WideEyedStupid

I responded to a post that took a bunch of price tags and calculated an average price of $4,10 for a dozen eggs. I pointed out that we can’t even see how many eggs are in each of those boxes behind the price tags, so the conclusion that a dozen eggs cost on average $4,10 is bullshit (and I used Vance himself holding a box of 3 dozen eggs as proof, because it shows that obviously not all those boxes hold only a dozen eggs). Simple math would show that when you put any of those price tags on a box of 3 dozen eggs, the average price of a dozen eggs goes down significantly.

And you can hold off on the weird insults. I don’t even really care. Not American, I have no horse in this race. Just wanted to point out that the average price conclusion was wrong.

I just want to point out that the box he is holding… well it’s not a dozen eggs. That’s more like… 30 eggs? or something. 5 rows times 6 rows, if my eyes aren’t deceiving me. No idea how many eggs are in all those boxes behind the price tags, of course, but still. Saying a dozen when you’re holding two-dozen or more is also a lie. :p

Edit: or is it 6 x 6 rows? That’s 3 dozen eggs he’s holding. Edit2: not sure why the downvote. I’m not making it up, you can see him holding the box.

I know multiple people who don’t even have a driver’s license (and before I get comments about ‘Europoors’ – No, it’s not because of money, lol), including myself. Never needed one. Within the city I can walk, go by bike, there’s buses and trams. For traveling farther (also internationally), there are trains. Most of the time I just walk everywhere. Multiple supermarkets within walking distance, train station within walking distance, bus stop in front of my door, tram stop 1 minute away.

My husband does have a license, but we own no car.

Can’t imagine being forced to drive a car due to lack of other options. For a population very obsessed with so-called freedom, Americans seem to accept and demand very little freedom sometimes.

This is what always got to me the most. Even if vaccines caused autism, wouldn’t that be preferable to your kid dying? Like, what the fuck is wrong with these people.

I’ll tell you what I told the previous commenter: They were not all runner-ups, that’s misinformation. The assassinations were not presidential candidates. They were local politicians, running for mayoral or council seats.

Which is also disgusting, of course, but no, the cartels did not kill off all her competition to get her into office.

They were not all runner-ups, you’re falling for misinformation bullshit (and stop upvoting misinformation, people!). The assassinations were not presidential candidates. They were local politicians, running for mayoral or council seats.

Which is absolutely fucking horrifying in and of itself, don’t get me wrong, but what you’re saying is just not true.

False claim? How about we call them lies? Trump is a liar. He lies.

A false claim implies it could be made with good intentions, simply out of ignorance. No. Trump lies. He lies maliciously.

How many lie-filled years need to pass before media call it what it is?

No, it was actually correct. A historic move.

Definitely those Atreides genes.

It’s like, totally unreadable, like, my mind just, sort of, shuts down, like it really, sort of, hurts, you know?

Like, AAAAAHHHH. Sort of.

Well, there’s a shocker. But not to worry! He’ll surely not get away with the next crime he commits.

Exactly right! I think we’re actually agreed on this.

I just meant that OP used to say they ought to do it, which was his ‘emotional’ response to it, which is easier when it’s in abstract. But in reality he doesn’t like it at all when his government actually does it.

I’d never heard about that reddit story, but I think it’s very apt, lol.

This is because we can be of two minds about these things. You can have a personal response to heinous acts, but still think the government ought to be better.

If some guy murders the murderer of their kid, I can absolutely 100% understand why, and I could even admit that I might do the same in their position. But I still think that as a society we should not lower ourselves to this standard and I will always be against the death penalty (especially because the system will never be perfect and I will never think it’s worth killing even one innocent person by accident).

It’s why vigilante justice is so easily understood, but it’s still something we, as a society, shouldn’t accept.

Emotional reactions can cloud our minds to these things. But I absolutely agree with you. This is horrendous and barbarous. I can still somewhat understand the “he deserves it for what he did”-response, but I’m absolutely against this on a deeper level.

And even if the girl was trans, she still shouldn’t be bullying kids online. Jesus fuck, these people are so disgustingly pathetic.

Bloody hell. Your ass should create its own paper, it would be better than 90% of the media out there.

I can’t remember ever experiencing something like this…? Is it possible to forget about it, like a dream? Barely ever remember dreams. Or maybe some people don’t experience these hallcinations?

Lmao. Well, woosh!

I guess I’ve just had too many real arguments with people on reddit about this and this comment flew right past me. :D

Oh it definitely exists. Ask anyone who has experienced living/working/dealing with a narcissist.

There is a list of all the Lemmy apps here: https://lemmy.world/post/465785

It shows the current ones, announced apps, apps in development, etc. Across all platforms. Lots of devs have moved here from reddit, including Sync, Boost and Slide.

From what I’ve read from other users Wefwef is supposed to be very similar to Apollo, so you could try that one.

I hope you find what you’re looking for!
