SLfgb@feddit.nlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Now that it's Christmas Eve, what are you all planning to do for either Christmas or Christmas Eve?4·6 months agoI’m sorry to hear this. Hope you come home to an unblemished home!
SLfgb@feddit.nlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Now that it's Christmas Eve, what are you all planning to do for either Christmas or Christmas Eve?82·6 months agoGo to work, then panick that all the shops are closed and all I brought to eat is dry crackers…
SLfgb@feddit.nlOPto World News@lemmy.ml•Assange's first speech since 2018 streaming live tomorrow! - PACE hearing on Julian Assange's detention and conviction and their chilling effects on human rights32·9 months agoOnly a Clinton shill who doesn’t know those emails contain all the dirt the DNC had collected on the Trump campaign would say that.
A New York court ruled this publication, which btw showed the DNC had rigged the primaries / stolen the primaries from Bernie, and pushed media to always talk about Trump in the mistaken Clinton would easily win against him, was First Amendment protected by the highest order.

Kind of annoying but I promise the page is technically not paywalled.

Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Anyone can and does edit it. Heck, I know I have.

SLfgb@feddit.nlOPto World News@lemmy.ml•Assange's first speech since 2018 streaming live tomorrow! - PACE hearing on Julian Assange's detention and conviction and their chilling effects on human rights8·9 months agoUnfortunately I’ll be at work at the time but I will be watching it soon after, I’m sure! It feels like a profound moment for humanity, that he can speak freely again. Many people are going to be watching live and hang on his every word. The pressure must be enormous. I’m very interested what he has to say.

SLfgb@feddit.nlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmies of Lemmy do you believe in eugenics? why or why not?6·9 months agoYea. It exists and is a terrible idea. Like it’s a creepy ideology that rears its head in too many places.
Selective breeding of humans is not and never was a good idea. It comes with forced sterilisation, marriage bans, stigmatisation of characteristics contributing to naturally occuring diversity, supremacist thinking and fascist pseudo-scientific tendencies.
Oh yes definitely The Little Prince is a must-read.
The Brothers Lionheart, by Astrid Lindgren is one of my childhood favourites. Originally Swedish but has been translated into English.
The Letter for the King by Tonke Dragt another childhood fav., it has been translated from Dutch. Actually, anything by Dragt I loved, but not sure which have translations or not.
In terms of adult fiction, I was hooked on Stig Larsson’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series (he only wrote the first 3 though).
Someone mentioned Kurt Vonnegut; I recommend the one I’ve read of his: Slaughterhouse 5.
The Circle still gives me pause more than 5 years later. It’s by Dave Eggers.
Switzerland is not an EU country…
SLfgb@feddit.nlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If the US stayed out of other countries politics and there were no coups or installation of people favorable to the US what would the world look like?4·10 months agoLol, what? Australia is a US lackee more than anywhere else. And the CIA was definitely involved in the Whitlam sacking.
Wow, rude.
I tried to watch the video, couldn’t get through it. Hence the request for a tldr. Honestly I’d be fine if just ignored but y’all don’t need to make assumptions about my abilities and hound me for a simple request.
Umm… I don’t follow.
I’m sorry I can’t watch these type of edited fast-paced ramble videos. Give me a 1hr uncut but not this.
