I agree with the article. Gen Z are more open to sharing their life with the world. I wouldn't say early generations just swallowed the bullshit. They just didn't have a platform to express it to the masses. In the 70s or 80s if you got fired, maybe you reacted the same way, demanding a reason and expressing your frustration. But the only people who witnessed that, were the ones in the room and later on your buddies when you told them the story.

My mother-in-law once said "You know Trump reads his bible every day!"

Completely flabbergasted I said, "How do you know that?? Where did you hear that from? I've never heard any report or mention of that. In fact, when asked what his favorite bible verse was, he couldn't even name one!"

"That's just what they want you to see. They don't tell you the truth."

iPhones. Love my Pixel and I don't care how much my co-workers bitch about bubble colors.

If an advanced civilization developed the technology for interstellar travel, and came all this way to earth, I suspect one of 2 things will happen. Either their tech is so advanced that we won't even detect them, or they show up ready to communicate or destroy us.

I can't see them clumsily flying around, getting seen and whooshing off like some dumb teenagers playing ding-dong-ditch.

Also, a lot of dumbasses probably went to the store and bought a different product... made by the same company.

That's pretty easy to imagine based solely on statistical data.

"Looks like you're trying to make toast? I'm here to help! What kind of toast are you trying to make?.... and did you know toast originated in the early days of...."

Exactly this. Relay was a great app and I will miss it and Reddit. I would love for Dbrady to start fresh with Relay for Lemmy but I imagine that is quite a bit of work and maybe he just doesn't feel up to it. I wish him the best no matter what happens!

It's an alleged superconducting material that will work at room temperature.

I'll never understand the point of adding "nobody" on memes. It's just completely unnecessary for the joke.

As an Eagle Scout & leader in my Son's Boy Scout troop, an avid hiker, backpacker and general outdoor enthusiast... this is incredibly upsetting. This type of vandalism can't be undone. I hope they find them and throw a rock...I mean the book at them. Or both.

Part of the Scout Outdoor Code is "...to be considerate in the outdoors." which means treat the land and other land users with respect and follow the principles of outdoor ethics for all outdoor activities.

I read a story on Reddit one time that some of you probably remember.

"Today you. Tomorrow me."

I think about that often and try to be a generally helpful and kind person to anyone in need. I guess that's a mantra that I swear by.

I think a lot of people are taking this very literally and some are claiming I'm misleading people. For context, the top portion of the picture did not happen exactly like that. They each individually said that Pence did the right thing by essentially choosing the constitution and his oath of office over Trumps request that he violate it. There was no hand raising for that question. The second half of the image was when they were asked if they would raise their hands to indicate if they would support Trump if he were the nominee. I cropped out Asa Hutchison and Chris Christie who did not raise their hands. I'm getting some flack for that but whatever... It's a meme. I'm not a reputable news source or a reporter. I just made this because I thought it was ridiculous.

They blame Android for that for some reason. Makes no sense.

A good pocket knife or multi-tool like a Letherman or Gerber. I always have a pocket knife on me and a multi-tool in my car. Either one gets used pretty much daily.

Knife: https://www.amazon.com/... (there is a mini version of this if you like/need a smaller knife)

Multitool: https://www.amazon.com/...

Me either! Now I feel like I'm getting in on the ground floor of something big.

To be honest, this is a pretty dumb meme. Those last 2 boxes could be labeled almost anything. Dark matter, dark energy, gravitons, extra terrestrial life, etc.

But hey, at least you tried!....I guess.

Who's is making assumptions? There are 3 representatives. 2 of them are black and 1 was white. The 2 black men were expelled and the white woman was not. Those are facts not assumptions.

From the article: "Ultimately, Johnson, who is white, narrowly avoided expulsion while Pearson and Jones were booted by the predominantly white GOP caucus."
