The centipedes at my mom’s house def bite, it’s very painful. Sometimes you need to go to the hospital.

Basically never walk around my mom’s house barefoot.

Don’t sign a deal with the US at all.

The US cannot be trusted.

Not every workplace has HR. And in many cases, the offender may be your superior.

Cloak and dagger.

“Melt the ICE” has such a nice ring to it.

His entire regime is truly evil and rotten to its core.

But hey, at least we don’t have a brown lady who laughs as our president.

Shun people like this, and if possible, quietly sabotage them.

The trump regime was designed to TANK the US economy so that stocks, businesses, and industries can be bought by billionaires at rock bottom prices.

All is going according to plan.

And that was such a dangerous thing to say.

Humans are social creatures. Empathy is a cornerstone of society.

We literally teach kids about empathy in preschool. Imagine being against teaching small children to understand how someone else feels. shivers

If this is seriously how cognitively deficient Lemmy is, then Lemmy is no better than Facebook.

Peer reviewers are expert volunteers. Peer reviewers are NOT paid to complete peer reviews. It is a form of volunteer work.

Peer reviewers DO hold jobs in their respective industries, and are PAID for their actual, non volunteer, jobs.

This is stupid. There are two completely separate variables here.

Peer reviewers review publications as part of their service to their respective communities. Unpaid.

Peer reviewers are PAID by their respective industry for the fucking job that they perform for that industry. Paid.

Imagine saying that soup kitchen workers were paid one billion dollars last year. In reality, the soup kitchen workers WORK FOR FREE. They have OTHER JOBS in which they earn money.

This is divisive, disingenuous bullshit.

What an idiotic and dangerous thing for him to say.

Even doctors have HIPAA rules. You can’t go home and tell your spouse about your patient’s name and treatment.

Acting flippant about sharing national security secrets with his spouse is egregiously dangerous for national security.

Ukraine should never trust a thing from the US again, at least not under the trump regime.

It’s a me!

Reddit refuge here.

I do miss all the niche subreddits. As the saying goes, “there’s a subreddit for everything.”

But I think with time, Lemmy can grow to fill that gap.

Yeah when I started getting suspended for simply upvoting Luigi comments, I realized it was time to leave.

I deleted my 13 year old high karma account. And now I’m adjusting to being a new Lemmy user.

Nah don’t even bother. If someone asked that, it would just be edited out of the recording. And it would still give VP a platform to talk.

Shunning is the way to go. It’s far more embarrassing.

The Onion needs to start publishing articles that discuss trump doing really positive things.

“Trump pledges to increase taxes on billionaires and eliminate their tax loopholes”

“Trump apologizes for renaming the Gulf of Mexico, pledges to undo damage”

“Trump calls on the senate to pass bill that criminalizes insider trading in congress”

“Trump removes all foreign tariffs, making a plea to restore trade deals with the US”

“Trump signed an executive order to forgive all student debt”

Now THAT would be some serious satire.

The trump regime was designed to TANK the US economy so that stocks, businesses, and industries can be bought by billionaires at rock bottom prices.

All is going according to plan.

The wealthy can always try to own more.

Each time this happens, it’s another transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top.

The top takes more, and the bottom has to fight amongst themselves for a smaller and smaller piece of the pie.
