I know it goes against the general consensus in here, but I think the image itself is real, was likely low quality because it’s 25-30 years old, and the Gemini watermark is because someone ran it through to upscale it.

That’s absolutely March of '99. There’s a legitimate question as to whether the calendar says 1999, given all the jpeg, but it did exist.

7·8 days agoNo, she hasn’t. This passed the Senate, still needs to pass the House. Hobbs hasn’t commented on the bill.
Agreed. I enjoy basically everything except a cold wind. A cold, still day in the snow? Lovely. Being out in the rain? Sucks but bearable, as long as there’s no wind. A warm spring/summer breeze? Absolutely amazing. Just no fucking cold wind, please.

Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Being poor is an expense in capitalism

It’s ok to spend a few bucks on something frivolous every once in a while (within reason, of course). Do what you can, however much you can, but also make sure you’ve got the energy to keep going.

Death comes for us all, Oroku Saki, but something much worse comes for you. For when you die, it will be – without honor.

Yeah, it’s been going on for probably close to 2 years now. I got this lovely scenic route option heading home the other day. I’ve never taken any route home other than the main road, so I have no idea why tf it suddenly thought I needed to take my little hatchback 4x4’ing

Definitely Leavitt. The giant cross around her neck confirms it.
Interesting fact - As of 2011, actual horses* are allowed to be service animals.
*Certain ones, at least
Right, but the limitations around even asking about a service animal make it a risky endeavor, so shops often take the safer route and assume any dog is a Service Animal.
It was absolutely ridiculous that he said that. Full stop. No politician should mess that up that badly.
But, I’ve heard people theorizing that, somewhere in the middle of the sentence, he realized that telling the world “fool me twice, shame on me” would have been a disastrous PR nightmare, so he tried to bail out.
It’s the crazification factor.
Here’s the original post about it.
