It really shows there’s a Hitler in every single one of us

No, it shows there is a Hitler in a lot of people, not in everyone.

Yup, even killing 99% of the population leaves 8,00,000 people, and many of them won’t develop cancer fast enough to keep the population from continuing.

No thanks, I enjoy watching tankies and other terrible people get downvoted into oblivion in an exchange with one other poster instead of getting a ton of repetitive replies telling them they are wrong.

It doesn’t take a lot of effort for a few shitty folks to silence people they hate by quickly down voting anything that comes from a small instance. While the instance that I know of disabled the downvotes to improve the experience for users of their instance, I don’t see their stuff in the All feed very often so they are probably still being silenced outside their instance.

I don’t remember people talking about the metaverse except for mocking the legless mii inspired avatars.

There were a lot of ads pretending to be articles.

Can we jam some crypto and NFTs into that bad boy?

Lucifer was cast out of hell for forming the first union.

I’ve seen it used in media far more than in person. Mostly for soldiers that stuck around after wars wound down or wealthy people buying fancy homes in tropical locations.

The people I’ve worked with in tech from Scotland and England who have lived in the US long term but without becoming citizens don’t even use the term. Honestly most people don’t really use labels, just refer to someone in tech being ‘from a country’ when it comes up whether they became citizens or not.

Migrant worker is the term for expats who aren’t white.

I’ve never heard the term used for anyone with dark skin or from anywhere other than the US, Canada, or western Europe.

I wonder if enough technicians go to heaven could the pearly gates can be automated so St Peter can finally retire.

They see themselves on an extended holiday of multiple decades.

On the stovetop I like to use a ceramic non-stick to reheat so I don’t need oil to keep i lt from sticking. The goal is evenly heating, so it doesn’t need to hold a lot of heat.

I’ve always wanted to do the cast iron pizza!

I am occasionally civilized!

Air fryer is the best, although sometimes I have to cut them down to fit in the trays on mine.

Microwave can work for some types of pizza, but I find it works way better with a reduced power setting and a little longer so it heats more evenly.

Frying in a stovetop pan can work for hand tossed or thin pizza, but I haven’t had luck with pan or thicker crusts.

Microwave on high is the worst though. Edges of cheese gets hard if it is long enough tonwarm the middle.

They are all trash buttons too.

If someone attacks you and you hit them back immediately you are defending yourself agsinst further violence. If they keep attacking you and.you fight back multiple times you are still defending yourself. In warfare that might involve attacking their supply lines and even entrering the territory of the invaders to get them to stop invading.

In warfare retaliation would be attacking them a few years after they stopped invading or attacking non-military targets to ‘even the score’ or something like that. Israel bombing schools and hospitals in response to Hamas attacks would be retaliation, because they aren’t just fighting back.

Ukraine hasn’t retaliated in any coverage that I have seen.

That isn’t what retaliation means.

Saying it is a defense against invaders is being neutral, because that is what is happening. Avoiding a direct statement is the opposite of letting the facts speak for themselves.

To be clear, the Republicans being organized means the Republicans will be able to do more lasting damage. Trump is just the face, and while he is a terrible person who causes damage through chaos, the malicious Republicans as a whole are responsible for whatever damage happens during his turn.

That is important to keep in mind, because even if they cart him off to jail on day 2 of his term they will continue to do all the damage they can.

Sounds like a modern version of leg warmers, which started as a functional thing that turned into fashion.

So probably a combination of both.
