  I dunno, that looks like the USA and their butter sucks, man. It’s not even yellow, and they sell it in “sticks”. I was so glad to find Kerrygold there.

  That’s decent stuff that I use on the regular.

  The electric car revolution is over.

  Ah yes, I forgot that the USA is the only country in the world, my mistake.

  Why would they want to “influence elections”?

  Sounds shady.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose a number, 1-5!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hard to say. It’s 1 or 3.

  2 has an annoying bulbous handle that upsets the balance, 5 is an utter nightmare of awful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the next stop on the authoritarianism express?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To answer your question:

  www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9qwez9zz7jo

  The Insurrection Act of 1807 allows the president to use active-duty military personnel to perform law-enforcement duties inside the US.

  Once invoked, troops could be tasked with a range of duties, from quelling civil unrest and enforcing court orders to arresting and detaining migrants.

  Because the Insurrection Act was written in broad terms, with little specific guidance on how and when the powers can be used, it gives presidents wide latitude in deciding when to mobilise military personnel for domestic operations.

  Time to bring in the army to oppress the citizenry. Hoo rah!

  They specifically mention this in the announcement stream and say that stuff is important for the same reason you do, so it’s all still in there, though they say they’ve also recorded new lines too. Will be interesting to hear!

  When they bury Starmer, do you think they’ll put him next to his beloved Thatcher?

  That way we could piss on two graves for the price of one! (all admission fees go to LGBTQ+ charities)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Keir Starmer does not believe trans women are women, No 10 says⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer does not believe transgender women are women, his official spokesman has said.

  Oh damn, this is huge. He’s officially admitting to being a Transphobic Bigot. Literally.

  What else in this ballpark would he like to admit to while he’s at it? Maybe he’s a Homophobe too? …What’s his stance on black people?

  Also, are transgender men, men? And if so, why is it one rule for women and another for men? Is he sexist too?

  On the basis of his admission of being a Bigot I would argue he is unfit to be leader of the Labour Party. I recall a Labour Prime Minister not too long ago getting angry at someone for being a Bigot… how times have changed…

  God I wish, liquorice is fantastic!

  Get yourself a mix bag of Dutch liquorice, with some of the sweet, salty, and bees wax coated stuff. Soooo good, and a proper chew feel too, none of the soft rubbish stuff <3

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you use your blinker in a car?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Indicators?

  Yes, only pillocks don’t use their indicators. They’re an essential method of communication between vehicles and for pedestrians, and an essential safety feature.

  I cannot stress this enough, people who don’t use their indicators are massive twats and shouldn’t be on the road.

  They’re a danger to themselves and everybody around them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was a British tourist trying to leave America. Then I was detained, shackled and sent to an immigration detention centre⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  By throwing your rubbish in a bin whilst in the USA, you are causing the city to not need to pay a litter picker to collect and throw your rubbish into a bin.

  I know I’m just being silly, and I know you’re not wrong, I’m just sayin. There’s a thousand ways one could look at almost any action and suggest ways in which it is “work” if we define it as causing someone else to not have to do a job or get paid for something.

  Oh, there’s precedent for everything that’s happening right now…

  I love how Americans need a literal road blocking bump to hit with their tyres to figure out when to stop (and yet because their cars are gigantic that’s overshooting anyway).

  I remember being so confused by the weird concrete stumps for ages when I lived there at first. It’s just not a thing here…

  So long as there’s an option to retain the normal experience, especially for those on older hardware that can’t run fancier stuff. Then it’s all good!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Opening Lemmy in the morning and seeing dozens of unread comments in your inbox makes you think: what the heck did I say yesterday?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean well, and I want to have hope for the future, but I’m depressed and have untreated ADHD and a desperate need for therapy, and I do worry that I’m letting all that influence how I talk to strangers online.

  I’m probably too harsh sometimes, or not harsh enough, or dumb, or stupid, etc, more often than I’d like.

  So yeah, I generally regret or worry over everything I say to everyone at some point or another. I suck xD But I’m too lonely to switch off and not talk to anyone entirely, so here we are.

  I agree, I don’t want my browser provider to collect any data on me at all, but if they absolutely must gather the absolute minimum system analytics stats or such they should NEVER pass it to a third party for ANY reason.

  You make a desktop browser application, that’s your job, to provide a portal to the world wide web, nothing more. Stay within your bounds and we’ll never have any problem.

  I don’t think it’s used as a verb, a Goon would perhaps hench? Even that feels like a stretch though.

  Hmm, I’m not sure what singular verb you’d use to describe a hired henchman/goon’s job…
