When this happens in a developing country we laugh at their politics.

When it happens in America, no one bats an eye

Enshitification? .... at this point it's all dissolving into that putrid liquid dumpster juice.

And we laugh at the ancient Romans for flavoring their wine with lead or using lead products and slowly poisoning themselves.

Beautiful ... the Darwin Awards are now coming to your grocery store

And painted the whole room with a pretty green colored lead paint.

Are they just reviewing all the accusations they made about Democrats over the past few years and just using that as a template for what they want to do.

Weird to think what happens when you lose a site you visit on a regular basis. I can understand the whole instance going down but us users just get lost when things get turned off. There's no way to know what happened, why or when or if anything will return.

I had to resurrect my old lemmy.world account to figure out what happened. I guess we have to hang on to two or more unique instance accounts in case our main instance goes down.

Stay well guys and I totally appreciate the admins of lemmy.ca and all the work they do. I'll patiently wait and look forward to seeing it online again.

Always loved that easy way to identify DS9/Terok Nor and Empok Nor

And if you really don't want me to call you or call you back .... text, email or send me a message that says

CALL ME

That is the single most disgusting uninteresting uninformative and ugliest thing that anyone can text me. You can text me a dick pick, ransom demands, blackmail images, racist crap or gore pictures of something and I wouldn't complain and probably might even respond to you ... but if you just text me 'CALL ME', I'm blocking your number or contact and never answering anything from you again.

They've got nearly four more years left to completely screw something up.

They keep messing with things eventually they'll cause catastrophe

TIL Kids In The Hall doesn't take place on earth in Toronto, Ontario, Canada .... it takes place on an alien planet that is part of the Federation. This explains so much.

Seeing Jake as a fast talking cool cat with a pencil moustache and slick hair in the 1950s was one of many highlights

Or being able to hide an alien in plain sight and calling it a Chicken Lady

This is what I keep saying to my friends when we argue politics

We can no longer just say that Dumpster Don is an idiot

We can now say that the entire US is one giant collective idiot

The nation is dumb .... so is it any wonder that they have a dumb leader?

That slight tilt does seem to throw things out of balance ...

I agree but the problem is that there is a huge percentage of the population that use this dumb site as a way to collect and gather all their information about the world. The problem is not so much that fb changed, the problem is that so many people rely on it.

Loved Dangerfield .... in my mind's eye, his character is like a marker in time for me now ... are we dating ourselves?

Data is always beautiful if you cherry pick the data you want.

This is like judging how beautiful someone is by only looking at their hands.

I was a bit saddened at the thought that there could be a point in my life where I would have watched all of Star Trek ... but I'm realizing as I get older that my memory is fading. I sometimes rewatch some episodes of TNG, which I watched years ago and once enough time passes, it feels like watching them again for the first time. So my failing memory is making me happy to know that I'll probably be watching Star Trek for the rest of my life.
