Could you remind us who was the Pope before Jesus?

Saint Peter or are you trying to put words in OPs mouth lol?

For those using Imagus, make sure to click the link still. The entire comic doesn’t get blown up from the thumbnail.

Which reminds me, tell you mom she still owes me money for the Uber.

Thanks for the hot tip. I had no idea. I already had a duplicate username over on Lemmy.World so it’s not too hard of a jump. Even still 13 hours, 4 days, 16 day old posts being the top posts doesn’t bode well lol.

Sad !anime noises… I miss episode discussions.

For those confused like myself or lazy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romulus_and_Remus

The image lower down explains it plenty lol.

Is there a /c/oneorangebraincell yet?

The wintergatan marble machine is boring but I’m fascinated with it every time I watch and listen lol.

AACAB I can get behind lol. ACAB half the time is just straight up internet trolls and instigators. Meanwhile the same people love to espouse shit like how the wealthy are the real oppressors while ignoring most police are only firmly low-middle class. There are way more people getting into that job who just happened into it like most people in the world. While yes, the abusers and psychopaths are attracted to the job for the above, the separation of powers in places like that are wide. Just like they would be in most businesses. Let alone the real deal PTSD they have to deal with daily to weekly in som areas.

Any direct supervisors for teams that have pretty full automony know it’s impossible to track what they do constantly. So much of it is based on the trust system and good faith actors speaking out when they see something. Throw in some bystanders effect and benefit of the doubt for people who’d normally be good to you but a monster in the shadows… I’m not envious of police one bit, or the people trying to make change from the inside. Which is the only real way it’s going to happen despite internet tough guys espousing otherwise while refusing to pay taxes for shit like mental health services lol. Elected local/state politicians, DAs, also being the people who could make those changes. Also equally vilified.

It’s way more complicated than people give it credit for when you’re actually trying to make change. For most people trying to get by, best thing you can do is vote.

Maybe I’m too suburban but I’ve never seen staff get upset about being late by less than 15 minutes. Tbh I’ve never seen anyone even try to make an appointment still later than tha without just cancelling or pretending you never had one lol.

I’m not envious one bit about working in the healthcare industry. I’ve seen enough of it to stay well away from an absolutely necessary profession rife in red tape and leaches at the higher levels.

Fire Toolbox is the only one that I’m familiar with. It’s less cleanup and more hiding a bunch of stuff. Adding a bootloader and disabling some of the Amazon tracking.

I don’t think there’s any programs that allow you to straight up nuke the Amazon firmware and side?load your own android or tablet OS.

You realize you two are agreeing with each other right lol?

Yuuuup.

Are we though? Because I think we know exactly what you meant to stir up lol.

What do you think a strawman is? Did OP say any of that?
reply

Are you referring to yourself as op or did you forget what account you were logged into lol?

By jove! It works!

Yeah… why wouldn’t you self upvote? At least reddit had that right. Does ANY commenter on a public forum NOT want their comment more visible lol? It’s one of my biggest complaints about any Fediverse instance that actually allows ANY form of visible vote tallying.

Your strawman sucks, I’m not buying it

That’s what you plan to do on the internet all day? Just use buzzwords without understanding what they actually mean lol? Or do you genuinely believe that isn’t the root of most right wing estranged, convoluted, self-deceptive arguments? Because the Republicans being elected have been saying the quiet part out loud for almost 8 years now.

Gish gallop! Fallacy fallacy! Sealioning!!! And no, citing multiple sources is not gish gallop. I’ve been hit with that accusation in a personal chat recently too lol.

How dare the public not want to hear about us stripping the rights of gays, and trans people? ECHO CHAMBER! I JUST WANT CIVIL DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW BLACK PEOPLE ARE NOTHING BUT THUGS AND RAPISTS AND THEY SHOULD GO BACK TO AFRICA.

How about no dude? Go back to Truth Social and rant there. Nobody wants to hear about your eugenics, how a female comic artist hurts your browsing experience and you’re too contrarian not to spew misogynist rhetoric.

Progressives and most real moderates know better now. It’s all bad-faith arguments and dog whistles. The paradox of tolerance is real and people need to stop platforming insanity.
