Iced is always "stronger".

Once the ice fully melts, it's the same amount of alcohol in liquid. But until that happens the liquid is higher alcohol.

Frozen also tends to get drunken slower to avoid brain freeze.

So if pacing go frozen, if trying to get wasted drink ice as fast as possible

The price was announced first... So it's not related.

Adjusted for inflation though, and $80 is the normal price it's been for 40 years.

I just don't know why people are shocked Nintendo is doing this, they've always been one of the first companies to increase prices.

instance in my lifetime

Because since Jimmy Carter the DNC chair has been further right than the Dem voters base...

And that stopped being true about two months ago

Did it ever occur to you why about two months ago suddenly mainstream media started being ok criticizing Dems?

The oligarchs want us to fail. Because we just won.

Stop doing what theyre manipulating you into doing

and I’m doubtful 40+ years of masquerading as progressives and ruling as conservatives is going to change anytime soon.

Then it sounds like you're ignorant both of how the DNC works and Ken Martin's history running Minnesota's state party...

The DNC chair is a dictator, he calls all the shots and is accountable to no one. For all intents and purposes the DNC chair is the national party.

It's been less than two months since Martin took over the DNC. Don't blame him for what happened before he had total control.

But seriously, look into what Minnesota has been up to. Loads of progressives and turned a battleground into a solid blue state.

His main concern is winning elections, so he doesn't fight progressives in primaries, because that's what voters want.

This isn't blind loyalty. If I didn't have valid reasons to support the DNC I can assure you I wouldn't be doing it

No, Dem voters hate uncharismatic politicians with policy to the right of the Dem voting base.

And Hillary and Harris still almost won because Trump is so shit.

The part that needs to change is not the gender of the candidate

, as the billionaires run the Democratic Party too

No, neoliberals have held the DNC chair for decades. And they did whatever billionaires said.

The current chair of the DNC is not a neoliberal. He used to be Minnesota's state chair, and if he acts like he did then he'll be the most progressive chair we've had in 30 years, arguably 50 years.

The fight over the party already happened and the neoliberals lost.

Don't blame the new guy for what the old guy did

Hillary lost because of a multi-decade campaign against her by the right wing propaganda machines.

Hillary lost because the only voting demographic that hates her more than Republican voters, is Dem voters.

For valid reasons related to her unpopular policy and zero charisma.

It doesn't matter how many comments you make denying it, people started paying attention to politics again.

Who gives a shit?

We could run Dick Cheney and they'd say the same shit about him.

They're going to say anyone with a D by their name is a fucking communist, it literally doesn't matter what the fucking Republicans say, and there is no logical reason we should move to the right of our own voters because of what Republicans say.

Because, and I truly hate to break this to you:

Republicans fucking lie and Santa isn't real.

The problem with Hillary wasn't Republicans saying she sucked because they were "scared" she lost because no one fucking likes her or her policies.

If you add every single undecided to Schumer...

The survey by the liberal firm Data for Progress, first shared with POLITICO, found that 55 percent of Democratic likely voters said they supported or leaned toward supporting Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, while 36 percent backed or leaned toward backing Sen. Schumer. Nine percent were undecided.

AOC would still have a double digit lead...

It's not

Venn diagram of racism and sexism is pretty much a single circle. And they'd treat an old white straight catholic conservative male just as badly.

Don't listen to the neoliberals who blame Hillary and Harris' lose on sexism. They lost due to their conservative policies and almost conplete lack of charisma and authenticity.

AOC is essentially the complete opposite in those regards

I'm honestly surprised they're not being sent to Russia to be used in the meat grinder...

Pulled all of my funds out of the market months ago...

No idea why people thought leaving their retirement funds in the stock market with trump in charge would be a good idea.

There's an issue where trolls will "@" people who blocked them because it will still send a notification.

Sometimes it's just people who always do it, so it's likely unintentional.

But it's pretty obvious from a post history glance when they're only doing it with people who never respond to them. And definitely obvious after someone tells them about it

Example:

https://lemmy.world/comment/15711438

Is there anyway to make mention notification abide by the blocklist?

If not should we be reporting harassment to our admins or the admins of the account doing it?

 
 

So after the last couple years of seeing how protests get treated based on how much larping they're doing, I bought some plates and a carrier.

I'm fully aware the only thing it does is stop me from dying immediately from a body shot, and only covers like 10% of me.

But the only reason I got it was because cops have been showing for decades they won't start violence against protesters when even just a few are plated up and holding a rifle. And I got a feeling there's gonna be some protests again.

My issue is I look like a nazi's wet dream even when I'm not geared up, and it's not like someone can read a Tshirt under a plate carrier.

I wanted to grab some patches from SRA, but all they sell is stickers, and Etsy just has vague slogan patches you wouldn't be able to read from five feet away.

I did see some links where the reddit sub had been doing mass patch orders over the years. Is there any community not on the big social media doing the same?

Or any other methods to show you're an ally besides just facing the right way?

I'm also a little hesitant to slap something like an antifa rose on because I can't see trump not declaring them a terrorist group at some point.

 

Somewhat satire, somewhat actual investigation.

Pretty much same vibes as the Daily Show
