Work, for a lot of people.

Might be a psychological thing. I’ve also heard during fire evacuations people often tend to follow the crowd into the same exit instead of going to the nearest one.

Possibly because if the assumption that the one with no customers is closed.

I have a feeling that their policies and campaigns are more about maximizing donations instead of votes. Rich backers don’t want them emphasizing progressive economic policies.

Love the dark humor in some of those old cartoons.

So would that make Musk left wing?

Interesting! Rebecca seems to be an overlooked character typically.

Can we acknowledge finally that Bill Clinton most likely was a POS?

IMO SpongeBob SquarePants is a better show than The Simpsons.

Joe Biden, John Kerry and Hillary Clinton all voted in favor of the Iraq War. There was definitely strong Democrat support for it.

Some people think it’s “Looney Toons”, but the truth is the name is a parody of the Silly Symphony cartoons by Disney.

Anna?

I don’t get this either. I prefer having weekly discussions about an episode.

the UK’s Internet age verification law has led to the effective censorship of all LGBT content on Reddit

what a shocking and unexpected turn of events!

Post on /r/transgenderUK entitled “Reddit now censors LGBTQ+ content under OFCOM’s new ‘Online Safety Act’”

post text:
“I honestly can't even think of words to describe how vile this is. Here's a screenshot of what I now see when I search "lgbt" with my VPN switched off. Occasionally a banner appears at the top of the screen saying something about needing to verify ID to access "mature content" but the button doesn't even work. The fact that we're now considered "mature content" makes me feel sick.”

The screenshot referenced in the previous image, showing the results of a search on Reddit for the term LGBT. No results from LGBT-specific subreddits appear; instead, posts from /r/Conservative, /r/Islam, /r/JustUnsubbed, etc are highlighted.

She’s one of my favorites. I actually a commissioned a friend of mine to draw her 😊

I’m excited to see your Anna Williams drawing!

I start liking the show better in season 3. The first two are a little too sentimental in my opinion.

Carrick @carricklp.bsky.social · Jul 17

Anna Williams! Really would like to see that drawing.
