Fwiw, I’m on an instance that doesn’t permit and can’t see downvotes and it’s pretty great. Makes the whole lemmy experience a lil better

I think fashion is very subjective. I have, personally, no interest in articles about Chinos that tell me to wear sports jackets or guides on how to fold pocket squares or aditorials from expensive designers making ridiculous looking scarves. The posts tend to skew a little formal and a little, well, straight.

But I recognize that tastes differ and some people might want to talk about those things. I like there’s a men’s fashion forum. I just don’t see a lot of posts that I personally find appealing and I don’t really know where to look for them to share some of my own.

Most of the people I hear who are bothered by Biden’s chances aren’t talking about Trump’s policies, age or lack of cognitive ability not because they support Trump, quite the opposite. They are scared of a second Trump presidency and are scared that the DNC will drop the ball again, fumble the election by sticking with a poorly liked candidate and they’ll have to suffer the consequences of America veering headfirst towards fascism. There’s no point to mentioning Trump’s similar or more dire issues, because he was never an option to them to begin with.

I don’t have faith that the DNC actually cares about the looming threat of fascism, the threat to civil liberties, etc, I think they saw how much in donations they got during the last Trump presidency and the surge in popularity even their most milquetoast center left candidates got and they think they can ride the wave for 4 years.

Bidens admin has done a lot of good and the DNC has been dogshit at demonstrating that with effective messaging. He’s also done a lot of things I find abhorrent and in a just world, neither candidate should be eligible as they’d be locked away in The Hague. But that isn’t the case, this is America, and I think the powers that be are willing to risk the election to save face.

Oh my God to be in a situation where a $.70 charge at the hospital feels egregious I fucking wish. I have insurance and I had to pay a doctor hundreds for them to tell me the tendinitis in my wrist was caused by the two cigarettes I smoked at a party a month and a half ago. I hate it here y’all

I’ll save you a click, the game was ArcheAge and the article doesn’t go into detail about their dispute, but does mention that they flew from Newark NJ to Jacksonville FL to try and attack em.

Must be related to them bringing the pandas back to the D.C. zoo

That curse has been rattling around in my head a lot these days…

Well said points and also thank you for your responses.

Thank you for adding context the article didn’t bother to.

FWIW I agree there’s a vile association that Zionism has created by claiming itself so intrinsically part of Judaism, one rife with hypocrisy and catalysts for undue hatred against Jews. That said, it’s difficult to see people’s homes targeted by protests like this with the rise of the Neo-Nazi right as it is in America. Its easy to get one’s hackles up. Personally, I’m not sure I agree with the tactics due to the optics, but I also don’t think it’s really my place to critique the methods of the oppressed against the oppressors. Though, I think these sorts of tactics make more sense in Israel and Palestine than in NYC and perhaps there are more fitting targets who have more impact on US policy towards Israel, but I also understand that those people may be far more difficult to reach and the consequences for trying far more dire.

I’m not sure we read the same article.

I think the quoted people were saying that throwing paint and writing slogans on the homes of Jews is antisemitism.

Lemme be clear and say what Israel is doing in Gaza is abhorrent.

I’m not seeing how defacing the homes of 5 people in NYC just because they’re Jewish stops the genocide of the Palestinians or helps them in any way.

What connection do 5 Jewish board members at the Brooklyn Museum have to what’s going on in Gaza?

The Pope and the Church aren’t friendly to the LGBT community?

Color me shocked!

Nice!

A proper fucking dog dragged through the garden, love to see it

I think I’d have the soup separate and dunk the sandwich liberally, but I can see spreading some on both pieces of bread first, too

Yo I hope you don’t feel much about the vegan hot dog thing, that one user was outta pocket. Shit looked good and of all the products to say shit on, the vegan hot dog is the wildest as the substitutes are damn good these days.

Also your soup sandwich looks delicious, tho it looks like one of those meals you need to eschew manners to eat and savor the mess after. I see cucumber, zucchini, mushrooms there, what else ya got on it?

It tastes good tho.

I like it when the food tastes good.

What? Salads at the BBQ are important and kick ass. Salads of fresh, ripe tomato and herbaceous basil with a touch of oil and vinegar, smashed cucumbers with chili powder and black vinegar, watermelon and mint salads, potato salad with a good mustard and dill…

They ain’t the mains at the meal, but they serve a critical function of rounding out the meals and brightening up the plate and palate. Plus they’re packed with vitamins so they help you drink longer in the sun without a nasty hangover the next day.

I’m guessing the polling method asks if you’re more likely or less likely to vote for Trump if he’s convicted then later asks your affiliation. The article goes on to say something like 44% of democrats were less likely to vote for Trump post conviction. Were they likely to vote for Trump to begin with?

This looks absolutely lovely, what sort of cake is it? What is the center layer?

Seems like an easy choice. You’ll feel the effects of daily drinking with in a week or two, but pot smoking? Doesn’t seem to affect the day to day
