I should have gotten high and let her ride my hips.

It makes no difference in your ability to access some amount of content, basically.

The "Fediverse" is like a collection of cities, most of them pretty small. "Federation" refers to the roads between them. When an instance federates with another, the users of each instance are allowed to view and comment on each other's posts.

There are a few toxic circle-jerk communities no one federates with, like Truth Social, and there are a few gooey growths of bot-filled cancer, like Meta's Threads, and there are nice instances like lemmy.ml or hexbear where it's possible to have educational conversations.

(my vague grasp of federation, semantics may be wrong)

It's the trans autism for me. Can't get anything quite like it on reddit...

(and I've been telling myself Docker/Kubernetes will surely be easy enough to pick up on the job...)

"Although quick action by rescue workers headed off the worst, the incident became a horrible indicator that some on the crew were working too hard,"

The child didn't die, jesus, you can't post only the "headline" on a story like that!

Wasn't the Nazi government a significant "partner" in seeding the idea of a Jewish state? Others were talking about it first, sure, and the Balfour Declaration explicated the idea before the Nazi party existed, but the Nazis were hugely supportive of the idea as a more "humane" way to cleanse their population would be to simply ship the undesirables away.

I don't have a source for this, that's part of why I'm asking about it. I don't know where I learned of it and, if anyone else has heard of this, maybe they know some names I can read about or point me to a source.

That is absolutely what would happen.

I thought this was a shitpost copypasta but there was no punchline and it ends with contact information... Is this a parody of a scam or someone actually trying to pull a scam?

If you go years without peeing, where does the pee go?

Do the balls just start getting bigger?

I suppose I can agree the way the system should work, with rehabilitation being the purpose, 20 years is a reasonable maximum and I'd be glad the decision for how long to hold a criminal wasn't mine. I haven't studied the subject, I'd trust the people who have.

The maximum sentence for a plot to start a race war is twenty years?

 

I'm seeing headlines that Republicans quietly posted a report proving trans healthcare saves lives and simultaneously seeing that Utah Republicans stand by the ban(1) and are misquoting the report's conclusions.

Download the report from the Utah State website where it's hosted.

When I clicked the "Download Report" links from Firefox, the file that downloads doesn't open as a readable report. That may be a problem on my end though.

So, the gist is, I've only ever worn whichever-FruitOfTheLooms were cheapest at whatever Walmart or Target I happened to be at. There was that one time I was at a fetish shop and I bought fancy underwear (for like forty dollars...) but I'm hoping to find something somewhere in between.

What's an underwear option that supports looking like they were bought, neither, by one's mom 20 years ago nor by a 40 year old virgin at a sex shop?

 

I decided to listen to Behind the Insurrections again and this time follow the sources Evans provides but... I can't find any place hosting the podcast episode that has the show notes which allegedly contained the sources?

My wider mission is to find the sources Evans used to build the episode but first I'm looking for a thesis Robert recommends the audience read which provides a summary of the business leaders' perspectives in the time leading up to the Business Plot. This essay, Evans says, is authored by Bradley Galca of the University of Albany.

Searching that name on Google and on DuckDuckGo comes up with nearly no results and nothing relating to the actual author. That is, a few LinkedIn profiles? Not what I'm looking for.

Does anyone here have a better place to search? (I know I don't know how to search anymore now that Google is useless)

And also, does anyone know where the source list for this episode went? Does it still exist on the internet?
