The accusations are leveled at all social media.

I always see these news of proposals. Wake me up when these proposals are have actually been legislated.

Chinese communists certainly deny the Uyghur genocide.

Squid Game really is true about its message.

I am actually getting tired of these rhetorical questions written as headlines. Just say what you want to say!

You know, if what everything Midas touches turns to gold because he wants to have as much wealth as possible, then eventually the value of gold diminishes and become worthless because there is too much gold circulating. He would have just crashed the economy!

Vivek Ramaswamy quit the Trump team shortly after not being given any influential positions.

Christ, I hate respectability politics. Like, it is obvious from the get-go that Trump and MAGA will never see poc minorities as humans, but as disposable tools.

Twenty years ago when the Republican party was at least more tolerable that I understand if any poc's and other minorities vote for the party (before 9/11, Muslims were pro-Bush). 2000s Republicans branded themselves as pro-business, and many immigrants who tend to be entrepreneurial got on board with that. Now that the party morphed into MAGA, poc's who support the party are just playing the stupid game of "look at me, I am one of the good ones", and then act surprised when fascists throw them under the bus. Then, fascists walk on their bodies on the bloody road for their demented quest for power.

I'd be an anarchist, but I think anarchism would only work if the world is far more connected than we are today. Anarchist communities developed organically because their environments are close to each other, facilitating cultural exchange and then evolving into a converging culture where people in the communities eventually "think alike". It is like with Fremens in Dune. The entire ethnic group inhabit the entire planet, but their lines of communications are pretty reliable and fast, so in that sense the world of Fremen is "small", allowing for an organic development of an anarchist culture by themselves.

As expected, tankies came out in drove to whitewash Uyghur genocide 😂

There are far too many complaints and eyewitness to hide the grievances from the Uyghurs and CCP's mistreatment of them.

That's why in spite of protests against Trump, we should not forget the true power behind the throne, the ones who actually pull the strings. Trump is only the patsi. This isn't fascism in the traditional sense where one man runs the show, it is the faceless oligarchs who do.

I think that's why it is crucial to also include the anti-oligarchy message alongside the "no kings" messaging.

According to Bloomberg, names like Mark Zuckerberg, Safra Catz, and Jamie Dimon all dumped massive blocks of stock while prices were still high. By the time Trump rolled out new tariffs on April 2, tech stocks had already started bleeding. Every one of those early sellers dodged a bullet, and the timing is loud as hell.

Executives sold billions as Trump’s tariffs loomed

The first quarter wasn’t quiet. Trump’s team hinted at sweeping tariffs leading up to April 2, a day he branded as “Liberation Day.” That threat shook investors. By the time the announcement dropped, billions had already been erased from global markets. The tech world felt it the hardest. Elon Musk reportedly lost $129 billion this year as stocks tied to phones, chips, and software kept slipping. A few billionaires are already buying the dip, but plenty have already made their exit.

 

There is more to life you know? When will liberals learn.

Edit: I changed the title so that people will understand what I am getting at. It is important to realise that economic anxiety trumps other concerns, especially in the growing wealth inequality and the overt shows of oligarchic rule. As Franklin Roosevelt said: People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.

 

As everyone knows, Reddit is cannibalising itself and the longer time goes on, the users will have deleted their accounts and/or migrated to somewhere else, or they will simply forget about their accounts and log-in details.

 

I wasn't fully convinced before that Putin has Trump in his pocket, but after that stunt, I am convinced that he is under Putin's thumb. Trump and co. could have had marching orders from Putin to do exactly that. Also, this is something that Putin have done and would do, publicly humiliating someone on live TV.

 

Why would they want to win anyway? When they are already winning from so much corporate donations???!!!

 
 

And unfortunately lemmy.ml is getting more online traffic recently.

 

I saw plenty of kintsugi kits available in my area (to those who do not know what kintsugi is, it is the art of fixing broken ceramic/pottery items using lacquer). However, I do not know if the quality is good for the price presented by these shops. Could anyone knowledgeable or experienced in kintsugi give some tips? I'd appreciate any help and thank you in advance.

 

I got hyped by the TV series so I will play the game for the first time (yes, I know, it took this long). I usually prefer to buy GOG version of a game but I saw the rating of FO4 GOG at 3.9/5. Why is that? I have read somewhere that there is technical issue of some sort which includes modding for GOG version? I expected higher gamer rating for FO4 in GOG but a lower rating typically indicates for me some genuine issues.

Edit: also the GOG Version says it does not include the Creation Club. What is it and is it in some way better than using Nexus mods?

 

Ignoring the lack of updates if the game is buggy, games back then were also more focused on quality and make gamers replay the game with unlockable features based on skills, not money. I can't count the number of times I played Metal Gear Solid games over and over to unlock new features playing the hardest difficulty and with handicap features, and also to find Easter eggs. Speaking of Easter eggs, you'd lose a number of hours exploring every nook and cranny finding them!

 

I was watching a video on Willem Dafoe on his iconic roles, and his passion to craft and life, and positivity, exudes from him immensely. In that video, I am surprised he remembers from which of his movies the lines came from. It made me love him more as an actor because he loves life and his job.

But then during the interview, I remembered too when I watched Kevin Spacey's interview before, admiring him and it turned out he is a creep. I was telling to myself about Willem Dafoe "please don't be a creep, please don't be a creep."

Willem seems like a genuinely nice guy though but I hope I don't get proven wrong!
