I get you’re trying to do, but it’s almost disrespectful to say royalty is made up. Whether their grounds for ruling is still or not. Monarchies have had very, very lasting impacts on the world around us, almost never for the better. Going “Oh hahaha, look at them and their silliness” when many monarchs actively ruined countries, feels a little dismissive.

I usually just blame how autistic Lemmy is. Unironically, the amount of neurodivergent people here is huge and a common trait is focusing on the wrong fuckin details, especially with hypotheticals

Best I can do is tree-fiddy

I am, I’m still voting for the candidate I think I can help move on the issue instead of just letting the guy who will send the military against protestors win.

What should be and what is are almost never the same thing. We should keep pushing for what should be while facing the hard truths of what the reality actually is.

You never get full frontal of dudes because many of even the most sex-positive people hold a double standard against penises. Any time a penis might have to be on screen, it’s vulgar to them and at most belongs in humor.

I swear Texas license plates are like warning signs for bad drivers

I’m from Arizona, I know this. I’m saying the mestizos who wouldn’t get pissed at being referred to as such are far less in number than you think. Most ID far more with the colonizers than the colonized

Mexicans are native? The descendants of Spanish colonizers?

Arizona, figure the context being the US would at least make that an easy search but guess not.

Then sometimes you’re like me, living in AZ, not even on a VPN, being told “You Texans should be asking for ID” and just wondering how the fuck that’s happening

There are electors for every senate seat. This gives disproportionate power to the small pop. states (which go R most of the time) so Dems are basically always working with a ~30 vote deficit in the electoral college.

The senate is an undemocratic institution meant to protect the wealth. Abolish the senate.

Helps to know it’s divided into 4 sub-diciplines: Physical Anthro, Cultural Anthro, Archeology, and Linguistics. Each of these would approach the various questions through their own lense, finding the one that matches your topic interest best. You’re probably gonna want to look for things regarding cultural anthro, since that’s gonna handle the “why” of war more directly

A narcissist’s dream

Nah, Iran just had an easier time stealing from Trump’s camp. If Biden accepted the info, it definitely would’ve become public knowledge and Trump would’ve been non-stop talking about it.

It’s all bait trying to get the Dems to fuck themselves

From the sounds of witness reports, it was either 1 message setting off a 5-10 second timer, or it was 2 messages in a similar spacing. It was designed to get someone to look at the pager before it blew up in their face. Apparently doctors have been dealing with it blinding shit tons of people.

Probably azurite paint aging. Turns green (Edit: forgot to mention because it turns into malachite) over time and was super common Europe.

It’s why a ton of Renaissance art has greens where you’d expect blues

The player said the same thing

Not really. He didn’t shoot Reagan for politics. He wanted to impress Jodie Foster

Look at all the comments from people who didn’t read the article and automatically assume this headline accurately describes the situation!

He got himself lost despite his coworkers telling him he was going the wrong way.
