Javier Milei and his massive govt cuts. It’s also losing a lot of nuance in Argentina’s situation vs the US, so even before direct comparisons start, issues arise. But the more well-aware GOP people I know are decently big fans of his tactics of large govt cuts to reduce overall spending.

They love to use him as an example of govt cuts to services to “stabilize” spending, but will also ignore the mechanisms by which people are pulling themselves out of poverty.

Ooo, let’s hear this, I’m ready to argue lmao. Heresy of the highest order

Boxer briefs. Best of all worlds.

Literally wearing some rn, also a fan, they suck to work out in tho, not been a fan of that. Just odd ranges of motion don’t seem to fit with the fit lol

Oh for sure. There is a definite downside to the leagues that’s becoming increasingly hard to ignore. I live in a large college town, so even outside of the team, it ends up being a community event and it’s nice to have all your friends get together, even if for a superficial reason. Probably 80% of my Reddit use was sports subs and discussions not really for the sport, but because I liked the community aspect of it. I’d like to see that again here, so I’ll keep posting away lol

Sports is surprising to me that it hasn’t gotten bigger here. I get that the tech crowd isn’t classically overlapping the sports crowd, but I feel like tech has gotten so mainstream anymore that it’s more sports people into tech than tech people into sports. A lot of the subs and instances are really lacking too, not to comment on the people posting there and doing what they can. It’s a tough landscape right now

Well actually looks like it’s one of the mods posting it, so that’s not likely to change I guess. I’d say to start your own similar community and mod it how you see fit. If that’s how they want to run it, there isn’t anything you can do about it. If the community doesn’t care about moderating content to that degree, what can you do besides demand they change to your image of what it should be?

I mean, if no one is reporting it, they likely aren’t sitting around checking posts every 15 min. Ones that stay up may just be missed; they aren’t notified about any posts through Lemmy simply by being a mod, so unless they see the post themselves, it may just get missed. I missed a post on a sub I mod for 2 weeks; not that it didn’t fit the community, it just didn’t come up in the feed and I don’t always go manually check the sub feed.

Not that deep or dire

That’s a great point, let me ask him about that.

It seems the more observers there are of a hurricane, the mroe likely it is to he destructive. I bet there were hurricanes 2 million years ago with 0 human deaths.

Makes you think…

I have a mutual friend at NOAA who does hurricane tracking in the plane, a lot of them are unlikely to remain employed. You’d think they’d want more people tracking these Dem-manufactured hurricanes, but I guess that isn’t an issue. If they were smart they’d destroy the hurricane making machine

Luckily we have aslyums for that.

Wait, those got defunded. And homelessness is functionally illegal. Guess you better just take the beatings as the better alternative…

If only this plan was written down somewhere in a like…Project 2025 handbook outlining the major objectives and methods.

If only.
