Was afraid it would be a step down. Still going to watch it, though. Think I might rewatch season 1 first, just to catch up on the story and remember what'd happening.

Unfortunately it didn't matter, she would've lost without Michigan =(

Well this post suddenly became super relevant. Will have to definitely save and read it later.

Have any ideas of where you'd want to go? I'm eyeing an exit strategy, too, but my partner really doesn't want to leave, which I get. Our support structure is all here, but this place sucks.

Lol amazing metaphor. I'm remembering that one.

Hope they're successful for the sake of countries like Cuba, but I imagine this will take a long time to set up and work out the kinks.

Thought you were talking about Pete. He pretty clearly seems like the one the blues are grooming to take over next. He's well-spoken and probably a much safer pick for liberals than AOC.

All 3 are pretty active, although the bottom one is a bot community hat automatically finds rising and popular communities in the fediverse. The top two are similar, but one seems to be about just generally bringing attention to communities people want more users in (community promo), and the other is about advertising newly created or revived communities (new communities).

I personally subscribe to all 3, but I'm always trying to find new communities to add to my home feed. I prefer using that over All or Local.

It's sad there are Muslims willing to stand on stage with Trump knowing the shit he's done and said.

But it's equally sad that Kamala Harris can't do the same thing.

Anyone know if there's a way to support the strike?

Yay! Hopefully they can turn it into something material to encourage a multipolar world, like get their payment system to work.

Oh ya, for sure, but at least check out that site for the different communities you can subscribe to (the equivalent of subreddits here).

I also use these communities to find other ones: !communitypromo@lemmy.ca !newcommunities@lemmy.world !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl

Ya I use different accounts on Lemmy to customize my home feed right now since Lemmy doesn't have a multi reddit-like feature yet. Also, every now and then an instance goes down, had technical problems, or people randomly decide to defederate with it. That person's advice is pretty good. I mostly stick with this account now, but I feel better knowing I have a backup lol.

Welcome! Have you found the Lemmyverse Explorer? It's a great way to find communities to join, and other instances in case you want to make a backup account.

I figured they'd want to go all out to escalate the war further and try to get Trump elected. But maybe that's not worth starting a whole new front in their 4 front war, so they're just trying to save face for their bloodthirsty population.

I'd be nervous if I was a worker or patient in that hospital right now...

Who are these two and which of their work or clips would people recommend?

Why is Doctor Strange to the left of JD from Scrubs? Isn't he a world renown surgeon or something? Does that count for less because he hasn't had medical practice lately?

Less here than any other instance I've noticed. It's why I like this instance. World, ml, beehaw, and hexbear all use defederation and banning at the drop of a hat. They're all trying to cultivate specific identities for their instances, so I don't begrudge them for it exactly, but it's not for me. I like the lack of censorship here and the openness. It makes the instance generic, but in a cool way. It's like the Union Station for the fediverse, or a skeleton key. If a user doesn't like a corner of the fediverse, they can block it themselves now, from individual users to whole instances. Sh.itjust.works might be like it, too, I haven't looked too much into their policies.

It's enough to make me realize I should donate to this place more lol.

Every now and then people like to conflate the Gaza situation with the Ukrainian one. Both are very unfortunate and sad, but one is waaaay worse.
