Wow. That does not look good.

Can we have some term limits, please?

This is part of the GOP strategy.

Senator Josh Hawley from Missouri has openly acknowledged that the GOP strategy is to make it so miserable for Democrats in red and purple states that they will move to blue states. That would, in turn, cement Republican power in the White House, Senate and thereby the Supreme Court.

Why anyone would vote for these Republican clowns is beyond my understanding.

Most surprisingly, evangelicals, who are devinely commanded to be good stewards and protectors of creation, seem to completely ignore environmental protection. Extremely unchristian.

There's a reason why it's called "work" and "free time." Most prefer free time to do whatever they actually want to do.

I think it's pretty unreal that everything that has happened in the wake of the 2020 election and January 6th and Roe and so much more has apparently only cemented people in their partisanship. Absolutely wild.

And we're way overdue for another patch or two.

Small government is allegedly still at part of the Republican platform at the state level. For a small government party, they sure do like to dictate what's going on in people's bedrooms.

Sounds like you didn't actually try the app. It's super fast and smooth. Lots of customization, great UI. I happily pay for that effort.

Sync will surely make the lemmy ecosystem more attractive and bring in a ton more people, which is a great thing for everyone here whether you use the app or not.

As California goes, so goes the nation. Conservatives don't like this.

If it wasn't for the high cost of living, I'd move to California as well. Still hope I'll make it there some day.

Looks like the motherland of fascism is moving back in time...

Not surprised with the new government.

Florida is different because so many older, more conservative retirees move to Florida. And they vote. If it wasn't for that, Florida would probably have been pretty solidly blue at this point.

On the other hand, that has opened up other states for Democrats, e.g. Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Trump supporters are happy to donate to his defense. They truly believe he's innocent, the election was stolen from him, and he's their hero and savior who will reestablish justice.

Does that mean there's only going to be a subscription based "pro" version?

I was a Pro user on reddit, but I'm not really interested in yet another subscription, even though I understand that may be financially attractive for you. I'd be happy to make a one-time purchase, though.

Jerboa is pretty good. Probably the smoothest I've tried. Liftoff is pretty good as well.

I'm waiting for Sync to come out for Lemmy and I'll jump back on that.

The only Republican mission is to prove that government is bad, so they'll do anything to keep it from ever working.
