A friend in the UK called me first thing this morning to check on me. It meant the world. Please do check on your friends in the US, now and regularly. ❤️

It’s time to push for ranked choice voting, which will in turn enable third parties.
That’s not the wisest course of action here Drag. Having a gun makes you a target for more than just bigots. It’s a death sentence in some areas - people will pull on you just to steal it, or cops will notice it and gun you down without warning or reason. There are far more effective and safe things we can do to protect ourselves/dragself.
2 million registered PA voters did not vote.
3 hour wait to vote for Obama. Since then it’s been 20-30 minutes every time.
I knew it, I’m surrounded by Assholes!
Yeah well that’s just, like, your opinion man.
Something I never see mentioned is the risk of “brain drain”. If you tax the rich too heavily, there’s a possibility that they’ll just move to another country with lower taxes, taking their companies (and jobs) with them.
Yes, in fact I see one now.
I disagree - it feels like Lemmy is seeing the same kind of shills that 4chan saw in the last several elections. These bad actors are trying to sway dems to vote third party or not vote at all “in protest” across many small and large online spaces.
Can guys get a boner on purpose?
I think “nsfw” in itself is a good description - “not safe for work”. I would be embarrassed or reprimanded at work if I scrolled past pictures of gore, extreme violence, nudity, or sexually suggestive anime girls, so those should be marked nsfw.
Step 1. Get Friends.
That seems to be the hardest part. :(
Cooking. Let’s all just cook one big meal each week and split it among 6 other people, and receive 6 meals in return.
Absolutely I care, and I want all of the details and pictures. It brings me great joy to see my homies living exciting lives, and I’m thankful to be part of that. With children, especially - they feel like nieces and nephews and I am inherently invested in their wellbeing and success, even for long-distance friendships in which I’ve never met the kiddos.
I don’t have any family of my own, so my Will and estate is divided amongst my friends, and those with kids are allotted a bigger piece of the pie so they can put it towards their college or whatever when I die.
There’s plenty of diversity if you join boards focused on them, like LGBTQ communities. I think the defaults just lean excessively into the demographic you described.
I think it varies greatly. The trans communities, for instance, seem to tread younger and I get the sense that many posters are teenagers. Tech communities, on the other hand, seem 30s-40s.
