I loved the cat subreddits that were originally jailbait or otherwise banned and turned into cat subreddits.

Pocketpussy, wetpussy...they were amazing.

I see it more like this:

I don't think Lemmy would count as social media but that said, you can easily create a dummy account that just, for example, posts pictures of moths or beans or bread or whatever.

That sucks mate. I know we're all facing existential threats on a regular basis so depression and anxiety are high among the population.

But that doesn't mean you don't matter. You matter.

Glad you're getting the help you need!

Many red states have banned wearing masks at protests.

Unbelievable that there are some Americans in politics who wake up every day and consciously decide they want to put their foot on someone else's neck so that they can feel superior, even if it means they are worse off.

Ftfy

even if they were, the denial of due process is the most abhorrent part of this.

Giving ICE a large heaping benefit of doubt, every person who has been deported should have had their day in court.

This is rotten all the way down. The legislative branch has done fuck all. States governments haven't done shit to stop ICE. Judiciary hasn't held anyone into account.

We, the people, can't do anything except watch in horror because we're all scared shitless.

I hate questions like this. Because for conservatives, taking bribes isn't an exclusionary issue. They would vote for the literal Antichrist if it meant they could oppress someone.

Sure they might care that their particular conservative representative not take bribes but if that representative took bribes but was also racist, they are going to vote for them.

It's almost like old school Google front page.

My problem is the seed shells. I have to take a shop vac to the ground cover or it dies from lack of sun.

Depressingly, SCOTUS has ruled that you really don't have the same rights at border crossings as you do once you've passed through.

This applies to citizens as well as foreign nationals.

There was an article during Obama's years that showed the negotiation tactics of Republicans and the summary was exactly what you wrote: Republicans draft bills with shit that they know will anger Democrats, but they'll use it to pass the other shit that they want to pass.

Democrats fall for it every fucking time.

The article went on to say that compromise occurs far more often on the conservative side more often than the liberal side, meaning that Democrats often will give up far more than Republicans will.
