Uh… yeah, they get washed. Not frequently enough for this to be wrong, but still, they do get washed.

Oh just go fuck yourself.

The monsters who want us all dead might not take all three branches…! Maybe…!

“Next time”

Good chance there isn’t going to be a next time, dude. It’s hard not sounding hyperbolic when saying things like “its the end of the world” but the next four years were CRITICAL to climate change, and we’ve voted to pour even more gas all over it. We don’t even have violent resistance to fall back on. The ‘progressives’ who stayed home this election because they couldnt hold their nose and vote for harris? Have damned us all. They’re just as much to blame for whats about to happen as the pathetic campaign harris was running.

It doesn’t matter if we’re fracturing the left. There was never any unity there in the first place.

I really wish any of this mattered.

know any countries that need database developers…?

I really wish this mattered.

Fox polling is actually extremely reputable. Go figure.

Trying not to conclude this is over but… man. This is looking really over.

We have to take the regulation we can get, okay? Not everyone can have legal systems that “make sense” like you get in them skandinavyvian hellholes. Catch me dead in a country where you can just assume the tap water is potable…

Cyberpunk dystopia at least has a good aesthetic…

I would absolutely advise talking to a doctor about this. That very much sounds like an allergy, and although there are many meds that may help, none of us online can safely advise them for you, you really do need a prescriber with access to your medical records/bloodwork for that.

As far as first steps go, regularly taking OTC allergy meds and developing a daily cleaning schedule + filters for the bedroom + keeping your dog off the bed at the very least, and ideally out of the bedroom entirely, will help. Also frequently bathing your dog can help keep the dander down.

Pretty much this. How many artists did you follow on, say, reddit? There were so few on there, and those that were there mainly linked to alternate social media and just used reddit to get engagement. Lemmy is probably the most approachable activitypub interface (we all remember trying to find the damn content on mastadon/bluesky…) and it’s just not big or established enough to be worth trusting. Hopefully that will start changing soon as more people hop over from the myriad other sites, we seem to be past the critical point for new users, but it just takes time.

If it converts a single R voter, it’ll have a bigger positive impact on the election than either of us will.

TL;DW:

“Even on this issue, donald trump and his rightwing friends are worse.”

God I hope this is satire.

That should be upsetting but man that’s weirdly cute. I want a crab raccoon!

I’ll say. Us little specialties are still safe for now (big data in my case) but we’re probably the first to go once these models get just a bit better. Not fun stuff.

I can personally attest that no, some people do in fact want that.
