Estblishment corporate dems 🤝 All elected republicans:

Disenfranchising the American people in the name of job security.

If you don’t know the difference between leftist and liberal you should probably crack open wikipedia before you try to crack a witty retort.

Male pattern baldness is the correct answer actually

I’m sure it’s purely a coincidence that Twitter and Reddit are both being dismantled a year before the 2024 US election. And that Twitter’s demise was funded by Saudi Arabia.

Musk does seem to relish his chance to play the troll on a global stage, but that’s more of a side perk than the central reason for all of this.

I haven’t seen any (on iOS/Memmy), but I had NSFW turned off on my main instance profile (lemmy.world), not sure if the toggle works within the app. Try turning it off from your main instance in your browser.

Fewer mobile users maybe? For whatever reason, autocorrect/autocomplete suggestions on iOS always tries to add inappropriate apostrophes to plural words. Without fail, every single time. I sometimes reflexively tap the autocomplete suggestion to finish longer words and it’s really aggravating.

If you declare bankruptcy and owe the bank an amount in excess of their yearly earnings, that’s a bigger problem for them than for you.

What methods do you think could be used to force repayment from the US?

Got a source, or did you happen to overhear this bit of conversation yourself?

The “gh” in Van gogh is the phoneme /x/ which is the same sound as in “loch”, a voiceless fricative sound (“throat clearing” sound).

Great point, after all we are all familiar with the historical example of the Hitler Youth overthrowing the government in Nazi Germany.
