I have an Nvidia laptop and that still doesn't work well with either of them...

You don't need to study hard.

drunkpostdisaster , in But don't say it out loud

I rather it never happened. But him surviving is the worst outcome.

HawlSera ,

Yeah... Surviving that basically won him the election.

python ,

Idk, I feel like him surviving is the better outcome. Republicans would have ridden the "Martyr" angle until the end of time. And while it would have been hard for the party to transfer his cult to someone else, it would happen eventually. Chances are, the person taking over would have been much smarter.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love it if Trump died, but it has to be in a funny way that can't be misconstrued as heroic. Make him fall down stairs lined with fart pillows. Have him chase an underage girl into a wall that has a tunnel painted on it. Put him in a comically unsafe submarine to check out the Titanic...

jsomae ,

Without Trump, who do the republicans have? De Santis? Nah. Martyr means nothing if there's no realistic second choice.

(Otherwise, the CIA wouldn't have bothered assassinating political candidates in south America)

drunkpostdisaster ,

They are treating him like a martyr right now.

Sam_Bass , in But don't say it out loud

No mix here. Just resigned to the idea that we are not yet free

humbletightband , in Damn I forgot the gloves again

Why would a doctor do it with his index finger with his left hand?

HikingVet , in Today we're all MAGA on this day, when we condemn the attempt on Trump

Get fucked with a barrel cactus.

Etterra ,

With a saguaro; that way she can get a twofer.

supertrucker , in Today we're all MAGA on this day, when we condemn the attempt on Trump

I'm not MAGA, but anyone that supports assasination as a tool of politics is a traitor to the constitution and a terrorist against the people and should be dealt with accordingly

Would you kill Hitler?

supertrucker ,

It wouldn't have mattered if you kill Hitler. Someone else would have risen up and taken power, eventually kicking off WW2. The conditions in early 1930s Germany were too ripe not to have a demagogue take total power there. If you wanted to prevent those events from happening, you prevent the great depression, not kill some leader of a nation

True, someone else would have taken his place, but not immediately. If you can't prevent the depression, you have to struggle on the ground.

Dealt with accordingly? You mean like assassinated? Just for their political beliefs about assassination? Sounds pretty terroristic, man

Killing a traitor isn’t traitorous.

And even if it was, fuck the US. I’d gladly betray the nation for the sake of its people.

Wakmrow ,

Hm. The constitution you say.

TC_209 ,

Do you condemn the violence necessary to continue the existence of the United States?

I tried Wayland for the first time last week and my first reaction was "wtf this is so smooth". But some stuff was too funky so I went back to X11.

The most perturbing question for the liberal is the question of violence. The liberal’s initial reaction to violence is to try to convince the oppressed that violence is an incorrect tactic, that violence will not work, that violence never accomplishes anything. The Europeans took America through violence and through violence they established the most powerful country in the world. Through violence they maintain the most powerful country in the world. It is absolutely absurd for one to say that violence never accomplishes anything.

Today power is defined by the amount of violence one can bring against one’s enemy — that is how you decide how powerful a country is; power is defined not by the number of people living in a country, it is not based on the amount of resources to be found in that country, it is not based upon the good will of the leaders or the majority of that people. When one talks about a powerful country, one is talking precisely about the amount of violence that that country can heap upon its enemy. We must be clear in our minds about that. Russia is a powerful country, not because there are so many millions of Russians but because Russia has great atomic strength, great atomic power, which of course is violence. America can unleash an infinite amount of violence, and that is the only way one considers America powerful. No one considers Vietnam powerful, because Vietnam cannot unleash the same amount of violence. Yet if one wanted to define power as the ability to do, it seems to me that Vietnam is much more powerful than the United States. But because we have been conditioned by Western thoughts today to equate power with violence, we tend to do that at all times, except when the oppressed begin to equate power with violence — then it becomes an “incorrect” equation.

If I remember correctly, it's been a few years since anybody has actually named their baby Karen because of this.

We don't pluralize with an apostrophe. English harder, please.

AndrasKrigare ,

Except when you do https://writingcenter.uagc.edu/apostrophes

Apostrophe when making a number plural is not uncommon.

Gross. Absolutely gross.

Imgonnatrythis , in Aww crap

Palmetto bugs have shortened my lifespan.

AlligatorBlizzard ,

Everything in the South shortens someone's lifespan. Palmetto bugs aren't the only reason I moved out of Florida, but they're definitely on the list somewhere.

Imgonnatrythis ,

Moving out of FL sounds like one of those things you'll look back on someday and not regret at all.

Skullgrid ,
@Skullgrid@lemmy.world avatar

Like moving out of any post-industrial place that has become an absolute shithole.

Yeah, I'm looking at you, Middlesbrough.

I know palmetto bugs are cockroaches and I believe they may have shortened your lifespan but they aren't the flying types, right?
