Top Democrat seems sour after Mamdani-backed candidates oust House incumbents

Reply in thread

They're not cowards. They know exactly what they're doing. Mamdani doesn't play ball with their established process. He is a threat to their paychecks and control. Mamdani just indicated to all of them "You might be the next one to lose your job if I decide I want someone else in your district".

They are not cowards. They are strategists prioritizing their own wants above that of the voters and human decency

No, it's really not, and you give them too much credit by saying that.

Greed for these people is about having the biggest dick in the room. It's about superiority and "winning".

It's far more distasteful than fear

EDIT: And furthermore, having fear doesn't make you a coward. Cowardice is, again, when there is something you want or think you should do but you refuse due to fear of something.

They just want to be rich. Even if it's fear of poverty, that's not cowardice.

Once again:

Blockchain is not synonymous with cryptomining

Blockchain does not require proof of work

Cryptocurrency and NFT grifting does not devalue blockchain as an immutable distributed ledger

I swear to god people just copy paste whatever makes them feel good without any effort at understanding

I'm trying so hard not to hate this post but you have given me so many reasons to

  • use of UwU in something I absolutely need to share with others

  • mismatched fonts

  • comic something font

  • no human readable data next to the QR code

  • mismatched gradient radii in the corners

Make it stop 😭

EDIT: For those who care, this comment falls into the category of "said in jest, meant in earnest". I know it's all on-brand and comedic, but my gut reactions are what they are 😂

Trump watched as girl’s newborn was murdered & dumped in lake, Epstein document says

I hate that this particular story is being picked up. it's a single report to the FBI from someone decades after it allegedly happened. Literally the best possible example of hearsay

The Epstein docs have so much far more damning evidence that is verifiable. Focusing on what amounts to a single phone call to the FBI - something I could do myself tomorrow - makes us look like bafoons

it is 100% a CPAP mask. you can see the other strap mark arching toward the top of the nose, and the mask mark across the bridge of the nose.

but yes, I too hope I'm wrong because ball gag would be way better funnier

source: am CPAP wearer, have strap marks, don't own ball gag

except if you read the accompanying text they already stated the issue by accidentally unpacking an archive to their user directory that was intended for the root directory. that's how they got an etc dir in their user directory in the first place

Side ruling

As an android ROM hacking and foss enthusiast, this meme is dumb as hell.

It's not called side-loading because it's not from the play store or whatever. it's called side loading because the installation is not triggered from within the on-board software.

If you're using Graphene OS and install software from F-Droid, that's not sideloading. If you take the Play Store version of an APK and install it via ADB from your PC such that it functions just like it was installed from the store, full authorization included, that IS sideloading.

Don't take the technical language we've been using for decades and reinterpret it to push some agenda in a meme.

Call the situation what it is: taking away product ownership rights.
