I’ll never not upvote this meme

Yeah, it’s not great. Seems to be a trend all over the world :(

Hi from Portugal. Chega (far right) is a major party in parliament right now (1/3) and arguably PSD (another 1/3) has gone far right lately especially on immigration. So we basically have two out of three parties who are far-right.

One of them even talked in parliament about “diluting Portuguese blood” and “keeping Portugal for the Portuguese”, right before they voted to retroactively prevent all the foreigners from being allowed to apply for nationality, and prevent most of the southeast Asians from being eligible to renew their residency.

They are also talking about trying to amend the constitution, not to put anything good in there.

So uh, you sure about that?

Oh yeah. The principal and the other administrators floated suspension, among other things. My parents had to take off work to come in and fight them with me. The staff were all so hopelessly ignorant of all things IT that they were acting as if I’d been using some kind of malware. After they decided to kick me off, they emailed all my teachers telling them I’d been banned for “hacking” and “deploying computer viruses”. It was all quite surreal. This was in Virginia, USA.

I got banned from the school computers one year back in high school for the “crime” of using portable apps off a flash drive! This was back when IE6 was the standard and I wanted to use Firefox. Maybe 2006? Sounds funny now in retrospect but it was pretty annoying at the time.

Nobody needs a private jet or a superyacht. They are hugely environmentally damaging and serve no purpose. These should be banned, yesterday. If you’re rich, congratulations, you can fly first class on a commercial flight. More than that, fuck you.

It’s currently legal for Canadians to join the Israeli military, as the Foreign Enlistment Act only prohibits citizens from fighting for non-state forces, designated terrorist organizations and militaries of states at war with an ally.

That’s interesting. I have several citizenships - sadly not Canada - and the laws of all of them basically say you can’t serve in another country’s military or you lose your citizenship. The only sorts of exceptions I’m aware of are along the lines of, if NATO is attacked you can serve in another NATO member’s army in a defensive war, sort of thing.

That’s call an invasion, and an illegal annexation.

NVIDIA Aktien haben sich stark gefallen (unverhältnismäßig dem Markt)

Azt hiszem, a hülyeséget nem lehet kijavítani 🫠

I don’t know the context of this but I am assuming based solely on the fact that Meloni wanted it, that it’s bad and therefore we’re happy it was stopped.

It makes sense, same with Iceland. By participating in the EEA, Council of Europe, Schengen etc, they effectively are already beholden to most EU policies but without a seat at the policymaking table.

Thanks friend! I remember GimpShop from back in the day, glad to see something else has picked up the torch.

Don’t brick my brick bro

Wait, why?

Yep, why would anyone bother spending the time and effort to negotiate anything if the US will rip it up a few months later?

Remember IE? Yeah. Probably responsible for a lot of now-superfluous things like this theory suggests.

Ukraine? But there’s still a war going on?

Not sure we care anymore, since the free trade agreement between EU and Mercosur was signed today. We don’t really need to trade with the US anymore. South America provides a huge export market for our products, and they supply better quality agricultural imports than the US can anyway.
