It's Saturday 10/24/2026. Hey, What's Going On!

I finally succumbed to (another) autistic stereotype and got RimWorld. I have accepted that my weekend will be dedicated to figuring out how to manage and expand my newfound colony.

For anyone not familiar: it’s basically the Sims but you get to tell them to build and hunt things instead of have social interactions 😆 I’m currently figuring out how to tame and recruit a wild human.

[Video] Unites States regime officer executes a 1 year old black baby after his mother did not stop the car for being accused of shoplifting diapers and baby clothes from Walmart

Zero reason for this response if the goods aren’t insured. In what sane universe is it morally justified to hurt anyone over material items??

FFS on top of that it was diapers. Meaning mom and friend were desperate to care for their baby. The system is so disgustingly broken.

Banned from Lemmy.ml for saying Zionism is Racism

I mean, Zionism is the advocacy of an ethnostate, so yes obviously it’s racism? It’s asserting (a very particular flavor of) Jewish supremacy, specifically with the intent of eliminating Palestinians.

The comment itself might be seen as splitting hairs but to ban over that is silly. This is ML though, and getting into the weeds over words turns into a massive spiral in leftist spaces as it is. Even more so in small comms (Lemmy is small), so it’s not surprising that the mod went so overboard. PTB

Israel shoves its Jewishness in the face of Palestinians as part of the genocide, yes. They march in the name of Jewish supremacy. I can’t imagine not feeling resentment towards that on top of the horrific nightmare they’re already subject to.

Sane Jewish folks are already on the side of Palestine and this isn’t a conversation to begin with in most level-headed discussions. It’s understandable to make a quick disclaimer when introducing oneself, but I’ve never personally experienced it go beyond that irl.

I’d chalk it up to terminally online people being terminally online. Doesn’t make it right but hopefully adds some perspective to a stressful situation

The Right to Exist

Oh jeez poor little angel :( glad to see he’s safe and well cared for.

It’s really hard not to feel anger and resentment towards people who do this to animals, wild or domesticated. It’s heartbreaking to think what could have happened had he not been so lucky as to be rescued.
