"In response, Trump lashed out on Truth Social, calling MSNBC a “threat to democracy”

As usual these dumb pieces of shit misspelled Fox news.

My stupid body after 36: none for you, you don't get to enjoy anything anymore!

Alcohol started giving me insomnia for some reason and weed started giving me panic attacks that feel like I'm dying even if it's like 95% CBD and just a sprinkle of THC bud. :/

Money is pretty much potential human energy. Much like your nuclear bomb example, no one would accept living with a neighbor that has a literal army in their backyard. The government wouldn't nor would anyone living near them. Yet having that much wealth is having that much "human potential energy" that could power an army. As we can already see with what the billionaires do, they inspire the labor of huge masses of people on their behalf to wreak havock on society. They buy entire media ecosystems to manipulate. No one should have that much power, it's literally dangerous for all of us.

Every package both is and isn't a bomb until you open it!

Gotta love the fucking selfish boomer...

My stepmother said in front of her daughter "I'll be dead, I don't care about stopping climate change at all. Not my problem."

So don't dare inconvenience the boomer, to hell with what happens to their kids... So gross...

I know it's not all boomers, but it sure is a lot of them.

"Buffett’s strategy focused on long-term investments in the stock market. He is known for advocating investing in a diversified portfolio of stocks, like those found in the S&P 500, and holding onto them for extended periods."

Yeah sorry bub, been doing that for a decade and my portfolio isn't tripling like yours did in a handful of years. At this rate I'll go from 20k to 25k in another 10 years not 20k to 1 mil... 85% of that 20k is my input as it is.

Old people: sorry, can't let you do that. We vote in overwhelming majorities for primary elections and every other "not sexy" election the young can't be bothered to vote in. You're getting another old feckless cunt that we choose.

"Coworker 4 - talking too much in general about any topic (they would just prefer I shut up tbh unless there is zero work)"

I am this person lol without knowing them at all I can say at least for this type of person I think the best thing to do is just be direct about work stuff, get to the point right away after the initial pleasantries of initiating the conversation. If they're anything like me they might actually dislike conversation for similar reasons that you feel anxious. I just don't have much to say other than strictly work related business and it stresses me out to be stuck in a "meaningless" conversation.

If coworker 1 really is "a bitch" then there isn't all that much you can do, just treat her similar to coworker 4 and just accept that she might be judging you for stupid reasons. That's more of a "her problem" than a you problem. As they say "you can't make everyone like you." but that doesn't have to mean there's anything "wrong" with you, some people just don't mesh well.

Not only is he not just some "thumbs up guy" he's "libertarian" president of Argentina Javier Gerardo Milei... Who is currently doing a bang up job of ruining his country too.

We live in the worst timeline. :/

As a previous Opening Arguments and Muller She Wrote fan don't do this to yourself.

All of these podcasts can be summarized here: cope cope cope cope cope cope cope cope cope. Eternal blind optimism.

Then reality happens: the scum get away with everything.

Every day these people find a new way for me to hate them with a fucking burning passion.

 

25 minute exposure of NGC 2264 taken with a seestar s50. Testing the new denoise function added in the most resent seestar firmware update.

No further post processing so colors seem to be a bit off as a result of the denoise feature, but otherwise an amazing result as most images from the seestar s50 contain a lot of RGB noise!

Hey Lemmy! Time to do some digging!

I was sent a link from a friend about some Totally Cool™ guy who has close ties to JD Vance: Curtis Yarvin. Anyone aware of this guy and his desires? I won't put the link in here as my last post was removed because of it, but a comment within the thread is copied below.

Apparently Japanese media covered the story as was posted to Reddit, but there doesn't seem to be too much talk of this in the US.

From a comment in the reddit discussion: “Curtis Yarvin is a far-right ‘intellectual’ that wants to end democracy and install what I can only really describe as cyberpunk feudalism. He’s suggested turning the United States into a patchwork of corporate fiefdoms ruled with absolute impunity by CEOs, as well as putting mandatory ankle monitors on all unemployed and poor people. This sounds like a joke, but I’m serious. JD Vance is not just a fan of him intellectually, but also a personal friend. As someone who has known about Yarvin for several years, it’s been really concerning seeing how he could potentially become a Rasputin-like figure in the event of a Trump victory. Beyond this, Yarvin has also spent many years advocating for what sounds eerily like Project 2025.”

For those familiar with Star Citizen lore, he apparently wants to turn the US into the Stanton system “lol” …
