I just translated it to non-shitheal.

It's likewhen Trump says, "If I can be prosecuted for paying hush money to a porn star that I fucked while my wife was at home caring for my newborn son then lying about it and falsifying business records to cover it up to interfere in an election then it can happen to anyone who pays hush money to a porn star that they fucked while their wife was at home caring for their newborn son then lying about it and falsifying business records to cover it up to interfere in an election."

I just can't see myself ever being in that position.

The rep also said it is a "threat to hate speech when people can mass report a page and get someone banned–because they broke the rules. Today, the opponents of hate speech are targeting Candace, but anyone who spreads hate speech could be next."

Sounds about right to me.

Does anyone here remeber when, "free speech" and "Conservative speech" didn't mean hate speech, racism, lies, misinformation and Russian anti-American propaganda?

I think it's an expression of ego. They are absolutely convinced of their moroal superiority and are frustrated by the fact that they haven't been able to insult, harass, bully, shame, and threathen everyone into joining their quasi-religion so they're going to prove to themselves that they are right by keeping a captive carnivore and forcing it to eat a vegan diet. They justify this by self-absolving. Self-absolution is one of the hallmarks of extremists. Anything they do, even when it goes against their own beliefs, is ok because they are morally pure.

They always make me laugh because it reminds me of a kid on a playground not really knowing how to throw curse words so comeing up with something like, "poopie buttface!"

They so damned silly.

"I like Trump because he says he will hurt the people I've never met but hate irrationally."

That's a bit of hair splitting and likely largely based on right wing grievance talking points. "Expression" covers speech and other forms of message delivery and is a very Canadian way to say the same thing.

Sorry that wasn't directed at you. The "you" in my rhetorical question was the silly vegan extremists, not you. That was not clear. Go ahead and claim the word and make dinosaur noises. It makes their silliness even funnier and takes away all their power.

Strong acid, strong base. Bake at 500C over night if it's borosilicate to bake off all organics. It won't get much cleaner than that.

Whether you agree or not does not change whether it's misinformation. I'm old enough to remember when, "Conservative speech" didn't mean lies, misinformation, racism and hate speech, and anti-American Russian propaganda.

I'm cheering for you.

 

We make our own green curry paste. The makrut lime leaves, Thai green and red chilis, lemon grass, and chicken are from our back yard.

 

I liked the contrast between the yellow bedspread and the black cat.

 

I went looking for an ice cream focused community in the lemmy.world federated fediverse and couldn't find anything so I created one.

The Ice Cream community is focused on ice cream. Homemade ice cream, recipes, pictures, stories, good commercial ice cream, your favourite ice cream treat or favorite ice cream shop.

I make homemade ice cream and am in the middle of a run. I have made vanilla, (Canadian) Smartie, and milk chocolate almond cluster so far but I have a few more to make before I'm done.

I've posted my favourite ice cream base recipe and a recipe for spicy Aztec Chocolate Ice cream.

If you're a fan of ice cream come check it out.

My boys were having a snuggle nap on the couch. I took a couple of pictures of them because they were cute then the big guy went for a BIG yawn. He's over 10 kg of cat and just over 10 years old. The smaller guy is around 5 kg and 6 years old. The big guy was a ditch kitten that someone tossed in the ditch in front of our house. We caught him and took him in. The next year someone ditched another kitten in front of our house and we took him in. Unfortunately, the second one slipped out the door and disappeared never to be seen again. The big guy was devistated. We decided to get him a companion and adopted the smaller guy from a cat rescue. They are abslutely inseparable.

 

I looked online to see if anyone made a treble using circle hooks but couldn't find any. I decided to make one myself to give it a try. I used a stainless steel treble that I cut the hooks off of as the core and the eye and three 5/0 octopus circles that I cut the eyes off as the hooks.

My thought was that I would hook less tongues and gills and have less multi-hook hookups with circles. It's dressed with a core of red bucktail with a skirt of yellow and stripes of brown.

I will attach this to a 1 oz nickel plated marine brass inline spinner and cast and burn for northern pike and other toothy predators.

If I end up with a multi-hook hookup I will know the experiment failed and I will cut the hooks to remove it. If I get hits and no hookups I'll know the experiment failed and I'll toss it in my box to be rehooked with a normal dressed treble and switch to something else for the day.

Given that the hooks are lashed and not braised I don't expect this thing to last more than two or three strikes. A normal bucktail treble ends up pretty chewed up and bare after four or five hookups.

If this thing works (I don't expect it to) I may braze two or three to continue the experiment.

 

It's been broken for weeks I hear that it works on some clients.
