Obligatory "You will own nothing and be happy"
To be fair some of these rentals are cheap enough to be worth it.
The last time I checked, it would cost me about 15 dollars to rent a vr headset for a month!

Abortion rights have won in every election since Roe v. Wade was overturned

And yet they are inconsistent on companies that pollute air food and water. Somehow when corporations do it knowingly for the profit motive it's God's will despite causing miscarriages and birth defects en masse.

To be fair, not every Chinese restaurant knows how to slice duck properly. The proper way slices the meat and skin off of the bones, so that each piece has a bit of meat and skin, and presents the flesh separately from the bones.
Some places though just hack into the carcass so that every piece has bone. They say it's 'fun.' I as an ethnic Chinese say it's ridiculous. I have had it done right and I have had it done poorly and surprisingly the price point is the same! Some places really skimp on the seasoning too, at the same price point.
Other dishes tend to be fairly similar across different restaurants but it seems like with duck you can really tell who gives a shit / was trained properly as a chef.

If other nations can have billionaires and we can't, and our country is vast and rich, we will be at a disadvantage.
The WANT of money is corrupting itself. Actually having the money itself is not needed. People who want money will destroy your little system, and throw your country into chaos, ruination and poverty, united by a conspiracy of common interests.
I would rather just regulate what needs regulating, within reason, with a gentle hand, and only a strong hand with the worst of violations. For the record, I would be much harsher than the us has tended to be when it comes to pollution, etc.

Live updates: Trump announces sweeping tariffs

The owners of the corporations own the govt. They are loyal to no company and no country. They can take their money anywhere, but so long as they are in the us they would prefer that the tax burden be shifted onto the people and off of them, with as few restrictions as possible on their own behavior.
The owners are still quite happy with trump. It's all of the littler con voters who are hopefully now reconsidering their vote.

Put on your big girl pants? The first time anyone with power says that to me, I am so out. I know my contributions won't be taken seriously by someone who speaks like that. If they want me back they'll have to pay a 300% asshole fee at a minimum.

I'd rather have a windfall tax that taxes some high percentage of all profits beyond a certain percentage in order to disincentivize this sort of profiteering.

I'd give loopholes for good works and define them specifically
If you really do mean no exceptions then that is genuinely an unpopular view.

Why does god? The vast preponderance of abortions happen in the same window as the vast preponderance of miscarriages, which can happen to 87 percent of fertilized embryos in the case of in vitro fertilization, and some other smaller but also shockingly high number for in vivo fertilization.
Also if you don't want 'innocent babies' to be killed why have such a hard on against prophylactics and plan b, especially since it takes 24h for sperm and egg to actually merge DNA and form a new organism? Why have an issue with birth control or porn or premarital conjugation and why make it everyone else's issue?
If women are getting abortions in the same period that God randomly gives miscarriages, I tend to think they are actually part of the same thing and that the feeling the prospective mother has about her future child being unwanted is just one final 'God given' protection against creating something broken.

how is Lemmy going for you?
Honestly? I'm wondering where all the quality Reddit posters ended up. Some Lemmy comments are even worse than the ones on Reddit, although the lack of gag posts is refreshing.

I would emphatically agree with him and list all the stupid shit he's doing as 'based and epic' - and fully in line with what Republicans have been advocating for nearly a century for.
It's fun to play pretend, at least online - which let's be honest has to be the only place you can get away with saying this shit now. People are losing their jobs / contracts, seniors are losing their social security. Saying this shit even around fellow Republicans has got to be a risky move.

Once Firefox lost session manager and downthemall, it was dead to me.
Nowadays I use edge. All the benefits of chrome plus it's leaner.
I use kiwi browser on phones for the addons, and because it's faster than Firefox

I'm upvoting because this should actually be unpopular. Intrusive ads are bad but less intrusive ones let you know who the patrons are of the otherwise highly expensive services you enjoy. That all of this gets paid for with ad money is nothing less than a miracle. If you don't want to see ads then don't give them your notice! I like being informed when new products go to market.
