putin to-do list:

• influence american elections by posting memes on a niche social media network, 3 years away from american elections
• more soldier in ukraine

she was nominated “antisemite of the week” for her advocacy for Palestine

a title which was also attributed to Gretchen Felker-Martin, Greta Thunberg, Zohran Mamdani but, bizarrely, not elon musk

its well known that most cats are catholic. i mean, it’s in the name

if only

i know, and i did (the recipe asked for milk, too)

it was alright in the end, but the glooby soup base always makes me laugh, and this time it fell so perfectly… how could i not share it?

it was more of a ‘splut’ tbh

im sorry but this is the most 2018 reddit post ever lmao

america when it sees a terrorist:

its still a business at the end of the day. remember the atrocious creator partner program? that was under Reggie and Iwata. all they did was put a good face on a corporation. the new leadership won’t be any different.

was.

turning a ginger character black

iirc, a lot of the times in old media creators would use red-haired people as stand-in for minorities, basically if they wanted to make a character BIPOC, but the studio wouldn’t let them, they’d make them red-haired instead

got this from hearsay so take it with a grain of salt. but if it’s true, it’s nice that the original visions can be fulfilled now!

(and even if it’s not true, more BIPOC in movies is never a bad thing, even if it comes at the cost of red-haired characters, which whatever it’s not like we’re systematically oppressed)

edit: also I’ll note that Ariel is still red-haired in the remake

who gives a piss, like genuinely

beyond her name, is there any reason why snow white should be white?

and, like, even then. “brown skinned”. Zegler is super pale, you’re just mad she’s not a WASP

anyways fuuuuuck disney for a bunch of reasons, but “casting POC for traditionally white roles” is not one of them.

so i guess provinces using the notwithstanding clause to pass bigoted bullshit is the norm now. yay. yippee.

huh, that’s a strange behaviour. thank you for telling me, it’s fixed now!

oh i see, thank you!

as in, fingerprinting mechanisms use the colors that are in my OS’s color picker? or is it other colors?

im gonna be honest im not super sure what the point of this is. nutomic is the co-founder and co-owner of lemmy, he’s not gonna fire himself

idk if it’s still in effect (i fucking hope not) but canada has a mutual agreement with the US that considers both countries to be “safe”, and therefore any immigrant crossing one country to go to the other can be deported back (to the other country)

if you’re coming from the US and asking for asylum in canada, i doubt it would be granted because of this…

edit: it’s called the safe third country agreement if anyone wants to read on it (and it seems to still be in effect)

that works too, tbh

i was making a remark towards the problem of racism on the fedi (especially the microblogging side of fedi, but definitely here too)

it’s the main reason this network’s demographics skew so white compared to pre-musk twitter or even reddit

and that thing? racism
