Republican Senator tells House not to vote on bill she just voted for in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] candyman337@lemmy.world 115 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

It was a 50/50 vote, if she would have voted no, it would not have passed the Senate

I don't claim to know him but I think he was a foolish kid who is now learning the error of his ways. He never struck me as someone who was intentionally malicious but rather someone who is very uninformed and didn't realize it. He said it once in a stream, he used it to mean basically "asshole" when someone killed him. I'm sure he knew it was racist, but he probably didn't know the WHY to why it was or the real cultural significance it has in the US, he's swedish, he's so far removed from American culture. And I don't think he realized the impact of saying that and some of his other comments had on his young impressionable fans.

It SEEMS like he's becoming more politically left leaning and has unlearned some of his bias he had in the past. I don't know for sure but I hope he has.

Yes let him remove his source of income in order to be the most rightous!!! It's respectable that he's doing it as much as he can

Black and White thinking is the death of any movement you're 100% spot on, everything has nuance

That's not even remotely true

Yes that is also a concern, I agree

Yes thank you all this changes is it'll be harder for brands to produce dues and that cost will be passed onto the customer

Companies announcing this like they're doing it because it's good when it's really it's because of a hair brained mandate by RFK

How fucking stupid in c/rareinsults@lemmy.world
[–] candyman337@lemmy.world 25 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I mean for one this is by design, so that they don't know how fucked our country is, but also our country is the size of several European countries so it's not exactly apples to apples. Even state to state you can have wildly different traditions, house styles, etc.

[Steam] Beyond Two Souls ($1.99 / 90% off) in c/gamedeals@lemmy.world

I just googled, it is definitely a fully detailed nude model, which is still pretty skeezy without the actor's consent IMO

Isn't this the game where they made Elliot Page's character naked without their permission? Which was especially inappropriate because he had never done any type of nude body scans for the game.

People say it feels like old reddit and it does to a degree, but in other ways it feels better!

People are so interested in finding alternatives to the systems that we hate, and actually are passionate about supporting those things and developing them into useable and enjoyable platforms.

People are interested in spreading the word about the importance of unions and the climate crisis. Idk if those posts just get squashed on reddit, but I've seen SO much more talk of workers rights and informing others about them.

It just gives me hope about the future for once. Like things are happening that are different, and I know that we can't be silenced here. This is a platform by the people, for the people, and that can't ever be fully taken away.

Just as the title says, I have two accounts on connect

On for sh.itjust.works, and one of lemmy.world

When I'm logged into the lemmy.world the sidebar opening especially lags way more than with the sh.itjust.works account

Edit: it appears to possibly be related to the number of subscriptions rendered in the list.

Before they load things seem to run more smoothly

My notifications on any app I login to say "not_logged_in".

Some apps say I'm not following any communities, others do.

Any time I close out the website, when I open it again I have to login.

Some apps don't let me comment.

Edit: it was an issue with sessions on lemmy.world not my account. It appears the admins are working on this still? Idk, apps are still giving me issues.
