It will only get worse as time goes on. The heat we are seeing now has a lag time on the order of decades. So give it another 20 years and it will only get hotter.

Oof

I still use jerboa. Got the pop-up a few times. I will keep using it until the bitter end

Not being on time to a planned event. I want to be slightly early/on time. For reasons unbeknownst to me, when I say "we need to leave at 35 after to get there on time", the people I'm going with aren't ready until 50 after. Drives me absolutely bonkers.

All new Star Wars movies and tv shows

Exactly this

Good thing I dont use Windoze 11

No shit

It's a tech company that is burning itself to a ground. Hard to take your eyes off of a slow moving car crash.

No one should be above the law. Especially public officials such as the President. We should not set precedent to allow someone to get away with what he has done.

I would say the same about Clinton, Obama, or Biden, had they done the same. This is not about party politics or team sports.

That part was one of the biggest revelations to me. I had no idea Arizona had a for-profit jail system that is essentially pseudo-slavery.

All I want to know is when the church will start booting these guys to the curb and denouncing them.

Gemini has imposter syndrome real bad

I'm pledging $5/month each to mastodon.world and the lemmy devs. I recently quit drinking, so this is a drop in the bucket compared to what I used to spend monthly on alcohol.

I know this isn't politics or nation state news, but it is deeply troubling for all of us who live on planet Earth. Six standard deviations is mind boggling.

Mods, please remove this if you feel it isn't news worthy. I know it breaks rule 1, but wanted to share.

Statistically it is very unlikely this would happen given the votes for other Democrats down ticket. It would be like betting on an old horse to win a race and somehow winning.

Everyone should remember that Elon doesn't care about political parties. He could give a shit less about the right or the left. He's in it for the money.

He played the right, getting an idiot elected who would allow him to gut the agencies auditing his companies. Now when he's done with them and his base is upset with him for selling out, he's pivoting back and trying to appease them.

It has always been about the money. Fuck Elon Musk.

I went to a restaurant recently with my wife for our anniversary. Had great reviews on Google Maps above 4.5 stars. Yes I know this should not be the only indicator of a good experience, but the food sounded good and it was in a neighborhood we don't often go to. Something new.

When we got the bill, the server came to us and skipped past the food prices to the tip screen immediately. That should have been my red flag to stop and ask why she did that, but I didn't. I tipped 20%, then later found out that they already included that in the bill. So I tipped 20% on top of the total that already included 20%. Needless to say I won't be going back.

I was just asking a friend this last Friday. The party is led by out of touch boomers, backed by moneyed interests, and refuses to change. They'd rather not rock the boat or be the cause of a division in our society. Yet here we are, more divided than ever and growing by the day.

At least it wasn't by their hands?
