I’m so happy I caught that picture too because honestly if I flip it so it’s mirrored… that’s just the Ad Astra Per Aspara poster pose. And her name is Una… so…

Nope, not a community I’ve ever posted in. I deleted my ST.W account in January.

The bestest lil girl on the island!

I was banned from lemmy.ml for posting a meme about the fact that gay characters are removed from movies in China. Not even by a mod. By an admin. I’m not remotely surprised they’re pro-shitheap in general

Wait that entire thing was just an open beta? That you could spend money on?

Eeesh.

I just rolled my eyes so hard my retinas detatched

I want to like this game but I keep making stupid decisions and being so confused at the start that I just gave up. The game is fun but doesn’t do a fantastic job at explaining how to get going.

No worries! It’s a big ass post to try and condense. You did better than I did in any of my attempts lol

This is almost 100% accurate but there’s a slight caveat. I’d rephrase it as

The TL:DR; version is @Stamets@lemmy.world and the Risa mods had beef, Risa really stopped being a “Star Trek but anything goes” casual sort of space when the mod started doing whatever he wanted because Risa had ‘no rules’, so many just upped and left to tenforward.

The current Israeli government is guilty of perpetuating the cycle of violence thrust upon them during WW2.

The current Israel Government is equivalent to that of the Nazi party.

The current Israel Government is guilty of genocide, condoning war crimes and of crimes against humanity.

The Israeli government must stand trial for their actions and be held accountable. If that means their death or eternal incarceration, then so be it.

Do the crime. Pay the time.

Free Palestine, you fucking terrorists.

I don’t know whether to hurt myself or you.

Well done. Top tier.

Touch it

I award this comment a yike. Touch grass.

Spez removed him from the founders page on reddit a year or so after he became CEO. The most recent time.

I was unaware of the situation.

The black-backed dwarf kingfisher (Ceyx erithaca), also known as the three-toed kingfisher, is a pocket-sized bird in the family Alcedinidae. It was formerly considered as conspecific with the rufous-backed dwarf kingfisher and together the species complex was known by the English name “oriental dwarf kingfisher”.

Neat

So either they were going light on sanctions despite Russia invading and attacking a sovereign nation or they’re lying about adding sanctions just for diplomatic clout.

So much about this entire situation is infuriating.

First off, some of the stuff he disclosed and is being hounded over? Should have been disclosed. Was horrific monstrosities.

Second, Assange is a piece of garbage and I stopped giving a fuck about his freedom when he involved himself in the free and democratic elections of other countries and influenced them. He interferes in elections. There is no greater display of a disdain for personal freedom than that so I’m having a really hard time caring about his own. Hypocrite. You don’t get to violate a law and then claim protections of that law itself. The same way that bigots don’t get to be intolerant and then claim that you must be tolerant of their views.

Third,

Two years later, a British judge ruled that while the US had shown it had a legitimate criminal case against Mr Assange, he could not be transferred because he may try to harm himself.

“So you’ve got a legal case but he might try to kill himself so we have no choice but to allow him to get away with the crimes”

What a psychotically stupid decision and another demonstration, in a long ass line, that the UK Courts are a fucking clown show.

Fourth, that is the funniest possible image they could have used of Assange and I cannot stop laughing.

Who does the local media interview the most about this? Homeless people? Non-profits organizations trying to help despite lack of resources? Homeless shelters? Addiction services? Nope; the local chamber of commerce.

This is the most telling part of what I said in that we aren’t considered people. The News reporting on it affecting everyone other than the people it affects because the news is for people, not for disgusting animals. Unless you can water ski and are a dog.

They just don’t care. As far as they’re concerned the problem cannot be solved. If it’s existed for centuries then it’s because it doesn’t have an answer, right? They’re looking for the cheapest solution at this point because they “know” they’ll have to do it forever anyway so find the most cost effective solution.

There are two.

The first is to get them out of your city. Typically this is just done with a bus ticket. Relatively cheap but a lot get sent back or there ends up being problems with the other towns.

The second is to kill them. There’s no one to pay out the money to most of the time and the cost of a paupers grave is considerably cheaper than housing or prison.

It’s just purely financial. To people making these decisions, our lives are not worth the financial cost of sustaining them. It’s considered a drain on resources. It’s a complete depersonalization which is accepted by most of society because most of society depersonalize homeless people themselves either out of fear of unwarranted and random attack (which is rare as FUCK) or because it’s a reminder that their own lives could go very badly. Then there’s the propaganda people buy into and say that they either put themselves in this position with drugs or are dangerous.

To the vast majority of society we are not even considered human beings. To businesses and the government we aren’t considered human beings. We’re just a statistic.
