Even if someone refuses to change, the permission of murder in the vague view of justice is wrong. Killing a serial killer doesn’t bring their victims back, killing a rapist doesn’t undo the rape they committed.

In America, our thing is “We’d rather have 8 guilty men walk free than 1 innocent jailed” (supposedly), yet there’s been more than zero people who did not commit any crimes, yet were killed. You can’t undo murder. At least if someone is given life in prison, you can set them free.

Let’s not forget that we’re more prone to give the death penalty to BIPOC inmates, not white.

And it costs more to kill someone, than to house and feed them.

WE NEED MODERATORS (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Hey there guys! After today’s fiasco, I decided that we need some moderators that aren’t me or Ada. If you would like to be a moderator, please reply to this post with why you think you would be a good mod, and any previous social medias that I can check out just to make sure you’re not a troll (reddit is the most useful...

Heyo, figured I’d try to apply here.

I hate bigots, tankies, and nazis. I like shitposts, not posts that are shit.

I currently am co-admin of a discord server of 200+ people (but like 30 or so that are active every day), and was elected when the admin left.

Here’s my personal mastodon page for reference: todon.eu/

Probably not going to be chosen, but I wanna help.

US Federal Reserve launches "FedNow" - the long-awaited instant payments service, modernizing the US banking system (www.reuters.com)

The “FedNow” service, which has been in the works since 2019, will seek to eliminate the several-day lag it commonly takes cash transfers to settle, bringing the U.S. in line with countries including the United Kingdom, India, Brazil, as well as the European Union, where similar services have existed for years....

Like yeah I understand congressional gridlock can really hamper shit, so we need to often rely on the SCOTUS to permit actions. Try getting Congress to pass a bill for gay marriage when "Obergefell v. Hodges" was ruled.

But it's incredibly frustrating how Democrats refuse to push for bills when they have the change to actually have them pass.

When republicans control congress, with a democratic president: "If we get enough people in, we'll make abortion and weed legal!"

When democrats control congress, with a republican president: "If we get him out, we'll make minimum wage higher and help fix immigration!"

When democrats control congress and the president: "We gotta work on compromise, we shouldn't be too mean, we need to secure votes for next election cycle! Maybe we can start a small test on if maybe lowering cannabis from schedule 1 to schedule 2! Anything else is too unrealistic!"

When republicans control congress and the president: "Fuck you, we're pushing for as many things to hurt as many people as possible. We don't give two shits otherwise. We'll never stop."

If the democrats had half the effort of republicans, but actually helping people and pushing for bills, we'd probably actually have something change in the last 10 years.

Scott Pilgrim vs the World. Somehow everytime I watch it, it sucks me into its world. The comics are better, but it's much easier for me to rewatch this every year than the comics every few years.

Oh no, the email I sent to someone didn't get removed from their inbox after I deleted it from mine!

Oh jeez, the post I made on a public access fourm can be read by some dude!

I find raddle so god damn boring. No app, the website is almost too plain to use, no third party API to do anything, and it also doesn't remove EXIF data if you post something, on a site that "cares" about privacy.

Seeing as Ziq literally doesn't care if Raddle dies or not, it's not a loss on my end either. https://raddle.me/f/lobby/162409/if-raddle-goes-down-or-ziq-turns-tankie-for-whatever-reason

What a shock that this is the state where Biden is from. What a shock.

No it's basically for Citizens United. Biden is a NeoLib.

Dub Side of the Moon, a reggae cover of Dark Side of the Moon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dub_Side_of_the_Moon

Joke answer: Disturbed's "The Sound of Science" cover because it's fucking horrid and ruins the point of the original's meaning.

I respect it. I saw someone who said on lemmy.world that Beehaw needing a "Why are you joining?" was requiring an essay. I typed in like 8 words and I got in.

queue,

Agreed!

I mean more as "if you can't look past skin tone and gender, you can't probably read a sign up sheet."

Racists are idiots. The ones who learned better aren't idiots because they applied new knowledge.

Racists just regurgitate what they were told since birth, without questioning anything and doubling down.

Is Lemmy better? Remains to be seen. But if they refuse to join because we won't tolerate slurs, that's a bonus.

What's everyone else up to in magic the gathering? (beehaw.org)

I've been playing more and more magic recently, and have been even maintaining both a modern deck (izzet murktide sorry) and a pioneer deck (arclight Phoenix though it's not suuuuper strong rn) I don't really play commander because unfortunately none of my friends IRL actually play with me!...

I haven't been buying sealed product since WOTC sent the Pikertons to that one guy. But I am lately just Commander only, and my local shop has a biweekly tournament and I came in 4th place in the 1st of 6 rounds for a prize pool.

I at least came above the guy I dislike the most.
