...and at the same time supporting racist and anti-migrant narratives to "fight" the fascist AfD. Which, obviously, just strengthens that narrative and hence the AfD.

It seems like they don't back Trump despite him being a fascist, they back Trump because he is a fascist.

Also, NATO did not "expand its territories". Sovereign countries that saw the Russian aggression seeked membership to be protected.

MacOS, iOS and stock Android, too for that matter. Dark times.

BTW for the uninitiated: That's the actual quote from the former federal drug officer. No joke - we wished it was.

The German fascist party AfD is largely bankrolled by Putin. Go figure.

Yeah, same as wood, who would build houses out of that? /s

Hay is great insulation and it's sealed with protective material anyway in modern houses. Also, even if not: Some tribes make houses out of hay or straw and those houses are quite great in their particular circumstances. There are experiments to use hay bales for structural support as well and it holds up surprisingly well.

Also, fun fact: wooden houses are less dangerous in case of fire than houses made of steel and concrete because the steel rod reinforcements start becoming soft at low temperatures (~200°C) and crash. Wooden houses announce crashing when burning, concrete buildings don't.

I always liked wizards best because of this. They achieved their power more or less on their own, without being born or chosen privileged.

Thank you! Finally someone speaks out, too. Singapore is a totalitarian capitalist dictatorship and the closest thing we have to a true cyberpunk dystopia. It is a horrible place with clean sidewalks.

I see no reason to use any other browser than Firefox and maybe Librewolf.

I think that's a requirement

Maybe it's that homophobia and transphobia are so dominant on more popular platforms that there is a natural migration towards more free and liberal platforms. I always wondered why you see more and more racism, hate and such degeneracy the larger a platform becomes.
