They probably used voice to text

Meh close enough

including a nazi salute

Based TG. Calling it what it is.

Facebook is actually a bit of a mystery at this point. They stopped reporting DAU’s their numbers are so lackluster and they have burned a small nation’s budget on “The Metaverse” with nothing to show. Then they cut jobs, applaud, and stock goes up. A lot of folks are scratching their heads over but Wall Street loves it regardless.

Shit dude this aint my fault lmao I’m not going anywhere need Greenland

Fair US does have “backups.” And yeah there’s Black Sea but that’s why I said “basically”

Too many words, too much to ponder, too few spoons. I appreciate it but I’ll have to circle back on this lol

Appreciate it truly. Not a lot to admire there are a lot of other people doing a lot more than I am, but I am proud of what I do!

I have a lot of queer folks depending on me right now. It’s hard to truly step back. But no one said it’d be easy

Feels all pretty pointless now so thank you, truly. I’m “down but not out” sure, but man am I down right now.

Thank you. I’m not trying to make it about me truly, I’m just so fucking tired

Man I want to pump my fist and say “hell yeah” but it has been a fight for a fucking decade and I just do not see the path forward right now. Right now it feels fucking hopeless and I know that will change but vague notions of unity and fighting back do not carry any water for me right now.

Some of us have put years of work into things that just evaporated two days ago with the stroke of a pen. I’ve been stun grenade-d by the police, been physically grabbed by MAGAts while trying to film interviews as a member of the press, called a race traitor and threatened by neo nazis, been doxxed twice, had my kids threatened, and I’m fucking exhausted. So unless you have something very specific and actionable right this fucking second I can do with minimal effort I just can’t give you any of my mental bandwidth or energy or optimism. I know it will come back, but today? I’m out of spoons.

I think people are about to learn just how much punishment people are willing to tolerate for Trump and how powerless our institutions are in the the face of rich people who are willing to bend so far for Trump.

Yeah the moment the civil war ended in Syria I started chatting with folks about what this means for Russia’s presence in Ukraine. They can’t handle both of these crises at once. To say they need this warm water port Is beyond an understatement. This is as significant to Russia as the US losing Israel in the Middle East with regards to ME power projection. Their entire hub of power projection for the region just vanished along with their only real warm water port.

Don’t count on it.

“President Trump will do what President Trump wants to do. He has a plan, and I will play accordingly,” Goncalves said. “I’m a big boy. I bought Stelco knowing that Stelco is in Canada. And you know what? America first.”

Dude the value google gets out of creators’ videos vastly outstrips the paltry “share” they give them. If you aren’t consistently dropping multiple videos with 5-10,000,000 views a month you can’t make it And in order to hit those numbers you must resort to scummy and clickbait-y tactics. You’re lucky if you don’t burnout from the required output to make it financially viable.

Fuck google, fuck YouTube premium/ads. Freetube all day.

I am a cinematographer I know what ISO and flashes are lol the problem is not just noise removal tools.

a bit too seriously!

This means you can’t be a professional and use Linux lol which is a big bummer! I hate Adobe but nobody is even remotely trying to keep up with Photoshop at this point and it’s very disappointing

and then everyone completely forgot about

You need to expand your sources of information. Threads is shit, I agree, but it is actually getting solid usage. You’re going off vibes on places like Lemmy.

This is basically the central thesis of The Social Dilemma.
