That’s okay, feel free to make the tree as gay as possible

No, I’m not talking about US military defectors but actual tour groups like https://www.youngpioneertours.com/north-korea-tours/

Believe it or not, it is legally possible to visit North Korea. If you are a US citizen, it is the US imposing the restriction, not North Korea.

According to another meme, anomalocaris is one of the most recognizable creatures of the Cambrian Explosion.

Opabinia is also another extinct creature from the same time period which is closely related, and was used as evidence for the existence of the Cambrian Explosion hypothesis itself, but is presumably less well-known.

Each primitive has at least one Electron instance dedicated to it. The advanced version also has a locally hosted chatbot per primitive.

Paywalled unfortunately but the puppet regime allegedly called the Samsung Republic, not to be confused with Korea, is believed to be underreporting homeless numbers

This is because the DNC doesn’t actually want to win, that’s why they ran him in the first place, but frustratingly failed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in 2020

I feel this way about most things.

I was literally struggling to answer 2 * ? = ¾ when being watched.

Of course, if you’re going to use US foreign policy, you have to include things like the 1973 coup in Chile when the US overthrew a democratically elected leader to install a dictator, because the US didn’t agree with the democratic leader’s politics

Can you remind me? I’m afraid the microchip conspiracy theory people have taken over that portion of my brain

Aw, it’s even in colors

Lemmy is addictive even with no algorithm or dodgy corporate ethics for example.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by this?

a weird parasocial relationship a lot of people have with him where everything wrong he does is just an oopsie

This is interesting, as there are plenty of other celebrities who have a sort of “cult of personality” like this. I could be misinformed but Donald Trump and Oprah Winfrey come to mind. I wonder what kind of phenomenon causes this and if there is any psychological research behind that.

gaming, like every media has always been political

Good point! The way technology itself is designed can even be political. I’d highly recommend reading Langdon Winner’s essay Do Artifacts Have Politics? about this.

I can’t tell if you’re being genuine or not, but there is a difference between using a swear word ever and being a hateful bigot and using slurs against marginalized groups

This is an insult to children, who are generally willing to share and kind people, unlike these corporate ghouls

Y’all have $100 to spend on those mushrooms?

They’re German, which makes it even better, as you could legitimately argue that a Jewish homeland should have been partitioned out of Germany as reparations for the Holocaust.

Person A: “I think the actions of the Netanyahu government are reprehensible and amount to ethnic cleansing. I think a government like that shouldn’t exist.”

Person B: “You can’t criticize the Zionist entity, that’s literally anti-Semitism”

Person A: “Well, this is a line in the sand for me that I can’t cross. So it’s all Jews then?”

Aren’t you at all concerned that you might create more anti-Semitism when you say that? It’s bad enough as it is — don’t give people legitimate reasons to turn into Nazis.
