Weird, this pulled more down votes than a lot of the posts around it.

I wonder why.

This legitimately confused me as a kid because the names were so similar.

What's unclear about it? Numerous reporters have noted he nods off regularly every day of the trial.

I've always wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, regardless of who his parents are. He's about to throw away that goodwill.

Love the puffer fish reaction. Really locks in this joke.

There's a lot of stupid people in these interviews:

“I can’t vote for Trump. He’s a crook. He’s too corrupt,” said Scott Simeone, 64, an independent voter from Amherst, who backed Trump in 2016 and 2020. “I voted for him, and I didn’t realize he’s as corrupt as he is.”

You voted for him in 2016 I might grant ignorance then, but in 2020?

Then there's democrats on the other side turning up their noses at the idea of voting for Biden as the lesser of two evils. This is an existential fight for democracy and people are getting persnickety with fascism at the gates?

Same. I had an account that was probably 12+ years old. Reddit was a huge part of my recreational schedule.

I genuinely prefer Lemmy. The lack of algorithms pushing engagement is good for the soul. It's here when I want it and I can leave it whenever I'm done.

Actual hyposprays have been around since the 60's. They are, by all account, quite painful and ironically not very hygienic.

I think most comments were generally helpful or at least sharing their experiences when faced with a similar problem.

The openly critical responses were downvoted.

I'm not a member of the community, but I think you might be a little unfair calling it not nice.

This makes global news and puts real pressure on the International Esports Federation — the group actually capable of policing the bullies — to do their job.

This sucks, but is absolutely the correct play by the Ukrainian team.

This is huge for women's health and reproductive freedom in Wisconsin, but it's even bigger for democracy as a whole.

Her opponent was basically fine overturning election results and Trump narrowly lost a challenge in 2020 in Wisconsin that could have kept him in office.

Everyone wins today.
