Turn your phone clockwise.

So help them vote. Volunteer with efforts to get out the youth vote. Push for universal mail in voting where you are, or at least early voting. Help get politicians and initiatives on the ballot that they actually care about.

Shaming and complaining about the demographic you want to reach accomplishes nothing.

Vancouver, BC in Canada did the same, though they actually fully banned foreign property purchasing. I'm guessing it's low hanging fruit that won't get much pushback within the country. Hopefully these are just first steps, in both cases.

Really wish fucking anything were being done in the US.

This is from The Nanny, but I don't know the episode. Those are the two main characters, though Fran is in a blond wig for some reason. It was made in the 90s and not in black and white, so this must have been a strange episode.

Oh! I found it, or at least this clip: https://youtu.be/82NuUC8WBko?si=30zJLoRGSBjtAnN7

Seriously! Apparently they try to claim ownership of you even after you leave now.

Thanks for keeping the bots out! I'm still successfully using Jerboa, btw.

The one that kills me is when the glue they use to close the box is stronger than the box itself, so you wind up just ripping it open.

That's what you get for trying to have a real life.

No, but seriously, as a parent who regularly gets texts and emails of crap that my kids want, teaching them to prune their links is next on my to-do list! It's annoying AF, but right now we're focused on the power of the "enter" button to add spaces between items on a list.

I am not the bro you're speaking to, but I am a parent. Dinner is sometimes at 5:15 and other days it's at 6:45. It just depends on everyone's schedules. So don't assume that a random bro on the internet knows when dinner is.

"The government" doesn't want to argue that. Some idiot politicians do.

This is why we don't let our kids play any sport that involves getting your head whacked on a regular basis.

This headline is the opposite of clickbait. The details are amazing!

"WIRED reported that, at one point, the convoy's main bus pulled over onto a highway shoulder and kicked out one of the passengers.

It was unclear why the man was ejected, but he was left stranded in Florence, South Carolina, without his wallet, according to details from a livestream of someone in contact with the man."

It's currently #10 in the Google Play store, under the "social" category. (First is TikTok.)

It's not even smudge free stainless? LMAO

Minneapolis should make public transit free for a few* months, to encourage folks to use that instead. Golden opportunity.

Interesting. When they defederated from .world and others I thought it was just a stop gap until better mod tools, etc could be made. Looks like they're still not able to create the space that they want in the fediverse, months later. That's really unfortunate, on a number of levels, but they need to do what's right for them. I have a few fediverse alts, some of which can interact with Beehaw and some which can't. It'll be a bummer to lose those communities entirely, but I get it.

"They're not going to care about the details..."

I think you solved your own conundrum. The judicial system could placate Trump and his fans at every turn, and they'll still whine and complain through ignorance and malfeasance. It doesn't matter. In the meantime, I would much rather see justice served through thorough, accurate, and fair application of the law. And that's what is happening here, in beautiful fashion.

Don't they do this every year? "Oh, no, we're going to do soooooo badly this holiday season!!1!1!" Only to have record profits, yet again. Set market expectations low then ✨✨dazzle✨✨ them. 🙄 Meanwhile we're all paying more for lower quality plastic.

Okay, but do you know how angry the average Facebooker is about the price of eggs? It's a thing that certain people are quite upset about. Of all the inflationary hits, for some reason eggs have really hit theses folks' funny bones.
