What a fun idea for a contest! Nice photos. My favorite is the blue car covered in lichens.

The antiquated opinions of one strange man should not dictate what type of medical care a person receives. This legal decision makes me very happy.

This may be reading it the wrong way, but to me, it’s the right way. I am very glad to see the vast majority of news organizations stand together in giving Hegseth the finger. It’s refreshing that people can remember how to act like adults, put their partisan bickering aside, and recognize how vital free speech and freedom of the press are. It gives me hope for the future of my country.

This administration is such a nightmare that I NEED some good news.

I’d like to say “nice try, Don” but sarcasm falls short. That flyover was crude, hateful, and obnoxious. It’s made me angry all over again.

Her partner, and presumably prospective husband, was supportive of the project.

I bet he was. He just saved thousands of dollars.

“One day”?

I’ve been ashamed of my government for months… and I know it’s only going to get worse.

Ah. Thanks for clarifying!

I must reluctantly agree. Replace “nervous” with “annoyed” and you’ve got a more accurate headline.

I think people will support democracy.

The biggest lemmy instance…

That seems like a flaw in this reasoning. I don’t think the behavior of society as a whole can be extrapolated from the behavior of Lemmy users.

Ignorance

lol I voted for her anyway, because I thought she was better than the alternative. If I only knew…

My point is that her timid, business-as-usual stance was a dealbreaker for a lot of people. How many voted 3rd party, or didn’t vote at all, because she refused to explicitly oppose genocide? How many Democrats like me still voted for her, but weren’t nearly as enthusiastic as they could have been?

Okay, let’s play infantile, pedantic word games.

I tend not to agree with people who won’t make a clear, strong, ethical stand against genocide. Fuck me, right?

They supported genocide. No amount of handshakes would have overcome that.

Calling someone a “nasty ol’ barracuda” is a high-quality insult. Good one, Calvin!

Sounds to me like she’s doing her job well. Preaching mercy, kindness, and love is what reverends are supposed to do. If Trump feels personally attacked by that, he should ask himself why.

He won’t, though. Lashing out like an angry toddler is his go-to response to anything that doesn’t feed his ego.

Non medically assisted

Anything pro-suicide

Yeah, because at least they’re outside and doing something social, instead of being a hermit like me.

I’ve lived in America all my life. Thank you for this interesting outside perspective. I never would have guessed that the ADA is held in such high regard!

Sometimes, I see a quality discussion between principled people who care deeply about the issues. They both want to do what’s best, but simply disagree on what “best” is.

Their opinions can be so far apart, though, that they’re unable to even comprehend the other position.
