~99% of horses are 1 horsepower, there’s just one horse from Nevada who was locked in a barn during those nuclear tests in the 50’s putting the others to shame.
So 1 horsepower or .5 horsepower?

politics @lemmy.world•Trump’s acting AG Todd Blanche defends president’s ‘right’ and ‘duty’ to investigate political foesEnglish
17·3 days agoGo fuck yourself, Todd Blanche.
Hoarding + fear of death + erroneously thinking wealth will increase likelihood of immortality or leaving behind a legacy someone may reincarnate them + thinking everyone is out to get them (which— sure, we are, but only because they’re hoarding wealth) + dehumanizing everyone else = billionaires
I would like to think if the future is ever capable of bringing someone back from the dead, they’ll know not to resurrect a cancer of a person.

One experience I had with an anesthesiologist was pretty much them putting the mask on me, a moment or so passes and I ask “wait, aren’t you gonna ask me to count down from 10 or something?” and the guy was like “…what? oh, right, uh, sure… countdown from 10 or whatever.” “10-- zzzzzzzzzzzz”

25·15 days agoI mean these are good places to meet people who agree on taking tangible action.
This is the worst episode of St. Elsewhere.
because nearly every single c&h comic and animated vid uses male pronouns/male voices for characters that haven’t got boobs, because the cis male authors have been drawing it this way since the early 00s before non-binary is where it got today.
Nothing to do with comfort of non-binary persons. Just to context of the writers.
Rude not to Shaka back 🤙
Ok, if that’s what you think is happening. 🤙 agree to disagree. have a great day bud.
Nah they put boobs on ‘em if they’re women; otherwise the default’s a man.
Again I’ve moved on as OP implored me to do in their deleted comment, but uhhh, whatever drives engagement I suppose. 🤙
I mean I didn’t conflate anything; the comic writer opted for the term rape. there’s a whole separate argument about how maybe rape isn’t the right word in the rest of the animal kingdom because it has weight among humans and saying it’s the same thing gets used in a rapists’ mindset that it’s natural and justified.
But that’s a whole ‘nother thread.
Anyways, yeah, I did kick off. You shared your comic with rape in it and I’m putting in my two cents. No refunds for either of us, eh? Have a good one. Moving on, as you say.
Edit: OP deleted their original comment wherein they told me to “kick off” and that I took a comic too seriously 🤷 just uuuh, discussing humor… if you’re mad for me saying jokes with rape aren’t funny to me, that’s your prerogative just as it is mine to state an opinion.
me seeing the scraper dev tug off the card scanner after I’m done
I mean switch the character to a woman and ask yourself if rape is taking a backseat to the subversion.
not my kinda humor and I get I’m the buzzkill here but uhhh, just wanted to state my feelings on the matter to maybe help some other like-minded person feel heard.
he’s going to get raped by a duck. that’s the joke.
rape is funny, right? The Boys said it was. “retarded” is back, rape jokes are back, who said time is linear?

One thing I find kind of funny is how AI is flooding HR inboxes with trash, and how that now means the old boomer advice of showing up to a company and asking for a job in person seems a lot more considerable than it had before.
