So from now on, news about Info Wars aren’t allowed here, right? Since that’s quite literally The Onion now!

You’re looking at the wrong conclusions tbh. That Trump has not lost 50%-90% of voters really tells you all you need to know. America is fucked if these people are genuinely allowed to vote…

Isolating yourself in an echo chamber and refusing to have anything to do with those who disagree with you isn’t healthy

Of course, but despite people saying this for years, 50%+ voted for Trump. Clearly the majority of US voters thinks it is healthy behavior to do this. After all, “Hate, the Echo Chamber” is essentially the Republican agenda nowadays.

Or turn on at least 4 braincells before going to vote. Sigh. He clearly can’t do fuck all, not even for his family.

Yeah this would 100% be reason for separation for me.

Because I mean, if you are mentally on a level where Donald Trump can appear like a valid choice to you over valid alternatives such as entirely leaving the US, then I got fuck all clue what I ought to expect from you in the future. You are clearly not mentally well. I might ask you to seek therapy once, but if you refuse I’m out.

Sidenote, his facebook post:

“God Bless America. God bless #45, 47.”

What is it with the general religious fucknuttery in the US? Do these people genuinely still think Santa Claus is real?

Such a shame that Democrats still try to play it by the democracy book, despite Republicans having fuck all interest in it.

Should have invited him, put him in front of the camera, then kept asking annoying questions while ignoring what Trump says, talking over him. Flash a giant LIAR on a screen in the background whenever he says something, maybe.

Ah, they’re all crap.

Came to Teams from Slack, some upsides, some downsides. It’s a corporate communication tool, I don’t use it because I think it’s beautiful and elegant, I use it because I get paid money to use it.

All four remaining players are very happy!

Over a million actually by now, and they got above 15 mil total.

Of course, but good luck getting those 5% of users that actually produce nearly 100% of the content to move over if their business model cannot work. And once those move, you know where all the people following them move.

Exactly. The design, the sign-up process, the colors, the formatting, it’s all very pre-Musk-Twitter.

Even the icon is reminiscent!

It’s as smooth a transition as you can make it, so no wonder people do it effortlessly.

Meanwhile in camp Mastodon: “Please pick a server” -> tab closed already

Because the mastodon evangelists are horrible.

Yeah that’s another thing, Mastodon is kinda nice, except for its userbase. :P

Because people I want to follow are on Bluesky?

(I mean, duh? Did you really need people to state that?!)

Porn doesn’t wreck your mind if you’re a sensible person?

What are we talking about here? Easily impressionable people with no frame of reference? They’re susceptible to everything. Well-adjusted people with prior information? They’re susceptible to neither.

It sounds like they actually control quite a lot.

Turns out, when you do something clearly not okay and then actively go and taunt the people who could sue you for it with it, they might just, you know, do that. Since you actually went and asked them about it.

Is that a requirement right now? If you marry after 25 you have to have your uterus removed by 30? Hence why he wanted to ban it?

Weird requirement.

Same, and honestly, that’s enough for now. It already cuts out a giant portion of the footprint and I got so many other things to worry about, I can work on finding replacement cheese that isn’t a joke later.

Yeah it’s the same when people say this about FFXIV, which does have an extensive money-shop for extra mounts/animations/skins/etc.

They’re pricey as hell, but at the same time the only thing you ever might feel pressured into getting are:

• Fantasia (character do-overs) after enough years because you feel like you’ve seen enough of this face and want another one and want to finally become a cat-girl like everybody else is! The game does however give you two for free, and we’re soon getting a third one, at least temporarily.
• Character boosts if your friends are being assholes and berate you for not skipping the story (seen it happen) and it starts to get to you, instead of what 99% of the community does which is the exact opposite and encouraging everyone to take their time however many many months that might be. 😅

Not a sensible comparison as they’re not both similar franchises. You could compare HP to Pokemon or Mario instead, or Wicked to Aladdin or Lion King.

We’re talking about the future

From the perspective of when the play got launched, we are already in the future. And it’s still massively popular. Your point?

Is Wicked as big as Harry Potter was?

Comparing just the stage plays? Definitely, it’s in fact orders of magnitude bigger.
