Not like Lemmy needs more engagement or anything but sure, no harmless tangents allowed. Got it. You guys have fun. I’m taking a break from Lemmy.

Dude argued with his own fans to defend those guys. He really is as stupid as he seems.

Just putting interesting info out there. Kinda weird to seem defensive over that?

Sharks aren’t bothered at all. There’s probably lots of animals that respond differently than humans. I believe birds enjoy capsaicin.

I thought that while typing it. It would be a 5 second YouTube video, but the text description is hard to follow.

Me too, but there’s a way to make the twists easier to use.

• Hold the open end of the bag and twist the loaf to make the twisted end
• Fold the wire in half around the twisted part of the bag
• Pinch the 2 ends of the wire with one hand and hold the open end of the bag with the other hand. The bread will hang below that like a Y.
• Swing the loaf of bread in a loop around your hands 2 or 3 times like you’re making a ring with your arms and swinging the bread into it or out of it. That twists the wire around the bag.

Lots of the bread in thé US has that clip instead of the little wire thing

I can think of one or two reasons they wouldn’t remain employed

And hard drives

Having been this person, I can assure you it’s not laziness. Sometimes you really are that late, and 30 sec can be the difference between going through traffic lights or hitting a red light. It could be the difference between being in front of or behind a school bus on a one lane road.

Yeah I don’t understand the landlord hate on lemmy. Some landlords suck, but lots don’t. Many people can’t afford to buy a home. Where are they supposed to live if renting doesn’t exist?

Then what about hotels? Are they also evil for buying and renting property? Should people have to buy a property while traveling for a week?

Where does Lemmy think we should draw the line?

Then there was the pen issue in the meeting with all the Russian Oligarchs. Putin is a petty bitch.

Well that’s a relief

Red alert. Red alert. Red alert.

Man I feel like it’s the exact opposite. NY Times keeps having articles like “America’s soft landing is going better than other developed countries, and here is why that is bad for Biden”

I want to know why he snubbed the Clintons here. I figured his phone would have added them using the auto complete feature.

Pretty sure I missed out on a job several years ago because the guy interviewing me was a Friedman blow hard.

He found out I have an econ degree and asked me who I follow. I said people like Paul Krugman, and he was like “Oh you’re one of those. I’m more of a Friedman guy.” The interview changed after that. No follow-up or offer.

Edit: That guy got laid off last month along with the position I had applied for. So sad…

I read the headline and immediately knew he would be part of this before even opening the article.

Well I mean, not voting or voting for a Republican would be demonstrably worse, so yeah. It’s not like Trump is going to help Palestinians. He’ll just openly support the genocide. The choices are action (or inaction) that directly harm you or vote for Biden who is not your ideal representative.
