Dad joke for coders? Ooooo… you!
Ain’t that the truth.
If you pull up the ewg.org working map of the perflouro- contaminated sites in the country, it’s horrifying.
Thing is, if the Pro Publica article is correct, these chemicals are afflicting male reproductive viability at the EXACT same time the Trump Administration’s cabinet is filed with natalist-leaning advisors… and they just don’t see it as going into part of why men are fathering fewer children.
They lay the blame on feminism and the birth control pills.
Thing is, globaly, male fertility has been falling for decades. Wanna bet part of it is tied to chemical exposure?
But… we won’t go there…
A 56 y/o half-brother that I would do almost anything for and a step-sister that… well… whatever.
Yikes! Y’all gotta eat better if your poop scrapes are cementing themselves to the bowl…
Damn!
Look at the demographic of any “left” and you generally find kids that don’t understand how societal power works.
Taking a few classes on sociology and reading Marx is fine and all that, but they need to understand the framework of conformist, consumerist America and leverage that… and as it’s anathema to what Marx says… they’ll forever be smacking their heads against the walls.
Then they grow up and become Wall Street brokers.
Sause: Am 60, and have seen this same shit happening over and over - for decades.
This is it exactly.
And I kind of like that there are no total upvote/downvote stats tied to our accounts.
Prevents karma farming so it disinclines the behavior to rage-bait or post controversial items for attention.
(Remember u/unidan? Guy karma farmed hugely and eventually got rumbled creating some brouhaha over the difference between crows and jackdaws. Absolute stupidity that got the better of him…)
The content is more the focus here…
A face so ugly, the dog won’t play with him.
Thing is, it’s not half as ugly as he is on the inside.
Read a bit of history on him, the guy is massively fucked up, and I wonder what secret trauma he’s got that made him like he is. It goes beyond just being a young man that was angry at the world and has grown bitter as he’s aged.
It’s likely something emotionally crippling and so traumatic that he will never face it.
This makes me glad that I haven’t bought any Nestle products since the infant formula scandal of the 80’s
Unfortunately, the violence directed at them is what many on the right and even Trump himself want, because it will be used as a pretext to interfere in the mid-term elections coming in 2026.
I mean, they’re going to try anyhow, and stirring up shit will just give them that much more leverage to do so.
As rage-inducing as Trump is, just biding ones time and voting and getting everyone you know to vote in the mid-terms for the Democrats - even if the candidate is an absolute stinker - is what is needed to put the brakes onto this administration.
Thing is, those are guardsmen. Probaly are called up and pulled from their families to end up in Chicago… All for the benefit of a deflecting old fuck that doesn’t want us to remember that he’s likely on the Epstein list for doing the dirty to underage girls.
This is the EXACT thing we’re supposed to forget. Epstein.
The weird thing is apparently, I wasn’t allowed to delete my account last night. I thought I did, but I went back not too long ago and on a lark, signed in again. Account’s empty of all my unarchived posts - since I deleted it all, but I still have access. Think I’m going to see if the PM’s work and just start hoovering interesting articles and items from there. WTF, it’s not like I didn’t bring content to the site… Gonna take the best of it back and bring it here. Fuck it.
I think it’s weird that a 21-23-year-old dating an older person is really weird and inappropriate…
Honestly, often for younger women it’s a romp with somone that knows what they’re doing.
The BEST lay of my 20 years old life - and i’m now married for 30+ years - was a 45 year old guy and we hit it off for a few glorious months of sex that was incredible. Man knew EXACTLY what he was doing and twisted me up into positions I couldn’t get into now if the husband and I tried…
The whole idea that it’s unnatural or weird is an odd one. I worked for a ton of men that worked like slaves though their youth to get successful and in their 40’s finally found young women to start beautiful families with.
I was a 14 years long redditor that was more into the arts and graphics and from the time of the IPO, my feed pivoted to much more rage-bait content and subs appearing on my homepage that were completely unknown to me. Definitely some site-wide fuckery going on, that’s changed the nature of that beast. Moreso now since they have corporate investors and within the last week or so, a whole bunch of bad reports about the data not being used for AI training as much as they hyped it up. Methinks they’re pivoting to the right in order to appease their investors…
AI, maybe, but upheld by a person upon appeal.
I honestly think those appeal responses are bullshit and no one is actually reading them. Maybe paid members will have their appeals looked at but I doubt anyone else does.
That is what happened to me… the bots banned me within a minute for a metaphorically based - though salty - post. 14 years.
Thing is, I noticed a change in the algorithm not too long after the IPO since my homepage started in with more rage-bait subs and many were ones I’d not visited or even heard of. It was subtle but also kinda disheartening. I decided to manually delete all of what I could and as I was going through the posts I noticed that the art subs I used to go to had all but disappeared on my home page.
I used to go to photoshopbattles all the time and as I was scrolling my home pages, it was nowhere to be seen. Nor was AppleHelp, VintageApple or MacPro…
Delete all your Reddit bookmarks and favorites and find a lemmy community to launch yourself into. I picked gaming and a few news ones and so far, it’s fine… Even moreso that I found the old.lemmy.zip page and it’s comfortable to me as I was dedicated to old.reddit and RES.
As horrifying as it will be… it’s going to take some godawful disease like polio to rear it’s ugly head again for the vast muddling middle to wake the hell up.
I remember a friend of my aunt who was in a wheelchair - she was in her 70’s when I was a teenager and she had gotten polio as a little girl. Lovely woman, and a real example of what can happen without vaccines.
God save us, generational amnesia is a thing, and we’ve gotten complacent because vaccines haved worked so well for the last 75 years.
Who’s paying those assholes?
Right now… nobody.
Gummint’s on shut-down, so all of those “fine paratrooping folks” are working for free… This is why Trump is having a hissy about the government going back to work… NOW!
Apparently his mom has disowned him, aka RFK Jr. and the rest of the Kennedy clan…
Osama Bin Miller, when your own family wants nothing to do with you.
Bwahahahah!
Wait until it dies and earns it’s “angle” wings!
(…am gonna let myself out now… )
