politics @lemmy.world•'No one can find him': Trump drops from public view again after 'slurring' military speech
26·11 months agoPreferably saying something stupid like “Folks, let me tell you something — if I’m wrong, if the Republican Party is wrong — and by the way, we’re not — but if we were wrong, then may God strike me down right now! But it’s not gonna happen, because we’re doing what’s right for America. Believe me.”
Love to see how they would try to spin that being his last words.

3·11 months agoToo warm for ice that day, so they became the wet bandits

leaving running water on, going after kids, and all…
Then again the crooks in home alone were probably much smarter…
Roll my number, roll my number, roll my number, I’m not afraid…

11·11 months agoThe United States has been operating on the “concept” of a government since January.
Interesting. I didn’t watch it, but seemed another let’s check the diversity check box by replacing another straight white couple with an Asian-black biracial couple. I didn’t know the original casting for the show.
This NPR article is a pretty interesting take on how the model minority myth gets used to drive a wedge between Black and Asian communities, covering up the real struggles both face. It got me thinking about this Hollywood trope I keep noticing but rarely see anyone talk about—or when they do, it kind of gets shut down. It’s how Black and Asian characters pretty much always end up paired romantically whenever Hollywood wants to show diversity. You see it across the board: Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Invincible, Lovecraft Country, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella, and a bunch of others. It’s like Hollywood uses these relationships to tick a diversity box but without really challenging the usual racial dynamics or putting White stories at less of a center. What do y’all make of that?
Maybe in the beginning Tesla had good engineers. Now those engineers left and the remaining engineers, well it seems they have no say to improve things or aren’t that good. Tesla is constantly covering up all the issues with their vehicles. Elon has done his best to use political connections to increase sales and make it harder for competitors to compete. Even had Trump doing an ad for Tesla right infront of the Whitehouse. I wouldn’t ever buy any Tesla manufactured these days, wouldn’t even take it for free with all the safety concerns.
Such a poor comparison to the dumpster. It deserves better than to be compared to trash like that.




Reminds me of Ghorman in Andor.
