Technology@lemmy.world•Teardown Confirms the Trump Phone Is a Gold-Painted HTC U24 ProEnglish
12·1 month agoThe time gap between the news stories about Trump Media’s terms and the release of the Trump Phone was only a month or less. Not enough time to put together something like that. My personal conspiracy theory has been that it was an attempt to embarrass the press. The phones were ready to be shipped and TM changed the terms to say there was no guarantee any “Device will be commercially released”. They let that play out on the blogs for a while then released the phones. Now the narrative can be “look how wrong The Media was” instead of, “Look at how cheap these phones made in China are”.
That’s like being a pet.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•I guess I won't see a concert tonight.English
93·2 months agoWhy bother with big concerts? Unless you’re rich you’re sitting a half mile away watching them on a jumbo screen next to the stage. I prefer small stage venues. You can get close to the action and often talk to the band at the merch table. Go often enough and you’ll see familiar faces. Those are scene-sters that make the rounds and know the up and coming bands worth seeing, local bands too. You might even catch acts before they get big, everybody starts somewhere. Not everyone show is a winner but you won’t spend a week’s pay
Hikermick@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Did they ever define what "woke" is?English
20·2 months agoIt’s the new “politically correct”. Like a good political slogan it means whatever the listener wants it to mean. Political impressionism? Conservative groups knew they hit the jackpot with PC and have been trying to replicate it for years. “Social Justic Warrior” flopped, too wordy. “Woke” really worked for them

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Why does songs from non-English countries have random English words? Can you imagine if English songs randomly have Chinese words?
3·2 months agoMaybe English speaking people with tattoos of Chinese letters is the equivalent?
That’s how life goes, things don’t always go the way we’d hoped. I’m betting you are going to be happy as soon as you set eyes on the little crotch goblin
Nah, the “both sides” crowd will blow it again

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If there was a baby boom, does that mean there will be a death boom
13·3 months agoThe “baby boom” happened between 1946 and 1964, an 18 year period. Not everyone will die within an 18 year period. Some have already passed, some will live into their 90’s and could be around until the 2060’s

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Progressive Group Founded by Bernie Sanders Endorses Billionaire for California Governor
3·3 months agoPeople who don’t think PACs should fund campaigns and themselves refuse to donate to campaigns are surprised when a billionaire runs for office.
I’m counting on the GOP to crash the economy again. I’ve managed to buy the dip twice and look to buy a house big enough to move my dad in
Nobody gonna turn down a day off
Ain’t nobody believing those numbers. They claimed more jobs were created last month than all of last year and the stock market didn’t flinch
But a democratic politician did that one thing thirty years ago!
