IDK, maybe because cops are killing people in record numbers, which aren't included in violent crime stats?

Omglol

He sure has a lot of boomer energy for a guy who's only 42.

How much frozen human shit has that mountain accumulated since people started climbing it for fun? Can somebody do the math on that? I feel like it has potential for a really shitty trivia question. Like, for Shitty Jeopardy! or something. JFC, I am baked.

@FlyingSquid omg I didn't realize it was your post. Hi! Ok I'm gonna put the bowl down

Yesterday one of our community members was being harassed by an antisemitic asshole (elsewhere on Lemmy, not here). The dickwad's post was promptly nuked by the mods, but not before I got a brief chance to tell them to fuck off. That interaction inspired this meme.

If you see someone being harassed, speak up! Don't let them talk to your friends like that, and don't let your local community turn into a Nazi bar! Stand together

According to his job description, the dude is a "Mental Wealth Advisor" 🙄

It's a horseshit statement, they're still passive-aggressively deflecting blame (emphasis mine):

As you, our diligent community pointed out, it looks like some AI components that are now popping up in industry standard tools like Photoshop crept into our marketing creative, even if a human did the work to create the overall image.

While the art came from a vendor, it’s on us to make sure that we are living up to our promise to support the amazing human ingenuity that makes Magic great.

Hexbear.net (spun off from r/chapotraphouse, banned on Reddit in 2019 for fascist propaganda), has downvotes disabled on their entire instance, so that's one. Please note that though they claim to be "leftist," their users' primary focus is spreading right wing propaganda via strawman and red herring tactics, usually in swarms.

Y'know, if Texas secedes, we won't have to change the flag and remove a star if we make Puerto Rico a state. Just sayin'.

“I just happened to look in my emails and see the letter from the principal coming through saying that it was coming to Chimneyrock," Kincaid said. "I'm about to come unglued right now.”

I'm trying to picture what this looks like. She's on the verge of throwing a temper tantrum over this, which is hilarious and to be honest really sad. These people need to grow up and get over themselves.

Also, why are only grandparents quoted in this article? Is there not enough conservative millennial rage in Tennessee to meet their quota?

I'm just trying to process this. Do I have this right? Bridget Ziegler, one three founders of Moms for Liberty (a right wing extremist group trying to erase all references about queer people, discrimination, and racism from public schools), has consensual sex with women and her husband rapes them?

I mean, wow. Is she running for president or something?

I feel empathy for her, but only a tiny bit. Her political party: (1) supports political violence, (2) commits most of it, and (3) in general commits a majority of the crime in the country. This is not an opinion, it's documented fact. Violence is the conservative party's M.O. I don't mean to victim blame, but when you willingly associate with violent psychopaths on a daily basis, violence is inevitable. It was just a matter of time before some dipshit put his hands on her.
