That’s so heartbreaking. I can’t imagine the level of isolation it would feel to be a woman under Taliban rule.

I thought they were going to turn into Saddam Husseins.

After a republican called Puerto Rico an island of garbage.

I think if we got enough millennials together we could crowd source $20 to get Ted Danson nude. No more than that though.

Double negative confused me for a second and I was sad. Opposes the ban! Want gender affirming care available. Excellent.

I feel like there’s minimal overlap between the people who drive these trucks with these flags and the people on Lemmy…

Might not be askin in the right place. Or in the place where you’re gonna get a real answer.

When in doubt, I always assume people don’t really think that deeply about it. Their brain was probably like “Truck. Flag. Cool.”

Yet another unrealistic standard set for women’s bodies.

Oh good

Despite their joy, in seeing Diesel alive and apparently thriving as a want-to-be elk, they have no plans to try to capture him. “He’s out there doing what he’s raised to do,” Drewry told the television network.

The way the headline is worded makes me think it’s trying to spark outrage and debate against the woman suing.

But also boy did I learn my lesson about not judging Joe Shmoe vs Corporate after learning more about the McDonald’s hot coffee case.

I’m gonna withhold judgement and see where this ends up!

Why don’t company’s pay their CEOs in exposure and sense of pride? If it’s good enough for moderators and artists it should be good for CEOs.

Tells a story.

Racist murderer? Does that not sound like American cop material to you?

I colored a dollar store canvas at a brewery with my friend. When we were done we hung it on a nail sticking out of the brewery wall. It stayed up for over 6 months until one day I notice it’s not there. I’m ok with it, had fun seeing it there while it lasted. Went back last and week and saw they had just redecorated and moved it to the bathroom! What joy! It lives on!

I bet the bigger impact/microplastic culprit is the clothes themselves.

On behalf of Canada: sorry.

I have my pilots license. You can actually use a few hours of your required flight time on a [certified] flight simulator. They recognize the value of learning that way and sure is cheaper than renting the plane.

Oh my.

Don’t ask questions of your not ready for the answer.

When I see things like that I kind of assume there’s some addiction or mental health issues going on. It’s not typical behaviour for someone who’s well-socialized and obviously difficult to be around but I’d suspect that persons got much deeper issues and public shaming isn’t helping them.

Fun fact, the 5 stages was developed as a general pattern for people with terminal illnesses coming to terms with their own death, not for people grieving the death of those close to them.

I’m in canada. I have protesters outside of my work window every week protesting LGBT education in school. I put up a pride flag in my office window. They told me to take it down, citing our code of conduct but no specific clause.

The way they talked about it made it sound like I was expressing some kind of extreme political opinion that I should be having on my own time.

I was… surprised. And disappointed.

Embodiment of :3

I wonder about the effects of having a low grade constant stressor like that. Combine that with at-will employment and gum prevalence and it’s surprising anyone is able to feel secure and get healthy.

Half decade sounds longer than 5 years. Someone could have started highschool, and by the end of highschool be in a completely different price market than before. 5 years is way too quick for these things to change that much.

Yikes. What a weird, cruel thing for someone to do.

Everyone debating the outcomes but no one’s talking about the criteria the list is based on. What criteria they used has to be discussed before we can debate why we think it’s wrong or if a particular president should actually be here or there.

I got my pilots license in Canada. Even at the nonprofessional level the community is rife with unaddressed medical issues. I tried to do the right thing by disclosing to the regulating body and got my license suspended because of a fuck up on my aviation doctor’s side. I can’t even imagine the pressures for nondisclosure and keeping it private if your whole livelihood depended on it. Also pilots, they’re their own breed and the personality types already lean towards over confidence and risk taking. It’s a dangerous combination. I’m not sure what the fix is. Better social programs? Less black and white regulations about health? More investment in aviation doctors that focus on treatment and reintegration rather than just diagnoses that spell permanent doom for someone’s career?

I bought one of these saws. The guy at the store said “that’s a metal saw”. I said “yeh duh what else would saws be made out of.” I took it home and struggled immensely with sawing the wood trim I was using it on. It took me a solid SIX MONTHS to click in to what he meant when he said “it’s a metal saw.”

Ehh this one I’m not a big fan of. Do a more general like “under $35k no tax” but no tax on tips leaves out minimum and low wage workers who just so happen to not make tip income.

Am I missing something here?
