This is the result of their messaging to campaign for small, local positions of power. We need to fight back by running against them.

Kbobabob , in ‘How am I in this war?’: New Musk biography offers fresh details about the billionaire’s Ukraine dilemma

Are all of the muskrats downvoting this post?

Probably, this article is being brigaded on most social platforms

The issue is that Musk is a wholly reprehensible person and this is the only good thing he has done in his life.

So people who like Musk (Tech bros, finance bros, Libertarians) downvote the post for trashing Musk, and Socialists downvote the post for supporting NATO-aligned imperial interests (or, if taken from a different lens, for trying to rehabilitate Musk).

The article loses the Left and the Right and its only real audience is the Centrist Liberals who both hate Musk and love the Ukraine.

dragontamer ,

Lemmy leans left, so there’s a fair number of tankies around here. Especially the “Lemmygrad” (pro-communist) server.

I don’t think there’s too many muskrats on Lemmy, not in my experience anyway. This place is the polar-opposite to Reddit as far as political ideologies go. I’d expect the pro-communist / pro-Russian tankies are downvoting.

I need to understand how one explodes diarrhoea so violently that it extends the length of the aisle of an entire plane… while fully clothed.

Maybe it was a lady in a skirt.

There’s a truck that delivers food to a factory near where i work, they have all the usual service station teir packaged sandwiches and whatever.

We call it the “yuck truck” because straya but anyway I used to buy sushi there on occasion to test my limits.

If/when you get salmonella poisoning, you will find out. I didn’t understand how people died of diarrhea-based diseases until then. You shit literal liquid every 30 minutes or less, for like two weeks, and it’s unstoppable. In my case, it never really did get better. I got diagnosed with virally induced ibs and nothing ever worked quite right after that. It’s been three years since I ate that recalled food (which wasn’t in recall at the time, yay).

Salmonella feels less like a disease, and more like you accidentally ingested some sort of rat poison and your body is desperately trying to get it out by making you vomit and shit like crazy so it doesn’t stay in you.

It’s the only time I actually wished for a cork, or perhaps adult diapers. It was a new low for me, I felt like I was gonna die, lol.

uberkalden ,

Holy shit. You still have problems?

Wahots ,
@Wahots@pawb.social avatar

My doctor told me shitting 4-5 times a day ain’t normal, lol. Things seem to slowly be getting better though. I dunno if my body will ever truely go back to 100%. Some say salmonella damages your immune system permanently, and based off my ass, I fucking believe it.

I think I’ve been constipated 2-3 times in the last few years since then, and I savor the feeling, lol. My hope that in another few years…perhaps I’ll be back down to 1-2 times a day.

resurrexia ,

Salmonella can hide out in the body and get reactivated again later so I’m not surprised. Plus your gut flora took a massive beating back then.

dogebread ,

It’s been like 15 years for me after a similar situation and 1-2 times a day is no problem, but the window to get to a bathroom is shorter than I once remember, and any kind of stress, particularly in the morning, makes for a bad time (early travel days, etc).

Wahots ,

Stress certainly does it to me too.

  1. Get out of seat at back of plane.
  2. Turbulence knocks you on your ass and shite out of your ass.
  3. At this point the floodgates have opened and you need to just get to the toilet asap for damage control.
  4. Run down aisle with shite dripping out of your trouser leg.
  5. Read about the time you “exploded like a chocolate grenade in the middle of the plane” in the paper.

I’m picturing the guy running up and down the plane, just spraying shit everywhere like a South park episode.

aidan ,

Probably was waiting for the toilet and just couldn’t hold it, then was running back and forth between bathrooms trying to get in one.

Blackmist ,

I was on a Ryanair flight a few years ago, and out of 3-4 toilets that should have been working, only one was. And a staff member had to hold the door shut on that. The queue was all the way down the plane for like 3 hours of the 4 hour journey.

peyotecosmico , (edited ) in Mexico is likely to get its first female president after top parties choose 2 women as candidates

While I love the praise Mexico is getting things seems different when you live in the country.

She hid her friend who was the director of Mexico city’s metro when it collapsed because lack of maintenance and killed several people.

Her political party crippled the main out of the country scholarship organization (Conacyt) while her daughter got one for a PhD in philosophy… when those should be for STEM type of scholarships.

She got there because the president put her there, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

That some (most) Mexicans are afraid he’ll (Lopez Obrador) pull a Nicholas Maduro type of government since more than once he got involved with Maduro type of political characters for official events.

Lopez Obrador complained that past administrations used Pegasus to spy on him while it’s proven that he is doing it to news reporters.

Speaking of news reporters, we got the sadly top record of killing them, people that reported against his administration.

It is well known that he is letting drug cartels work to be at “peace” with them because he complained that Calderon’s administration had a war against them. The issue is that most of the cartel people are uneducated bullies that do whatever they want and one can’t defend yourself because we are afraid.

Lopez Obrador has given lots of power/money to the army and most of us are afraid in case he’s planning to pull a Venezuela here. Army in Mexico isn’t like the US one, think about US cops on steroids. He closed a mayor airport project only because it was started by the last administration, he claimed there was corruption but never showed proof of it, and used an old small military airport instead. That ended up costing way more than the original airport in fines as payment to those “corrupt” people.

While Mexico has tons of oil we all know it isn’t the future and he heavily invested in a refinery at the state where he is from. So much that is screwing other areas.

He has granted government concessions directly to his people. By law there should be a contest.

He has giving us the speech that there’s not enough money that we need to tight the belt while he spends lots of money in other things like Tren Maya or that refinery.

