Harris widens lead over Trump; voters say she won the debate: poll
  • I don't think Trump looked any better on mute. Even without sound, he looked like he was on tilt. Of course, Harris wanted him on tilt and she got it

    Trump Demands ABC Be Shut Down for Daring to Fact Check Debate
  • Go ask whatever parasite is running the show in Trump's brain - it doesn't make any sense and I remember being very confused by that claim in real time

    Elon Musk sets his sights on Taylor Swift: "I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life"
  • Taylor already had security that would make you shit your pants. Only difference is that Travis would do it for free (and Jason would join in without needing details because he is just that kind of ride or die brother)

    ‘Hitting kids should never be allowed’: Illinois bans corporal punishment in all schools
  • It is entirely possible to give children consequences without hitting them, you lack imagination if the only way you can envision giving a child consequences is to hit them.

    The left loves Tim Walz. Can he unite the Democrats?
  • In case you're not aware, 538 was acquired by Disney/ABC, and he's no longer involved with them.

    So yeah, he's just a pundit now, and his punditry was never that great to begin with. The Model is what made him good

    Oregon wildfire explodes to half the size of Rhode Island.
  • Time to teach a fun fact!

    Up until 2020, the official name of Rhode Island was State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations

    Providence and surrounding towns on the mainland were the "Providence Plantations", and Newport and Portsmouth, on the island also known as Aquidneck Island, were the Rhode Island part of the equation.

    Trump Might Be Too Broke for a $175 Million Bond, Too
  • I suppose I'm not understanding the argument that a relatively slow appeals process violates someone's right to a speedy trial. By definition, if you're appealing, you've already had a trial and lost.

    I do think we are incarcerating too many people, but serving time while waiting on an appeal doesn't inherently violate someone's right to a speedy trial.

    Tammy Murphy Drops Out of Race for Menendez’s Senate Seat
  • Yeah that doesn't mean they're gonna send a Republican to the Senate at all, though, or that it's a risk if you run anyone other than Menendez or a robot.

    Northeastern Republicans are capable of winning governorships as moderates, largely because they'll have to work with a Democratic-controlled legislature to get anything done. The dynamic isn't the same for a legislator vs an executive.

    Source: have watched Massachusetts elect several Republican governors in my lifetime.

    'Why do I need an all-Black cast?' Disney criticizes Peltz remarks
  • Everett Ross is associated with Black Panther in the comics as well... And is basically a token there. But his existence predates the Disney acquisition.

    [Feature Request] An option to hide anime content
  • NSFW tags are built into Lemmy and therefore it's possible to turn that off (whether using Boost, another client, or simply the web front-end). There's no anime tag, so you're basically asking for some kind of chatgpt-esque automagic detection of your disfavored content to filter it out.

    Much easier to either block what you aren't interested in from all, or curate what you DO want to see via subscribed, no?

    Reddit's new paid ads look exactly like user posts
  • I am confident that's the case - there's a reason the mobile website is constantly asking you if you'd like to use the app instead... it's their preferred mode for you to view. Even if it is terrible, it locks you onto Reddit.
