citrusface , in ‘Unacceptable Levels’ of Hazardous Substances in Temu Products, UK investigation finds

I don’t understand how anyone can see Temu anything other than a scam. If I want my cheap shit - I use AliExpress - I absolutely know what I’m buying is going to be garbage and all I need it to be is garbage.

anon232 ,

overconsumption of wasteful products like this is what’s destroying this fucking world.

citrusface ,

Tbf I am just buying things for table top mini games, it’s cheaper on there. I know the quality isnt great, but I just want scatter for my tables.

toofpic ,

I bought a lot of really nice stuff from both places (and some shitty stuff, but most of the time because I “saved” some time by not reading reviews), and they’re basically same, Temu is just Aliexpress, but little bit more expensive and with warehouses in EU. So I just pay a bit more if I need stuff in a few days, not in few weeks.
In many cases, temu stuff is probably just Ali stuff from resellers.
Anyway, no idea how you find temu and Ali any different

Soleos ,

I don’t get it, how is Temu a scam and AliExpress isn’t? They seem like the same thing, just an online marketplace for cheap shit with campy wild advertising. I actually prefer the shitty exaggerated product descriptions. It’s easier to gauge what I’ll be actually getting. It’s harder with better produced advertising coughRayconcough

citrusface ,

I didn’t say Ali wasn’t - Im just saying, I know what to expect on Ali. I expect shit. Temu markets itself as an amazing market place. Ali is the wild west of drop shipping.

Geek_King , in Aniston criticises 'childless cat ladies' comment

I hate the implication that you only have value if you have children, and if you don’t have children you don’t matter and neither do your opinions. As if having children is some grandiose accomplishment, only achieved by the best of society.

They always find a reason to devalue opinions they don’t like. “Shut up and dribble” is my favorite. They want people to “stay in their lane” completely ignoring we live in a democracy where everyone is entitled to an opinion. MUH freeze peach crowd hating on free speech when they don’t like the message but as soon as Kid Rock or Hulk Hogan opens their mouths they’re all ears.

They want people to “stay in their lane”

it even goes beyond that. recall fauci being relentlessly attacked (to this day) despite doing nothing but “staying in his lane,” medical expertise. because shutdowns are bad for business, it became priority 1 to convince everyone that covid is a hoax and if you wear a mask you are literally a baby-eating satan

Yeah, they don’t want that either.

FlyingSquid , in YouTube star sets Domino installation world record.
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s cool. I’ve always liked watching massive domino rallies. Ever since I was a kid and did it with the set of dominoes my grandfather had. I still have them. I’m going to enjoy watching this. Thank you.

Yerbouti , in 'Disgusting': Global 1% Captured $42 Trillion in New Wealth Over Past Decade.

Yes but immigrants and trans, no one ever speaks about that problem!

FlyingSquid , in Elon Musk’s X boosts conspiracy theories that Biden is dead or dying
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t know why they think this helps them at all. If he’s dead, there will be a massive wave of sympathy which will propel Harris into office.

The Rapist picking CouchFucker Vance as vp will propel her as much as Dead Brandon.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Nowhere near as much. Not even close. Johnson only got elected because of sympathy about Kennedy. He got 61% of the popular vote. You don’t get that high a popular vote just for taking over for Kennedy for a year unless people feel really bad about the loss of Kennedy.

I sorta forgot the /s

But it was more hyperbolic…perhaps “/h” ?

unmagical ,

If he’s dead she’ll already be president, the incumbent, and Trump will have to reprint anything that says 47.

billiam0202 ,

Trump will have to reprint anything that says 47.

Honestly, Biden should step down for this reason alone. The whinging would be glorious!

FlyingSquid , in Aniston criticises 'childless cat ladies' comment
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

This actually jibes with their argument that you can’t be a woman if you can’t bear children, something they say about trans women all the time. If you’re childless, you’re not a real woman to them.

Reminds me of the South Park Christmas Album. Pretty topical too since today is Christmas in July.

The minute we’re born we start dying

We die a little more every day

Young or old, rich or poor

There’s nothing you can do to stop it

So look long at that Christmas tree

It may be the last one that you see

Decorate your house with green and red

Cause some day you’ll be dead

This song is on my Christmas playlist since like 20 years… dead dead dead

NineMileTower ,

That’s technically incorrect. The human body remains busy at all times. Either the body is to get busy livin’ or it is to get busy dyin’.

ccunning ,

In the Tibetan philosophy, Sylvia Plath sense of the word, we’re all dying. But you’re not dying the way X is dying.
