defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Iran says it launched attack on US forces at Qatar's Al Udeid Air BaseEnglish1·7 hours agoWonder what the NATO response will be/what it means if Article V isnt automatically invoked. When was the last time a foreign government said they’d launched an attack against the US? Genuine question.
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•MTG accuses Trump of "bait and switch" over Iran strikesEnglish411·8 hours agoMAGA is realizing that half their leaders are MRGA. It should be no surprise that the most pro-Russian conservatives are screaming hellfire against Trump right now when Iran is basically Putin’s Israel.
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Isn't it hypocritical for people to be accepting of transgender identities, but not transracial identities (people who identify as a different race than the one assigned at birth)?English51·9 hours agoCounterpoint: what’s at stake in the “transracial validity” debate? It’s important that society addresses transgender injustices because there’s a long history of violence against transfolk. I’ll admit that I’m not super familiar, but I dont see that in the history of transracialism.
Transracial person: “im black”
Bigot: “no youre not”
end scene.
Versus
Transgender person: “I’m a girl”
Bigot: “no youre not”
Cue decades of abuse, oppression, and violence.
It’s just not a big enough concern for most people so their default opinion is the one for the status quo, IMO.

Thats the bigger headline for me

defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Bill Clinton Endorses Andrew Cuomo for New York City MayorEnglish46·1 day agoIt’s insulting how hard the Democrats are pushing a sex pest who killed people during Covid just because his primary opponent is a dem-soc. How can anyone make progress with ‘allies’ like these?
Honestly thought you were talking about Clinton here
Just fruits AFAIK, and most farmed fruits really aren’t much healthier for you than candy.
Rant incoming but I really hate how it became “eat your fruits and vegetables” because way too many People rationalized it as “fruit is just as good as vegetable, I dont need to eat bad tasting vegetables as long as I eat enough yummy fruit”.
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto Relationship Advice@lemmy.world•As awful as it is, how do I tell her she's kinda gullible?English224·3 days agoDude just cut the cord. I couldn’t imagine feeling obligated to rehabilitate someone I was dating out of MAGAism. What do see in this person?

defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•988 (the crisis line) does nothing to actually help anyone, and mostly exists so people can feel good about themselves without doing anythingEnglish4·3 days agoYou are “crazy” so your suggestions on what you think effective care might be do not count. Mental health facilities are allowed to lie to you, too - you are treated like a child.
There is a long history of this in America. The Yellow Wallpaper was written in 1892 FFS
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•988 (the crisis line) does nothing to actually help anyone, and mostly exists so people can feel good about themselves without doing anythingEnglish121·4 days ago100% agreed. 988 is the most American way to address the mental health crisis.
yeah, let’s just hire a bunch of fresh grads, under pay them, bribe municipalities for exclusive contracts, and spend 90% of our money on advertising (to make more money! (To spend on more advertising!))
As you said, 988 is pretty much just a well-funded front-end for 911 99% of the time. I would literally only suggest someone call if I wanted them to kill themselves, because that’s all 988 is good for.
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldtoHiking@lemmy.world•AllTrails launches new AI route-making tool, worrying Search and Rescue teamsEnglish6·4 days agoShame to see. As someone whose backyard growing up ended literally 20 yards from the AT, I’ve loved AllTrails for years. I worry that this is going to get a lot of people in trouble. Chatbots living on servers should not be telling people to go off trail.
No joke this is a nice chart to have on hand.
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldOPto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Did the green "brat" album cover come from the hexadecimal color code for B4DD1E (BADDIE)?English5·4 days agoOh neat, what a nice coincidence to find then. I’m away from my desktop for at least 6 more hours or I would’ve double checked it on my own before making a post
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you think early humans survived without water bottles? Did they just live next to water sources all the time?English47·5 days agoFor the most part, yes, at least on a large scale. Proximity to a water source was pretty much a requirement for developments for most of history.
On the smaller side of things, other commenters have already mentioned that we had ways to store water before bottles existed.
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Kamala Harris Didn’t Lose Because of RacismEnglish413·5 days agoRead it. Trump just installed two flag poles at the WH because he lives there because he’s the POTUS. What news are you reading exactly?
defunct_punk@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Some Democratic senators regret voting to confirm Kristi Noem as DHS secretaryEnglish221·5 days agoWhat do you mean? Theyre acting right now to address the wild chaos of the Trump admin and calling their stock brokers as we speak
No, but it means that the transracial community has some social advocating to do before most people will care one way or another. It wasn’t that long ago that the funniest thing a movie could do was put a man in a dress, y’know.
