No no no, it’s Venezuelan narcoterrorists, see! Eeeevil people who support an eeeevil narcodictator!!!

The funny thing is that they tried to impeach trump twice the first time he was president. Both times failed because there weren’t enough votes in the senate to actually impeach him.

So, even if 'muricans tried again, it’s likely the impeachment would fail again because of their senate

Well, Venezuela has fuckloads of oil that isn’t going to the USA, so…

I think sewing machines would count? They certainly got a hell lot more “portable”, but the basic design hasn’t changed much since the 1880s. Those things are little mechanical marvels

It was patented? Fucking hell, today I learned

Add more friction between you and the social media. On a computer, this can be done by adding lines to your /etc/hosts, or C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts files, completely blocking off specific sites. On a phone, add stupid long passwords to open certain apps, don’t accept biometrics, leave the password written down on a paper and hide it - resist the urge to save the password somewhere for easy copypaste or to uninstall the app that allows the password locking.

Other than that, leave your phone at home and try walking around the nearest park or any spot that has more than 10 trees, at least once a week. Touch grass, trees, flowers, leaves, sit down and just watch.

Another important thing to keep in mind while outside: people will forget your existence in 5-10 seconds

“One reporter was killed by the government – unfortunate, but not a fucking hill that I’m gonna die on,” Jim Jefferies said on Theo Von’s podcast in August, arguing it is for the greater good that “freedom-of-speech machines” such as himself bestow their “edgy” material on the kingdom and its subjects. (Since making the comments, Jefferies has since disappeared from the festival’s lineup; his representatives did not respond to inquiries about this.)

lol

How high is that number? According to Dillon, pretty high: in the same podcast that got him fired, he said the organizers offered him $375,000 and claimed that some comedians were offered millions. Gillis did not reveal how much the organizers offered him, but he did say that when he initially refused, they “doubled the bag”. Tough news for Dillon, who elsewhere claimed he asked for $500,000 but had to settle for less.

[Nimesh Patel] suggested that he could make up for the loss by performing “40 shows … here in the perfectly clean, moral, above-everyone-else United States of America.”

Would be funny if any of these comedians accepted but did a shit job on purpose to get booed off stage, then just explained that stunt as “giving their money’s worth”

Back when reddit banned 3rd party apps, I just left. My account is still there, once in a while I check something on reddit instead of lemmy due to number of people.

Despite having some good karma and many years, I never felt like reddit “had” anything I’d miss by leaving. You know the “just go outside and touch grass” thing? Literally just leave the place for a week, uninstall any apps, block the site on /etc/hosts, make it enough of an annoyance to sidestep your own blocks and it’ll help you.

Yup, when I first learned that you didn’t need to root, that developer options + adb was enough to get rid of most bloatware, that was an incredible relief to me, too!

Oh look, another crazy idiot who’s using his position of incredible power for self gain! Who coulda seen that??

When you enable USB debugging (gotta enable Developer Mode first, which is usually enabled by tapping several times on Settings -> About phone -> Build Number, but can vary depending on model), you can connect the phone to your computer and have the computer start a command line shell via ADB (Android Bridge), which will allow you to uninstall almost everything. First, you should get a list of installed stuff with adb pm list packages. With the list, you can then use adb pm uninstall -k --user 0 package.name - wildcards don’t work, you’ll have to go one by one.

I’m using a Moto G5 with stock android, too. Couldn’t be arsed to install lineage, since I could just enable USB debugging, run Android Bridge and uninstall most of the malware/spyware shit that comes builtin

And?

It’s because the Somalis are black

Considering how often Israel and bibi commit crimes without repercussions, I’m fearing for Greta. I mean, the USA doesn’t even care when its own citizens die because of zionists - https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/7/18/how-us-dealt-with-the-cases-of-nine-americans-killed-by-israel-since-2022

Having an account won’t solve the problem with A, since spam accounts are a problem even in the fediverse

Get off instagram and tiktok

So, time to short the argentinian peso. Again
