News@lemmy.world•Christa Pike unconscious, on a ventilator at Nashville hospital, her lawyers say
1·4 hours agoExcellent point. The point of using nitrogen is to make it quick, efficient, and painless, and thus as humane as it could be. Unfortunately, we have far too many people handling executions who have a sadistic streak. That’s why we need to handle executions at a Federal level, with professionals who are doing it the right way, for the right reasons.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Has America Become the Scariest Country in the World to Visit?
61·15 hours agoIt’s pretty scary living here, and I’m a white American. If I were from another country, I wouldn’t come here if I didn’t have to.
Even if you didn’t find yourself scooped up on some bizarre immigration nonsense, and either detained for months, or deported to Africa, you are very likely to be turned away at customs for any number of baffling bullshit excuses, including complaining about Trump in your social media. All those travel expenses, thrown away, because you had to go to America THIS year.
Go to the Canaries, or Spain, or Thailand, or spend your money seeing the sights of your own country. Come back to America in a few years, when the good people are back in power.
BTW, I’m from Florida, and at least a portion of my income is derived from tourism, so I’m saying this, knowing that I’m going to feel it, but I already am anyway.

World News@lemmy.world•Russian lab worker dies of suspected plague after ‘being exposed to virus by broken test tube’English
7·16 hours agoOne of my personal “Rules of Life” is that people are most suspicious of behavior they are most likely to perform. Thieves always think people are stealing from them, cheaters always think someone is cheating on them, etc. They have to believe that, so they can keep performing the behavior, but blame it on others - you do it (even if they don’t), so it’s okay if I do it.
Trump lives by this code, he’s always accusing people of stealing, cheating, etc., and then does it himself “in retaliation,” when what he’s really doing is just helping himself to whatever he wants.

65·16 hours agoIn Russia, who won’t do a thing about it, and if they do, they’ll botch it in typical Russian fashion. They are easily the dumbest superpower.

Technology@lemmy.world•Meta Insiders Convinced Muse Is Going to End Up Leaking the Bank Accounts and Email Archives They’re Vacuuming Up From Users: "It's inevitable."English
3·16 hours ago99% of us are neither, but it’s not like we have a choice. This is the world that’s being thrust upon us, whether we like it or not. All we can do is resist as much as possible, and apply malicious compliance whenever and wherever possible. Make them suffer and pay for it as much as possible, which frankly, isn’t much.

3·16 hours agoYep, that’s all I use it for. I used to run ads on both Craigslist and FB, but NOBODY looks at Craigslist anymore.

politics @lemmy.world•Dennis Hastert, longtime Republican House speaker who went to prison, dies at age 84
2·17 hours agoHe did serve over a year on prison, and is still the highest ranking American politician to go to jail. When people complain that we’ll never punish Trump and his henchmen, remember that we punished Hastert for being a pedophile, we can can punish the rest of them, too.
They opened during that dumb Australia fad after Crocodile Dundee was such a big hit, then they were stuck with that lame theme when the fad died.

“really weren’t that bad” is not the recommendation you think it is.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•If you ever see a CEO like this, warn a brother.
3·2 days agoThe boards of directors of these massive entertainment companies care about money, and nothing else. It gives me only the slightest schadenfreude knowing that it probably makes them all crazy having to deal with a corporate sector that relies entirely on ARTISTS, who are notoriously as cooperative as cats. They have no choice, and they hate that.
Keep saying that, convince others to your side, and keep sending the message that if they do nothing, well accept it, and the politicians will be perfectly happy to go along with it, and do nothing. Good job.
Or you could threaten them with prosecution and prison every time they read what we say, and get the message that they’ve gone far enough.
We have to make them AFRAID of us, before they’ll do what we want. You aren’t sending that message with cowardly posts like yours.
