They also actively ignore those ‘No licence needed’ declarations, I’ve submitted three, two online and one by mail and they still routinely threaten to show up on my doorstep ‘any day now’

Why ask me to declare it if you’re going to ignore that? There’s probably cause for a complaint there but I’d rather not waste the oxygen.

I regrettably also have this drawer.

Attempts at cleaning it usually end up with the drawer now being somewhere else, but it clings to life somehow.

I think they’re just a fact of life at this point.

Yeah you’re not wrong, I did specifically say there was ‘less’ bigots, there is still unfortunately some there.

Absolutely less than .world.

It’s definitely ‘less’ infested by bots and bigots, if you see that as a plus.

Trying to take Trump seriously is their first mistake. There is a reason he’s a laughing stock across the western world.

And not just because he’s a rapist paedophile, though that definitely doesn’t help his image.

Tips aren’t included in the meal prices over here (Wales), our servers just get paid actual wages for the actual job that they’re doing.

For those that didn’t see the rest of this tweet, Frankie Hawkes is in fact a dog. A pretty cute dog, for what it’s worth.

I’m in favour of Option 3, privacy concerns considered.

User experience is big for me here, the broken images are something of a frustration that I’ve been dealing with for a while now, so the option to combat that is a clear winner for me.

Also, I want to thank you for coming to us for feedback, yet another reason I’m glad I decided to settle here on Lemm.ee.

I imagine we all have different use cases, my idea of Lemmy succeeding may not be your idea.

That being said, as a replacement for Reddit, where I can scroll through the top say 50 posts once or twice a day, it absolutely fits the bill.

Engagement is much better for me here, I imagine due to the smaller size of the community, that lends itself to their being much less useless garbage comments and much more constructive or informative discussion.

The above being said, I do wish there were more people here.

Absolutely fair enough, I’m just a somewhat ignorant Welsh man!

They have only ever been described here as American/Native American.

Though now that you mention this, Cowboys & Indians suddenly makes a lot more sense to me.

Are there actually Amish people in India?

I can’t tell if this is real or not.

Took me longer than I care to admit before I realised this was the Onion.

Well shit.

In that case, keep posting!

Well written.

I fear there are many on Lemmy that don’t truly grasp the gravity of the current geopolitical climate, and despite you laying it out here with ease, people will disagree with your assessment.

Keep writing like this, we need as many doses of reality as we can muster in amongst the genocide apologists and arm chair experts.

16 is old enough to have taxable income alongside other things in the UK.

Israel isn’t targeting non-combatants

How many thousands of children have been slaughtered by Israeli troops?

If you want to be pedantic, and you’re talking only about this specific attack, children were killed in these pager/walkie-talkie blasts too. Are they enemy combatants to you?

Don’t be a genocide apologist.

Five years ago, if you had asked me if Israel would be committing terrorist attacks across Palestine, Lebanon and beyond, I would have said absolutely not.

I would have been wrong, even back then, but jesus fucking christ, what an absolute shambles.

How my government supports this state-sponsored terrorism is beyond me.

I would absolutely love to believe this, and I sincerely hope this becomes the reality of the situation in the future. That being said, as it currently stands, this is just not true.

Morgan has so far consistently chosen party over country.

Perhaps too generous, though I am holding out some hope that many of the people caught in the cynical political machine of Reform can still be pulled out of the spiral.

Ignorant, perhaps, but not beyond hope.
