I dunno. Plenty of pro-Russian posters on Lemmy, and in this very thread. It is funny to see people arguing that Ukrainian sources should be removed since they can’t give an unbiased picture of Russian casualties, though–I’m sure Russian sources are totally unbiased, lol!

She’s wearing some kind of long glove; you can see the cutoff on her left bicep. I don’t really get it either tho

Social media is one of the central ways news organizations get information and has been for over a decade. I mean, that’s one of the central reasons Musk’s Twitter fuckups have been such a big deal! Removing a post for that is really stupid

it’s because people are misunderstanding your joke as saying “they should try not being colonialists” (pretty hard to read it as anything else tbh), and you’re misunderstanding the backlash as people shitting on dwb when it’s literally the opposite

It’s usually a video on RedGifs. They intentionally make it difficult to view their videos anywhere but directly on their website. You can view them by opening the link in your browser with the chain icon in the middle.

You don’t even have to read the article. OP put it right there in the post.

the medical aid group had been removed from a register of foreign nongovernmental organizations.

Russia was getting ready to outlaw them. It would have been a danger for them to keep personnel in the country, leaving them exposed to being kidnapped and used as currency for prisoner exchanges.

There’s a chance you’re joking but I know for a fact there are people here who will take this seriously.

The shit tides are rising, Randy. And they’re not gonna recede anytime soon…

It’s pretty weak. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/absolutely-not-go-fuck-yourself-look-mommy-its-shrek

Melatonin actually has a scientific basis. It’s a naturally produced hormone that will have an effect on most people, but being a hormone, ymmv. Homeopathy is pure quackery from top to bottom

Incredibly poor headline to blame the school for this. They didn’t know the backstory of the body. All they knew was that the state coroner had sent it to them for educational purposes. It’s the coroner’s fault!

Not liking something and expressing it isn’t the same as being rude. It can be done rudely, but this is about as benign as disagreement on taste gets. Can’t imagine how a mod could self justify a ban over this.

Changing amendments is no problem when you have judges to “reinterpret” them at will

Lol I dunno, somebody wrapping up a tiny little cube as a prank seems a bit more likely than the tide rising above normal

But then they might lock you down inside!

I’m imagining waking up in the middle of the night to someone riding the whole thing away with me still in it

Seriously. What the fuck. Institutionalized child abuse. And then they say trans people are somehow the real danger.

It is a dirty joke, one that implies everyone takes turns in the test chamber, aka the barrel.

Black Mesa was an insane confluence of theoretical and practical physics. I mean they’re inventing fucking interdimensional travel and handheld laser weapons. Also there’s a security guard that jokes to Gordon “looks like you’re in the barrel today” which implies everyone on the team takes turns in the suit. That was just Gordon’s day; he probably does spend most days in an office somewhere doing math

Most dogs actually enjoy training. It’s another game! One where they get treats for doing the right thing! My dog actually gets antsy if I don’t have him do any trick routines for a few days.

Edit to say you do you and if your dog and you are happy that’s all that really matters

That might be because they actually aren’t binding in many cases. Courts have held that if the contract can’t be reasonably expected to be read or understood by the people it “binds,” it’s not really enforceable, and 99% of EULAs are ridiculously long and legalese-heavy. But that doesn’t change the fact companies can and will treat them as such until challenged in court, and they’ll almost always be allowed to refuse service to pretty much whoever they want.

So you’d be right here; grandma’s post about not giving Facebook the right to her data is meaningless. Don’t want Facebook to have your data? Don’t use Facebook!
