Initially, the headline upset me that the greed of these banks enabled him. But then I started thinking: do we want banks to sever ties with people based on a criminal status? What if someone is arrested for something dumb like pot, the bank closes their accounts, and now they can’t pay their bills?

Fuck Epstein and everyone that enabled him to be a monster, and I’m sure greed was involved with the banks continuing to do business with him, but I’m also not so sure what’s correct here.

There are also republican politicians who want the names released. Including batshit crazy ones. I’d much prefer to hate on the other party, but not everything falls neatly on party lines.

Facism does seem to though.

My first time in Singapore I looked out the window of my friend’s apartment wondering why there was a ship stuck on top of a couple of buildings. It’s pretty striking.

So Americans have been ahead of their time, just waiting for this invention?

Is solar the right word? I suppose you could be using it outdoors, but isn’t it more likely just using electricity generated from the lights in your house, which are powered by wherever your utility company sources their power? It’s solar with extra steps.

I’m assuming that will also extend to people using hate speech against racial minorities or lgbtq+ folks? Or just white people?

I hope they leave her the fuck alone.

 

Found him frozen in the middle of winter and thought he was dead. Bottle fed him, and now I have a 12 year old permakitten that hops on me any time I sit down anywhere.

 

I gave her a little bit of our duck carpaccio.

So, I get that someone is trying to populate this community with posts using the lemmit.online bot. And that the vast majority of us are coming from Reddit. And that AITA is a staple community that we’re used to seeing in our feeds.

However, it seems like that just copying content into an otherwise empty community is just feeding a sterile wasteland. There is almost no engagement on the copied posts, and worse: I think it will smother any actual new content that gets posted in this wasteland of copied content. (I stand corrected, after trying to post this there I found out that only mods have priveleges to post. It’s worse than I thought, and I’ll probably just block it from my feed if it’s only a Reddit echo chamber)

What do you think, AITA?
