I'm actually a big fan of the misinformation moderating they're doing on world. It's very Lemmy.ml of them in trying to maintain their political correctness.

Eh, if it's a hospital you just don't pay the bill. If it's an urgent care it's pretty cheap.

This is actually a criticism that was often levied at Trump and it's apt. Putting down a nebulous red line and then ignoring it even when the other party can't do the bare minimum of pretending to follow it results in everyone acknowledging your country is a joke. That said, we already knew this whole thing was a joke.

The best part of this game is that this conspiracy theory is incorrect. Fema killing Americans, illuminati, majestic 7, area 51, MIB: all real. Workplace persecution for a distrusted wounded war veteran?: crazed paranoia

More like everybody was progressive at the time, from Teddy(a progressive conservative) to Wilson to Hoover. In the end it pretty much just meant liberal. I'm comfortable being a socialist and explaining it from there.

Giraffes are Artiodactyla like cattle so they would be closer in minotaur style than the Perissodactyla centaur style. Two hoofed legs, human upper body, long neck and giraffe head.

Speaking of Perissodactyla, this guy essentially is a fantasy creature. He's the centaur she told you not to worry about.

Center-left in US sees a lesson in British election results (www.politico.com)
 

A center-left group in the U.S. sees a valuable lesson in the landslide victory of Britain’s Labour Party after nearly 15 years in the political wilderness.

The centrist Democrat think tank Third Way argues in a memo obtained Friday by POLITICO that Labour’s sweeping win shows that “centrism wins elections” and can undercut right-wing populism by appealing to the broadest segment of the population with a credible platform.

TIL sailing ships commonly moved around without wind by warping (en.m.wikipedia.org)
 

Warping is throwing an anchor either manually for a small ship or by rowing the anchor out and dropping it farther away for a larger ship. Then the ship would reel it to change position. Good for maneuvering in harbor. Etymologically related to "throwing" and essentially threading a needle across the sea.

Warp factor get you asses in the rowboat. Engage.

Modi loses ground in parliament, but his Hindu nationalist policies are here to stay (thehill.com)
 

For the first time since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party swept to power in 2014, the party did not secure a majority on its own in 2024 national election. But the prime minister’s coalition is still expected to run the country for another five years.

Modi’s allies generally support pro-Hindu legislation, but making new policies could be complicated by coalition politics and a slimmer majority.

Despite a setback, many of the Hindu nationalist policies he’s instituted over the last 10 years remain locked in place

Biden on hot mic: ‘Come-to-Jesus meeting’ with Netanyahu on the way (thehill.com)
 

President Biden told a Democratic lawmaker and members of his Cabinet after the State of the Union address that he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that they will need to have a “come-to-Jesus meeting.”

Biden’s comments, captured on a hot mic as he spoke with Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) on the floor of the House chamber, came after Bennet congratulated the commander in chief on his speech and pressed him to keep pressure on Netanyahu over increasing humanitarian issues in Gaza.
