There was another woman I think about sometimes who was very upset about maga hats and I thought she was overreacting. I also owe that woman an apology

Awww, I thought the template was just the ballet dancers so we could put a little Bovino in there

Time to have a rewatch

My partner showed me this a couple years ago. Now, we’ll be talking or I have a thought and the conclusion is “America” to which the follow-up is “want to put it on?”

It hits me harder each time I watch it especially how things have further eroded since then

Edit: I was curious and checked out the comments. They were surprisingly wholesome but I didn’t scroll too far. However one sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole and I found something that made me do a double take:

The text from that image reads

THE TWO PLATFORMS

Every RADICAL in Congress VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. Every RADICAL in the Pennsylvania Senate VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. STEVENS, FORNEY & CAMERON are for NEGRO SUFFRAGE; they are all Candidates for the UNITED STATES SENATE. NO RADICAL NEWSPAPER OPPOSES NEGRO SUFFRAGE GEARY said in a Speech, at Barrisburg, 11th of Angust, 1866-“THERE CAN BE NO POSSIBLE OBJECTION TO NEGRO SUFFRAGE”

It’s the writing style. If that is the type of material that one reads in their formative years it makes sense that it’s emerging again in the twilight years

Ps. I’m sorry I spent so much time on this it just struck me and I had to explore. Made me sick at some points. To be clear, I support everyone’s right to vote but the above quoted message was demonizing that sentiment. Also to be clear, Geary was a white man and won that election

I have a problem with this step

When I send it to QA the sample that I take to make sure it’s correct tends to be too big and throws off my recipe

I had the absolute fortune to make my way through there at the end of last year. It was so bizarre to me that for the most part people are left alone to follow the rules with no oversight

And for the most part I saw everyone behaving well and not doing anything stupid; except the group of people trying to take pictures of a bison who was clearly unhappy about how close they were getting. He was grazing and would walk away a couple steps and they would follow. The boi was swishing his tail and showing what I saw were “leave me the fuck alone” signs and I had to at least shout to the people to leave him alone and they were fucking idiots. I was HOPING that they got charged and had some sense knocked into them

My partner and I had had discussions previously about what we’d do if something like that was about to happen and the kiddo in the car. If it’s just us adults then we’ll stay and watch the carnage but we’ll take off if they’re with us

It’s the same sentiment with The Onion and Black Mirror. Having to take a step back because reality is too absurd

Yeah, I kinda liked a couple songs as a younger person but all of that has dried up and agreed:

and no, i won’t be listening to any kid rock ever again

I’ve seen leaf blowers in other videos being used against whatever it is they’re launching. That and waving their protest signs to blow the smoke away

I’m kinda high and read this and was thinking “conjugal” and was like “oh yeah sure, that makes sense.” But then I realized it made no sense at all. But I’m still 100% on board

Bigger yes, dumber no. It’s like saying dogs are dumber than cats. They’re just different and “smart” at different things. I don’t see packs of tracking cats going out on search and rescue missions

Awww I loved that! The horse was weirded out but mostly ok. His body language was calm and he followed her when she walked away, which is a sign it respects you and sees you as someone to trust and follow

Of course it was taken down. Was massively popular, too

I’ve noticed that trend, especially with high-volume posters

Some things are posted with substance and other times it’s just a link to a pic of a random artefact in a museum. Ok, it’s cool looking but is it significant? Not that that matters but if you’re going to post something at least include why. Other than “I hit random”

I love this guy. I haven’t watched the video yet, so here it is, and I’m going to go watch it now

Walter Masterson, check out his videos. He was at the Capitol on Jan 6th, he goes to maga rallies dressed as them to interview people. I wish some of the people he goes with were on YouTube, but I think they’re only on all the socials and I don’t use them

Also if you know of other channels like this can you please share? I’d really appreciate some recommendations of activists

Because grey is a fantastic color, and grey hair is just another color to dye it. Plenty of people dye their hair natural colors, too, not just to cover up greys

And plenty of people with grey/white hair enjoy and love it

Wait , WHAT?? that’s one of my favorite movies and I’ve seen it a million times. I know exactly what scene and pirate you’re referring to

From https://screenrant.com/hook-movie-glenn-close-cameo-pirate/

“Glenn Close isn’t the only famous face that can list a cameo in Hook on her résumé. Musicians David Crosby and Jimmy Buffett also appear as members of Hook’s crew, as does boxer and Rocky star Tony Burton. Elsewhere in Hook, stars including actress Carrie Fisher, director George Lucas and musician Phil Collins also make brief cameos.”

I had no idea!! I’ll have to give it another watch when I get home!

Here’s a long video of her using the broom to brush different parts of her body

https://youtu.be/3rX1dx8HpL0

She’s using it to reach parts of her body otherwise unreachable, even delicate places like under her tail and around her udder

Same here and it really upset me switching. I had used sync for a very long time on Reddit and was thrilled with the announcement it was coming to lemmy

I know the dev was renowned for disappearing but the lemmy app launch left a bad taste. I’m glad I didn’t put any money into that app but I truly hope he’s ok. I know he’s had to take breaks from development for mental health reasons

Summit was the closest I found to what I was familiar with. There’s only a couple small things I wish were different but overall it’s been great

I looked at the channel; this guy has found his niche and I very much approve. I listened to a little bit but I can’t really listen - my partner is asleep next to me. What I heard of the linked was fun and I’d like to enjoy more, but I’m trying not to laugh at these titles alone:

What are some other ones you like? I like having fun things like that to look into when I’m wondering if something is going on

Anecdote: A while ago my partner and I were sitting together in bed playing something when an unusually large jet flew right overhead. Which is also unusual. I’ve lived at my place a while and I know the air traffic patterns. There are a few military bases around and the only thing that flies close to me that I can hear are helicopters (side story, I saw 5-6 Chinooks flying all together once and I was so fucking thrilled)

I used flightradar24 to find what the hell just rattled my home apart; it was a MASSIVE jet, a c5 super Galaxy . It passed over the way my window faces so I was able to see it and holy fuck was I awestruck. I’ve lived somewhere else near a base and routinely had smaller cargo planes pass a few thousand to hundreds of feet over me. Those were still impressive. But this will probably be the biggest plane I see in flight and it was incredible

I have seen the Spruce Goose though! It wasn’t in flight, just in a museum
