That’s the classic, yeah. If you catch me singing the Bubble Bobble tune in the shower it’s because I’m deep in some past trauma.

This works, but can develop into a habit really quickly, and now you’ve got a new verbal tic.

The part that gets me is that syntactically and lexically it makes perfect sense, so you actually have to think about it before realizing it’s totally worthless. The old signals of quality and care in communication are meaningless.

People with poor critical thinking skills are going to be fucking lost at sea this coming decade. They have no tools to tell what’s worth believing anymore.

Bribery.

Have you considered giving all that profit to one bald man, though? Think of what you’re missing out on! 🚀

5 weeks seems like a good minimum to shoot for, yeah. Even with technically “unlimited” vacation, I tended to take 1 week a quarter, 2 in the summer, and then whatever Christmas to New Year’s is. I wish I could take more in the Summer of course, but it is what it is.

This has got to be fake, or engagement bait, right?

I guess I should read the article

I would rather bother them very loudly.

Have there been consequences for the United States’ or Canada’s genocides against Indigenous peoples? Not really.

People can just get away with things unless you make them pay for it.

EDIT case in point, 200 years from now we could be celebrating the jewel of democracy Israel, while “acknowledging its troubled past” but you’re still doing this over the bones of the people your predecessors slaughtered. I’m not even saying it wouldn’t be genuine, like people today in the US and Canada bemoan the actions of previous colonizers. But the fact of what happened remains immutable. The slaughter happened, and the people who committed it accomplished their aims. They got away with it.

Even most of the conservative politicians in the US seemed to take this approach, until he started winning (read also: liberal politicians failed to counter his right-wing populism).

What’s your point with this? That the allies were right to bomb civilians? That we can have a little genocide, as a treat?

how do I boost on lemmy

Oh wait I’m remembering the airplane story now. Yeah, I he’s like all the other rich fucks.

Look if people get upset about it enough to rattle their leaders into action, I’ll take it.

I mean I have no idea more than anyone, but for some reason, he doesn’t strike me as the type. As much as I dislike the man and thing he’s a boil on humanity, I don’t think he’s that kind of creep.

But I am not basing this on anything other than my own gut.

That’s illegal!
