Think this is a great time to remind myself that the south is dealing with this bs for soooo long(for about 15 years i think)... The government just keeps on failing yet they keep re-electing them...

This is new? 🤔😅 I’m glad you caught it tho!

Interesting fact of the day... there is a species of dog that is a single-cellular species.

Wow, democrats are really showing their colors today with this whole "boycott the CNN" thing... Unless I missed soemthing he is a presidential candidate, and one who so far hasnt been found guilty of anything that would disqualify him... and a popular one.

Yes he is a piece of shit, and yes he has no business being in politics... But its not CNNs job to make those decisions. Their job is to let the candidates say their piece and let the public decide from there (or the courts if there are legal questions).

As much as I hate Trump... I lost **so** much respect for the democrats today. Supporting censorship, specifically doing so with the intent of winning an election in their favor, is a new low... dont be that party...

Holy fuck that was something.... After 24 hours or so of being bombed one targeted my neighboorhood just now and the local sirens went off. I had to run to the bomb shelter. After a minute or two I heard the explosion overhead. Luckily I dont think it landed, it probably exploded in the air.. but damn.

@AmpBenzScientist @freemo @trinsec

When I lived in an even worse neighborhood, people got murdered(not specifically shot) almost daily. It became something not worth mentioning as it was so common- you would only care if it was someone you knew or was nextdoor.

Holy fuck that last bomb was close.... the whole building shook!

All day there have been explosions from missiles going off overhead... the shockwave shakes the walls... Its some crazy shit.... kinda surreal being in effectively a war zone with everyone going about their business as if it wasnt even happening.

@freepeoplesfreepress I agree with your assessment of universedon. It is a newer instance but very well run from what I've seen from afar.

Its been great having you on QOTO along with all of the other wonderful reporters and journalists we have here.

It was nice stumbling upon this thread about some time back and seei g the overwhelming support for this instance from the wider community:

Despite all its promises of equality and due process under law, America has always had its scapegoats.

I didn’t know it at the time, but when I was a child my entire community became scapegoats. The attack by Imperial Japan upon Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941—a “day that will live in infamy”—made most Americans look upon anyone with a Japanese name or face as the enemy.

May is AANHPI Heritage Month, so I want to take a moment to zero in on the history that led Asian minorities in the U.S. to come together as a group and demand America fulfill its promise of justice and equality: thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p

Does anyone know the origin of the TV trope nerdy glasses, specifically where the glasses are black and the bridge is taped with white tape. It was a popular trope in 80s but cant find any reference to the origin of the trope.

Sometimes the kindness you must do for a friend is to gently and carefully explain why you think they're making a mistake that's unnecessarily causing someone harm.

Sometimes you're the one getting the message.

Be thoughtful and together we can grow and do better.
