Folklore was lyrically interesting and I quite enjoyed “The Last Great American dynasty” specifically.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Has Charlie Kirk ever changed his views on a subject during a debate?
0·7 months agoI was listening to… CBC front burner podcast I think? And they mentioned that he has shifted his position on immigrants. He was quoted in the past saying any immigrant who graduated post secondary in the US should have a green card attached to the diploma.
Then some right wing nutjobs were mad about that and we’re targetting his events and harrassing him until he fell in line.
So yeah. He will change his mind, if he is bullies enough.
Also I think the group that were harassing his events was Nick Fuentas (spelling?) and now some of the coverage is indicating the shooter might have been a follower of Nick? I’m not sure how confirmed that is so do your own research.
But if it’s just right wing nutjobs killing slightly less to the right right wing nutjobs… Idk man.

0·7 months agoPSA: is the ceiling above your heater low? Check the clearance and make sure the new rod can stand straight up to get into the heater. You can buy segmented rods to avoid this problem.
Don’t ask how I know.

News@lemmy.world•Boy, 11, shot dead after playing doorbell-ringing prank in Houston, police say
0·7 months agoMaybe we shouldn’t be talking about this right after it happened??!?! Give the dead child’s family some time! Now is not the time for gun control arguments it’s the time to come together and support the victims, especially the man who shot the child, nobody thinks of their suffering!

News@lemmy.world•Artwork looted by Nazis 80 years ago spotted in estate agent ad
0·7 months agoI didn’t disagree with your “allocation” nor did I accuse you of antisemitism nor did I “connect Israel with all Jews”, perhaps your reading comprehension is worse than you would like to think. Explaining subtext as to why something would be perceived as a thing doesn’t make you that thing.
Let me put it this way: is it antisemitic to forget that the Jewish victim exists when discussing Nazis stealing art ? If not, does it SEEM like antisemitism if YOU then start talking about taking that money/painting that was stolen and rightfully belongs to some Jewish family somewhere, and giving it to Palestine?
Your comment made the connection.

News@lemmy.world•Artwork looted by Nazis 80 years ago spotted in estate agent ad
0·7 months agoThe funds, or painting itself, should be returned to the families it was stolen from. That family was very likely Jewish. So you saying “give it to Palestine!” implies taking from Jewish people, which would be unfair, but in this context also implies they “owe” it because Israel is to blame, and Jews=Israel.
I do see your connection now that you have explained it though, I wonder if maybe you just stumbled and missed the very negative subtext within your suggestion.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Did Ukraine provoke Russia by building a dam?
0·7 months agoWell now you are armed with that info for next time. I too have trouble standing up to misinformation. It’s a problem where I won’t just spout things I haven’t verified and can source, no matter how true I THINK it is. It’s baffling how others can just howl into the nothing about things they heard somewhere and are positive it’s true.
Last time I was sure of a point during one of those sorts of discussions it was amazing to see the deflation in the room. “What do you mean?”
I mean you guys are idiots, here’s where you can verify that. I didn’t say that because neither of them seem that far gone, they are the helpful idiots. And suddenly the whining about being a victim of a non existent problem quieted down.

Hopefully OP is genuine and will come back and see this and then tell his “friend” he is an idiot.

0·7 months agoIt’s funny when people don’t read the article and then make stupid statements about other people being idiots that highlight how stupid they themselves are.
You didn’t even have to read the whole article, you just had to read the summary available on this very page to know that she did exactly what your brilliant mind decided would be the smart thing to do:

It’s a woman (who was violent) remember. There is always a hierarchy, and given how blatant this was, it was probably easier to let her hang than to defend her. Save the MAGA energy for a good old boy.
