Someone who has gone through US customs please comment if this actually happened to you. I see way too many straw man cartoons, and I hate to see a Ben Garrison of the left.

Oh you absolutely need to replace the gnome cartridge, my dad would always freak out if we didn’t. That’s like day 1 of dishwasher school.

meep_launcher@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•'Call This What It Is—Theft': Republicans Approve Largest Medicaid, SNAP Cuts in US History14·1 month agoBrian Klass is a political scientist who recently put out his own philosophy of chaos theory. I think it’s a pretty useful tool to look at contemporary movements and really refutes the “it couldn’t possibly happen here” message.
Pre-2011 there was a paper published on why middle eastern dictatorships were so stable. The next year almost all of them fell. Klass argues that the author wasn’t wrong, they just were working with the rules and tools we knew at the time, but didn’t know the rules had changed with the invention of social media.
In his perspective, the idea of a “fluke” is not a fluke at all, it’s a data point showing that things are changing and changing fast. Things just feel like flukes when our assumptions of the way things work become outdated.

meep_launcher@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•'Trump says 'big bill' should only help GOP states: 'Don't want to benefit Dem governors'10·1 month agoWhen I say “not my president”, it’s not me refusing to acknowledge Trump’s authority/ being a sovereign citizen. It’s me saying he is acting in a deliberately antagonist way. He sees us as the enemy. He isn’t leading, in fact he’s doing the opposite.
Here’s what’s supposed to be normal: even if you don’t vote for someone in office, you are still their responsibility. JB Pritzker still has a responsibility to protect Republicans in Illinois. Greg Abbott still has the responsibility to protect democrats in Texas.
Hey! Vsauce, Michael here. Did you know I can kick your ass? But what does it mean to kick? And what is an ass? Turns out, kicking means fucking and ass means your mom.

meep_launcher@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Pros/cons to legalize marijuana in a country1·2 months agoIt does make you dumber, and so does alcohol. As we all know, the only drug that makes you smarter is huffing glue pantsless on a unicycle.
Saw a dude like that in Portland once. He had it all figured out.

We need to treat weed like we do alcohol. It’s not the devil but it isn’t a saint either.
