Exactly! I love how AI image generation can come up with funny surprises like that 🤣

I hope the hilarity never ends!

I use it for the hilarity!

I made a whole series of images representing the usual hair colors just for fun:

I have so much fun with images like this in Discord/Matrix and the occasional Lemmy post 🤣

OP doesn’t realize he’s an AI.

Because nothing says, “I should have children” than living under an overbearing autocratic government trying to control your life!

Stopped reading after this:

Take, for instance, the Democratic Party, whose immigration policy, at least for a large portion of the Biden presidency, has been to effectively open the southern border to all comers

What a load of bullshit! Border crossings went down under Biden earlier this year because of his aggressive enforcement efforts:

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/06/26/border-crossings-drop-biden-policy-00165055

Not only that but the article is implying that immigration through the southern border is where nearly all illegal immigrants come from. Most illegal immigration is from people who enter the country legally (from wherever) then overstay their visa.

The southern border is a problem for sure but the border policies of the Democrats are simply on par with the Republican policies (they both don’t accomplish much since the border is just too fucking huge!). Basically, there’s very little that can be done that hasn’t already been tried.

Even if you institute mass deportations the people will just come back because getting into the US is just too easy and it’s physically impossible to actually police the entire southern border let alone the entirety of the land and sea that borders the US.

Or the most obvious answer of all: Macs have a power button on the keyboard

Such a stupid thing to write about. Must be a really slow news day if they are writing about the location of the power button.

What it proved is that the super rich have too much power. A power that shouldn’t exist in a democratic society.

Right wing media has been given far too much leeway in spreading disinformation and misinformation. Every show, podcast, and news article that spreads easily disproven falsehoods should be prosecuted. Fuck “corrections”. If an organization has to issue a correction that should be all they’re allowed to say for at least a 24 hour period (basically, put them in timeout).

Basically, they need to be held to account for not doing due diligence on what they’re reporting as fact. Unverified claims? It’s simple: Don’t publish that. Don’t even bring it up as news at all until you feel safe defending your statements in a court of law.

We already have standards for defamation of individuals. What we need are standards of defamation of reality.

We can’t rely on the civil court system to protect society from total bullshit. It’s too expensive and there’s so many ways to spout dangerous bullshit without defaming anyone.

Bah! No Rebecca? No Camie?

I don’t believe he thinks that abstractly. Maybe his advisors will tell him as such and he’ll do it but I have my doubts.

He wants his followers to love and worship him. Not operate in a, “I scratch your back, you scratch mine” sort of way. He just wants the, “you scratch my back” part.

By pardoning them he’s sending a message that he’ll do something for them for free. That’s not how Trump operates. He’s going to want something immediately in return; power or money or both. The Jan 6th insurrectionists don’t have much of either.

No, it brings certainty: They’re not going to get it.

If they throw out the rule of law like this there’s no reason why anyone should follow the law at all. If Trump and his allies don’t have to follow the law why should anyone else?

If the only thing that motivates these people is violence that’s what they’ll get.

If being captured means a death sentence then there’s no reason to peacefully surrender. In fact, it is your human right to fight for your life in self defense.

If you make peaceful revolution impossible you make violent revolution inevitable. The billionaires should remember that all their wealth is built upon the trust the world has in the US’s stability. If that goes away then so does the majority of their wealth.

Wow, that sucks. There’s hot single women in my area.

Just need this one trick–that doctors hate–to hook up with them. They won’t tell you about it though.

I have a Giant Sulcata Tortoise. She’s almost 100lbs.

Super easy to care for. She mows the lawn to eat but St Augustine grass doesn’t have all the nutrition she needs so we supplement her diet every two days with some fresh lettuce, fruit, and tortoise pellets.

Right now our yard is full of pumpkins donated by our neighbors that she enjoys very much (her poops turned a bit orange, haha). Watching her eat them is a surprisingly satisfying and relaxing experience.

Her home is an old lawnmower shed that my father-in-law had lying around and she goes into it every night (we cut a tortoise-shaped hole in the front and put some “baggage flaps” over it to keep the heat in). Interestingly, we didn’t need to “train” her to go in there she just figured it out on day 1 and settled in the very first night.

She comes when she’s called and loves to come see us when we’re out in the yard (hoping for treats!). We often get the leftover produce from Publix that’s going to be thrown away and feed her that. She doesn’t care that the lettuce has gone all wilty or about damaged fruit so it’s better than sending it into the trash 👍

Now that Trump doesn’t need to get reelected I think conservative Christians are in for a very big surprise: He actually doesn’t give AF about them. In fact, he thinks they’re idiots (he’s said so in the past).

I seriously doubt he’s going to attempt to appease them much at all during his next administration because he doesn’t need them anymore. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if he completely throws them under the bus in any number of fashions.

I guarantee we’re going to get a lot of headlines next year similar to the woman who said, “he’s not hurting the right people!” This will include a whole lot of conservative Christians who thought Trump was going to institute their agenda but will instead totally screw them over.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he demands the taxation of churches so he can further line his pockets with more grift. He’ll say it’s necessary to pay off the debt or something like that then we’ll find out that the money is directly going into his and his allies pockets.
