Trump has stated he will cut American aid to Ukraine, which makes a majority of total aid. Recently Zelensky stated that if Ukraine's only hope for sovereignty is its own nuclear arsenal, they will build it.

I’m an earl grey with honey man, but if I’m being honest, I’ve never really tried much else.

Throughout my time using Lemmy, I have learned about the populations of a bunch of different instances and have made accounts on several different ones based on what I find. However, I’m about to make a Matrix account and this is a whole new ball game. Which server should I choose/avoid making my account on? Does it really matter as much as it does on Lemmy?

The song, that's free to use for YouTube videos, sounds like a jazz song and it's in the key B-flat minor (I am a music composition specialist, and by hearing it I knew its key). It begins with a guitar loop. Last time I heard it was in 2021 or so, but I still remember how it sounded like. I think that it wasn't from YouTube audio library either.

Do you source them yourself or go to a mechanic?

Or maybe you still love it, but now you have a different perspective.

My OpinionI've been a bit confused why I see videos with that gesture censored, I feel like that rarely happened in the media I consumed a decade ago. However, I believe this "phenomenon" is older than TikTok and its weird censorship.

I'd place giving the finger at a high 2, low 3 on offensiveness, definitely nowhere near gesticulated sexual acts. You can give a child shit for using it, but the occasional finger is something I'd expect from even a teenager.

I have stage 2 cancer. I don't want to end up like my uncle, wasting his final months enduring treatment. I just don't know how to tell my family.

What is it? Is it tough to care for?

I'm trying to figure out how to do this in markdown on here. How do you create a link that jumps(scrolls) to that heading in the post when clicked on?

My daughter is 5 now. She's discovered the joy of telling jokes. Unfortunately, her repertoire is painfully small. I've also realised most of my jokes are either not age appropriate or too situational.

What are best/worst kids jokes? Extra points for any that would make her teacher groan. Apparently she LOVES jokes. 😁

Hello, I'm Valmond creator of the Tenfingers sharing protocol & implementation.

To make it more motivating for people to try it out, what should I share to showcase its abilities? It can be rougly anything up to say a gigabyte.

I'm thinking about music, video, parts of wikipedia, ...

Legal of course.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Cheers & thanks!

For me is like my body can't decide, sometimes I can, sometimes I wake up exhausted.

I still mask, I think COVID is super serious and I work with immunocompromised patients in a hospital, and I take public transit, so it's just generally a good idea. I am very, very, very vaccinated, but I'm still not comfortable unmasked. Two angry men on separate occasions have made comments to me about masking and how I don't need to do it. I just stare right through them and ignore, but why are they so angry? It does not affect them in the slightest, and if they think I'm stupid have at it.

Serious question! I want to hide all posts about the American politics and their president. How to do that?

Edit: Thank you everyone! I was searching in the wrong location, thanks to your comments I found the keyword-filters in my app. Problem solved for me.
