And all that while Tesla somehow misplaces $1.4B 🤷♂️
- Comment on We are so cooked 2 days ago:
Probably the same reason we had 40+ tornadoes, huge hailstorms, floods, and drought-enabled wildfires in six adjacent states within 48 hours. Anthropogenic climate change is real, whether you believe in it or not.

The tolerance would be greater than the difference anyway.
- Comment on Despite constitutional limit, Trump says he's seeking a way to serve 3rd presidential term 4 days ago:
I’ve seen that sentiment floating around, so you’re not alone there. Good on you for verifying!
- Comment on Despite constitutional limit, Trump says he's seeking a way to serve 3rd presidential term 4 days ago:
Sometimes. It depends on the judge, which is a problem in itself, being that the law is not partisan. Boasberg has been working insanely hard to uphold the Constitution in his court. We should recognize the ones that put their duty above money or loyalty, and replace the rest.

That would only apply had our court system not failed us in convicting him before the election.
- Comment on Despite constitutional limit, Trump says he's seeking a way to serve 3rd presidential term 4 days ago:
That would take an amendment to the Constitution, which requires 2/3 of states to ratify. He has a better chance of taking it by force than by law.
- Comment on Florida considers easing child labor laws after pushing out immigrants 1 week ago:
We’re cattle. Republicans are gutting social programs and disease prevention, forcing the births of unwanted children, and repealing child labor laws. They are breeding us while culling the weak.
- Comment on Methylene Blue sounds like the shit 1 week ago:
Careful with that though. It can have some side effects when mixed with certain medications.
- Comment on How is content like this banned on .ml for being "political"? 1 week ago:
They’re right. I’m not defending the ban, but it is political by definition.
ICE is following Trump’s orders, which are an unconstitutional violation of the Fifth Amendment. When the Alien Enemies Act was used during WWII, even the Nazis had due process before being deported.
- Comment on Dig this trench to protect your landlord's ability to gouge your decendants. 1 week ago:
Property tax, and subsequently rent, is already going to go up thanks to the dismantling of the Department of Education. People just haven’t realized that yet. The federal taxes previously used to supplement schools will be going toward the wealthy tax breaks. We’re not getting that back.

They have Rosie the Riveter on a vintage tee but have no clue what she represents.
- Comment on Dig this trench to protect your landlord's ability to gouge your decendants. 1 week ago:
I see comments like this from Americans who are surprised that Ukrainians are still working and going to school. Do they think people just stop needing food and rent money because the streets are getting bombed?

- Comment on Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey? 4 weeks ago:
I misunderstood “poor storage” as a temperature. Sure, if you don’t seal the container and an abundance of moisture is able to enter, that could cause spoilage. So if OP doesn’t keep their honey in a bucket in the basement they should be fine.
- Comment on Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey? 4 weeks ago:
That’s an old wives’ tale. Honey never spoils, it crystallizes. All you need to do is heat it to liquify. 3000 year old honey was found in an Egyptian tomb, and was still edible.
- Comment on How can A person find out if they were hired as a DEI or fired because of it? 5 weeks ago:
DEI does not influence hiring or firing. The right intentionally conflates DEI, which is creating an inclusive work environment, with affirmative action. The latter was a set of policies that required special consideration for marginalized groups when hiring, and was repealed by SCOTUS in 2023.
As a former corporate manager, I can say first hand that DEI has been a focus in respectable institutions for much longer than the term has existed. The best way to stagnate your business is to hire a bunch of like-minded people and make them all think and act alike.

And in Ohio, boneless wings can have bones.
- Comment on Next week, Amazon is stripping away your ability to download your ebooks. 5 weeks ago:
It shouldn’t. The DRM is on the Amazon book file format. The books I get from my library are usually epub format.

That’s one way into a man. He could also be saying bottoms can’t be defiled. Either way, it sounds like approval to me.
- Comment on Next week, Amazon is stripping away your ability to download your ebooks. 1 month ago:
Check if it’s available on your library website first, for the sake of the author.

- Comment on Ah, men 🥵 1 month ago:
Many people believe that Jesus never said anything about homosexuality, but I disagree.
And He said to them, “Are you so lacking in understanding also? Do you not understand that whatever goes into the man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is eliminated?”
Mark 7:18–23
- Comment on Trump policies make US ‘scary place to invest’ and risk stagflation, says Stiglitz 1 month ago:
Oh I’m not referring to money-making opportunities so much as market stability. Investors flock to gold in times of instability.
