Heading is better if you accidentally read it “Trump’s Head Still Missing, Presumed Lost on Appalachian Trail.”

Carbrain is strong, but they’re still trying to invest some in public trans. Unfortunately, I saw recently they’ve been pushing a public Uber alternative as a sort of last step after using a train, which I can’t imagine helps.

I kind of understand why-- LA is very spread out. I was told or was because of earthquakes that we couldn’t build high but that doesn’t seem to be true anymore.

If it’s any consolation, we haven’t taken the “one more lane” thing too far, there aren’t 12 lane freeway monstrosities at least.

Ugh duck autocorrect.

SMS has a character limit, although most modern phones that still use SMS will at least give you a 3/3 thing and send all three texts at once.

On the one hand, I can’t imagine the county in question has the type of tax revenue to support $500 million, even if they were the type to have change to raise taxes (they’re not). On the other hand, situations in which local governments can’t afford essentials is exactly when you’re supposed to have larger government (Texas, Feds) step in an subsidize, which of course they aren’t willing under GoP rule. Meh.

This sounds like something out of Rusty Lake to me, but needs more owls.

Lol, people have post-reddit PTSD if they think you’re a shill. Maybe if/when Lemmy hits the mainstream but man, we’re so off the radar most marketers have no idea this place exists.

It’s a waste of money unless you’re advertising something for Linux and/or communism… which would be a bit of a paradox, lol

I mean, is that merger of theirs even worth it? Skydance’s only noteworthy movies are those they already have a deal with Paramount for as it is. This is just so stupid.

Then again, $16m is chump change so I guess gems like… *Checks notes… The Old Guard 2 (?) will be a worthy exchange for any trust in legacy media.

I mean, I do like that new electronics smell. Not sure if it pairs well with the mountain dew reduction, though.

Not even just that, my stomach would make that weird gurgle sound and I’d be done for.

I have a feeling the bill hits Tesla or something. Maybe not directly, but with all the anti-environment shit in it that probably includes his shitty EVs.

Mike Lee is a notoriously despicable person even by GOP standards and the bill doesn’t have any legs. Like, just a week ago he said terrible things about the Minnasotan politicians who were shot dead in their homes, and he’s also the one who was pushing to sell off public lands (which he was bullied out of; also seems to be in the pocket of the Mormon cult).

The US stance on NATO is complicated under the current US regime but I doubt it’ll be by this assholes bill.

You know, as a spoiler I get the sense he’ll just make things that much worse for Adams. Friends in NYC I talked to said the only thing they didn’t particularly like about Zohran was potential Defund the Police stuff. Yet, Adams and Cuomo are both pro-police centrists, so that vote gets split (aka deplorable vote).

You know, it’s like how everyone saw RFK Jr. as a dem spoiler until polls showed he was taking more from Trump (hence him taking a bribe to drop out).

You know, use of long dash is the same kind of tell as an image having 6 fingers. Not impossible to find in human interactions but generally very rare, especially in online conversation. (I’m not even sure if my phone can do a long dash, just these fellows: —).

You said statistically, and Latino men in that country weren’t in the majority for Trump. But like I said, if you’re really going full statistics, non-voters tend to be the biggest group (just, we don’t exactly have exit polls for them, lol)

I used to contribute to Quora when I was in grad school, since I was actually learning a lot of the stuff people wondered about. Between lack of mods and their monetization schemes though, can’t do that anymore lol

Reminds me why I stopped going to quora. Do they just not have a way to moderate leading questions? Those people obviously know they’re just posting their BS in the form of a question, jeopardy style.

Subbed in any case. Lol

I wouldn’t assume that given his county, so try not to make it a leopard eating face / victim blaming story without evidence.

Plus if you’re really thinking statistics, he’s likely a non-voter and in CA one could hardly blame him if that was the case (our general election votes literally do not matter).

Heard the recording, guy sounds so Chicano it’s so obvious he’s from here. Local NPR station covered it a bit, people know they’re going to get racially profiled and keep their passports on hand, but even that’s not a guarantee.

Sadly it’s not even the first time this has happened. It’s everytime there’s an increased effort by ICE. I think they put it well when they said it’s akin to Stop and Frisk laws in NY that caused a lot of racial profiling.

That was my thought, having followed the social media coverage of recent unrest in Iran over hair covering and so on. Iran does need regime change, but Israel is definitely not the right people to do it. No idea the solution, but I hope people can find a way to stay safe.
