I smuggled 4 import vehicles in my butt when I crossed the Mexican border yesterday. They’ll never take me alive.

Thelemite here—first off, I want to see an active community, which means allowing for a wide variety of posts.

That said, I would prefer it if we stayed away from spooky drawings or witchy selfies so that the content can remain focused on actual occult practices.

I think a blend of videos, books, personal experiences, and magickal experiments would be a good mix of content for a Lemmy occult community. It would be cool if it was as helpful and educational as the linux communities are.

26 accounts out of how many thousands? And they aren’t even claiming that most of them were really underage?

Sounds like the verification system is working pretty well to me.

I feel so young right now—I know what it means.

🍆 = I want your dick
🍑 = Between these cheeks
🥵 = Because I’m so hot for you I’m gagging for it right now

What the fuck am I watching?

You are wrong, unfortunately. It sure would be a lot easier if our biology worked that way.

Johnny 5 is alive.

You don’t have to lie, you just have to appeal to emotion with your pitch. Bernie was a great example of a populist candidate who knew how to make people feel passionate about things without lying to them. He got a lot of flack for repeating the same lines, but that is all that some Americans can handle—a slogan. He was smart enough to pick ones where most Americans instantly knew what he was about, and it felt good.

Nobody really knows what “build back better” means, and it sort of implies that we’ve been damaged in some way and need repair. MAGA doesn’t really mean shit either, but it implies that we’ve tended to be pretty great, and all we need is to remember those times and recreate them. It is supercharged with Hollywood’s nostalgic eye towards the past, and it doesn’t even require you to know why Medicare is good to want to get on board with it.

So, from that perspective, democrats need marketing. They need meme reacts, iconic looks, and coolness, and they need to stop trying to stifle the candidates they have who exemplify those qualities.

If they can’t figure that shit out, they’re going to keep losing at moments that they sorely need to win.

Am Texan. Am American. Love being both, and so do most of my neighbors. We aren’t seceding, and Abbott is an asshole of the highest proportion.

Also, we do have our own power grid. It sucks and nearly kills us on a regular basis. That’s Abbott’s fault too.
