That emoji makes the blob look like a locoroco, I love it!

So the baby penis injection is made from circumcised foreskins right? They’re not like… sticking needles into the genitals of uncircumcised babies… right??

If grandma can ride a motorcycle sidesaddle then she can do whatever she wants

Another example is birria, a Mexican dish made from stewed goat meat. The name literally translates to “garbage/worthless” and was created out of desperation by the natives.

Along with other livestock, the conquistadors introduced goats to Mexico, but unlike the other livestock, goats became an invasive species. They bred rapidly and ate everything, including harvests, which worsened famines. So even though goat meat was considered tough, disgusting, and taboo (hence the name) indigenous Mexicans began to eat them for survival.

Birria is absolutely delicious though. 100/10 food. Fuck the Spanish

That’s the navy seals copypasta LMAO

I love how one of the suggested responses is to provoke the AI even more

Thank you! Disappointing that the article is just a bunch of numbers

What’s the full article say? I can only see the beginning of it

I want to know what the deal is with that one property they’re selling in Bulgaria lol

This reminds me of the “toxic masculinity” discourse. Some people say that the term means that masculinity itself is toxic. Other people say that masculinity is fine, it’s toxic masculinity that’s the problem, hence the qualifier.

I’ve seen people use the term late-stage capitalism to advocate for like, Bush era politics so I don’t think we’re getting the right message across.

That has always bothered me about the term “late-stage capitalism.” It makes it sound like the problems of today are unique to our stage in development and not intrinsic to capitalism itself.

To a lot of people, it seems like the issue is modernity and the solution is to return to a more prosperous past. Like when we had segregation, or limited suffrage, indentured servitude or (more) slavery…

Even at 50, you already know that there’s gonna be political pundits fearmongering about how Big Government is coming to take away your house or whatever.

Unrelated, but Jerboa says this post has -1 comments which I think is pretty funny

How much do you know about NATO? And Russian history? 🤨

Yes.

TL;DR because they got couped and are having a civil war right next to your border, are ignoring political attempts to resolve their issues, and want to join a military alliance that is an extreme threat to your national security

Ukraine has been in civil war since 2014 and hasn’t respected either of the ceasefires that it signed onto (Minsk protocols). The fight was broadly started over whether Ukraine should align itself with Europe & America or Russia. Since then, the country has been couped by the US and has been persecuting and killing Ukrainians who support Russia and/or protest the new government.

There’s also how Ukraine wants to join NATO, which would certainly mean that the US would station nukes right next to Moscow. Remember the Cuban missile crisis? This is basically the same thing but with even closer territories.

I’m not certain that Russia entering the war was the best move, but I’m also confident that US interference would never stop peacefully. I’m also certain that if it were a western country in a similar position, our media would be framing it as an intervention instead of an invasion. Keep in mind that Russia and Ukraine are separate countries in the first place because of US meddling and they’ve only been apart for ~30 years (many Russians have friends and family who died in the civil war prior to 2023).

So basically NATO has been expanding its way eastward since its foundation (despite promises not to) and has now butted up against Russia. Russia wants Ukraine to not join, but the US disagrees so here we are.

Btw this war doesn’t have much to do with Putin or Zelensky, really. Replace the head of state for either country and you’d still end up with the same conflict. And people have been writing about this for decades now, Brzezinski in particular basically plotted out the US policies that led us here.

It’s funny that even the feds are abusing ai Trump. My favorite is this video where he and Biden argue about FE7 Nino.

Let’s play a game I like to call “How would this American event be written about if it happened somewhere else?”

Here’s my take: Biden regime’s secret police murders woman that didn’t pay up. Internal investigation finds they did nothing wrong.

That explains a lot. I thought all of lemmy was communist but it seems like that only applies to lemmygrad. Dunno who would want a lib lemmy instance when Reddit exists tho
