No you indict a ham sandwich, you convict criminals.

You guys only got one isolated revolt last time, and remarkably anyone who had a gun illegally didn't fire it, and anyone who had them legally didn't fire until it was the last option. Hopefully it won't get out of hand if he loses again, and I feel a whole lot better that someone stable is in charge for the lead up to a potential transfer of power this time.

All that said, I don't have high hopes. Bo Burnham said it best: how is the best case scenario Joe Biden

The people don't need to be taken seriously, the issue does. Arguing over semantics isn't helpful unless it's "Legislating against assault rifles won't do anything because that's not a thing. We need to ..." And the words after the ellipsis can't be "..do nothing."

I like his automotive channel as well

Imagine being in hospice and your birthday still has the power to shut down a major world government.

Jimmy is a good man. He deserves that honour.

My partner gave the reply "No, we're just practicing", the lady looked horrified. You asked about a near stranger's sex life, lady. I don't know what she expected.

I didn't watch it, but my 11 and 12 year old watched it. Twice. My 11 year old doesn't watch things twice, but he thought it was that good. So knowing nothing about the movie, I think it's worth your kids' time.

Thanks for the details about the story, if they watch it again I may join them and discuss it after with them and see what they think about the commentary on systemic oppression and how it's dealt with.

I hear the best way to get the right answer on the internet is to say something untrue and have someone correct you, so I am gonna say that yes, the administrator of your instance can see what you are subscribed to, or at the very least can see what users in their instance are subscribed to. (Please correct me someone if I am wrong)

Cool video. I hadn't thought of that, but of course it makes sense!

Unrelated question for anyone out there: I'm using the Liftoff app, and this link only opens in the Liftoff app.. Is there a way to easily get it to open in the YouTube app instead? Making the video full screen doesn't quite work as it is.

Source? Last I heard they offered 10 Billion and Discord said no.

Sorry, maybe it's just because I'm using a new app for lemmy, but what's the link? All I get is an image.

If it's anything like Boost for Reddit was, it's unnoticeable. Every 20 or so posts you'll see an ad and just scroll past, no animations or sound. I think I recall seeing a bottom banner? Any other Boost users confirm? I really just ignored it so I can't recall.

My point is, ads were non-obstructive
