not for long!

why does it seem like every major news organization has just learned about the word “era”? are we in the era of new eras?

do we really even need to do a background check on gaetz to know that he’s a bad idea? i’m pretty sure they’d find even more skeletons if they background checked him, but there should already be more than enough information to know he’s a bad candidate.

6th recall this year so far

the leopards do not eat because they are hungry. they eat because they can.

i think the best-case scenario from all of this is that trump decides to continue supporting ukraine just to spite putin. i dont even want to think about what the worst-case scenario might be

is diplomacy an option?

no thank you, i get all my deals from quick deals thank you very much

did you read the article?

British Wikipedian, Stuart Marshall, made the final ruling in September, decisively supporting the article’s inclusion. “Based on the strength of the arguments … and it’s not close … I discarded the argument that scholars haven’t reached a conclusion on whether the Gaza genocide is really taking place”, Marshall wrote in his decision. “The matter remains contested, but there’s a metric truckload of scholarly sources linked in this discussion that show a clear predominance of academics who say that it is.”

Marshall concluded his ruling with the straightforward statement: “We follow the scholars.”

On its “Gaza genocide” page, it states that “Experts, governments, United Nations agencies, and non-governmental organisations have accused Israel of carrying out a genocide against the Palestinian people during its invasion and bombing of the Gaza Strip in the ongoing Israel–Hamas war.”

christmas wouldn’t be christmas without 42 geese

whoa now that is a crazy coincidence

not sure who’s listening to this, but i thought i’d throw my hat in the ring. i can also burn all my money extremely quickly, if desirable.

aren’t ironclads a type of ship in civ6? is this a civ6 reference?

i would disagree that math problems only have one strategy for getting to the answer. there are many things, particularly in more abstract math, which can be understood in multiple different ways. the first example that comes to mind is the fundamental theorem of algebra. you can prove it using complex analysis, algebraic topology, or abstract algebra. all the proofs are quite different and rely on deep results from different fields of math.

i think the same thing holds in the less abstract areas of math, it’s just that people are often only taught one strategy for solving a problem and so they believe that’s all there is.

the human head can only take so many punches

i take comfort in knowing that most of the time it’s going to be sarcasm, since (in my experience) there are very few trump supporters on lemmy. and the few trump supporters that i’ve seen don’t tend to last.

crazy to think that trump might do exactly what he said he was going to do. how could we, the voters, have predicted this?

what was that? like $4?

that would only be true if there was something to replace it

i would imagine it is. they fought very hard for it
