  • I am not apologizing genocide, I am simply criticising people that voted for Genocide + More by not going to vote at all.

    The morally right choice was to reduce harm as much as possible, and that was only viable if voting with Kamala. By otherwise not voting or going independent (In a place like U.S. where an independent vote is basically a waste), you’re just letting the fascism push more.

    But again, these people can at least sleep easier at night knowing they didn’t vote for anyone doing genocide. They simply facilitated genocide + everything bad to seep through and win.

    Trying to only blame the dems for the civic duty failure of 15 million people is insane in my opinion. In other countries you just vote with the candidate you like the most, even if they won’t see eye to eye with you on some issues, it’s not some “oh I will only vote if these candidates win me over!”. You either vote because you agree with someone ideologically, or you vote because there’s Hitler on the ballot and Jesus Christ you do not want Hitler to win, even if the candidate you voted for will only give Israel more weapons. Otherwise you let Hitler win and now there are two genocides occuring instead of just one.


  • I will get mad at the 15 million stay-at-home non-voters due to a single-issue before i consider getting mad at the Dems for not caressing these people on their single-issue.

    I will get mad at the 15 million who never learned of the phrase “Lesser of two evils”, who thought that by not voting they are making some sort of brave statement on morals.

    Suck it up, there were 2 choices: Genocide, with high chance of progress away from Genocide Genocide with bonus destruction, and no chance of steering away from any of it

    It’s literally the trolley problem, and people that didn’t vote just didn’t pull the lever and have let mass destruction happen.


  • Since when are democrats the ones pushing abortion bans? Since when are they the ones wanting to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord? Since when are blue states the ones banning books that contain any mention of queer people?

    From my knowledge blue states have been doing anything but those things. It’s red states that are doing all sorts of shady shit, and it’s Trump literally saying he will: -Withdraw the U.S. from the Climate Accord -Appoint RFK as head of medicine -Get rid of education department -Withdraw spending in Ukraine and talk to his lover Putin -Increase tariffs on EU which in turn will just hurt U.S. economy

    you can blabber all day about how democrats are doing X Y Z wrong, but Trump is doing all of that PLUS more and way worse. No one likes this man, not even his own party members.

    But I guess the best way to deal with a truck about to hit you is to close your eyes and hope for the best


  • Your bloody avoidance for voting anyone has led not only to Gaza getting flattened, but also women’s rights, lgbt rights, any form of medical care, Ukraine, and the climate.

    The blood is on your fucking hands now. At least Kamala would have seen reason and you could probably have talked to her/her party about Israel.

    Good luck with fucking ignorant Trump, who won’t even listen when a woman says no to him.

    But thank God you didn’t vote for anyone doing genocide! I will feel so relieved you did that when Russia has a border with my fucking country


  • The difference is that Biden has not once come out to say “i will help neyyanahu flatten Gaza” and from what I’ve read has been criticising him (to the best of his old man abilities).

    It sucks that U.S. kept sending weapons to Israel for one reason or another, but the key difference here is that with a democratic president you had a higher chance of getting thru.

    Good luck getting Trump to listen to anything at all. And I guess good job for letting Trump take the president seat, not only will he help flatten Gaza (which Biden seemingly was doing anyway), but will also flatten women’s rights in the U.S., will flatten healthcare and education, will flatten any climate change progress, and will let Russia flatten Ukraine. An astounding failure for the entire world, just because your only issue was “b-but think of Gaza!”

    I hope you’re happy with your moral high ground because you decided to not vote for Genocide Kamala and instead let Destroy Everyone Trump win.






  • You can probably extrapolate from “if it exists, there is porn of it (no exceptions)”.

    If there is porn of something, the most likely reason is that someone has a fetish for it.

    If the person making the porn doesn’t have a fetish for said thing, then they’re making it for an existing market of people.

    QED, you can say “if it exists, someone has a fetish for it”

    P.S: What if there isn’t porn of something? Rule 35 states that if it doesn’t exist, it will be made.





  • Assuming OOP does infact just microwave poptarts and relies on other ready-mades, I don’t think they have all the necessary equipment for baking.

    I just think it’s a tougher place to start in because while you get exact measurements, there’s more nuance and less room for improvising.

    I tried baking something (pigs in blankets) for the first time after having cooked for years. If you are not fully prepared for every micro-disaster that can strike during dough making, your life will be hell. Cooking pasta only has the prerequisite of knowing how to boil water, and reading the time for how much to boil the noodles.

    You can follow the instructions on bread, quantities and time to bake, and yet there’s still stuff you have to account for and know from experience.


  • Baking is the worst place to start for a beginner, because it reauires more precision in ingredient quantity and technique. There’s little room for error.

    Whereas with cooking a simple dish like pasta or rice, you have more leeway with quantities and cooking times and preparation. And wayy more room for error. You can easily experiment with more/less of ingredients because it won’t affect the overall dish and flavour much.

    Whereas with baking, dough for example is hell. You need an almost astronomical precision unless you want to glue your entire kitchen, or make it too runny, or too floury. Baking also becomes more difficult wihout measurement devices, whereas with cooking trusting something loose like a cup or just eyeballing isn’t catastrophic.


  • scrolling in the comment section of this news article, i’ve only seen people either being concerner/shocked, and some sarcastically talking about recycling or something. Nothing about masturbation.

    And if your criticism of lemmy is that it’s being reddit with elitism, then why try to gatekeep the way people are going to react to an article on c/science? Are we all supposed to have degrees in chemistry or biology before making a comment?

    Believe it or not people take heavy news a million different ways and react differently. People ending up making a masturbation joke after discussing microplastics in testicles (i assume this is what happened) harm nothing and no one.


  • i see, makes sense. Its been a long time since i played HK, but you can also increase charm slots.

    Also you’re not supposed to be able to use all of them at once, you have to change based on situation (although you can have one charm over thr limit at the cost of double damage received)

    good luck with your custom map search though, Hollow Knight is a very good game

    counterpoints:

    This would only hold up if the person is using male/female and not man/female

    And assuming this still holds up, why not go with male/woman? The type of people to use this shouldn’t be bothered, i mean thry throw the term “alpha male” all the time

    Oh wait, i think the solution is to just use man/woman unless you’re in a very biological discussion
