I wish I was half as cool as that kid...

Slightly off topic, but as lemmy is so low volume, pretty often the same image shows up in the feed 3-4 times next to each other from someone crossposting to multiple communities. I would suggest that crossposting be limited as much as possible for that reason. As the post volume still is so small there's not much reason to even go to a topical community. I just check local once in a while and even then I quickly get down to already seen material so the chance of not seeing a post is pretty low unless it is a community I've blocked, but then odds are I won't like it anyway.

Just my opinion, of course. Thoughts?

We don't know who named most things, so that is hardly surprising. We typically only know who named recent phenomena.

Was Eleanor one of them?

Bullshit. Don't blame voters for Biden risking handing the forever keys to the country to the fucking Nazis just to protect a genocide. Some people have actual principles and if one of those principles is to not vote for a guy that arms and funds a genocide, don't you fucking dare blaming them. This is on Biden and his handlers thinking it was a jolly fine strategy trying to manufacture enough consent for a genocide among Democrats and Independents to win an election. The obvious weak link is that genocide is a bit of a hard sell to non fascists, in case you didn't realize.

Many democrats and independents will still do their duty and vote for Biden, but many simply can't or won't vote for a pro genocide politician even if the alternative is so much worse. Some things simply can't stand and consequences be damned, you know? Conservatives feel that shit over stuff like trans people needing to use the bathroom and naughty books, but genocide is one of those things that can make even a Democrat put their foot down. I mean, who could have figured the woke brigade was against genocide? Camp Biden surely didn't.

To summarize, Biden shot a big gaping hole in his own foot and you are blaming the voters for his almost inevitable loss in the upcoming foot race? Is that about right? I can almost see him aiming at the other foot right now, thinking more speed holes will give him an edge.

As I suspected, I did not understand the summary.

The whole "dark matter" thing has never sat right with me. It always seemed like a desperate attempt to explain what we see. I'm not saying I know enough to have an informed opinion, but it has always seemed wrong. It is matter we can't detect in any way except for gravity? Nah. The forces of nature changing due to expansion? Fits better somehow. Anyway, what do I know? I entertained the idea that it was time that was changing due to the expansion, but I couldn't get it to fit. This seems more plausible.

Lol. As a neighbor, I believe you. Grew up around a lot of Finns and all that grumpiness is just an act. You're all cuddly inside but afraid to show it. Love you all.

Looks like it's finally time to bite the bullet and watch the big short.

That "article" was a right mess. AI generated or severly intoxicated writer? I'm guessing AI.

So it might be real after all. Huh.

Why is the compromise always to be a good little voter and vote for us regardless of the heinous shit we're up to cuz the other option is Hitler wins? That isn't a compromise. A compromise is when both sides give up something they want. What have the dems given up? Said that Israel has maybe gone a little bit too far? Whoopty-fucking-do.
