I think Donnie makes executive decisions based on my aunts racist facebook posts. If she reposted an AI photo with superimposed text suggesting free health care hurts minority groups, every American would be covered by February.

Sokka, is that you?

Rochambeau was a French general for the American revolution. There is no evidence the nick name for rock, paper, scissors has any relationship with the actual man. Janken(rock, paper, scissors) came to America in the 20th century by Japanese immigrants. Roshambo is slang from the West Coast of the US. First evidence of the term was 1936 in Oakland.

Maybe it was named after the general, maybe it’s a coincidence, we don’t know.

And I’m just down here, waiting to be trickled on. Praise be our capitalist father who art in Ottawa.

That’s what I had to explain to my mother; Ain’t no rule says a dog can’t shit in our yard.

I lived next to air bud as a kid. My mom hated the dog because the owners would let it roam around and it would shit in our yard.

Where does it say imperialist is a no-go?

Does it say they don’t want an imperialist nation?

A show about a intergalactic federation of planets hosting different species of beings shouldn’t be… political? That’s precisely the only thing it has to be.

Since it’s a series; sometimes it’s a romance, action, mystery, suspense, thriller, and even comedy. All of which could be argued for or against, but to say it shouldn’t be political is like asking it to ease-up on the science-fiction. How?!

Yeah and that photo us brutal AI garbage.

So, this has been spam posted to a bunch of communities by users with no history. This is just a musk bot.

I’m sure I’m late to the game on that one. Found it on Lemmy. Super fun geography puzzle/trivia game.

Spouse is Kenyan and I have learned a fair bit of Swahili. My spouse is fluent in English, Swahili, and their tribal language which I know basically none of.

I never could have imagined how much it would help me understand them better by understanding their language. It has profoundly changed me as a person.

Language is not purely functional, it is woven into who we are and how others perceive us to be. I started learning to simply participate more with them and their family, now I am experiencing my brain be rewritten.

As a person who only spoke English well into adulthood and then is rapidly learning a very different language and culture, I feel like I have a POV that nobody else in my life understands.

Thanks for asking :)

Do the bats have razor sharp talons?

How do you forget step 3!

Is that a reference to Ajit Pai’s Reese’s mug or does Kash have some weird mug too?

She turned me into a newt!

lol 😂

The North Crimean canal is absolutely what he was trying to talk about. He didn’t even know what or where Crimea was so it was tough to understand.

Thanks for the tldr and the links, that’s perfect. Appreciate the effort.

That is absolutely what he was trying to talk about! Thank you!

It was shut down after Russia invaded in 2014 and was only %18 of the drinking water supply.

I really appreciate the effort you put in to get me that information.
