The Democrats won’t win an election while opposing fracking. O&G is far FAR too powerful to let that happen. If Harris stood firmly against fracking, then the opponent would win - be he (and it will be a he) Trump, Musk, or David “Son of Sam” Berkowitz.

No, I’m not exaggerating.

They would, and they do.

But because they’re rich and determined to play both sides of the fight, they also pour some (less) money towards the Democrats to have some leverage.

Frankly, I don’t see much of a problem with this.

They’ll sell the “Apple” charging cable for $40 or something fucking insane, but as long as you can buy and use a normal USB-C cable that does exactly the same thing, go for it.

Of course being Apple, they will probably void the warranty or add an identifier to their cables so that nothing else works. In that case, I hope the EU bankrupts them completely.

You misspelled 2026.

As hilarious as this is, it doesn’t really address the question of whether farts will maintain their potency in a jar, or if they’ll degrade in the presence of air.

If farts never lost their potency, the entire planet should be unbearable by now.

Just saw “The Play That Goes Wrong,” and it is a two hour masterpiece of a play within a play.

I see videos of complete productions on youtube. Go watch one.

Make no mistake - Trump would do that and more.

“Yeah, we killed her. We’d killher again if we could. Whatcha gonna do about it?”

Have you played Morrowind? Best Elder Scrolls game by far, in my opinion.

And so hard to play, so yeah.

Not gonna happen. It’s a lot of work, and they’d rather spend it making new games (for legitimate reasons).

OK, I know nothing about furry social interactions, but non-furry cons - comic, scifi, etc., are all generally quite welcoming.

The best advice I got as an introvert who moved to a different country was that I don’t have to be outgoing, I just have to pretend to be outgoing. Acting, essentially. It was surprising how easy it was to fake sociability, to the point that I made a few friends.

Seriously?

Phone the cops. Now.

She is female.
She is black.
She is strong.
She is not a puppet.

She is EVERYTHING that the power structure fears, because she will be hard to control, and likely cost them a lot of money and power.

Open revolution is about the only avenue left.

Here come the accidents!

You do NOT need to post this to every technology group on every Lemmy instance.

Yeah yeah, Linux is our saviour.

I call bullshit. Charge Microsoft criminally. Sue them into the ground! We will never get enough people to truly harm them just by leaving, so we need to FUCKING DESTROY ANY COMPANY THAT PULLS THIS BULLSHIT!

That’s great. Want to tell us more than their names?

In the US…

shooting a gun is legal. Going to the bank is legal. Shooting a gun in a bank is illegal.

So many incorrect assumptions in this single question.

First off, Roe v. Wade didn’t establish absolute autonomy over the body, only protected the right to legal abortion.

Secondly, how about men? One could argue that they’ve had all the bodily autonomy that they could hope for, but prostitution in the US is still illegal. Except that that’s not entirely true - because Nevada.

The government has the authority to govern and establish laws. If they decree that prostitution is illegal, than it’s not really a question of bodily autonomy as much as it is about business law.

You can’t legally sell heroin on the street. You can’t take someone else’s car. And you can’t sell your body for sex.

Youtube is waging a war against their customers. If they win, they lose; and if they lose they win.
