…I thought it was don’t vote for Harris? And yippee, it sure is great that you couldn’t be fucked to vote for the lesser of two evils. Although maybe the current burn-it-all-to-the ground (focused on both Gaza and the US), will allow some type of phoenix resurrection in a few decades. I guess time will tell if your one-issue non-voting really made a difference or not. Short term, pretty obvious fuck-up, but long term you might have been onto something all along.
I thought zionism was a belief that Israel should exist.
From WordNet ® 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
Zionism
n 1: a policy for establishing and developing a national homeland for Jews in Palestine
2: a movement of world Jewry that arose late in the 19th century with the aim of creating a Jewish state in Palestine [syn: {Zionism}, {Zionist movement}]
therefore I’ve always taken anyone who says,“I’m not antisemetic, I just think Israel shouldn’t exist (IE, anti-zionist)” is a closet antisemite at best. Like a smug dork saying,“I’m not Republican, I’m Libertarian!” And I don’t really thinks it’s a game of semantics. It is semantics.
I can say that I really think the current Israeli gov’t should be exiled on St. Helena and not allowed to leave or communicate forever, but that doesn’t mean I’m anti-zionist. People who are anti-zionist seem to only have a selective and limited knowledge of a few thousand years of the history of the area.
When I’m on my home instance (piefed.social for you I suppose), I see a list of subscribed communities on the sidebar. I think you can go into your profile and see as well. I used to just look at someplace like https://lemmyverse.net/communities to find new communities, but I don’t know what the goto is now, it’s been awhile since I’ve looked.
One weakness/strength of the fediverse is that it’s not a single point of failure. By that I mean reddit might just nuke /r/foobar and it’s all gone. The fediverse may break up that single community into several, ie [email protected], [email protected], foobar@whateverhost. Now you have 3 or more communities discussing foobar, but they aren’t linked. The weakness is that they aren’t linked and can split the userbase. The strength is that if the owner of lemmy.world fucks off and their server disappeared, the other choices are still there. If you find <hobby or interest>@skism.net, but there only are a handful of people and 3 posts over the past 6 months, you may find the same <hobby or interest>@another.com that has a super active userbase.
It can be a little annoying at first, if you are used to reddit and 10k people commenting stupid shit all over the place, most of Lemmy you’ll usually find 10s or 100s of people commenting stupid shit. It’s worth it for me, and I haven’t opened reddit in over a year. Your mileage may vary.
Those are just off the top of my head. Pretty standard list I think. The more I was thinking of the question, the more I was thinking that the majority of films probably could be used as an answer.
I’ve seen it mentioned that his speech was more of a shot across the bow of DNC leadership, highlighting that shit needs to change. Personally, I lean more toward your sentiment.
Before I went to University one of my parent’s University friends told me that my dad got laid a lot back in the day. Like looked me in the eye for emphasis when he said,“A LOT!” I didn’t have the best relationship with my dad, but before I went off to higher learning, I broached the subject with him. “How?” was my basic question. He looked a little confused and just said,“I just asked them if they wanted to fuck. Most said no, some said yes.” It’s not complicated.
Samantha Bee had a prescient segment (not that it took much observation to get there) about Trump’s spreading taint back in 2017.
That is the one that’s killing me too. I just received an email that my subscription date is coming up. I want to cancel, at least my soul really wants me to cancel. But my broken body, limited $$, and limited mobility makes me feel like it would be cutting of my nose. It is really difficult to get to, never mind around, local stores.
I’ve read that he was a bit of a pain in the ass to work with, but I’ve always appreciated the results. So many great rolls. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is great, Tombstone, etc. I’ve not met too many people who mention The Salton Sea. That’s in my top 3 for his performances.
Easy, but then people will throw up their hands and say,“That’s not easy, how the fuck am I supposed to know that?”
pdftk input.pdf cat 1-endeast output output.pdf
You know that through man pages, tdlr or whatever. Then if you find yourself doing it a lot, you make a tiny script that makes the process something like
pdfr <input> <optional output>
I get the vim frustration. The first Linux distro I used shipped with a broken x-server and vi(m) (late 90s) as the editor, so it was definitely jumping in with both feet. It was Vim or Emacs, and Emacs seemed like more than I was willing to take on at the time. It’s kind of annoying how much other editors frustrate me now. I know a lot of people are OK with nano, or whatever editor, but every time I find myself not using vim to edit these days it freaking kills me.
I wish my grandparents had never emigrated from Norway.
For anyone who loves Vim, Vimwiki is freaking great. I’ve been using it for many years. I’m not sure if it’s still being updated anymore, and I’ve never been able to find a mailing list or anything along those lines though.
I’m losing my freaking mind over it. People, news, just going along like this is still business is usual. Real life Don’t Look Up.
But I’m going to bow out of this. You don’t seem capable of self reflection
Reading through this page, you certainly don’t seem wrong at all, but on the other hand, it may be a language issue.
Thanks for the recommendation. I’m getting it right now, I’ll come back to read your review after watching.
I really want to say something snarky, but in the end they are people and I hope they are safe and get the help they need to recover.
“Get a college degree and the world will be your oyster”
“Put in those extra hours/days/years, do more than the people around you, and it will payoff”
Same age, but shit’s just gotten worse every year for a good decade or so for me.
It’s such a dichotomy. Women get catcalled every day and feel uncomfortable and harassed. Understandable. The average man gets catcalled a handful of times in his life and cherishes those moments almost as much as their children’s births.
