I also downvoted you both as a show of support for the consistent application of your principals, and because I also think Vaush is an annoying fuck.

I didn’t even know about most of the rage-bait controversy shit from this thread. I just hated him because he’s the living embodiment of the Well Ackshually meme…

Nice, uhhh…username ya got there…I think…

I was here for the beans and the jeans, but what’s this about weird wizard spells?

That was a good read. Definitely worthy of a save. Thanks for sharing fellow Lemming!

I don’t have any skin in the game as I am allergic to both cats and vegans.

However, I think this is kind of interesting because it is going to be one of the first major pieces of Lemmy Lore that a large amount of the userbase is aware of.

In a weird way it means we are forming the bonds of a real community, and even though this is clearly an antagonistic topic it is going to be a lasting piece of history that for better or worse defines our culture.

Conventional brick and mortar retail is extremely expensive to maintain. It has less to do with Amazon specifically, and more to do with the rise of online retail & direct to consumer business models more generally. Don’t get me wrong, Amazon was a huge pioneer in that area, but it would have happened one way or another.

I meant to reply to you yesterday, but I forgot. Your link was amazing, thanks for posting.

I had to stop reading after a while though because I was getting too fucking depressed that so many morons keep willingly giving this chuckle-fuck their money even though all of the available evidence points to him being a pedantic child and pathological liar who’s companies exist in spite of him rather than because of him.

That’s quite a good list you’ve got going there already. Did you do that from memory?

Researchers have been studying this bug for awhile and human vaccines could be ramped up more quickly than with COVID.

There has also been a lot more research and successful production of influenza related vaccines, and over a much longer period of time. I would think there could be the potential to create H5N1 vaccines prophylactically in the future as the technology continues to improve.

You don’t need a jondom if you just use the ol’ jildo.

I think I am developing dementia from how much stupid bullshit has been involuntarily implanted in my brain over the last 8-ish years of politics in the United States. I honestly think I am dumber and more apathetic than I was before 2016, and that is scary because I actually do give a shit about the progression of our species.

This graph is so location dependent for the US. Where I am, home prices have gone up well over 10x since 1980. There are many places in the US where it is just as bad, or even worse than the average in Canada.

I’m very sorry that happened to you. I don’t blame you for being paranoid. Fuck. That. Noise.

I already had one, but thank you for subtly reinforcing my irrational fear given I have never known a single person in my area who has ever gotten bed bugs. One can never be too safe…
