We probably need to build a pipeline over the border

We also have a land border with Denmark

He's more akin to Stalin. Trump has an incompetent indifference to the US population. If he had acted earlier during COVID he could have prevented at least 100K unnecessary deaths. And then he goes and gets the vaccine in secret. Sure he hasn't killed as many people as Stalin yet but given his policies on climate change it's very possible his actions will lead directly to more deaths than Stalin and Hitler combined. Only time will tell and our descendants will not judge people like trump kindly.

I thought this sub was for people having thoughts about showers, not thoughts in the shower. This all makes sense now

There are enough legitimate reasons to criticize AI bros without making shit up. These kinds of bs posts just distract from the problems AI is causing. Real question, why did you post this? Are you gullible, lazy, or malicious?

Do criminals or terrorist measure themselves by how much bounty is put on their heads? Did Bin Laden think he was king shit because he was the top guy on all wanted lists? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Strait To War - a Strait of Hormuz blockade tanker transit game (straittowar.com)
 

I made, "Strait to War", where you have to get a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz. You can't pick your side, you just spawn in as either a tanker, an Iranian drone, or a US frigate. You have an objective but there is no real winning the game. It's an anti-war game disguised as a war game.

Sound doesn't work yet. Let me know what you think. I will add Iranian speed boats next. And I have no idea how it will scale with lots of users.

Is it impolite to crosspost someone else's post to another community on Lemmy without saying anything? (lemmy.ca)
 

cross-posted from: https://piefed.europe.pub/c/asklemmy/p/266879/is-it-impolite-to-crosspost-someone-else-s-post-to-another-community-on-lemmy-witho

I feel like on mainstream social media this is done pretty thoughtlessly and it's a norm but on Lemmy, with the much smaller userbase, I kinda felt like... it's like riding on someone else's coat tails? Or is it just me? > > Edit: of course if it's artwork or text, obviously then I'd make it explicitly clear it's not mine but I mean news articles, memes, things like that.

Do these look like fake cigarettes or used tampons? (lemmy.ca)
 

I'm going to a cabaret show tonight and I wanted to get in costume. I tried to make some fake cigarettes but now I'm worried I'll these will make me look like a perverted vampire. What's the consensus team?

The Canada US border along the Detroit river should move 250km north to reduce tariffs for the automotive industry (lemmy.ca)
 

This may be an unpopular opinion but we should consider moving the Canada / US border 250km north along the Detroit river. Moving the border north 250km would reduce the amount of cross border trips for the automotive industry negating a lot of the tariff issues. And I don't think the geniuses ruling the US would realize that moving the border north along this stretch would result in Canada gaining over 9000km² of land.

The reason this may be unpopular is because Canada would inherit the Detroit Red Wings.

I'm not affiliated with Michaud Toys, I'm just a very happy customer. The craftsmanship is amazing. Prices and delivery costs were very reasonable too ($45 for the board + $15 for delivery to Belleville Ontario). Their website has loads of games michaudtoys.org

Purple mash potatoes (lemmy.ca)
 

My 3yo wanted purple mash potatoes, it didn’t really work because I used yellow potatoes. Then my 3yo decided she didn’t want potatoes so my wife and I were stuck eating prison gruel.
