No, but it still means the pandemic is over. The flu is endemic too, and many other diseases are as well. What really would help is if those people who are sick would wear masks when they enter publicly accessible buildings or talk to people. That’s pretty much the main reason why those diseases persist. But people already failed to do that during the pandemic, which is how it became endemic.

And yes, people are insane. We see this on their voting behavior too. And now we’re gonna slide into a climate collapse. Because that’s apparently what we want, as long as we can pretend to be a little comfortable for a while longer.

Jfc… How much of a psychopathic piece of shit do you have to be, to hurt a kid’s feelings like that?! I fucking hate people.

The pandemic is still over. Covid became endemic and there’s both vaccinations and medications for it now, while the latest strains are also much less problematic than the first ones. People since then have stopped wearing masks. I may see like one person a year with a mask.

The EU can be extremely bipolar unfortunately, see the chat control debate currently. I’m actually surprised with how many decent shit gets through sometimes, considering how most of the EU parliaments are mostly made up of conservatives or worse.

facial recognition that is literally everywhere doesn’t work if your masked.

Afaik that’s illegal within the EU. Also, there’s more than just facial recognition. They can even learn the way you walk.

And sick people should wear them too when they go into stores. But where is this actually a topic anyway? I’ve not heard much of anything regarding masks since the pandemic.

And people still try to tell me that Lemmy knows nuance… le sigh

It’s not completely wrong, especially since humans long left the checks and balances of natural selection. The thing that was ultimately bad about eugenics was how the Nazis enforced this onto the general public through selective breeding programs and viewing everyone else as genetically inferior. But saying that genetics and hereditary traits aren’t a thing is just as anti-scientific. In case of the movie it was not just about genetics though, especially since intelligence is just partially based on genetics. It was also about smart people not having kids and consequently failing to do better parenting than the morons that decided to have kids. Some people may escape the cycle of a family that is not good for them, but a lot of them will just carry on the same behavior that they learned from their parents.

Eeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhh… One Idiot in Idiocracy was aware of it and paved the way for the smarter people, but even he had to act dumber than he is to convince the even more moronic masses that this was the right thing to do. And even that almost failed and got the smart guy almost killed.

Don’t Look Up is also more relevant than ever now.

Can you keep them fresh for a whole week after harvesting AND cutting them? Something like champignons seem to just mold away after a couple days already.

Obviously MSM propaganda!1

Just take the blood sample before administering the drugs?

I HAVE to use the audio jack because the BT function went kaputt in less than a year or so. As a poor person I’m still pissed about that because I was once more trying to pay a little more for something that lives a little longer and then they just break on me faster than anything else I had. Not even sure if I should bother buying expensive replacement pads since the stock ones are getting iffy already as well.

So, since he seems identified, do we know the link they’ve made between the two different photos by now?

Ironic.

“Help me, I’ve been kidnapped, and I’ve been missing for ten years. And I’m here. I’m free now!”

Jfc… :( Reminds me of the Turpin case & escape, which unfortunately was not the end of the abuse.

Whether it’s funny or not is a personal thing - I do can laugh about dark humor. But socially this is clearly a double standard and ultimately fuel for the incel losers.

Now imagine the same “joke” but with the genders reversed.

Urethral penetration is a fetish and requires stretching. You can’t just push a penis inside of one. Not even by accident.
