The best is you’ll get updates about senior management going on retreats, hanging out in the box seats at sports games, and record profit growth at the company.

Then they lay you off because one client decided to go with someone else.

Be more worried about GTA VI. We have a whole year of this stupid ass Trump fucking up the world. Can’t play GTA if I’m fighting in a civil war.

Arm yourself first and foremost. Get to know your neighbors. Work in your communities for change. Watch what you post and where. They will come after people posting anti regime on social media.

The difference is, we have millions armed and against this admin. So when the world decides to stop the US. They will have millions inside the country willing to join the united earth against the country. They can’t take guns away, and if they try to just take them from Dems then you won’t have to invade. The civil war will begin and the world will hopefully join in the fight

Exactly and the math doesn’t give this theory a chance really, unless humans create the sentience. Coming back as “anything” would now include the bacteria and whatever else from other planets. Which even doubled, you would have to wait until entire universes recycle.

100%. When my wife asks me this question, I always ask…“are you sure you want to know?”.

Once it was the astronomical odds of reincarnation if bacteria was a factor when reincarnating. The math just isn’t there and your odds of coming back as a human would be older than the universe.

She rarely asks me this ever now lol.

Been in New Orleans during New Year’s. This was a decade ago…they love New Years and don’t push mardis gras during this time. It’s a party town, so they aren’t missing one of the biggest reasons all year to party

USA is an interesting empire. Will be studied for millenia. Thinking 100 or 150 more years left. Could be shorter we’ll see. Probably just turn into an ex super power, with little South American skirmishes everywhere…wait

Breathing #1. She should probably stop that.

MTG really fits the shoveling cash into a furnace thing

Same thing happened to me but on PS+. Sea of Stars for one. It was free at one point, then I went back to play. “Not Available”. Kinda bullshit

I love Fox News when they tackled this. Downplaying Sabrina and holding up their queen Sydney Sweeney. Pathetic.

Dude the source is fine. It has one arm in the United States. Runs as a non-profit and only takes 30% of funding from any one source. Are you saying anything that touches the US isn’t legitimate?

These agree with you? Funny because they came from my OG post. Are you saying you agree Maduro is a dictator now? Lol. Regardless, you can have a position against Trump going into the country ( I do) but still realize that the dude is dogshit for the country.

One of your sources work for Maduro and the last one is an opinion piece by one man lol.

Check the sources in this thread. It’s not. Listen, I dont want Trump and his bullshit in that country. But just looking at the facts here, dude is a dictator. The country has suffered for it. It won’t improve with a Trump puppet regime, that’s for sure.

If you look what happened since 2013 when he took over. He is a dictator though. Trump is actually following his playbook, but in a lighter since. Some examples…

Electoral Fraud and Illegitimate Power

Maduro’s grip on power relies fundamentally on electoral manipulation. In the July 28, 2024 presidential election, Venezuela’s National Electoral Council (CNE)—controlled by Maduro loyalists—declared he won with 51.2% of the vote despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The opposition collected 83.5% of voting tally sheets showing their candidate, Edmundo González Urrutia, actually won with approximately 67% of votes compared to Maduro’s 30%. The CNE refused to release disaggregated results or conduct post-election audits, and its website remains inactive. International observers, including the Carter Center and Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, documented widespread fraud throughout the electoral process. The government disqualified opposition candidate María Corina Machado, obstructed voter registration for millions, imposed restrictions on opposition poll watchers, and used state resources during campaigns. The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights concluded it cannot recognize Maduro’s re-election as democratically legitimate due to the “severe disruption to Venezuela’s constitutional order”.

Following the contested 2024 election, Maduro launched “Operation Tun Tun” (Operación Tun Tun), a brutal crackdown described by experts as “state terrorism”. Authorities conducted door-to-door raids to detain anyone with suspected opposition ties, creating what human rights groups call a “climate of terror” intended to terrify Venezuelans into submission.According to official figures, over 2,000 people were arrested in the first month after the election, including at least 129 children. As of July 2025, 853 political prisoners remain behind bars. These detentions are characterized by systematic torture, enforced disappearances, and arbitrary detention without warrants. Victims reported beatings, electric shocks, suffocation, and confinement in dark, overcrowded cells. Amnesty International documented that at least 198 children have been subjected to unfair detention, torture, and abuse, with four months passing before many saw their families.A 2024 UN fact-finding mission report concluded there are “reasonable grounds to believe that the crime of persecution on political grounds has been committed”. Between 2015 and 2017 alone, Venezuelan security forces carried out 8,292 extrajudicial executions, with 22% of all homicides in one year committed by state forces. The UN mission has documented that Venezuela’s intelligence agencies have used sexual and gender-based violence to torture detainees since at least 2014.

Fighting the real pressing issues I see. Who the fuck cares, it’s been like this for decades. Let it be and move on to real issues. My god, always the distraction with this Trump fuck.

Glad MAGA isn’t on Lemmy. They would be coming after your job and family for that one! 🤣
