In my opinion, anyone who gives a shit about this petty Internet drama should log off and touch grass.

I've also been getting very bad stuttering that makes the game functionally unplayable. I think I'd love the DLC, if I could actually play it.

I still remember the one and only time I met a midwest.social user irl. I was part of the PSL delegation to a local coalition-building meeting. Someone had mentioned using fediverse-based sites to bypass censorship, we struck up a conversation after it was over. We both used Lemmy, he was on Midwest.Social. He asked "What instance do you use? Hexbear?". I told him, no, sorry, I'm in the PSL, I use Lemmygrad. I don't get to see posts on midwest.social because they defederate. Maybe you should talk to your admins about changing that. He got mildly uncomfortable, wrapped up the conversation and walked away. I imagine because he was confronted with the fact that those "Tankies" are not just Russian bots or (all) apathetic keyboard-warriors but do actually exist in the real world.

Anyone who posts a comment that is just "What?" (or even worse, "Whut", "Wat", etc.) will be put against the wall when the revolution comes.

IDF soldiers are beheading children by the dozen and we're supposed to care that a soldier - who presumably knew what he was getting into - was killed in a slightly unusual but likely more humane way than dying slowly of an infected shrapnel wound?

I work in a grocery store meat department, and part of my job is breaking down the newly-delivered pallets in the morning.

Ground beef was on sale and the warehouse had allocated (i.e., sent us extra on top of what we ordered) way too much. Each box has a production date and a use by date, but the text is very small, so I am supposed to write the day of expiration (excluding the month, since ground beef gets only 20 days on the shelf anyways; so a box that expires July 5th would get "5") in larger size and circle it.

I was very sleep deprived and on some of the boxes accidentally wrote the day of the production date (last month) instead of the expiration date, making it seem like they had 10 extra days. So the butchers ground other boxes before those ones, and the mistake was only discovered two days after the last two remaining (roughly 80-lb.) boxes had expired.

A funny mistake that's not mine is when a new hire, on his second day, was told to run our cart of fresh pickles. When he pushed it over the threshold from the backroom to the sales floor, the too-large, precariously-stacked cart completely collapsed, causing dozens of jars of pickles to smash (and to be clear, I did tell him how to push carts backwards over the threshold so that exact thing doesn't happen - he just didn't do it).

And to top it off, he wasn't wearing his slip-proof shoes (even though he had been told to multiple times), so when he was carrying a box of sauerkraut to the department to be written off, he slipped in the pickle juice on the floor and dumped sauerkraut all over himself.

maybe the democrats should try fielding more likeable candidates

If you believe this conflict is about religion, you are a gullible idiot. The conflict is a colonial one; the same sort of genocidal displacement we saw in North America only on the age of smartphones.

If everyone on both sides became Atheists, the Israelis would still be butchering the Palestinians and the Palestinians would still be fighting for their freedom.

$300,000? You mean a month's rent?

When a thousand people die in a day, it's a tragedy. When a million die over the course of a century, it's a statistic.

The logical chain they're missing is the fact that Capitalism is very literally using the sick and disabled as human shields - "Don't hurt me, or little Timmy won't get his chemotherapy!"

Speaking as a Socialist, no, lmao.

First off, UBI's are not Socialism. In fact, they are antithetical to Socialism. They are Social Democracy, which is objectively the moderate wing of Fascism, the standard borne by those who think we can make a better society by instituting ranked-choice voting, net neutrality, and a 32-hour workweek without ever looking past the symptoms into the actual problems inherent in the system.

Under Socialism, the vast, vast majority of science will be done (as it is/was, in the USSR and China) by government or government-funded research organizations, where materials are supplied to them and their research is guided by the public interest.

Cranks doing "science" in their garages and basements in their spare time will still just be cranks.

As a Catholic, thank you for mentioning this.

The bowling ball also pulls the earth towards itself. This amount is imperceptibly small but still there

If not also the entire automobile sector, and with it the American economy
