politics @lemmy.world•Mayor Mamdani said he won't accept raise after New York City Council approves pay hike
283·2 个月前I know a lot of wonderful individuals who deserve the dignity of not having that slur used in common parlance and also not having their disabilities being compared to .ml users. The .ml guys are almost universally bad people and they are not.

World News@lemmy.ml•In ‘Battle For the Skies’, Russia Outclasses Ukraine on Almost Every Front
22·2 个月前Just to be clear, you think the Ukrainians flew drones all the way to Moscow, navigated them around air defenses, and blew them up at refineries. But instead of filling the warhead with something that would damage the refinery they filled it with Hollywood pyrotechnics because they wanted to look like they damaged the refinery?
I just want to be really clear about what you believe.
I agree, but I don’t think the article is really about the Atlantic’s commitment to creating meaningful change. I think it hits on something important though, which is that those who were most ardently combatting climate change have now pivoted to other political topics or backslid on their commitments.
Climate change is as important as ever but a lot of people on the ground and those in power can’t seem to give a shit.

Climate@slrpnk.net•Open Climate Risk, a fully open option for U.S. building-level climate risk data.2·7 个月前These maps never include Alaska or Hawaii despite the myriad risks in those places.
Feral horses are a problem in the American plains and west with one of the issues being the fact their carcasses will attract grizzlies or black bears which can then encroach on humans. Hiking out, digging a massive pit, and then burying a horse really isn’t an option so they blow them up to increase the speed of decomposition.
They also degrade and destroy native grassland and the whole problem could be easily solved with a cull of the herds, but some dipshit-wanabe-cowboys are obsessed with “saving” “wild” horses so now the federal government has to spend over a $100 million on horse contraception to keep the population vaguely in check.
TDLR: We blow up a bunch of horses corpses every year because of a politically connected nonprofit.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Phoronix: Several Linux Kernel Driver Maintainers Removed Due To Their Association To Russia
6·2 年前I’m all for sanctioning them too. Economic sanctions are the bare minimum we should be doing to genocidal authoritarians.

World News@lemmy.world•Ukrainian soldiers suspected they would invade Russia when they got new rifles, but still thought it was a joke when the orders came throughEnglish
22·2 年前The US wasn’t conducting a genocidal war in Afghanistan. The Russian government is explicitly attempting to erase Ukraine as an entity and anyone who calls themselves Ukrainian with it.

politics @lemmy.world•At the center of the right-wing revival? Hating immigrants
6·2 年前neither party when elected do anything meaningful to secure the border or deport illegals.
It might shock you to learn the best way to prevent immigration is to make the countries experiencing outflows more stable and liveable, but I’m gonna take a wild guess you don’t like foreign aid.
maintain demographics
There sure was a lot of hand wringing before you wrote down what your actual problem with immigration was.
Pray tell what is the ideal demographic make up if the United States?

News@lemmy.world•Biden’s Lapses Are Said to Be Increasingly Common and Worrisome
154·2 年前How about we get someone who can win in a swing state so we can avoid Trump? Because right now from the polling it looks like Biden can’t.

politics @lemmy.world•Bombshell Poll on Swing States Spells Disaster for Biden In Every Way
187·2 年前I’d vote for a literal corpse with a (D), but there’s voters who are somehow undecided or ambivalent about fascism. The fact remains that the polling shows this hurts Biden in required swing states which is extremely concerning.
























About 54% of people voted for the wrong Dan Sullivan in 2020, so I’d wager a lot of them probably will again.
