Looks like an endless spiral of gun violence. A bit like Schrödingers gun ownership law. You are allowed to own a gun and you are allowed to protect yourself and your family with a gun - but then you are not allowed to do so when the police is at your door, cause they have the right to shoot you if you own a gun and use it to protect yourself.
Just wow. But guns are never the problem, am I right?
Ah and of course ACAB, like seriously
I’m really surprised how well the “flooding the zone with shit” tactics are working out… Get a grip people. Focus on what’s really important.
“Elon Musk is a patriot working to fulfill President Trump’s mission to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse,” Harrison Fields, a spokesperson for DOGE, said in a statement. "Backbenchers should celebrate the selfless efforts of America’s most innovative entrepreneur, who is dedicating time to support American taxpayers and hold Washington accountable to the people of this great nation.”
Wtf. only the government should be allowed to criticize the government, because everybody else is a backbencher. What are these people, 12 year olds playing Fortnite? Just wow.
And the crazy part of this philanthropy is that there’s no guarantee to anything. These oligarchs live like kings amongst men and we can see ourselves lucky to be in the light of their philanthropic sun.
I mean yes thank you Bill Gates for not being such a dipshit like Elon, but I also think that this kind of power should not be in the hands of individuals ever.
Cause as you said: the harm they caused (actively or passively by f.e. not paying taxes in countries outside the US and therefore stealing money from governments and people) can never be fixed by any philanthropy.
You just don’t get that kind of rich without being an asshole along the way.
That’s what I wanted to say as well. Not only national video calls but also regularly calling across the globe in video group calls, no problem whatsoever.
It wasn’t easy to establish back in the day, but since Skype is no alternative anymore, it should be a very good argument in favor of signal.
Only downside I had today: can’t have the same account on two Android devices. Desktop (Linux in my case) no problem to Link to my signal app on my android phone, but I was not able to use it on my android tablet today. Or was it just me, and there is a way?
Nothing means anything anymore, you can just write and say whatever you want and half of the population will believe what you say, the other half will cry out about fake news.
When will the aliens finally attack earth to bring us destruction and unity?
Never really thought about it but that really must’ve been the plan all along. Nothing else makes sense, since nothing he touched in recent years turned to gold - which is kind of unnecessary if you already own more then a billion of anything…
I was curious out of reflex for a second, and then I remembered it was “from the Internet” so I better don’t
This detail makes all the difference. At least one of you guys will have the energy, and you’ll just have to manage your lives very transparently. Rather then expecting things, say them out loud to each other, communication will make a big deal.
You’ll be fine, as long as you manage your expectations of the life you will have together clearly.
And although it might seem problematic to your son, just quote " life uuuugh finds a way" and he’ll accept you for the dinosaur you think you are. You’re both grown ups and don’t need each other’s opinions on life, but should treat each other with respect.
Ich kann nur hoffen, dass du Recht hast. Vor allem haben wir kein gemeinsames Feindbild, welches sich zur Bundeswahl ja klar Richtung Migration zeichnen ließ.
Ich hoffe, dass wir in Sachen Einigkeit weiter voran kommen, sehe aber klare Differenzen zwischen zB Grün und Links. Auch aus der jeweiligen Position heraus, wenn Grün regieren will und faule Kompromisse macht (hust 10 Punkte Plan) und Links sich als ewige Opposition sieht.
Und so dreht sich das alles einigermaßen im Kreis.
Aber ja, auch die AfD war sehr lang (und ist es insgeheim noch immer) sehr zerstritten. Ich hab nur das Gefühl, dass so etwas wie Basisdemokratie ohne strikte Hierarchie ideal für Splittergruppen ist. Die Piratenpartei ist da ein gutes Beispiel.
Das ist so ein Grundproblem aus der linken Philosophie, und ich glaube dass es gut und schlecht zugleich ist. Wenn Hierarchie, Autorität und Folgsamkeit zum Feind erklärt sind, dann kann jeder alles und jeden hinterfragen.
Man wünscht sich manchmal die Einigkeit der Rechten und den Willen, für ein gemeinsames Ziel individuelle Interessen und Ideale beiseite zu schieben - aber eigentlich wünscht sich das niemand. Der Rattenschwanz ist ja auch unerträglich, entschuldigt den Euphemismus. Faschismus ist ja eher die Ratte als der Schwanz.
The comparison to Darth Vader hurts though…
Points for creativity, that’s for sure
Ihr seid so Korinthenkacker. Aber ja, bei dem Gedanken habe ich mich auch schon erwischt. Und dann trotzdem Platz gemacht für ne alte Frau. Inkonsequent bis zuletzt.
Someone had to. And I thank you for it, although it always makes me cry for Tasha.
Don’t be so sure that these lies, or “this style of politics” is only enabling the downfall in the US. The Internet is breaching the barrier of what once was the big pond separating us from the US.
It’s already used in modern politics around the world as justification for similar topics. Some people even demand “DOGE-like” actions against bureaucracy in countries of the EU. Be a little more like Musk.
Shit’s staining.

(ich frage mich auch oft, ob das \s nun nötig ist, aber ein paar digitale Minuspunkte ist es mir meistens wert, zu riskieren)
Perfect example for what I’m still pondering about. Maybe this will help my own journey.
I’ll check out infomaniak!
