yeah i know, i was just pointing it out

in german we have a great proverb called “einbildung ist auch eine bildung”

unemployment doesn’t matter anyways, affordability does.

with what policy does trump support giving handouts to the people? none i can see. and that’s the problem.

a move backwards is still a move

and the dollar is weak, so inflation and job losses will continue.

weaker dollar means there’s more jobs though, because while it’s more expensive for you to buy products abroad, it’s cheaper for foreigners to buy your products, so that stimulates exports, which stimulates production

note that plants have both mitochondria and chloroplasts, while animals have only mitochondria

wasn’t there a person on twitter years ago that did this (and filmed and uploaded it) and half the internet broke into groups finding it hot and half found it disgusting … what was her name again?

edit: yes, the dog clearly enjoyed it (don’t ask me how i know)

their music is awesome!

examples? from, you know, actual life?

will offer users their choice […] “We’re not incentivized to push one model or the other,” he says. “So we’re going to try to go to market with multiple models.”

it could be worse

unless it’s an especially docile one that wants to be captured, i guess?

is this real or satire? i genuinely can’t tell

does that mean it’s also going to have PhD-level depression?

can confirm, had the most liquefying diarrhea of my life after having a bad case of constipation for 3 days and then eating 1-2 entire bags (300g each i think) of dry prunes in one go

This is time for quiet reflection

why do you think it’s called “analysis”

why would they drink Bug Lite when they’re concerned about their weight? i assume you mean they’re concerned that they have too little weight

the birds and the bugs

i don’t actually know why it’s called “the birds and the bees” (am not american, never had it in school) but i suspect it stands for the big and little flying things?

terrestrial arthropod

i’d like to differ

i sometimes call anything an insect that’s smaller than a small rabbit or lizard (depending on the mood of day) and has no spine. it’s colloquial use

“It wasn’t because Biden voters shifted to Trump—but because so many of them stayed home.”

I’m sorry but that is bullshit. That’s like saying that the protestor died because the gun released a bullet, completely forgetting that the police aimed at them in the first place.

Voters stayed home because they felt uninspired by whatever democratic candidates tried to represent. The thing is, i’m in europe and i do follow the news, but i barely ever heard any specific plans from Kamala. i never got the “oh wow that’s a good idea” thought, because there was poor communication, no exposure, etc. It’s all a bubble. If you’re inside it, it seems like there’s a lot of communication. But that communication doesn’t leave the bubble because it doesn’t speak the other’s language. It refuses to communicate with people who are not already on the same page. That’s why a lot of commenters are gonna reply to my comment, saying “no, actually, Kamala’s messaging was great”. Because they experienced it like that, because they actively seeked out the communication, and found it. But to the typical voter, who’s not specially politically involved, and not specifically seeking out the communication, they don’t get exposed to it.

On top of that what i’m strongly considering is that our political stances need to recognize that people really just want to live, both now and in the future. They want to have the economical perspective that they can buy nice stuff, and that the world is somehow gonna develop into a better tomorrow. A political party is gonna win exactly if it can provide these two to the people. That’s what we need.
