News@lemmy.world•What Are ‘Scientology Runs’ and Why Is Gen Z So Obsessed With Them?
28·9 days agoIt’s pretty well documented that L. Ron Hubbard founded Scientology to serve as a financial tool. Hence the financial controversies and the IRS battles from the 70s-90s

World News@quokk.au•World on Track to Have Almost 4,000 Billionaires Within Next Five Years
8·12 days agoIt’s a great start. Though the truly wealthiest people on that list are mostly just the ones that are able to inflate their net worths with stocks. The wealthiest people in the world make sure much of their finances aren’t public

Well they also interrogated POWs after the 1st and someone lied and said the US had massive supplies of them. After the 2nd dropped, they figured it was true.
From preparing to die in a land invasion to thinking the entire island could be destroyed in a few days without even seeing an American GI

History Memes@piefed.social•"Germany is a country" - Delusional CosplayersEnglish
6·24 days agoHochdeutsch refers to Standard High German, the “neutral” or “standard” dialect of the German countries. If you go to a village in Bayern and can’t understand them, it’s because they’re speaking Bayrisch instead of Hochdeutsch
An evolutionary attribute, I think, since drinking from standing water increases the likelihood of associated health complications

161·28 days agoI’ve been in Management for the last few years, some teams were 60+ people and some were only about 15. Your chief is a dick that needs to get their hands dirty. Any boss that isn’t willing to respect the time of their team, whether on the clock or off the clock, doesn’t deserve to be a boss.
I knew the hours of everyone on my team. I never gave a shit if you had kids or a party waiting for you after work, what you do after your scheduled hours is up to you. If I didn’t have enough employees for the work we had, that’s my problem and not yours.

News@lemmy.world•Trump said Iran was 'decimated.' Then an American F-15E fighter jet was shot down.
211·1 month agoThe most competent leadership was forced out in favor of sycophants. Combined with military contractor corruption that surrounds the military budget, and it’s no wonder this looks worse than in the early 2000s

politics @lemmy.world•Former Trump Pastor Freed From Prison After Serving 6 Months for Child Sexual Abuse
21·1 month agoThat’s the thing about those in power. They just need to be convincing enough to get a few people who are gullible, or easily-manipulated for one reason or another, to genuinely believe what they say, and then it snowballs from there

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Zoo hires French speaking trainer because its new polar bear doesn't understand English.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Okay but like the light has been green for 0.3 seconds
201·1 month agoMassachusetts is dense with the added bonus of comparatively old-world city designs. I’ve found NJ and NY drivers to be more vocal and annoyed, whereas Mass drivers will just risk wrecking you to prove a point because you’ve slightly inconvenienced them and made them a little more late
Edit: I also hate camping the passing lane, but the trait I seem not to share with the other Massholes is that I like to keep distance in front of my car regardless of how fast my car is able to go

World News@quokk.au•China has reportedly developed a satellite capable of tracking stealth aircraft, potentially challenging existing stealth technology advantages
17·1 month agoEdit: So I did some looking since the link doesn’t work. This is potential misinformation, so Reuters took it down. Apparently some AI companies throughout China have taken to boasting about military capabilities of their tech without much outside verification. If I had to guess, this was probably something similar and Reuters took it down once they verified the authenticity
This made me kinda queasy looking at it lmao.
I actually quit everything last year. I still get some cravings every now and then, but throw that onto the pile of consequences from my youth. Not the worst withdrawals I’ve experienced, but definitely was the hardest to fully quit.







Right? The people that keep pushing that rhetoric are either acting in bad faith or dumb enough to believe voting 3rd party actually makes a positive difference in Federal elections with FPTP voting
Edit: They also conveniently forget that the Democratic Party is an umbrella of many different beliefs, with many members having very different values, cultures, and backgrounds - whereas the Republican Party is mostly wealthy, racist white men
