Have a nice week!

¡Sapo verde!

9 hours 9 persons 9 doors and its sequel Virtue’s Last Reward! (But not Zero Time Dilemma, that one sucks)

They’re basically choose your own adventure books where holding your thumb on the previous page is central to the plot. If you can, play 999 on a physical DS. You really got have the console in your hands for the best experience, but emulation is mostly alright too. Just not the steam version because it absolutely butchers the story - it rewrites the entire script horrendously to adapt it to one screen.

Y aún así, los yanquis se creen los protectores de democracia y soberanía mundial.

Spanish has a word for USian that gets serious use, estadounidense, but it’s long so most say americano/a instead

Wasn’t Australia couped in the 70s by one of those “ceremonial power only” royal henchmen?

You can use the app to go to the Jerboa community, visit its GitHub page and download the apk file of the latest release from there. It’s what I do, dessalines always posts about it which makes it easy.

EDIT: Here’s the link. The download link is at the bottom https://github.com/LemmyNet/jerboa/releases/tag/0.0.72

The latest Jerboa update brings back the like/dislike counter. I don’t know how to make communities though, I’ve never tried.

I remember being taken aback when I saw an episode of the little einsteins and the squadron of toddlers were all excitedly shouting out “removedando!” haha

Weird how putting the emphasis on never is the only sentence that doesn’t add implications.

I feel the same way about ancient Greek philosophers. Fascists like to hold up Greece as the birthplace of civilization and democracy, but if you read what Plato had to say he’s all like “Slavery rocks, we should gear up for war, and everyone must breed for the state”. It’s so candid it’s refreshing

Giving rights to Canadians is pretty absurd, I can understand his perspective

The conception of a ‘universal right’ which assures to the peasant, to the Eskimo, and presumably to the Abominable Snowman, ‘periodic holidays with pay’ shows the absurdity of the whole thing. (…) What are the consequences of the requirement that every one should have the right ‘freely to participate in the cultural life of the community and to share in the scientific advances and its benefits’. (…) It is evident that all these ‘rights’ are based on the interpretation of society as a deliberately made organization by which everybody is employed. They could not be made universal within a system of rules of just conduct based on the conception of individual responsibility, and so require that the whole of society be converted into a single organization, that is, made totalitarian in the fullest sense of the word.

Totalitarianism is when everyone gets paid holidays and benefits from scientific advances. thanks Hayek very cool i love economics

Westerners refuse to believe that about half the fatalities were PLA members because in their countries, the police would never be unarmed, never abandon their equipment, never hesitate to kill in retaliation.

Westerners also don’t pity the murdered PLA officers because they view them the same as their own police: violent people that eagerly abuse their power.

I see “whataboutism” most often deployed as a way to dismiss valid criticism. The genius of the term is that it lets people acknowledge very real problems, but ignore them because they deem it irrelevant to the conversation.

No longer do NATO supporters have to justify their bombing of Yugoslavia or their invasion of Libya. No longer do they have to explain why the organization responsible for creating the conflict in Ukraine should continue their involvement. Now they can just say the magic word and suddenly it’s your fault for straying from the narrative.
