Fuckin’ A right.
Fuckin’ A right.
Yep. When I got out of bed this morning I would not have predicted this would be the day I’d have respect or sympathy for Paris Hilton.
It’s still an example of the American Christian mentality, even if this example is in Australia. Like Trump supporters are examples of the Nazi mentality even though they aren’t actually–ok bad example there.
It’s this absurd country of “Christian” values, except not the part of caring for others, “fuck that socialism hippie shit, except for Russia, which is cool now because they meddle in our elections…
Yeah, they don’t like that be nice to others, love thy neighbor, turn the other cheek stuff anymore.
And that’s not just a quip: An evangelical leader is warning that conservative Christians are now rejecting the teachings of Jesus as “liberal talking points.”
This was part of my point the last time I brought it up. I figured abusing my power enough to pin a topic (then again when it happened again) would likely alert the right people.
Oddly the modlog is no longer showing me usernames, only “mod”. But this is the link I’ve used unless I’m going nuts somehow:
No this link: https://lemmy.ml/modlog/535853 Though it does come up in the other also if you filter it.
I haven’t reached out to admin yet - didn’t occur to me until it was suggested earlier and I’ve been multitasking. :)
Ok. I figured out how to remove you as a mod.
I don’t think I’ve been removed by another mod before - so maybe somehow this time it will stick? When I do it, it does seem to work, then a day or so later I notice I’m a mod again.
In any case, thank you!
Thank you I will try that!
Thank you I will try that!
Unless your fiancee is also a homophobic bigot as a central component to her personality, then she’s probably OK with it.
I’m now starting to wonder if it’s a bug, but kind of astounded that I am seemingly the only person impacted. I only see myself added once. However, I have not been able to get any response from @VerbFlow@lemmy.world
I don’t support banning memes or the news either, but they aren’t under attack currently.
But those 8 men deserve it! /s
Seriously though - I am doubtful we could meet these requirements to add an amendment stating the sky is observably blue in the current state of things in the US. It’s hard for me to imagine we’ll ever pass an amendment for any purpose ever again unless things change quite a lot.
A proposed amendment must pass a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress, or if two-thirds of the states petition Congress, a new constitutional convention can be called to consider amendments. In any event, three-fourths of the state legislatures must ratify the amendment for it to become a permanent part of the Constitution.

Schadenfreude intensifies…
I have servers on Digital Ocean and Linode and also one in my basement, and have had no problem. I do have all services behind NPM (not to suggest it’s a panacea) and use HTTPS/SSH for everything. (not to suggest HTTPS/SSH are either) My use case could be different than yours - my immediate family are my only consumers - but have been running the same services in those locations for a few years now without issue.
Woke is a social construct conservative people use.
My dude, Woke is a concept that the culture wars have stolen and mangled. It goes back over a hundred years.
And you won’t be surprised at all regarding who they stole it from.
How a Black activist watchword got co-opted in the culture war.

Edited to confess I don’t use it in the original context either. I use it like the article mentions near the end:
"People today who identify as woke see themselves as having been awakened to a new set of ideas, value systems, and knowledge”
I don’t actually use it out loud (primarily because of what conservatives have done to the word), but yeah, once you start looking behind the curtain, it’s hard to view it any other way but as an awakening.
I was too young to have to listen to their shit then though.
This one never really gets old anymore.
I could totally see that. Thanks again!
