Yeah, sorry for being snarky, but the Fediverse refers to all federated software. So, Fedia.io for example, is an MBin instance. Which is different than Lemmy and Mastodon but they can all interact with each other. They’re all part of the overall Fediverse. So your comment was just kind of awkwardly phrased and redundant.

Which is both Fediverse and Mastodon.

Well… yeah.

Yeah, there’s no probably about it. That’s just the joke.

Tim Onion

Wait, the CEO of The Onion goes by “Tim Onion” on Bluesky? My word, this whole thing just keeps getting funnier.

Just when the country needed a laugh the most, The Onion went and did the funniest thing they could possibly do. This is a wonderful morning.

Jesus fucking Christ. Putin must be ecstatic.

Bluesky is like the Fediverse equivalent of bumper bowling. Don’t get me wrong, there’s definitely a place for it, and it’s better than staying on Twitter, but I do hope it ends up being just a stepping stone for people to get comfortable before taking off the guard rails and moving on to actual federated services like Mastodon or Lemmy.

It’s strange here in the US too. I don’t know anyone that has a problem with that. That kind of puritanical attitude about drinking is not the prevailing sentiment here. Sure, my friends and I aren’t getting plastered at BBQ’s like we did in college, but it’s not like we aren’t having some beers at a cookout just because half of us have kids now. It’s just a vocal religious minority making a lot of noise. Don’t get me wrong, this country does have a different, more uptight, relationship with alcohol than Europe, but it’s not nearly as extreme as it may appear online and in media.

There’s actually been research showing that CEO and other senior executive roles tend to attract a disproportionate amount of people with psychopathic tendencies when compared to the general population.

Here’s an article about it.

Yep, that’s him. The dude hates ugly people but apparently doesn’t own a mirror. I make a point of not attacking people for their looks, because it can’t be helped, and I’m not exactly Ryan Gosling over here lol… But when you make it the core of your business, then it’s fair game. It’s almost impressive that Mike Jeffries has managed to be uglier on the inside than he is on the outside.

Yeah, Netflix released a documentary a few years ago called “White Hot: The Rise & Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch” that partially addressed what a fucking sleazy guy Mike Jeffries is. While it didn’t get into any claims related to this news, it definitely made it clear that he’s an asshole and solely responsible for Abercrombie’s pivot from being an outdoors oriented clothing brand to selling wildly unrealistic body standards to teenagers at malls in the 2000s. It’s been awhile, but from what I recall, nobody interviewed in the documentary had anything nice to say about him.

And the irony is, Mike Jeffries looks like Gary Busey having a bad hair day, but he would’ve taken one look at me when I was 15 and been like “I don’t want him wearing our clothes, he’s too short and he’s got acne. Gross.” That’s the kind of prick he is. He despises anyone that doesn’t meet his standard of beauty and genuinely did not want “ugly” people wearing A&F.

So I can’t say I’m all that surprised to learn he was doing much more horrific shit behind the scenes, too. And now with this news breaking, I’m just starting the count-down until he gets his own multi-part episode of Behind The Bastards.

Hard to say, he’s been dead for 94 years, but… Maybe? 🤔

Moscow stands accused of launching a massive campaign of vote buying, funneling cash through its proxies into the accounts of ordinary voters, as well as using social media to sow fears about the prospect of EU membership leading to a direct conflict with Russia.

Watching Putin fail never gets old.

The six part series was released between May 16th 2023 and June 1st 2023.

Good. I remember seeing that video back when this all happened and she’s a vile piece of shit.

Imagine living such a privileged life that the closest you’ve ever come to feeling oppressed was when you had to wear a mask to pick up dino nuggets at Walmart. Preppers have always been clowns, but COVID definitely ruined what little facade there ever actually was about the “movement” being anything other than a masturbatory LARP.

Edit: This article is old but it made me laugh. If a moderator wants to remove it they can.

Dude you know for a fact now that this article is a year old and you’re not going to delete it yourself? That means you’re just deliberately continuing to spread misinformation about a food recall, and that makes you a special kind of jerk.

Go shout “fire” in a movie theater, prick.
