It’s basically a mirror of his campaign.

That’s the issue I have with blocking NSFW too. I don’t want to see porn, but there is NSFW stuff I do want to see. You’re forced to throw the blanket over everything, regardless of what it is.

Apollo. Everyone in my house did. Two have stopped using reddit entirely, I’m still checking on a couple of communities until their counterparts take off here. I’m using Dystopia there now because I’ll never, ever download their shitty app.

You’re the best! :)

Wow, this looks beautiful! Love the selection of icons, too. It already feels great and I can tell this is gonna be stellar. Just being able to pin communities is something I really missed from Apollo/reddit so it’s rad that you’ve already got it in there! 🙌

Edit: Any chance we can get rotation when viewing images so we can view them in landscape? As an older lady my close vision is going and I often need to go landscape to see/read things better. :)

I was born here in 1970, genius. 😂 Back when the Valley was 213 area code. Did you even know that it used to be 213 and wasn’t always 818? JFC, some people. In & Out sucks, you spend more in gas waiting in their fucking lines than you save by eating their shitty ass fries and weak burgers. You’re acting like I slapped your mother.

Overrated anyway. I was born and raised in L.A. and there are a million better burgers to be found. Oh, and their fries really just suck. :|

We have very elderly mothers, and sisters with cancer, so my family still masks. I smile at people all the time, they smile back, everyone goes away feeling good. I don’t understand how some people get so worked up over masks. 🤦‍♀️

Yeah, it’s a bad, bad time to be a wild bird right now, or anything that eats them. The list of mammals who’ve died from it is growing, and sea lions are getting wiped out by the thousands. I think only Australia and Antarctica are still virus-free (for now).

It doesn’t keep me up at night, but I’m definitely watching!

It’s necessary where I live too (inland Los Angeles) and we also keep our thermostat at 80 all summer. The summer power bills really hurt, but we have to. We’re unfortunately not in a position for solar financially but I really wish we were!

I’ve been following H5N1 pretty closely for several months and one of the first things I did on Lemmy was set up a community to post news stories to. [email protected]

5 more of the deceased cats in Poland were confirmed today to have died of H5N1 for a total of 34 now. There was a report that one of the owners provided a sample of raw chicken that had been fed to the cats, and it tested positive for H5N1. This was almost immediately followed up by a very defensive press conference with the Polish government insisting it wasn’t true; Poland supplies about 20% of the European market for chicken. Make of that what you will.

That none of the owners got sick is great news, but no one should be breathing easy about what’s happening globally. :|

Are you really trying to draw an equivalence between Obama and Trump? Bruh.

I adore you, MrCrankyBastard.

I started a community to track the H5N1 global outbreak but I do NOT want to moderate it long term; if it picks up, the anti-vax/Plandemic people are going to start showing up (they already do sometimes in the subreddit for it). I feel like opening the doors to Threads is going to hasten that.

Oh, bullshit. 🙄 Stop letting people manipulate you into believing things that aren’t true. You’re being the perfect tool for the people who are trying to undermine education in this country by spreading their lies and propaganda. Is that who you want to be? A gullible tool?

It makes you an awesome ally. 👍

Oh for sure. I always enjoy hearing how awful California is. 😂 Total lawless hellhole here, I tell you, with a tyrannical governor who’s going to force you to buy an EV that you can’t drive once the sun goes down because solar doesn’t work!

Boy howdy, am I glad I live in the really really real America and not whatever shithole America this lunatic is foaming about.