Every freaking day he has a TV show (4 hours or more) where he claims he’s reporting what he’s doing but most of the time he’s just praising his political party and dissing others, he has reporters there asking questions but most of the time they are kissing his feet (Google Lord Molecula, I’ll admit he’s a character because of what he wears but he’s mayor kiss ass). Sometimes he gets a real reporter asking uncomfortable questions but he just disses them “because they are paid by the opposition”.

You can Google the news but most are in Spanish.

Don’t get me wrong, it sounds like I’m against him while I’m supporting the other side, they are all the same, left or right, they just want to fill their pockets while screwing the country.

I’m tired of him being almost a celebrity and some people kissing his feet.

While there’s an internal election that picked Sheinbaum, let me remind you that she was his favorite and his followers treat him like a celebrity. Mexico has a history of presidents designing their sucesor.

Don’t get me wrong lots of people love him, I bet I’ll get reply from a someone defending him.

Again, to me all sides are the same. I’m not left or right, in fact I don’t like politics because I feel it’s just a soap opera for grown ups. Sorry for the wall of text, just venting.

Pissnpink , in A man bought a metal detector to get off the couch. He just made the "gold find of the century" in Norway.

I know what your thinking, but just stop. This won’t happen to you. You’ll just get all sore and sweaty from walking around. Maybe even sunburned. Return to the couch like the good lord intended.

moody ,

I don’t want to get off the couch either, but I’m sure he was thinking the same thing.

SpaceNoodle ,

This, but with “you’re” used correctly.

SheeEttin ,

I went metal detecting in my back yard once. I found a rusty spoon and a 12" length of pipe!

I also went on an old farm and found half an ox shoe. Neat!

SpaceNoodle ,

I didn’t know they made shoes for half-oxes.

electrogamerman ,

Thats just two less shoes than for a complete ox.

SpaceNoodle ,

It’s more likely two fewer.

electrogamerman ,

Technically fewer shoes are also less shoes (at leastif I translate to my language lol)

SpaceNoodle ,

No, shoes are countable, so it’s “fewer.”

halferect ,

Not really, the guy is worth 5-6 million dollars so this won’t scare him at all. He will get a fine and pay it then go on his merry way

kaitco ,

Is it an either/or on the prison time and fine? I read it as fine and min 30 days of time, going up to a year.

halferect ,

It’s a fine and possibly a year in prison for each count. But the judge can rule no jail time and just fines which is what I’m betting is what will happen.

kaitco ,

Sigh…there’s no real justice these days, is there?

halferect ,

I would love to be wrong but our justice system is made to help rich people break the law with little to no repercussions.

WarmSoda ,

And a year in prison for these people ends up being no actual time, or it’s a few weekends in a club.

TigrisMorte ,

The US has a Legal system, not a Justice system.

Dagwood222 , in ‘That ’70s Show' actor Danny Masterson gets 30 years to life in prison for rapes of 2 women

I feel sorry for his castmates. I’m sure they were counting on decades of reruns and residual checks.

Puzzle_Sluts_4Ever ,

Fuck 'em?

Kunis and Kutcher are “A-List” celebrities and have been for decades. Prepon and Topher have gotten quite a few roles over the years. Wilmer was on NCIS, I guess. And Kurtwood Smith and Debra Jo Rupp were legends even before the show. If FX stops showing reruns, whatever.

But also? They have had literally decades to come to terms with this. There was “talk” of this since the mid-late 00s and the case has increasingly become a thing over the years. And at least Prepon was also a scientologist and would have been aware of the cover-ups.

stevedidWHAT ,
@stevedidWHAT@lemmy.world avatar

I mean it sucks that it’s a missed money opportunity, (who wouldn’t love to coast on prior work they’ve done?) but a lot of the actors and actresses turned out just fine monetarily speaking idk. They’ll be alright.

I really only feel sorry for the people he raped and the people who have to handle these types of cases day in and day out.

bobman ,

I’m sure they’ll manage to get by.

If they can’t, they can just get a normal job like the rest of us.

We can’t all live off of the ‘work’ we did decades ago, lol.

    First, my commnet was a bit sarcastic. Obviously, his victims have it much worse than his castmates.

    Second, your proposal makes sense to me. On the other hand, I can see why the stations wouldn’t want the show on the air.

    thal3s , in Peter Navarro convicted of contempt of Congress for defying Jan. 6 committee subpoena
    @thal3s@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Former President Donald Trump’s top White House trade adviser Peter Navarro was found guilty Thursday of two counts of criminal contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena from the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

    A jury in Washington, D.C., convicted the former Trump administration official following a trial that lasted just over a day. Navarro’s defense team called no witnesses.

    Sentencing is set for January, and Navarro faces a maximum of one year in prison and a fine of $100,000 for each count.

    Good, now do all the others.

    athos77 ,

    It needs to be prison time, otherwise it's just the cost of doing business.

    Nougat ,

    If the punishment is a fine, it's only illegal for poor people.

    blanketswithsmallpox ,
    @blanketswithsmallpox@kbin.social avatar

    Hence why all sentences are and/or. Fine of $100,000 and/or 1 year old prison.

    It's the same in every state and federal application to my knowledge.

    RestrictedAccount ,

    Agreed. But OP was saying there needs to be some time in the mix.

    girlfreddy ,

    The article clearly states that he faces jail time AND a fine, not OR a fine.

    TenderfootGungi ,

    1 year is the worst he can get? Hopefully it is prison time as that fine is a joke.
