And that's a big part of why, despite everything Biden is doing, I am 100% voting for him. Because if Biden wins, there will be a 2028 election where we can hopefully find someone better, and I'm not convinced that there will be under Trump.

Four years of Trump came really close to turning this country into a kakistocratic dictatorship. I really don't want to give him another chance.

Where the hell did the idea of tipping your landlord come from, anyway? I've heard a few people in recent years bring it up as if it was an actual thing, and I'm just like WTF?

But they were all of them deceived, por un otra leche was made.

All these years later and he still doesn't understand that no means no.

Yeah, I feel nothing for these people. They knew he was a snake when they took him in.

100% agree with this. All of it.

I'm deeply dissatisfied with Biden. I'm angry with him for not pressuring Israel, and I was already angry at him even before that. And I will likely end up voting against him in the primary because of it. But realistically:

(1) He will be the Democratic nominee for President

(2) He is an infinitely better choice than the fascist who already attempted a coup once

(3) Either he or Trump will be the next president

There really is only one way to go in the general. Especially if you're here on Blahaj, which means you're either LGBTQ+ or at least friendly to us.

It's called "don't be evil".

There used to be another prominent tech company that has that as their credo. Wonder what happened to them.

In other words, this.

As a tech geek, I tend to look at "alpha" as it is used in software. In early development, unstable, not feature complete, and unsuitable for the public.

Some stores in the US do this, most notably Aldi. It's kind of a pain in the ass, especially in an increasingly cashless society.

Is it wrong that I kinda like "theydy" as a word for a classy nonbinary presenting femme?

Seems to fill a niche, similar to thembo.

I remember renting that game back in the day and not getting very far, so I have no idea if that's an actual screenshot or not. But it should be.

Also that game was most non-triumphant, but this is a most excellent message.

The version I always heard when I was young was, "If you're not a liberal at 20, you have no heart. If you're not a conservative at 40, you have no brain."

Here I am in my mid 40s, and I'm pretty sure the conservatives are the ones with no brains.

Who said Bee Movie was OK?

Because that shit was very not OK.

Yes, I know Aldi started in Europe.

My point was, they have stores in the US, and their stores in the US also do this. Which is unusual for US stores. Trader Joe's, for example (which is also owned by one of the Aldi companies) just has regular carts without the coin chain things.

That. It's funny, but I get in a lot of disagreements online, and very rarely does someone call me Hitler or a Nazi or what not.

As the saying goes, if five people call you an ass, buy a saddle.

I've seen that sticker in person, multiple times.

Also seen a few Teslas that were completely debranded.

So when Trump pulls another January 6, but succeeds this time and declares himself president for life, do you think that will make the situation better or worse?

I do remember a recent thing where a woman skater went full-ass TERF after having placed lower than a trans woman in a competition and making the right wing noise cycle, conveniently leaving out that they placed something like fifth and sixth behind a child. Google is being extremely unhelpful right now in finding it, though, instead showing me article after article about a separate story where a trans woman won a skating competition, which frame it in the most horrible way possible by making repeated reference to the fact that a 13 year old got second place. Lots of mentions of her "beating a 13 year old" and not being apologetic about it.
