Seems the spam from mastodon.social is spiking again... two hits in the the last 24 hours and rising.... Looks like we might need to temporarily silence them **again**

It’s finally happened. Trump’s business empire is on the verge of total ruin as his decades-long practice of fraudulently inflating his property values led a NY judge to CANCEL the business certificates of the Trump Organization entities.

Kudos to NY Attorney General Letitia James for bringing this all to light and achieving accountability against Trump. He’s a fraud. He’s a rapist. And he’s a clear and present danger to our democracy.

But justice has caught up to him, and it is glorious to see.

So I know we chat, but I havent checked in a while how your life is going and shit... How are things in your world, you and the family doing ok?

I will give Biden this... when he is lucid enough to actually know where he is and what day it is, he does pick a firm side... Granted, its all just for show and votes for him.. Now that I think about it... im not too fond of the fact that the president isnt trying to act more in the place of a neutral negotiator than a protestor.. but what a ya gonna do.

President Joe Biden joined the United Auto Workers on their picket line Tuesday. Take a listen to what he had to say.

I just found an amazing new local resteraunt. Chinese, they bill themselves as a "noodle house"... mostly home made noodles of all sorts that are amazing. But they also have like 20 kinds of dumping.... Very impressed!

Can we get an MMA fight between Bill Nye and whoever represents the flat earth society... I may be a scientists but I am not above solving our differences with combat.

@freemo flat earth is a distraction. Hollow earth is where it's at 😉😋😂

I am probably one of the most religious atheists you could ever meet...

It also doesn’t help many grew up watching the Discovery channel to further fortify their believe in “Ancient Aliens”

And Jesus said unto them "Holla at cha' boy!" and they replied "verily"

Sometimes im just astonished by how out there some conspiracy theories are... like not landing on the moon, I guess i can get that cause we are so far removed from it and there isnt any good way to verify it personally... its all trust...

But flat earthers and stuff like that... i just cant get how someone can be that level of stupid...

Apparently it is a conspiracy theory (at least with one person) that nukes dont actually exist and were never used. I mean... i could build you a geiger counter from scratch, i could literally prove nuclear fission with very little parts... how can this stuff even be doubted?

Interesting fact of the day: There is absolutely no legal check on a presidents ability to launch a nuclear missile.

That means for 4 years trump literally could have launched one at any moment on a whim and there was absolutely nothing stopping him other than his own choice not to do so.

Honestly as scary as that sounds, and just as scary that Biden, a senile old coot, has the same access... it amazes me neither of these guys did just for the fuck of it. I guess thank god they have some sense of self preservation cause neither of these twits are holding back for our sake....

If someone has a spare vote for us (lor.sh) and believe that we're worthy of it, we'll be grateful 🙂

I did this for transportation - to try and convince my wife that driving a car was not, in fact, safer than biking. I don't remember the absolute numbers, but biking and walking were the lowest risk of death or serious injury per mile traveled for personal transportation, and nearly the same (the Williamsburg colonists were onto some with their walking helmets).

Driving a car is three times more dangerous than walking/biking per mile.
Riding a motorcycle is 5 times more dangerous than driving a car (which is maybe where her false intuition comes from). In fact, motorcycles are equivalent risk to active duty in the Iraq war (as an American - we prefer to kill people from other nations to feed the MIC).

Buses and trains were 5 times safer than cars - i.e. safer than walking/biking. I take my bike on both quite a bit for longer distances.

Airplane travel was the safest of all per mile (this would be 2005, when I sold my car and got a bicyle). I wonder about it now that many pilots are dropping dead from the mandated Pfizer shots and airlines are considering relaxing copilot requirements.

What OS do you run?

@failedLyndonLaRouchite She is driving a bit of a distance... I'd be curious to do the math on that actually and see how they compare.. But considering I know quite a few dead older people from COVID and cant think of a single person I've ever known who died in a car crash... well... that doesnt track.

There is a small chance I may have COVID as I was recently exposed.... My mom is insisting on stopping by while she is in town to give me a hug...

I told her I have COVID it wouldnt be safe, no...

She replies "I dont care I'll take the risk"

To which I keep telling her "Well I refuse to potentially murderer you over a hug whether your willing to take that risk or not."
