Just little guys
  • Ah, yes. I can't speak to the intent of the meme. Not that you specifically asked me, personally, in the first place. Sorry, I'm of no help there, but if I were to guess, I'd say it's a Jerry Seinfeld "what's up with that" attempt at humor.

    Regarding the spelling, well now, that's just equal parts hilarious and sad.

  • Just little guys
  • There's a lot of nuance in science that is ignored at non-upper-level university courses. We teach models that work for most cases, and each level deeper simply "lies" a little less, if that's how we choose to describe what's being taught. For 99.9% of uses, the simplest models are sufficient.

  • GOP governor says June is about understanding & accepting homophobes
  • I'm not a fan of this guy, but let's give credit where it's due. The article headline is trying to rile us up for clicks. It took his comments about "building bridges to bring both sides together" and accused him of encouraging acceptance of homophobes. Aren't there plenty of bigots out there to fight without twisting "building bridges" into "accepting homophobes?" Aren't we better than this?

  • TikTok resurfaces video of Trump saying US shouldn't have a president with felony conviction
  • Regarding your edit (i. e., what would it take for Trump followers to change their mind), go hit YouTube with a search for "Jordan Klepper fingers the pulse" and watch some of those. A more recent one, in which he speaks to Niki Haley supporters, demonstrates what are likely "more reasonable" Republicans regarding Trump, and probably best answers your question. Most feature him speaking to Trump supporters at Trump rallies. One features him talking to supporters during (yes, you read that correctly) the January 6 insurrection. Watching these will help understand the entrenched mindset. Hilarious and horrifying.

    Record-breaking increase in CO2 levels in world’s atmosphere | Experts issue warning after finding global average concentration in March was 4.7ppm higher than same period last year
  • I noticed my mental health was having serious issues due to climate issues and had to step away. I keep tabs somewhat, try to do what little I can, and hope somehow things will turn around. Years ago, I didn't see any way we would see our way safely through the Cold War, and then out of nowhere it was over. I see no way out of climate disaster, but hope somehow out of nowhere a solution will present itself for this one, too. That's the hope I hang on to, and it helps me.

  • If presidential immunity is absolute..
  • Then again, with that same theory, he could just eliminate Congress altogether before the voting starts for impeachment. Or place specific justices on house arrest before they vote. Basically, the idiotic idea of a president not beholden to laws is mostly the same as a despotism if the "president" wishes it to be.

  • Democrats who investigated Trump say they expect to face arrest, retaliation if he wins presidency
  • Yeah, fair enough. Especially the SC/Constitution-doesn't-matter-anymore thing. Geez. What a mess we're in.

    Personally, I'd love to see a future Buttigiege/AOC ticket, but I'm not sure how well that would work in a general election. Who knows in 4 years, though?

    Considering this was a spur of the moment snap from the car, and with my phone, I'm happy how it turned out.
