Yes, but it highly depends on your friend age demographic and where you live.

politics @lemmy.world•Sanders says ‘not another penny’ for ICE until Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller are goneEnglish
395·3 days agoI think you missed the part where he wants drastic reform within the agency on top of axing the ghouls running it. He’s much more likely to succeed politically with those types of demands than just straight up defunding the entire thing.

233·3 days agoThey voted for Trump because he was promising a radical shake up in the government. They were down with that idea because the status quo for the last 3 decades has been garbage for common folk.
You know who else was promising a radical shake up? Bernie. I lived in red ass Iowa at the time he was running, and everyone I talked to on both sides of the spectrum loved him. He even won the primary there.

41·4 days agoI disagree. The bottom rung already states they’re no longer making excuses and even questioning it results in you being labeled a traitor. The step above the bottom is also when they stop making excuses, you’re just not outright labeled a traitor.
Edit: phrasing.
Also, I’d argue we’re even already at the bottom rung in many cases. Just look what happened with Mark Kelly reminding the military it is their legal duty to disobey unlawful orders.
It’s happening all over the US, too. But we have our dip shit city planners still trying to make infinite suburban creep a thing.

politics @lemmy.world•‘Completely lost his mind’: Trump's 'deranged' letter sends shockwaves across the globeEnglish
2·13 days agoI meant running in the sense he’s actually governing, which he isn’t. He’s a dictator that’s terrorizing his own citizens while everything in the country is crumbling. What little governing IS actually occurring, is being done by his cronies that are implementing their own agendas, e.g. that idiotic tax break bill they created last year.

501·13 days agoAnd this is all because the 1% would rather burn the world down than pay their fair share back to society. They bought up all the media outlets and platforms and sowed as much division among the middle and lower income brackets as much as possible to prevent us from uniting against them.

68·13 days agoI feel like crazy, because signs of his dementia have been clearly obvious for several years now. Why is anyone surprised by this nonsensical letter?
He is not “running” the country, his cronies are. They let him pop off with stupid shit like this because his handlers have learned that if they don’t let him do shit like this while their machinations are carried out in the background, he turns on them and they get kicked out of his cult. So they loot and pillage the country while their cult leader goes off on his tangents and pursues his weird/ridiculous/frightening vendettas. M

16·13 days agoUndocumented just means an immigrant who is likely here illegally. There are ways to determine the amount of people currently living/residing in a city without them having officially registered with the government (e.g. census surveys historically never cared if a person was illegal or not, they only cared about counting people).

10·14 days agoYeah, I was quite drunk last night. You’re 100% right that in this context, soldiers would have the ability to disobey these types of unlawful orders under the UCMJ.

1552·14 days agoI don’t think it’s so black and white. A lot of those soldiers are barely surviving and their money feeds their kids. Enlisted don’t have the luxury of disobeying orders blindly, that law is applicable to the officers issuing them.
Having said that, as a vet, I would do malicious incompetence and sabotage our mission in “incompetent” ways as much as possible. Also, I would never open fire on innocent civilians no matter what.

13·18 days agoWhat? Is this a volume control limit, then? I thought it was just a parental feature that caps how often they can listen to music on their earbuds (which seems absolutely insane to me), but I guess volume control would make a bit more sense.

112·18 days agoI mean, it is still ironic regardless of that.
Very fair point, thanks for providing further historical context.
There are definitely some older kids movies even that have some, “wtf?” aspects about them by today’s standards. Hell, we started watching Who Framed Roger Rabbit a year ago or so with one of our younger kids and my wife and I just looked at each other, “ehhhh maybe this isn’t really kid appropriate after all,” and turned it off.

16·21 days agoPeople are extremely brand loyal nowadays and I’d even argue it’s the worst it’s been in recent history. Just look how addicted people are to the MAGA cult identity and Elon Musk’s products and branding.
Apple TV is the only streaming service consistently putting out good content at the moment. To me, it’s like how HBO used to be.
As a parent with young kids, G movies will literally have nothing scary at all. Both PG or G won’t have vulgar words, but PG might have like “butt” or something very minorly offensive.
For example, in Zootopia, there are some “intense” scenes where the animals go feral and chase other animals. The chased animals look terrified for their lives. This can cause some younger kids to get scared/frightened by those scenes. In a G movie, there would be nothing that intense. Zootopia also has some innuendo humor, e.g. the scene where the fox takes the rabbit cop to an animal “nudist” yoga club. G movies wouldn’t have that type of humor.
Hope that clears it up for you.
Edit: for the record, the scene in this post was edited and the fox’s head position is never like that. I’ve seen the movie dozens of times, and while there may be some minor sexual innuendo, there is nothing so blatant as this

Minnesota is gorgeous. I have friends that live in Minneapolis and the city itself is very cozy, as much as a larger metro can be. It’s a very community driven culture, and it’s one place you truly don’t want to piss off, because they 100% will unite against you.
