Going with this one. I blame Ghost World for starting my obsession with Indian music of all kinds. Started with Bollywood, into traditional sitar music. My playlists now regularly includes music from everywhere that I don’t understand a word of. 😅

Yessss Kula Shaker! I’m so upset I had the chance to see them live exactly once, and I was so drunk (stupidly because of a girl) that I don’t remember any of it. Big big life regret. :(

Dumbfucks that my dumbfuck country voted for.

You can make sure he does!

Just to say, this is on par with how many dictatorships are run. Spur of the moment decisions and edicts, with no actual protocol or procedures behind them beyond “this is a thing now”.

That way when you can’t comply, you can be arrested, despite not being able to comply even if you wanted to.

They may decide one day you now need a certain license to practice your profession, but there are no forms or procedures to obtain this license. If you contact the head of that department you are ignored. However, if the govt wants to shut you down at any point (say if you happen to be publicly dissenting) they can officially say it’s because you don’t have that license. The one that is impossible to obtain.

Of course you continue to work, you’ve got to earn a living, but now maybe you’ll keep your head down so the govt hopefully stays off your back.

I’ve kept it vague on purpose but it’s a real example that I’ve witnessed in an actual dictatorship. Not that the US was ever perfect, but the past year should be alarming to everyone who isn’t a fascist.

Yeah I don’t agree with you, but the place is literally called unpopular opinions, the ban makes no sense.

I think the bog screen is where they’re debuting Swamp Thing, no?

Right one for me, left feels a little cheap IMO

Please don’t post AI garbage

It’s like talking with someone who thinks the Earth is flat. There isn’t anything to discuss. They’re objectively wrong.

Humans like to anthropomorphize everything. It’s why you can see a face on a car’s front grille. LLMs are ultra advanced pattern matching algorithms. They do not think or reason or have any kind of opinion or sentience, yet they are being utilized as if they do. Let’s see how it works out for the world, I guess.

I saw a comic reposted on Lemmy about 2 worms and the presumably female worm asks her partner “Would you still love me if I was a big booty Latina?”.

Apparently that comic itself is a commentary on another recent trend of women on Tiktok asking their partners if they would still love them if they were a worm.

So, a few layers there. Not entirely sure if related, or just confirmation bias, but seeing the phrase “Big Booty Latinas” here on Lemmy twice in as many days seems more than coincidental. 🤔

This is what I don’t get, the UI looks so dated and messy to me. Everything looks like it came out of the 90s and never evolved.

My wife recently noticed a new sign by our building’s pool saying that you are not allowed in if you have diarrhea or have had diarrhea in the last 14 days. 🤔🥴

This was going to be my guess*, but I’m not familiar with Naked Lunch

The point is they are not literal in any sense. Most of these questions can be interpreted at least 2 or more ways. I can’t even wrap my head around what question 1 even wants. It’s like word salad if you really read it carefully and literally.

Can anyone explain #1 to me? What are you supposed to circle? It says “the number or the letter”. There’s 1 number and the entire sentence is literally letters…

It’s like when the waiter asks “Soup or salad?” and you say “Yes”.

You’d be surprised how many minorities voted against their interests as well. I have religious family who supported this. “Latinas for Trump” was also a thing. The stupidity of the human race is really something.

Not just your theory, it’s literally in the Project 2025 playbook. Flood the zone with shit.

The point is we don’t have to. THEY do, because by and large made-up strawmen and double standards are all they have. We have a fuck ton of actual crimes and evil heinous shit to actually throw at them. Where this guy was born is a waste of media space.

Sorry you’re getting downvoted. If anyone actually read the article he was born in current day Uzbekistan, had a childhood home in Malta and moved to the States as a child. His birthplace is as irrelevant as Obama’s was. Which isn’t to say he couldn’t now have Russian ties as implied, but that would be a different issue.

Clamoring over this just makes us look as stupid as these Nazis.
