Love this. For years, tax exempt Churches have been praising Donald Trump and his Christofascist cronies. Despite this being forbidden, no one does jack-shit.

And then a few ultra-rich musicians share that they are not 100% on board with Trump’s 2020’s remake of the movie Idiocracy and he’s calling for a “major investigation”?

Someone’s mommy really didn’t love him

I definitely tried this with my (soon to be) ex-wife and my kids over a long period of time. We had “step mom appreciation night” every once in a while, and other special things.

Turns out it only helps if you’re actually telling the truth.

Sounds like you’re a great parent anyway, so props and good wishes to both of you.

History will not be kind to either Netanyahu, or the Biden/Trump presidencies.

This will mean fuck all the to Palestinians who became “displaced persons” just so the Israeli’s can have their own Lebensraum.

The rest of the world needs to get off its ass and ensure Gaza is rebuilt on Israel’s shekel for the Palestinians like a modern day Marshall plan. And ideally prosecute a couple of people for actively advancing genocide.

I think the one in the hat is The Edge (the guitarist in U2), so I assume the other one is Bono?

The web. It was good while it lasted.

Right to repair is only part of the solution. We’ll almost certainly need an economic shift that rewards (or compels) companies who make their stuff repairable. While we’re at it, we should also try and deal with planned obsolescence, too

40 months is slightly less the six years in the same way my pay check is slightly less than my CEOs

The problem you are describing is not malware or viruses. They’re just the tools.

The problem is capitalism, which turns everything free into something on which a profit can be made
