Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was “Oh no, not again.”

Yes, but line go up fast enough?

I would agree if it weren’t painfully obvious the Russian elections that brought put in in weren’t heavily influenced by putin-run domestic terrorism and election fraud.

Wait, actually, it still is a good comparison.

Carry on.

Personally I’m a huge fan of bouncing a ball off a couple of sticks, but you like what you like, eh?

I mean, half of my hammers have had their handles remade with whatever hardwood was closest. So I’m gonna go with those.

However, the most complex thing that I can repair with sourced parts would be either my truck, or my truck. I’ve had to fix it with “close enough” parts before, and I will fix it until the frame rusts (which given Northern states and salted roads probably won’t be more than a few more years)

There’s a smattering of electronics that I’ve seen mentioned multiple times as well.

One thing that is theoretically repairable, but is hard to find parts for, my washing machine. It’s a old 50s model with a lever to engage the motor, a roller on top to squeeze water out, and a simple steel gear system to drive everything. I should be able to open it up with a crescent wrench and flat head screwdriver, but I doubt I will ever be able to find ready-made parts (I have looked briefly when I thought I had a problem with it that sorted itself) but I might be able to bodge some things together if needed.

Why would you give water to a country that has threatened to invade you in recent months?

And the Internet didn’t exist back than in the sense that there was no real yt, twitter or Facebook yet.

Damn, what the fuck was I using to talk to random people about rc stuff and music and shit? CLEARLY it wasn’t the internet, as that didn’t exist before facebook and youtube blessed the world with their presence.

Gladaed, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I love how when I point out it’s owned by a nazi, people rush in to defend their use of twitter and most usually it’s some form of “it’s the best for what it is/it has a huge user base” and me responding with a picture of musk doing the ol’ Hitler Salute saying “okay but you’re supporting this guy, and if you sit at a table with 10 nazis…” usually results in being blocked, people simply ignoring me, or saying something dismissive.

Landlords province nothing to society, they are leeches who profit off others hard work simply because they “own the property” the worker lives on and takes care of.

Save a tree, axe a landlord.

Is Switzerland full of sexist people who think “someday I’LL be rich so I don’t want to tax MYSELF more, hypothetically maybe in the distant future”?

Understandable.

It’s a fairly middle-of-the-road, while being catchy and therefore played all over the place.

I’ve felt similar about a lot of popular songs in recent years. They just feel bland, but some parts still get stuck in my head every so often.

I lost my grandmother and my sister is currently in treatment, both my parents are showing symptoms but don’t have money for Healthcare and refuse to go into medical debt. I myself am sitting on top of a handful of symptoms I’m willfully ignoring hoping they’ll go away.

It is a heartwarming post.

Just seems like a weird place to be negative.

I saw a post asking the same thing the day I joined lemmy dot world with my first account.

That was a couple years ago now. I think I’m on my third instance?

If it isn’t proof they target children, I don’t know what is.

Microtransctions prove they should be illegal every time I read any article about them

To me it’s felt more like “look at me I’m so unique”

Lmao 3 days is “arisen from the dead” if you’re terminally online I guess, and honestly I have no idea if I’ve ever commented on your shit before.

Personally I’m just confused as to how you construed my comment as some kind of personal attack?

terminally online…

One man’s terrorist is another man’s war hero/freedom fighter.

Also I would absolutely expect to read this exact article with a picture of a 10 year old girl whose “terrorist plot” included drawing a rainbow in school in a letter asking Russian officials to stop trying to decimate the Russian population through conscription.

“are corporations whose sole purpose is to extract as much money from the masses as possible with no thoughts to anything else up to and including destroying the house it occupies in order to maximize profits to blame for the world around us? Or is it those dirty fucking people with all their bad gross nasty purchasing of the things the corporation shoves down their throats?”

I’m sorry but did a CEO write this?

“THIS IS THE FUTURE UNDER SOCIALISM!!!”

literally a picture of the current world under capitalism, usually in the same country or one of similar quality of living
