Boomers say that because historically, with increasing age people usually also managed to have some things they might want to conserve, like a home and some financial assets to cover their retirement. I’m in my mid thirties and the only feasible way for me to ever own a home is inheriting one. My retirement plan is to die in the revolution. I have nothing to be conservative about
It is mostly serious. There is plenty of scientific evidence on how car centric infrastructure, city planning and policies have destroyed walkable cities and require an in proportion extreme amount of space and accommodations. Cars as a means of transportation are wholly inefficient, you could put several dozen daily commuters into a single bus, multiple times that in a single subway train.
The only space where cars are not short term replaceable to great improvement of the general habitability of the area is in rural regions where distances are huge, people are spread out widely and communal infrastructure is simply too inflexible to accommodate the needs of the citizens.

post false information to bait people into correcting you ✅
Gottseidank. Ich bin selbst progressiv und habe kein Problem damit jemanden so anzusprechen wie er es möchte, oder darauf zu achten inklusive Sprache zu benutzen, aber niemand wird weniger diskriminiert oder mehr als ebenbürtig angesehen durch die Verhunzung der Deutschen Sprache und Grammatik.
Meines Erachtens ist all die Aufregung um gegenderte Sprache und Pronomen sowieso nur Augenwischerei, damit das eigentliche Problem der Intoleranz nicht angegangen werden muss, weil das eine Menge ungemütlicher Themen und Punkte beinhalten würde welche auch im Widerspruch zu typisch linksliberalen Ansichten und Themen stehen.
Beispielsweise die kognitive Dissonanz zwischen linker Einwanderungs- bzw. Integrationspolitik und der Realität dass viele der Neuankömmlinge tief religiöse Konservative sind, welche nicht viel übrig haben für die Werte welche sie willkommen geheißen haben. Die Realität ist nun mal leider dass man nicht alles und jeden aufnehmen kann ohne eine gewisse kulturelle Assimilation zu verlangen. Dies weder zu fordern noch zu fördern ist zwar historisch bedingt, und bis heute ein kontroverses Thema, aber in der Praxis ist ein gesellschaftlicher Schwelbrand welchen wir zu lange ignoriert haben im Namen falsch verstandener Toleranz. Und jetzt haben wir das braune Gesocks über 20%, weil die gemäßigten Parteien keine realistische Antwort auf die Immigrationsfrage finden und verlieren Jahrzehnte des gesellschaftlichen Fortschritts.
My biggest gripe is that the all feed is not actually the all feed from across the fediverse, but a feed from all instances your instance is federated with. I understand why that is the case, but the fediverse really lacks a way to explore beyond your walled garden and its natural bias. Essentially this acts a mandatory content filter that I have not set up or opted in to, which I personally object to. I have the tools to show and hide what content I want to see, I don’t need it pre selected for me. Or at least give the the additional option to see a feed of all instances and communities across Lemmy / the fediverse I have not personally blocked or filtered out.
As a bald and bearded dude I hate that this guy ruined the aesthetic. At least I have lighter hair color so it’s not completely terrible. Is this what men felt when Hitler took the stache and made it his brand icon?
Eh. There are a bunch of other references to him even after Lorca returns to his universe. For example Tilly was on musk high school iirc.
I don’t think I was ever more ashamed and disappointed of trek than when they whipped out those lines, billionaire worship in a show about a socialist utopia. A fucking embarrassment

You will need to make a new one.
Personally I recently did the same because lemmy.world didn’t commit to defederating meta and I didn’t want to stay there, but I am not very happy on .ml either, I get an insane amount of tankie crap on the all feed now and apparently no more nsfw posts.
I’m an anti capitalist myself but I strongly oppose the idea that someone preselects what communities are visible to me, on .world it felt much more organic and well rounded.
Ultimately I will just have to make my own instance i suppose.
So, according to his wiki link he seems to have a very reasonable position for someone who has that particular religious belief. Supposedly he has explicitly expressed his support for the right have abortions when the American Supreme Court repelled the law that guaranteed it. He also supposedly is a democrat voter, in support of the separation of church and state, and ashamed of current republicans.
For someone who is against abortion he seems to hold the most reasonable and supportive position possible.
The cable gore clump makes me physically uneasy
Actually no. How the fuck do you piss not into the toilet while sitting? That’s the big advantage of sitting down, that and the extra comfort, you don’t have to aim.
The only times this has ever happened was when I was completely hammered and didn’t sit down properly.
Honestly I don’t even see how this is physically possible. Unless you literally do not have a dick there should always be enough - let’s say range - available to bring the urine exit point below the toilet bowl edge.
I feel weird writing this down.
