  Yeah sure, they’ll probably also have typed all posts on Lemmy, including those that have not been posted yet.

  What if the monkeys evolve to higher intelligence as time passes by?

  Still puzzles me why everybody’s still shopping at Amazon.

  What I didn’t see in the reactions yet is that a lot of Americans do not want any government involvement at all. Save for things that are supposedly written down in the Bible. The Republican party is providing just that, anti-establishment, anti-intellectual and don’t forget: anti-minority. Just people being tough and dare to support the party who will turn the clock back to when times were perceived to be better. Same sentiment is present in Europe by the way, like it was a century ago.

  'Cause it’s a billboard. The tiny ones tend to get overlooked.

  What struck me most in this early footage is that everyone in it has definitely passed away by now. With later films you usually can’t be sure. Makes you realise even more that the available time we have on this planet is quite limited.

  Why is a sandwich pizza not a thing already? Like a calzone, but without folding anything.

  We can see that 2. is longer than 1.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Maybe (HBO) Max Just Isn’t Worth It⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re still fairly cheap in Europe and I really looked forward on getting to see their content a couple of years back, but now it looks like most of it could just as easily be shown on another platform like Disney or Netflix. There’s no real depth in most of it. I’ll keep hanging on watching shows like Insecure, but I wonder whether I’ll keep the account in future.

  No expert, but my take on this is that medicines work because they resemble the chemicals your body already makes itself. Better not interfere with a finely balanced immune system in which pain is an essential signal for the body to cope with infections and injuries. It might be more comforting to take a pill against something but I’m afraid it messes up the immune system too much, better to avoid that as much as possible. Works fine for me.

  A good day day day.

  What’s confusing about Mastodon? Just join a random server and you can find everyone else on any other server. (Or are these called ‘instances’? I don’t know or care, fact is it works without problems.)

  Rainbow weather.

  I once visited a wind turbine assembly hall where they had a huge turbine standing right outside, casting blade shadows every few seconds. They said you stop noticing them after the third day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🤡 Not in my backyard⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Wind turbines are one of the few good things we have going for us. To stop us from killing ourselves. I could elaborate on this but what’s the point when you don’t already know this.
