I’m just so grateful that so many great scientists fled nazi germany. Also that those who stayed behind (this is controversial and not known for sure) hindered and delayed Germany’s nuclear weapons program.

Sure enough! Thanks, that was fun to watch again.

Isn’t that step two?

I feel like step one was “get a box,” but I could be misremembering.

She did her time and has been out a long time already.

It says the attacker was driving a taxi.

Kill the aliens.

Srsly tho, it’s not about the tech they have or the 1000x power. Any jamming can be circumvented, and humans would have a much greater motivation to adapt than the aliens would.

Of corse she should run!

So should a bunch of other democrats, some with different ideas. All the party has to do is stay out of the way and the people will choose better than they could.

I don’t see them there.

Best thing about Mastodon is no insidious algorithm forcing stuff on you to specifically make you angry.

Dates written in a numbers only format are not about matching the spoken language. You also would not say, “let’s meet on twelve eleven twenty twentyfour.”

I call bullshit. They don’t do mugshots with a jacket and scarf on.

Kinda makes “bye bye” seem a little weird, eh?

The saying is really about asking god to remove obstacles from your path and facilitate faster travel. A little like “goodbye” is a very shortened “may god be with you.”

Others have explained that it depends on when, but I want to add this: when a VP becomes pres. through succession, the speaker does not become VP automatically. The new pres. picks whoever they want. Ford chose the governor of NY, for example.

He thinks he has nothing to lose by demonizing people who can’t vote. But lots of folks who can vote care about those people and stand in solidarity with them.

I remember Kamala making a very specific concrete proposal. She said she would support the bill that Trump killed a couple months back.

Many here will be seeing this for the first time. For others it will be a fun reminder of something they haven’t seen for a long time. Still others will find it to be the same old tired shit they’re sick of.

When you see the same old tired shit on Lemmy (or any social media), just move on. There will be plenty that is new to you.

Electing someone who believes that we should have laws and enforce them is exactly what we should do.

When she was a prosecutor, it was not her job to change the laws or decide which ones to enforce. If we don’t want non-violent drug users and truants prosecuted, then we should change those laws. We have a process for that, and it doesn’t include prosecutors making those decisions for us.

And many “flowers” are not flowers at all. Poinsettia is the first one that comes to mind, but there are lots of them.

Nixon as well. It’s almost like pattern.

Let’s give her large majorities in congress, then she can fix the court.
