Goddammit I actually ate the onion on this one lol the headline got me before I saw the community.

Well sure, they don’t get to vote for President so why would he care

Oops, sitting

Years ago a Psych episode had Burton say “all the men’s health journals agree” that it’s better for your circulation, and I never looked back (nor fact checked).

The most surprising thing I read on this thread

MVP for direct link, thank you 🙏

Valheim is one of the better in the genre. Idk why but the building is so satisfying!

Honestly I’m with you. It recently told me I’ve watched > 1,620 hours of YouTube since switching to Premium a few years ago.

There’s a lot to hate about Google and price gouging, but honestly this is a service that’s well worth the convenience for me.

Instructions unclear, discussed sexual boundaries with my players.

I agree, I actually thought no particular reason was given.

I do like the new guy though, he did great in the finale of season 2.

It’s supposed to represent Ben Kenobi from the original star wars I think. Or more generally, a wizard-y sage robe.

Edit: it’s also just a meme, with its own understood meaning.

Thank you for actually providing an explanation beyond stating the word “science”

There might be a “fixed height” setting in the display settings.

A lovely lady behind the Wendy’s

Scrolled through a ton of comments but honestly this sums it all up for me. Lemmy isn’t large enough to support niche memes and content.

You should add Miami Connection to your list. Karate rock stars fight against ninja bikers for…reasons, honestly I can’t recall the plot, it’s just 80s campy greatness.

The irony is palpable.

What if corporations didn’t count as people? If they didn’t worship the almighty dollar and put profits over people? Could capitalism work?

No idea, probably not, but I’m not an economist. And humans are notoriously bad at screwing up basically every form of government.

Also, that wasn’t my viewpoint, but you gotta admit that a lot of things in life would be better if human nature were completely (positively) different. Our lizard brains are wired for self preservation.

110% agree.

I could say “you know, I guess I can kinda see why people thought free market capitalism would work”

And someone will come out of the woodwork like “I can’t believe you think billionaires profiting off exploitation is actually a good idea”

First of all, no? Lol I’m saying I understand why people might think it would work, but for some reason forget that we as a people are generally selfish. Human nature and corruption and all that, people in power hoard power.

You mean like our glorification of gun ownership, the military, and war in general?

The thing is, there are clear ways to regulate gun ownership (even without banning them), whereas solving the mental health crisis is far more vague and subjective.
