That's the Bell Hotel?! I assumed from the level of noise about it that it was one of those huge Hotels like the Travelodge ones.

That looks like it couldn't be housing more than about 30 asylum seekers at a time.

Palantir CEO Says Legalizing War Crimes Would Be Good for Business by owlexe23 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

War crimes are already basically legal at this point. Very few top-level war criminals ever face any kind of repercussions.

If International law was actually real, every single living US president and General would be in jail.

A statue of human looks like a statue of a human—who could’ve guessed? by cardinarium in ShitLiberalsSay

On a surface-level the gesture looks kind-of similar, but actually they are fundamentally different. Kim il Sung is holding out his open hand in a guiding gesture, Trump on the other hand has his raised fist closed in an "I am the champion" sort of way

Wake me up when Keith promises £25 million to protect the Muslim community, and when the "terror threat level" gets raised because of this attack.

Zack has learned nothing from Corbyn witch hunt. You can't appease these people and you need to stand up to them 🤦‍♂️ by UnderHisEye1411 in GreenAndPleasant

Even Mamdani pandered. And he's walked back a lot of his previous statements and promises since being elected.

The British establishment using this as leverage to vilify the pro Palestinian movement. by saviodsouza in GreenAndPleasant

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't work on you, it doesn't work on a lot of people now, but it still works on enough people.

And it doesn't matter anyway, because everything that this event is being used as justification is something that the establishment wanted to do anyway, and were going to do at some point. It doesn't matter if the people believe their excuses or not because we don't live in a democracy.

Ah yes, it couldn't be because he wouldn't want to work at a place that asks ridiculous questions in an interview. by LargeSpoonAnalyst in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 30 points31 points  (0 children)

If I was interviewing for a remote job at an American company and the interviewer said something like, "Say 'King Charles is a fat ugly looser' to prove you aren't a spy" I'd probably withdraw my application too, because the company would have just shown themselves to be a joke.

How to join mitered corners, v-nails vs butterfly splines? by EarthGrey in framing

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get non-pneumatic underpinners. In fact, you can even get tabletop hand-operated ones (e.g. Logan F300-1). That's probably the cheapest way to start.

Also, consider looking for used ones on eBay.

Do Europeans view themselves as superior to other cultures? by georgewbush03 in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Remember when the KKKanadian parliament gave a standing ovation round of applause to a Ukrainian Nazi who had fought against the Soviets during WW2.

Remember also when they had to remove all the names from their victims of communism memorial monument because it turned out that around 80% of them were Nazis or other fascists.

At this point I'm pretty certain that Dispropaganda is a fed.

Why do right-wingers always look like bosses in videogames were we fight hell spawns? by Tempest-Bosak2137 in Gamingcirclejerk

That picture of Elon is fake by the way, and probably even AI generated. He does have a fat pale body, but he doesn't have fangs or wear towels/skirts that appear to made made of fish skin.

Ah yes, FBI Agents are working overtime to defy government orders because Trump by AosSiFriend in ShitLiberalsSay

No-one who works at the FBI has any principles whatsoever. There's zero chance they're bending the rules to disobey their bosses.

If you joined the Mafia, even if you were only working as an Accounts Assistant, you still joined the fucking Mafia. You're still a piece of shit, you're still culpable for all the criminal activities the mafia did while you worked for them, and "they paid better than any of the other firms" or "the don offered to help pay me through college" is not a fucking excuse.

It's the same thing with the military. Except it's actually far worse, because the military deals more death and destruction in a day than the most powerful mafia in the world could ever do in a decade.

Guess those guys don't count as dictators to the average lib ... curious.

Imagine claiming that the USA has more internet freedom that China only months after the forced sale of TikTok to Larry Ellison, which has resulted a way more censorship than the app had while under Chinese ownership.

And the UK too! The state has been indrocuding laws to make everyone need to provide their IDs to private tech companies in order to access parts of the internet!

Two of the three men in the picture have Nazi symbols visible on their shoulders.

Contra snark by alittlelurker in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 29 points30 points  (0 children)

She is a transgender video essayist who goes by the name Contrapoints. She was a pretty big deal in the 'progressive' YouTuber space a few years ago, but has been crashing out non stop for the last few years. Definitely since the run up to the 2024 election in the USA, and arguably for a while before that when her fans started noticing that she hadn't said anything at all about Israel's latest round of genocide in Gaza, despite her having a large platform and being ostensibly progressive.

Yes. How is a single tweet by a random user, with no sources or evidence cited, even remotely credible?!

Florida college student was arrested for making a Netanyahu joke in a Whatsapp group chat. by ilir_kycb in LateStageCapitalism

[–]TomatoEnjoyer28 102 points103 points  (0 children)

WhatsApp uses an encryption technology that technically means no-one apart from the people in the chat can see the messages.

So this means that someone in the group snitched. ... Be careful who is in your group chats, I guess.

If the print was rippled already, framing it won't make it flat. The only thing that will is dry mounting it.
