I’d prefer something higher resolution, but it’s got a bunch of upvotes. If the people seem to like it, I’m not going to remove it.

Numb. Sad. Mostly numb.

I was cheering for Kamala. I wanted the US to succeed. She had the big rallies, the celebrity endorsements, the polls were saying it was neck-and-neck. It looked like sanity was going to prevail. Then Trump just basically sweeps it and it’s like…oh. It’s easy to call the Americans “stupid” or whatever insults I’ve seen flying around the internet, but there was a vote. He won the vote. Over 72 million people think that Trump and the Republican ideology lines up best with their ideology. Who am I to argue with that? I don’t agree with it, but I guess that’s democracy in action. Regardless of what lies were told or what disinformation was spread, people overwhelmingly went out, voted for ol’ Donny, and this is the result. That’s how she goes I guess…? I don’t fucking know anymore dude.

My heart absolutely breaks for the people of Ukraine. I’m sure they’ll lose their US support come January. They don’t deserve that.

This is where we solicit your opinions, how does our community feel?

You’re more than welcome to post on shitty food porn. There’s not a lot of activity and the votes will let you know if it’s the right place (I don’t remove posts unless they’re breaking rules). It kind of has two interpretations - pictures of shitty food (self explanatory) or food porn that’s shitty (ie bad lighting, bad presentation, etc).

Or let me know if you start an “average food porn” community and I’m more than happy to link it in the sidebar of SFP.

Not the OP, but I’ve got the following bots blocked and it massively improved my Lemmy experience.

Good news then, because there’s a second half to the story!

Hey, that’s my city! I’m sad to say that I’m not overly surprised. I don’t know if it’s an everywhere thing, but there’s a vocal minority in Victoria that have a real stick up their ass about bike lanes.

Shitty? Bruh, that looks fucking delicious. I’d demolish that whole pan.

I’m sure there’s an argument to be made about not buying things you can’t afford, but looking at the graph in that article, people are going to get fucked on mortgage renewals. Anyone that locked in for 3/4/5 years are going to be renewing between now and the next couple of years and going from BOC rate of 0.25% to 5% or more is going to hurt.

Someone I know is looking at renewing their mortgage in the next couple of months and they’re already looking at a jump from 3% to >6%.

You’re on thin ice posting food porn worthy stuff here 😋

On the plus side, you can try baking apples again with your new charcoal briquette.
