Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

Red states have had the highest maternal mortality before the abortion ban/restrictions.
Just adding to the pile of bodies.
This is what they want. Getting pregnant in red states is literally too dangerous. Their birth rate is going to hot rock bottom in the next 4 years. Women communicate about this stuff, so even if the government isn't reporting on it but the rates are so high every women will eventually know someone personally that died because of these bans.
They're not targeting us, they're targeting future women that won't know anything about rape, sexual assault, sex Ed, etc. once they complete dismantling the education system. If this trend continues, they're gonna get what they want. Organize, and be vocal outside of lemmy. Yes we're all talking about it, but no one else is. Talk about it, be unfriended, stand up or shut up.
And as a quick aside, imagine being such a colossal pussy, that you have to dictate what other people do because you're afraid of women and or your own sexuality. These are the people we're talking about about. I used to think that "oh no one is better than anyone else" but we absolutely have to be better than these people. They're fucking monsters and they're going to keep ruining our shit.
And then it will be normal and not a big deal
That’s my concern. It’ll go the way of climate change and school shootings.
The narrative will shift from “it doesn’t happen” to “there’s nothing we can do to stop it” to “why even bother? It’s normal so it’s not a big deal.”
if covid taught us anything, it’s that the easiest way to make a problem “go away” is to stop collecting data about it
Literally 1984
Like Trump’s drone strikes
Ah yes, the too retarded to fail strategy.
Downvoting this is retarded.
No we’re only allowed to make fun of dumb (unable to speak) and lame (unable to walk) people.
That's fucking retarded.
Lol
Well shit boss, we made it.
We are taking back the R word!
I don't think I'll be on the right side of history here, but we're gonna do it for science.
53% of white women are ok with this.
Until it affects them, of course.
So...many...faces...
We're going to need a leopard breeding program so there's more food competition so they can stay lean and healthy.
Belome wants more faces!
Is the updated version worth it? I loved that game as a kid, but can't find it in me to fork over $60 just to play with better graphics.
As a big fan of the original, I loved it. It's pretty much a perfect remake. It does have new post-game content, but $60 is still pretty steep if you've played the original. I'd wait for a sale or get it used.
I had fun with it. I haven't finished all the bonus bosses after beating the game. The graphics were well done and the game play was as enjoyable as ever. They added some new super moves which was cool.
This was one of my first games as a kid and was a defining experience for my childhood. I've replayed the original a lot over the years.
The remake did not disappoint. Highly recommend. =D
Also the Super Mario Guy RPG series. From what I recall they didn't finish. But, what they did finish was really well done. The Family Guy voices are spot on. And it's really funny.
Oh and the puzzles in Bowser's Castle are now playable. Like, the ball clearing puzzle is actually a lot of fun when the inputs work.
What the heck is going on here haha
