When they need you: they come over to your place, share a meal and a good time.

When you need them: You sit alone at home, not making any effort to reach out and not going to their house like they did yours, instead stewing in your own bitterness.

It’s always funny when these dense contrarians completely bowl over the point of the person they replied to and respond to a non-sequitur showing that they’re uninterested in anything resembling a conversation.

The onion was overshadowed because it stuck to an old media style and had a clunky adaptation to the internet. They’ve got good content now with things like Click Hole and some YouTube content but it was many many years of trying to be an online newspaper and nothing else. The saving grace of The Onion and why it’s able to come back as strong as it has been is that it’s the holy grail for comedy writers so it still gets the best writers in the business.

This is like a quintessential meme, what on earth do you think a meme is?

Peloton is designed for rich people. They don’t say it explicitly because thar ruins the illusion, but the bike is meant to be a status distinction. You may only own it if you’re eager to be seen as someone who spends too much money on an exercise bike.

Yeah we’re baffled about how kids get sucked into worshipping Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos, but I remember a brief time in my life when I thought Steve Jobs was the greatest and that he singlehandedly invented the iPhone with a rusty pair of pliers and gumption.

Not me, but it would be fun to live 3 times.

It’s surrealism. It’s in the name.

It’s crazy that Trump is being used as the harbinger of Christian nationlism. It’s ironically because he has no morals and will say/do anything to get himself elected.

They don’t make you smart or cure dementia, but used sparingly and at the right moment they can make you act at your best for a few hours.

Any trump supporter reading this will see this thread and know that the Democrats are delusional because the full context of the quote shows that it was not to be taken seriously and within seconds Trump not only dismissed it as a joke but called that liberals would take this quote out of context and run with it.

Which is exactly what is happening. Besides giving Republicans more reasons to stick their heads in the sand, what on earth is the point of discussing this? Trump himself called out that it’s just more good publicity for him.

Someone pointed out in another thread that it would make a lot of sense that this attack was for clout/reputation on the darkweb as a high profile advertisement for their DDOS business.

People like to throw around the meme “least idiotic political take on Lemmy”

This might be the most idiotic.

The fact that you have to say it depends and wait for clarification of which exact flavor of Linux version and problem it is is just chef’s kiss

And do you eat that spaghetti out of a bool?

If I recall, Tron was almost entirely practical effects despite its premise.

I mean, kind of. Socialist/the progressive left have a toehold in our government. Bernie sanders has done a shit ton to drag the Overton window towards the left (see healthcare for just one example) both in his run for president and his time as a senator passionately arguing in favor of leftism. Our country is designed not to build coalitions with anything but the two ruling parties. It’s a good thing though that there are people like AOC, who, while not as radical as Bernie and has some questionable positions, are able to become the new guard.

I hate that the government is full of deteriorated octogenarians. BUT Bernie Sanders is the last one that should leave.
