I haven’t listened to the radio regularly in years. I listen to podcasts whenever I would have previously listened to the radio.

politics @lemmy.world•‘We lose the midterms’: Republicans worry Iran might have already cost them CongressEnglish
23·6 days agoAll that is bad, but you left out the only one that matters:
Gas prices went up.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would happen if the US president declares martial law (not statewide, but entire nation) overnight?English
9·7 days agoIf you think New York would stick with President Pedophile, you haven’t been paying attention. New York State includes New York City, and New York City hated him long before he became president.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which one is more annoying: leftover bread or leftover cheese?English
3·7 days agoWhen I’m at the deli, I tend to order by the slice so that I have exactly the right amount of everything for the sandwiches I plan to make.
Ultimately, I wouldn’t blindly throw cheese and bread in a bag to bring along on a trip. I would only count out the exact amounts I need. However, if I made a mistake and there was an imbalance, it would not be an issue because I have no problem eating either bread or cheese on its own.
I am realizing right now that my daughter would consider all of that to be evidence of autism. Which I still deny because I have not been diagnosed as being on the spectrum. In my opinion, it’s just rational sandwich planning.
If they wanted the amendment to specifically apply to former slaves only, they would have said that. However, I doubt it would have been adopted if it didn’t apply to everyone.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s the weirdest experience you’ve ever had?English
561·15 days agoA guy died at work. I was his manager, so when he went missing for a few days, the police called me and asked me to check his office in the basement.
After I found his body, I was scheduled to be off a couple days. When I got back the office he had been in was emptied, stripped bare, new floor, new ceiling, new paint.
A few weeks after that, I saw him walking down a hall. I rushed to the corner he had turned down, but he wasn’t there.
He also had a distinctive odor. Poor hygiene combined with strong cologne. There were a bunch of times when I’d suddenly smell him standing nearby.
I’m not a big believer in ghosts. I figure it was just my mind working through it.

6·17 days agoThere’s nothing they can do about the extreme pain you live with for hours to a few days. You just suffer horribly.
They may not be able to save you, but there is something they can do about the extreme pain if they are willing.

politics @lemmy.world•Senate unanimously moves to fund most of DHS, except ICE and border patrol, in rare overnight sessionEnglish
62·19 days agoHow did they hold their ground? They gave up their only bargaining chip in exchange for absolutely nothing meaningful.
Having a gun probably also gives you a better chance of being shot either by suicide, accident, or making yourself seem like more of a threat.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the cheapest grocery items tend to be on the bottom and top shelves. (Truth # 2)English
6·23 days agoYep. Don’t see the middle shelves, can’t reach the bottom shelves.
It’s not that kind of dove.
When I was in high school in the 80’s, a kid got removed from school for bringing an axe in to kill people with.
Simpler times.
Damnit, I didn’t need another reason to go straight to hell, and then you made me laugh at that.
Many years ago, I woke up in the middle of the night with absolute proof of God’s existence. I went back to sleep and woke the next morning remembering that I had proof, but not remembering what the proof was.
Being the agnostic that I am, I have to move forward without any belief in anything and disregard the memory.
If God wants me to believe, they have to resubmit their proof of existence.
Maybe in writing. In triplicate.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My fellow 'Muricans, do you prefer metric or standard measurements?English
71·29 days agoI tend to use metric when I’m designing 3D models.
In woodworking and other linear measurements, I use imperial units.
Celsius for my 3D printer, but Fahrenheit for weather.
Driving is miles.
In cooking I use imperial units.
Metric for Physics.

10·29 days ago“Remember how difficult it was for you to pass the bar? Come work for us and we’ll get you disbarred before you know what hit you!”
I don’t know about cool feet, but this seems perfect for gout sufferers.
As long as you don’t bump into the metal rod.




I read that they turned off the fire suppression system to try to avoid damaging inventory while fire fighters tried to put out the fire.
Perhaps there’s a chance that the insurance company will try to use that to avoid paying off the claim.
