I like this title a bit better, but someone posted this story an hour ago already: https://lemmy.world/post/31481750

However crazy, i still expect him to win the lawsuit.

I don’t downvote them, but I am quick to judge someone is just looking for attention. Negative attention is still attention. I do not bother to check whether my assumption is correct and also don’t judge them, but just don’t want to get involved. I can imagine someone else chooses not to ignore but to downvote. I also wouldn’t upvote someone’s suicidal thoughts, so maybe I just don’t know how to deal with it either way

WASHINGTON (AP) — Health officials want you to think twice before buying one of those brightly colored little bottles often sold at gas stations, convenience stores and smoke shops.

Sometimes called “gas station heroin,” the products are usually marketed as energy shots or cognitive supplements but actually contain tianeptine, an unapproved drug that can be addictive and carries risks of serious side effects.

U.S. poison control centers have reported a steady rise in calls linked to the drug for more than a decade. And last month the Food and Drug Administration sent a warning to health professionals about “the magnitude of the underlying danger or these products.”

Real headline: White House slams ‘utter failure’ of anti-Trump protests as America celebrates Army’s historic milestone

Necessary resources*

no, only ‘if necessary’ lol

Can someone pitch this to the Onion? they’ve been losing credabilty after Trump took office.

Really hoping the people in the middle east will be able to access aid the coming weeks/months/years, feels like a rhyming shit show is about to unfold there

Imagine she waited until they boarded the plane, yikes

I am not Muslim and to me cutting the throat of a cow does not sound like something God wants people to be doing to celebrate him. Aside from that, you are the one who gets to decide what you do as you’ll be the one bearing the consequences. Both the option of repeating it next year and not will have results you might like or might not like. Best advise I can give is to look at the reasoning behind why you would make a certain choice. Try to uncover what your intentions are. And this is in no way meant cynical, try to uncover what God wants for you to do.

The defendants story makes up for it

A lot of advertising is annoying and misleading, even good advertising can lead to people buying stuff they don’t need. I am definitely not pro-advertising but it does serve more than monopolistic capitalism, especially on a more local level.

I 100% agree and totally get why I am being downvoted, but just disabling advertising or banning tracking cookies are not a magic fix to save the internet from the perspective of the companies that now show these ads. But I am definitely I favour of changes, the enshittication went way to far already. But there is more than big social media platforms is what I mean to say.

To be honest, even though kidnapping a eu official is a much bigger deal than a Swedish citizen, I totally understand why Greta’s involvement lead the news before. But now Greta is safe is am really glad the news is continuing to cover this. Could be more, yes, but if this happened last year there would be a lot less news coverage for sure.

I’m not a fan of being tracked so don’t get me wrong, but without the money earned with advertising the Internet will look very different and not only in a good way.

Netanyahu fits that list no doubt

I understand every single word and am up to date about what’s happening in LA and some other places, but can’t make sense of this. Can someone please simplify this for me?

I agree, but their journey has been a lot more influential than your average protest (we need both).

In real life i try to give people the benefit of the doubt, try to stand up for the underdog, give people second chances etc but in my life i’ve come to see that, unlike in real life, there are actors who want to come across like regular people but are not really a regular guy with just another opinion. I have no clue about this user in particular, but i tend to be extra sceptical when it’s about a controversial topic - especially if a country, community or company involved who has in other cases hired people to influence opinions via social media. Isreal is one of those, so something like them never responding is more sus than when it’s some unimportant topic. Still think it’s good to be a positive person, but you might lend someone a hand you wouldn’t if you knew their true intention (though again, i dont know what this guys intention is).
