WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange facing pivotal moment in long fight to stay out of US court [ BRIAN MELLEY | May 18, 2024 | Associated Press] (apnews.com)

“Julian has been indicted for receiving, possessing and communicating information to the public of evidence of war crimes committed by the U.S. government,” his wife, Stella Assange, said. “Reporting a crime is never a crime.”

MutilationWave,

As an American I will say that we are a fundamentally evil country. Our people are mostly not evil, but our governmental system does immeasurable evil to people in this country and across the world.

MutilationWave,

I understand why you would think that, but it’s wrong. The secret service is absolutely still in charge of investigating counterfeit money.

I handled a lot of cash for an old job and I had to submit a form to the secret service whenever I reported counterfeits.

MutilationWave,

And it’s totally not an average skewed higher by higher paying jobs right?. Us working class people didn’t get shit. I listened to a nurse the other day complain that they were only getting cost of living adjustments instead of a “real raise.” Like holy shit a lot of us got nothing. I’m making the same thing as I was during the pandemic and my money is worth the equivalent of $6 less per hour due to inflation.

MutilationWave,

Mind your own business and you’ll have a happier life, less hateful.

MutilationWave,

Rolling coal generally refers to people who have modified their pickup trucks to intentionally belch out black clouds of smoke.

Why is there a surge of deodorant products mostly advertised to women in the US?

So I have balls and yeah they’re the first thing on my body to start to smell. I can skip a shower if I’m in a hurry and I don’t smell much. That’s with working a job that’s usually physical. I was a punk kid fucking punk girls when I was younger and we didn’t bathe every day. I didn’t notice much smell then....

MutilationWave,

Your parents and friends might be stupid. I know I fought hard to convince my friends to vote when I was young and I don’t think I got a single person to start voting.

MutilationWave,

Fun fact about that fun fact. They ground them up shell and all before serving them to the prisoners so yeah it was still garbage food.

MutilationWave,

I hope you don’t feel this way about your other civic responsibilities.

MutilationWave,

You might want to look up the definition of neoliberal. You can be conservative and be neoliberal, in fact it’s quite common. I’m not trying to be a dick here I just want you to understand.

MutilationWave,

I want to link here to Attorney General of Arizona Kris Mayes stating that she will not allow any prosecutions of medical personnel or individual women in the state.

This is doubly important because I have seen so much advice on Lemmy recently boiling down to don’t vote, both parties are the same, etc. And it’s been increasing every day and will probably continue to increase all the way into November. Kris Mayes only won by 280 votes. Over 3000 people in that race chose to throw away their vote on a write-in candidate.

So this is good news for people who care about body autonomy. But it was only possible by 280 votes. Anyone who wants to counter the voting doesn’t matter crowd can point to this election.

MutilationWave,

What about all the homeless that are too mentally ill to even sign up for welfare? Not that welfare even comes close to cost of living. There are quite a few of them.

MutilationWave,

From what archaeologists have discovered, the builders were paid laborers.

MutilationWave,

Hamas is fucking terrible. What they did was terrible. What Israel is currently doing in retaliation is terrible.

I would love it if Hamas surrendered if that immediately stopped all the killing. They won’t though.

1700+ dead. 250 hostages, in a country of 9+ million people.

27000+ dead, in a small strip of land that had 2+ million people.

It’s beyond fucking retribution at this point.

I would like to know what you think Israel would do if they accomplish their objectives?

MutilationWave,

This is just what this sandwich is called in New York.

Republicans Are on the Verge of Delivering Putin a Big Christmas Gift (slate.com)

In a tense game of chicken, remarkable for its mix of petulance and audacity, congressional Republicans are threatening to halt U.S. aid to Ukraine—guaranteeing a Russian breakthrough and possible victory in that war—unless Democrats help pass a bill that all but locks down America’s Southern border....

MutilationWave,

The US has more military power than the rest of the top 10 combined. What countries do you think rival the US in terms of military might?

Passing on the right on a highway

Why is it illegal to pass someone on the right on the highway in the US? In Canada if there’s a three lane highway which, in my case, isn’t very prominent, there’s really no law that enforces it, it’s more of a respect thing here on two lane highways both ways if someone is going slow in the left lane to go into the...

MutilationWave,

This needs to happen way more often.

[UPDATE: expulsed] After deception and drama, Santos’ expulsion could endanger Republican House majority (www.cnn.com)

New York Republican Rep. George Santos’ short and dazzling political career came to an end on Friday as a supermajority of his colleagues executed a maneuver as rare as the man they’re poised to evict from the House....

MutilationWave,

As of 30 minutes ago, he’s officially kicked out.

MutilationWave,

Agreed with the hope but many of his fans have a conspiracy theory mindset. Anything that goes against him will, in their minds, prove he’s being targeted because he’s the hero we need or some shit.

MutilationWave,

This is great news. Anyone with Brazilian connections want to comment on whether this is because of Lula? I’m inclined to think so but I don’t live there.

Pentagon says it will support Israel after Netanyahu declares war (thehill.com)

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the U.S. stands squarely by Israel and will ensure it “has what it needs to defend itself” after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared war against Palestinian militants that launched a surprise attack on his country....

MutilationWave,

I’ll speak for myself but I’m not against the Israeli people other than the settlers. Israel keeps grabbing up Palestinian land and moving settlers in. It’s already an apartheid state situation. What Hamas did today was terrible, and Israel did what it always does- blow up civilians. Hamas and the increasingly dictatorial government of Israel are both shitty, but Israel provoked this shit by backing desperate people into a corner.

MutilationWave,

What does woke mean to you? Before it got hijacked it just meant being aware of problems in society.

MutilationWave,

It seems like nothing they say matters anymore. Some Republicans want to get rid of Medicare. You would think this would lose them massive votes among the elderly, their biggest constituency. But it just doesn’t seem to matter.

What do you think of the recently discovered "fence" or "railing" building piece?

I went back on reddit for the first time in a week just to check out r/hyruleengineering today. To my surprise I see all these new builds using a new piece! It’s from the right leg depot in the depths. I picked it up today after watching a video on how to get it. It’s amazing! But definitely not intended for use by the devs....
