I have a middle schooler. Skibidi means bad.

But skibidi means bad.

Wtf are you talking about? Are you that hard up for an argument? Lemmy.ml is thataway. Anyway I'm Jewish and have been my whole life so the three months of Christmas in America made me feel extremely isolated and excluded as a kid, but I actually got to participate in Halloween. You can try and invalidate the experience of millions of non-christian non-white Americans but that doesn't make you quirky and unique, either. No one is thinking "wow this dude is so smart!" for pointing out the capitalist undertone that's shared by literally every holiday in western society. Now do kindly fuck off.

The holiday about spooky things and kids dressing up and getting candy is not religiously exclusionary no. Christmas' origins were not, either, but we're not talking about the origins of these holidays, we're discussing them in their current form, so go be a pedant on some other thread. I'm sure there's plenty where the pedantry could actually be relevant to the conversation taking place.

You're gd right. Halloween is not a religious exclusionary holiday.

Ripped.guide is the place to see exactly where you should avoid. :)

Let's talk about Hunter Biden's laptop. The laptop became a focal point of political controversy in the United States during the 2020 presidential election. The story began in October 2020 when the New York Post published an article claiming to have obtained a copy of a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden. The laptop reportedly contained emails, texts, and other documents that raised questions about Hunter Biden's business dealings, particularly in Ukraine and China.

The laptop was allegedly left at a repair shop in Delaware, and after it was never picked up, the shop owner reportedly turned it over to the FBI and made a copy of the hard drive, which was later given to Rudy Giuliani, former President Donald Trump's personal lawyer.

The story sparked a massive political debate. Republicans and Trump supporters argued that the contents of the laptop suggested potential corruption involving Joe Biden. Democrats and many media outlets, however, were skeptical of the timing and the origins of the laptop story, suggesting it could be part of a disinformation campaign, possibly linked to foreign interference.

So here's what always bothered me about this story. Why was it left in a repair shop in Delaware and never picked up? Super secret super personal documents on a laptop without a password or any encryption is just dumped at a random repair shop and never picked up? And the owner hand delivers it to Giuliani?

And why should we care? Biden has never had his family working in his administration like Trump did. Most Republicans can't name a single cabinet member of the current administration but they can name Hunter and Jill so that's who they go after. How are his alleged crimes even relevant?

As far as Kyle Rittenhouse goes, why are you defending a kid who drove an hour to bring an automatic weapon across state lines to enthusiastically hunt down liberal protestors (in kinder words than he put it.) You're clearly not here in good faith if you're spreading the falsehood that what he did was in self defence or in any way defendable.

My mom was amazing and died when I was 19, but thank you for your comment.

*Now if you're referring to CHUDS I actually am an expert...

If I wanted a streaming box I'd buy or build a streaming box. If I wanted anyone with my remote control to be able to access my YouTube viewing history and all my streaming accounts I'd make it happen. What I want is a cheap dongle that my family and guests can use to quickly share media to the big screen!

Chud ass take.

Just FYI, Not according to my android keyboard's autocorrect.

Well it's certainly not proof per se*, but considering all the bugs and spies the USSR planted it seems like a no brainer that they would be listening in on any and all unencrypted over the air communications.

I love this but then there's going to be a million conspiracies about how the liberal elite are trying to replace Don with a double.

Capitalism does it again!

The Russians kicked our* asses all through the Space Race. I'm sure they could at least intercept comms and look through their telescopes.

I mean he also got to burn down the most popular public platform.

Really makes one wonder about other wild animal's temperament.

we need to overhaul our voting system to ranked choice.

In the US you may as well be a communist.

Well I guess I'll take yours and Jewishinsider.com's word for it.

According to ABC News "Harris pushes cease-fire after Netanyahu meets with her, Biden separately"

The person, a leading presidential candidate and current vice president, skipping the meeting says a lot more than a statement put out by her staff.

When you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all. In fact they'll actively deny it.

A few years ago... Okay over a decade ago 🤕 Google offered a free course on "googling" with a certificate for completion. You're damn straight I put that on my resume. Of course they've disabled half the tricks they taught us but now.

Good point about Danson.

Maybe. More likely he realized the backlash from his fans was affecting his wallet and career. The conflict isn't new and Andre isn't dumb. he was raised in the faith as was I, except he's a few years older. My family and I have been thrown out of multiple Temples for the mere suggestion that Palestinian lives matter even remotely. I was offered birthright as well, as all white passing and rich Jews are, and turned it down. It's that easy. What I will never understand is why people rush to defend the rich and powerful. Do you really think he needs, wants, or cares about your help?

That's great that he clarified his personal feelings... After the blowback from signing the open letter to Biden in support of Israel. I'm also a "self loving Jew who supports a full ceasefire" and it hasn't been difficult at all not to make any public actions contrary to that belief.

There's why he signed the letter to Biden in support of Israel?

Ted Danson is a treasure.

Eric Andre is an outspoken Zionist.

Sounds like they used Photoshop generative AI around a picture of the products.

The implication appears to be that OP stopped noticing them and therefore they must be impossible to tell from the real thing anymore.

NGL that sounds pretty hilarious, I'd like to see that.

I think it's accurate to the age PP is supposed to be in these. Looking back at my late teens and early 20s it's definitely hard not to kick myself realizing I got so blinded by girls who wanted nothing to do with me that I couldn't see the beautiful girls that were right in front of me. Anyway...

I was gonna say...

Don't worry the other apps are still full of them, and my boss still uses them for every department meeting.
