Bingo bango bongo, I don’t want to leave the Congo

Saw-ree

It’s because it was offensive to Americans seeing children being fed at school

I don’t trust modern Rockstar to make a good game considering all the recent layoffs and union busting. That last game they made was in 2018, it has all the signs of over-budgeted, safe, corporate slop. The Rockstar I loved is long dead.

What’s tripping you up friend?

That’s it, I’m in my grandpa era, books (published pre-2022) and retro games only

If I could browse the internet at large with the same filter (that is to say only content pre-2022) I might consider still using it but as of right now it ain’t worth it. Might just build a zeronet with my friends at this point.

While this certainly could be true, I would say it’s only that way because state and federal government refuse to invest in our aging energy grid.

with proper taxation and directing that towards upgrading the infrastructure, supporting it is absolutely possible.

Tim Cook for all his faults is always been great at politics and this is an extension of that.

I actually got rid of windows instance entirely, I just realized one day that I hadn’t booted it up in 6 months, thanks Linux.

A wizard arrives exactly when he means to

This face always gets a laugh in the theatre

Try me

In order to even engage them with that fact you’d have to live in the same reality unfortunately

Yeah only the president of the United States is allowed to do that

We’re all cam girls in a surveillance state!

Ford seems to be taking from Tesla’s design language and trying to mix it with their own and the results are really fucking ugly

Actually one time in a fuel saving measure memo Obama mentioned checking your tire pressure as a small footnote and they made a major talking point on at least 3 weeks of Fox News about how his fuel measures were entirely about checking tire pressure.

Honestly, it’s exhausting on the ego, though, because I constantly question myself and I’m aware of how much I don’t know. From the outside, that does make me seem deficient.

I think that’s partly why the debate bro energy caught on, you don’t actually need to know anything. You just need to project strength.

The irony is that real knowledge feeds more doubt, not less. The more you learn, the more you see the edges of your own ignorance.

I think you might be taking the term a bit too literally. When people say objectifying, they don’t mean acknowledging or sexualizing their body. They mean reducing a person to just their body or sexual function, as if their mind, feelings, and autonomy don’t matter.

It’s when the body is treated as all there is. Think of the 1950s and '60s, women were often seen as existing primarily for reproduction or male pleasure, not as full people with their own goals, thoughts, or boundaries.

Sex positivity, by contrast, says: bodies are great, sex is great, but the other person remains a subject, someone with consent, desires, and dignity of their own. You can appreciate the body without erasing the person.

Honestly I find Lemmy to be generally sex positive as long as you don’t objectify.
