captainsiscold , in Revealed: How major US banks are funding anti-LGBTIQ groups
@captainsiscold@kbin.social avatar

For some perspective:

  • Funding given by BofA to the groups listed in the source: $390,000
  • Funding given by BofA to fossil fuel companies: $232,000,000,000

(Granted, this is not a perfect apples-to-apples comparison, as the fossil fuel numbers are for 2016-2021, not 2017-2020, but regardless...)

GodAwfulHorridSniff , in Revealed: How major US banks are funding anti-LGBTIQ groups

Who cares? What a bank does isn’t going to deter me from supporting or opposing what I choose. Every major product or service that you use employs the same level choice across the board, whether you like it or not.

But you can avoid doing business with banks that are more egregiously shitty in this regard. Use a local credit union instead.

GodAwfulHorridSniff ,

That’s true, but that’s not going to stop someone who believes in this to stop going to Starbucks when they try to stop their workers from unionizing, or stop shopping at Amazon even though they underpay and over work their employees. Like if your going to draw a line, either cross it or stay behind it but don’t act like you have a hill to die on because some bank chooses to do something really shitty. Let’s get real here.

This happened over a month ago, just fyi.

Poster is also a China-shill/misinformation operator. Check their post/comment history. Sowing confusion and hatred all around is abc in their playbook.

Okay, so what? The linked source is still associated press, the largest press agency in the world.

Ambassador Cruise Lines confirmed on Thursday that the arrival of their ship Ambition in Torshavn in the Faroe Islands – located between Scotland, Iceland and Norway in the North Atlantic – “coincided with the culmination of a hunt of 40+ pilot whales in the port area,” according to the cruise line.

I don’t understand the thought process here. Even if it wasn’t fentanyl, she thought “I need the baby to sleep. Oh yeah, coke should do the trick.”

Teen mom forced to give birth and then becomes exhausted and mentally unstable from postpartum depression and does something unthinkable but they are unstable and lack maturity.

clockwork_octopus ,

Exactly this. This is why it’s absolutely imperative that pregnancies and births are not forced on anyone.

mrbiiggy , in Sheriff says baby dies after teen mom put fentanyl in bottle

The mother, 17, allegedly “changed her story several times” but ultimately “confessed” she had been tired and wanted to take a nap, filled the baby’s bottle, and put some of “what she thought was cocaine” in the bottle, the sheriff said.

Why the hell would you give cocaine to a baby to make it sleep. WTF

Why the hell would you give an adult coke if you wanted him to sleep?

Florida: Abortions after six weeks are illegal.
17 year old mother: Oh yeah? Watch this.

Sharpiemarker ,

That was my gut feeling as well… This country has been spiraling in recent years.

Quill7513 , in Mexico surpasses China as top U.S. trade partner

There’s good and bad about this. Looking on the optimistic side, it’s far less energy demanding to ship goods from Mexico to America

expatriado ,

what is the bad?

grte ,

Two largest economies/militaries/second + third largest nuclear arsenals being heavily economically dependant on each other is good for stability.

Quill7513 ,

Basically nation states are like teenagers and we’ve decided to stop hanging out with one of the popular girls because we’ve decided Becky down the street is nicer, so what if she doesn’t have as much money. Meanwhile, Susan is prone to jealousy and lashing out and is probably going to make our lives really upsetting by spreading rumors about how we’ve got a pencil dick and we’ve been sleeping with that one kid who everyone bullies that smells funny

phoneymouse , in Teen Passenger Detained In Airport For 'Skiplagging'

One time I needed to book a one way trip from one country to another. It was like $3000. So, I checked what it would cost for a round trip ticket and it was $2500. Which one would you book?

Athena5898 , in Sheriff says baby dies after teen mom put fentanyl in bottle

I would take this story with a huge grain of salt. If you ask a cop how's the weather and they tell you it's sunny, bring an umbrella. (In case this isn't clear to some people, it's a saying about how cops fucking lie about everything

If you look in the picture Spacebar posted you can see it has mirrors attached.

If only there were some sort of method of stopping a pregnancy before it even got to the point that the teenager had to go through labor that was legal, safe and without stigma.

Of course, this is Florida, so there is no such method.

MicroWave OP , in Florida rocked by home insurance crisis: ‘I may have to sell up and move’
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

Households in Florida, the third most populous state in the US, have been grappling for some time with a property insurance crisis that is making home ownership unaffordable for many. After at least six insurers went insolvent in Florida last year, Farmers on Tuesday became the latest to pull out of the Florida market, saying in a statement that the decision was based on risk exposure in the hurricane-prone state.

“Global warming is partly to blame, but so is Ron DeSantis. Instead of banning books and picking fights with Disney and drag queens, he should be tackling the issues that really matter to Floridians.”
