Not sure if it’s my specific app or lemmy as a whole, but that spoiler tag isn’t working. Sometimes they’ll break if you put a space between the tag and your text.

Looks like reddit spoiler tags just don’t work in general

“Hey this is CVS, we have your prescription ready”
[Go to CVS]
“Oh, we received the prescription from your doctor but it isn’t filled yet. Can we fill it now? No, come back in 2 hours.”
There was some social commentary in that golden casino planet where the rich lived in excess while the poor barely got by (pay no attention to the Jabba behind the curtain)
And, of course, they cast minorities in leading roles!
I still have a sound card, because I have a stupid sound bar that works great except it only takes optical audio input.
alarmist, cost, growth, “India and China,” innovation, and resilience
If I had a nickel for every time sometime misspelled the name of the US 5c coin, I wouldn’t be rich but I’d probably have a couple bucks.
“China is the worst polluter on the planet and they need to do better”
[China invests heavily into green technologies]
“NO NOT LIKE THAT!”
Because unemployment isn’t really that low. When we talk about “people here now who could use those jobs”, we’re usually talking about people in dead end jobs that could use a career job.
So great, pull them into our elder care system, give them a career level up…now their old jobs are still unfilled. And while we’re super shitty as a country towards entry level service workers, we also as a country really want those jobs to be filled. So we’d need to fill that gap in the employment pool somehow.
It’s the “all your eggs in one basket” problem.
Just in case you misread the title (because I did at first), Namibia is explicitly not looking into other people’s pants now.
Why did it take until 2024? Humans being humans, I guess. Gotta go after some “other”.
While I agree with the sentiment here, this is pretty 1-dimensional. For one, US support of Ukraine actually has little to do with democracy and everything to do with national sovereignty. One nation with imperial ambitions invaded another nation without pretense, US provides aid to stave off that invasion.
Hypocritical given US history of imperialism? Sure. But it’s NOT imperialism under the mask of democracy.
Similar arguments apply to various points on this list. Supporting NATO is about maintaining a military alliance against common enemies, not spreading democracy.
“How long has it been since we’ve waltzed?”
“Oh, Gomez…hours.”
Every mushroom is closer to humans than to any plant.
Palm “trees” are a type of grass. That one fucks with me.
The coriolis force affects water in toilets, but about a thousandth as much as the shape of the toilet/the way water enters the bowl.
They crack nuts with their beaks, we had to invent a tool for that job.
The big neon Check Engine light is a nice cherry on top
Progressive tax brackets. This hypothetical tax is only on money earned over 10M/1M.
They also drop a cool shield in Elden Ring.
