Oh don't worry I'm just horribly film illiterate

Looks like "No, you're Spartacus"

No idea what that's a reference to though.

I wish I had that cat. Mine is of the variety that one day (I think she got a UTI and that created an association between the box and pain) decided that she will not pee in a box where she can see poo and will instead elect to pee next to the box. Sometimes even if it's clean she won't use it.

I finally had to invest in reusable pee pads for her after going through a pack of 50 disposables with no consistent correction in behavior. I also got a sifting wood pellet box for easier maintenance and a silica crystal box in another room for good measure. And line the inappropriate areas she wants to pee on with tin foil so she gets the message that it's not a good place to do that. And a big ol gallon of anti icky poo for whatever falls through the cracks.

She's getting better since I tightened up the tin foil boundary though!

where's my cynical opposition to anti-fascism

i want to hear your tankie ass explain how fascism is "removed" from society.

antifa

Hm, funny, I don't seem to remember mentioning antifa...

There is no good way to deal with fascism other than using brute force and military.

Fascism doesn't become an unstoppable force overnight without first having been enabled and appeased in at least the decades leading up. I'm sorry that you don't have the understanding, motivation, or imagination to ask for any intervention before this point, from people who have real power to intervene.

You still haven't answered my question.

I'm not the person you asked, nor do I have the answers to the universe, and I suspect that they do not either. Sure would be nice if our elected officials would do literally anything in the face of clear power grabs, though, and stand up for what their voters actually want instead of counting on the other team being worse. If I'm a tankie just for asking that of our representatives, then so be it.

Yeah the amount of fascist apologia in this thread is kinda alarming...

Your full-on defeatism when it comes to fascists but rabid and cynical opposition to simple expressions of anti-fascism is pretty telling in itself.

Yeah, I'm not engaging this any further. Ick.

Your assumption is that fascism is... inevitable? non-existent? not worth fighting? ...good or useful, even?

Just trying to pin your motivation in calling someone a tankie just for pointing out passive enablement of fascism...

Can the two things not be true at once? Could it not possibly be the case that both parties are too far right, but one is so much more extreme that it is not only comfortable with the current narrative but going so far as to rewrite the past in order to support it?

How is it now "whataboutism" to call out these talking heads for engaging in clear-as-day holocaust revisionism? Just because Democrats have the same garbage foreign policy? Is that not whataboutism in and of itself???

If animal blood is acceptable then I'm not really sure why stealing from a blood bank would be a primary course of action in the first place...

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 15 points 6 days ago (2 children)

My first thought was if it could be rehydrated and used as a more easily acquired prop blood, as opposed to pig's blood.

but... but banks are people too 😢

The stock photo sites are watermarking AI-generated images now?

 

I've noticed that inline images will render to fill the available width of the comment they're on. This is much too large for some images, such as emotes that only have so many pixels to display and thus get blown out and fuzzy. I would much prefer inline images to render in their native resolution up until they reach the width of the comment. Is there already a way to change this behavior or is it not something that has been implemented?

 

An email I received from the Detroit Edison (DTE) Energy Company today. The text reads:
