Shut up, Wesley!

(Patrick Stewart didn’t call Rs “Nazis”, because he wasn’t dumb. Patrick Stewart didn’t ever claim to speak for the cast and crew of STNG, because he wasn’t dumb. Be like Patrick Stewart… not Wesley)

bOtH sIdEs are crap, but you must pick your favorite turd.

It’s not pessimistic, friend, it’s realistic. Why ever would you expect our political system to stop being as it has been for our lifetime? It’s just dumb. You can work for change, but some cynicism is healthy.

I’m politically active, I’ve run for office, volunteered, and vote in every election.

Re those who want to stay uninvolved, you’re just going to have to deal with it. Some people are taking care of their sick parents. Some are raising crazy kids. Some are fighting mental illness. Some are working three jobs. They’re doing their best, if you don’t like it you can lump it.

It is though. See Charlie Kirk’s murder. He wasn’t the state, he didn’t kill anybody, yet his murder is openly relished.

He disagreed with their “state”, so his assassination is celebrated.

It’s a Lemmy thing. Just like how they can laugh uproariously over Charlie Kirk’s murder whilst making death threats about not including pronouns in emails.

Murder of a political enemy? HAHAHAHA

You didn’t include a pronoun in your own email? YOU MONSTER!!! How could you oppress me?

A great thing about Lemmy is that you can see what the mods have deleted and why they have banned users; they can make a hug box, but they can’t hide that they’ve made a hug box.

More like sad bait

it made me sad, anyway

I’m surprised it took so long, still can’t believe he got reelected after his first shit term.

He was already the worst President. “No war” my ass

I’m interested in how many MAGA still voted for him.

Whatever that percentage is, those people would officially be “true believers” in my opinion. I would suspect mostly Christian, but we’ll have all of the totals soon maybe I’m dumb

Baby Trump creeps me out even more than regular Trump mods please delete post

I wish that you wouldn’t wish that.

What’s “X”?

X-Men are pretty cool, is the kid a mutant?

I don’t get it

Put the gun away, you can still add your own pronoun, nobody cares.

You just can’t make me do it. Gun or not.

I didn’t see any anti-trans ballot initiatives; there were a few school sports initiatives, and trans can still compete whenever they’d like.

They just don’t get to pick their team. Like everybody else.

p.s. I’ve already been banned in another unrelated sub for this very post. Always remember, if you tell the truth, keep one foot in the stirrup! I forgive you, person

Everything but Trump, I seem to be in alignment with the mob about Trump, but little else.

Windows if perfectly fine? My friend, it takes almost a minute for Windows 11 to open the control panel. Revolting, I’m done with Windows.

Based

What a terrific question!

Because, like tens of millions of people, I don’t work 9-5 Monday through Friday.

Since this is obvious question night, how did you get so fat?

Lemmy is like the communist version of Reddit, but the mods aren’t quite as loopy.

(still a little loopy)

ETA my favorite part of Lemmy is that you can see what posts the mods have deleted, and their reason why. This way you know if they are insane immediately

those deleted posts are often pretty good and insightful, not the same generic Lemmy herd opinion

My first beloved Star Trek episode, for some reason the Gorn was my favorite from toddlerhood.

I wanted him to win (I despise Kirk), I was always hopeful for more Gorns in Star Trek. Had to settle for the Gorn still in credits (too young to realize that they were reruns and there would be no more Gorn)

Styrofoam rocks are also a fond memory, even at four I was suspicious

Oh my God I never knew they were the same actor until you said this.

Thank you, friend

We could have an animated show, too, don’t get me wrong.

I was thinking more like “Seinfeld” in space but it’s Barak as lead in his apartment when he’s not working. Like the other side of his life.

Every episode he tricks that gross nosy changeling and that whiny bajoran and they are the butt of every joke, they’re so dumb they don’t even know they’ve been humiliated. Quark gets it and they share a secret smile.

I never liked her.

I’m still waiting for the Garak Show, all Garak all the time

ETA mods, found the terrorist. Bajoran agent down vote detected.
