politics @lemmy.world•Kristi Noem told "lawyer up" over blind refugee's death
88·7 months agoThis person was in jail, literally in jail, because he was blind and he accidentally walked onto someone’s property.
That’s tantamount to accidently stepping on a sidewalk crack and breaking your mother’s back.
A life, an actual human life, has been wiped out now because of the sequence of these events. Like how fucking cooked is this place?

politics @lemmy.world•Trump holds national address in rally style speech blaming Biden for the state of his nation
1·9 months agoI think my phone autocorrected that from done to gone, but yeah it’s strangely apt at the same time.

65·9 months agoThat was…interesting. I’m Canadian, it’s not my place to comment as it has to do with American internal politics. I will say it was an absolute assault on the senses anyways. I’ve never heard a politician lay claim to so many feats, like I think this guy just claimed he’s gone more than all the presidents combined, solved every war and completely solved the economy. That’s quite a bold claim!

Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
2·9 months agoI’ve got KCD2, and I mean it’s awesome, but the prologue drags on my god. I just got the darn thing finally started and I was bored of it. I’ll pick it back up at some point. It’s great, it just needs a special kind of attention and dedication that I’m not sure I totally have.

5·9 months agoCarmageddon Max Damage. I used to live for the original Carmageddon, back when I was in high school. Between me and my old man, we annihilated that game and all the add on packs. This version is a pleasant return to a simpler time, but it’s a nice shake up of the classic too, it’s actually a bit challenging. I’m really enjoying it, about 55% done. I pick away at it here and there, and have been doing that this week. Probably going to replay Modern Warfare 2 (the 2009 version) on the weekend, as I just finished Modern Warfare 1 last weekend.

Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Where's the best point to jump into modern Resident Evil?
1·9 months ago7 with VR was phenomenal. It’s not quite the same as the 1-4 series though, like it was almost a different universe. I never played its sequel, but I heard it was good.

18·1 year agoWhat kind of meat stick would do this? I still just literally cannot understand why someone would put themself in this position, no matter how entrenched into their parents basement they are, or how bad they smell.

politics @lemmy.world•This leaked memo exposes an agenda so awful even Trump wants it kept secret
73·1 year agoThe calls are coming from inside the house unfortunately. They represent the same interests. Nobody is ever going to look at the NRA with any seriousness or ethics.

News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione's 120-page healthcare history was accidentally shared by Aetna and his own lawyers, prosecutor says
11·1 year agoProbably nothing left of them at this point. I’d be surprised if they haven’t been shredded. At least the hard hitting parts. I’m sure the parts involving registered Democrats and personal enemies have been preserved though.

politics @lemmy.world•House Democrat Calls on Kristi Noem To Resign Over ICE Lies
41·1 year agoI’m afraid all the conventional rules are out the window. I mean when the stakes are becoming what they are, you do what needs done. That doesn’t involve going to Congress, writing bills that will never get passed or going before a supreme court where the conclusion is decided before the case even gets underway.
Crying on CNN isn’t going to stop what’s going on, I know that much for sure.

politics @lemmy.world•House Democrat Calls on Kristi Noem To Resign Over ICE Lies
63·1 year agoThey need to start fighting fire with fire. It’s not like the other side is that intelligent in a lot of ways, so trying to fight with logic isn’t going to get this done. Start a misinformation campaign like they do or something. Damn glad it ain’t my problem, don’t get me wrong. But I do see both sides of it, and democratic arrogance is how we are here too, in a lot of ways.
As brain dead as this is, maybe quit running women in must win elections. I ain’t saying it’s right, or that’s fair or just (it shouldn’t even be a thing). But it’s literally stacking the odds against you in insurmountable fashion. Nothing against Kamala, but if was pretty clear right out of the gates she was going to lose, and they just ignored it.

756·1 year agoIt’s time for Democrats to knock this shit off. Oh but the rules, but the rules.
PSA: People that openly flout laws and systems of order, don’t give a shit about the rules bud. No wonder they lost. Load of impotent geeks is what they are.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump Says Some Treasury Notes May Not Be Real
50·2 years agoThis could trigger a Minsky moment. And a world wide financial meltdown. Then he’ll just say haha just kidding. Once that genie is out of the bottle though, there’s no going back.

World News@lemmy.world•Trump mocks Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as the 'governor' of the 'Great State of Canada'English
1·2 years agoBut also have a gun culture where someone walks into a primary school cafeteria full of defenceless toddlers and fires off 300 rounds from an automatic, yet only hits like 10 kids. No these types of “Americans” are fucking animals, and are dumb as shit.
This ain’t walmart. Remember that. Also they are like 0 for 6, or whatever it’s at now.
It’s definitely gotten pretty weird. I’m on my last warning for inciting violence over saying I’m surprised no one has gotten killed yet, in a poorly designed traffic intersection that results in near-daily collisions near my house. Seriously. Someone reported it for inciting violence, the mods on the thread removed it and Reddit warned me and banned my account for a period. I’ve had a few other ones that were pretty random too.
