What will actually happen in this timeline:

bill undergoes revisions, Pelosi is the author… Trump signs it, DNC and MAGA congratulate eachother for bipartisanship… bill has a rider for politicians to expense trade fees… your taxes go up to cover it.

You mean its not a shop? Wtf… no… wtf?

I just don’t see the value of having 64gb of RAM. Not for the conventional user, not for gamers, not for the average power user either. Maybe there’s a need if you’re doing a lot of video editing and large file manipulation… but like… I would argue that MOST people, unless they’re trying to play AAA games while streaming and gooning don’t need more than 16gb

I have 32gb and I’ve never topped it out. And yea, Windows eats a lot (I really need to give up the ghost and migrate to Linux) but even still, 32gb, and I don’t even get close. 64gb is just going to be a lot of unused space. Bigger number doesn’t mean better. I doubt you’d even notice unless you fall into the previously mentioned category of users.

Andrew Jackson, you mean Trumps aspirational role model?

Everyone should have seen this coming. All the writing has been on the wall for near a decade now.

But they won. Because the alternative was a literal maga crazy person who doesn’t think prejudice against LGBT people is discriminatory.

Now, you can be unhappy that it wasn’t some mystical ultra progressive (that wasn’t even running in the race)… or you can be happy that at least the needle didn’t shift even further right. Now that’s not to say “Vote Blue NMW”, but it will be easier to field progressives in the future from Spanberger’s position, than from Winsome’s. And maybe next time, the magical lefty messiah Lisan al Gaib will be running and the choice will be between them vs the centrist democrat, instead of a centrist democrat vs a literal smoothbrained maga dummy.

if you’re just beginning to abhor them, you have not been paying nearly enough attention.

Someone probably did tell him. But he forgot. Because he’s old, and probably has dementia.

exactly. And they’ve made up a term for it to make him sound smarter than he really is.

They call “the weave”.

As if Trump is masterfully moving from subject to subject, connecting dots, seeing the patterns… and not, ya know, fucking rambling like a senile old person.

Tone policing for a nazi is wild.

Not just hard. In so many cases, it’s impossible. That’s why they get covered up. What are you not understanding about this? Are you dense or just being intentionally obtuse?

Removed by mod

Removed by mod

Lemmy’s reaction exemplifies:

You are not immune to propaganda

A: he already had it covered and has shown it…

B: Removal isn’t a one time thing? Like, it takes months. It’s a whole medical procedure. Doing the consultation, creating a treatment plan, several appointments, and time to heal between. Do you think tattoo removal is some simple outpatient thing you can just do as a walk in?

Did you know that not all tattoos can be removed? Yea, that’s part of the consultation. Because some tattoo inks aren’t reactive to the laser. Some skin tones don’t work. And it hurts, a lot, the whole time. Because it’s literally burning it off. Pending where on the body that is, it may not be feasible.

Which is why MOST tattoo “removals” are done as coverups. Because getting a tattoo is nowhere near the same thing, in time, in pain, etc as removing a tattoo.

I swear, way too many people on Lemmy think tattoo removal is some magic device.

This, again, speaks to your naivety. About military culture, about tattoo culture, etc.

For YOU, it’s important to know everything about something you’re getting a tattoo of. But it’s EXTREMELY common in both military circle and tattoo circles to just get a tattoo of a thing. Because sometimes, for some people, it’s not about what the tattoo is, but the place, experience, memory of getting it. The art itself is the least important thing.

That’s not you, and that’s okay… but to think that everyone thinks like you? Or should? Arrogance. Snobbish arrogance.

Whatever man, sow division about shit. Don’t let people make mistakes and grow. Be insufferable. That’ll make the world better.

Getting a tattoo removed isnt a simple one and done procedure. It takes months to remove a tattoo. Several appointments breaking it down, letting it heal, breaking it down, repeat. And it doesnt work with all tattoos/ink colors/skin colors.

You, naively, dont know what youre talking about. Getting a tattoo covered is the fastest and most common way to get rid of an old tattoo.

if he didn’t know what kind of skull he was permanently inking on his chest - then he is uneducated

Oh piss off. The overwhelming majority of people (even on Lemmy) didnt know what a totenkopf was until this incident. I wouldn’t be surprised if YOU just learned about this

Odds are probably not.

Because his entire reddit history for the past decade has been dug up and none of it points to nazi posting. Even posts that were deleted.

You’d think if he was a secret nazi, then maybe it would show in his private online shitposting. When he wasn’t running for office, when he didnt have to maintain face… but no, its not there.

Literally, ALL, the evidence this smear campaign has is the tattoo (which he immediately covered). None of his private history for a decade supports this. Instead most of the private reddit posts contradict it.

You think a white supremacist is calling white rural voters a bunch of racists? You think a nazi is posting ACAB?

I’ll take it.

ok
