Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the last new (to you) band you got really into?
1·15 days agoI got really into Flopsy’s Dream and their debut album Pleasant Pudding last summer.
It’s the secondary project of Tom Davies, a Geoguessr YouTuber I’ve been following for years. Soft, laid-back rock that hit the spot just right for me.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Why you running if you got nothing to hide ?
2·17 days agoDown, boy.
Unfortunately this man is not the issue. It’s the culture that allows him to do what he is doing. Everybody knows who he is and what he stands for. But he’s still not dangling from the gallows, so clearly the system has failed to correct itself.
He will die eventually, probably from one hamberder too many but the troubles won’t be over then.
You could try flowers and hugs instead, I guess? Whatever works best.
Are you saying you’re suffering a dearth of targets?
Again, if this is not the time to exercise your supposed God-given right to bear arms to ward off a tyrannical government then the whole point of the 2nd Amendment is moot.
I’ve said it before: You guys aren’t going to vote your way out of this pickle. I hate to say this (sincerely!) but this is going to end in violence one way or another. 🙁
And the gun manufacturers are literally making a killing.
I get the point the comic is trying to make, but saying that more guns means more people die from guns isn’t really a “gotcha”… In places with fewer guns, fewer people are using guns to do their murderings.
Fair point but see below…
I’d be more interested in a graph that shows total murders per capita compared to gun ownership per capita.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate
The United States has over 4 times more murders per capita than France, for instance.
And you really shouldn’t discount just how easy it is to kill someone with a gun. I don’t have the stats at hand right now but knife related killings (as an example) are way less likely to happen because victims have a comparatively good chance to survive a knife attack.
There are solid reasons for keeping weapons that are designed to kill human beings out of the hands of most of us.
So where is the well-regulated militia defending the United States with their huge arsenal of guns? We’re not hearing anything about valiant protectors of the constitution taking up arms against the domestic enemies that are ICE, MAGA, etc…it’s almost as if the whole spiel about needing guns to resist a tyrannical government was BS all along. 🤔
It’s an old meme but it checks out.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•Why bother resisting? (variations in description)
1·23 days agoIs there some orange dude in the UK threatening to crush people? Or is this scene supposed to be set in Australia? (or any other place where they drive on the left, unlike the United States)?
Moskau, Moskau, hahahahaha!
For more musical goofiness involving Russia, check out Boney M. - Rasputin (also from Germany.)
The evil, slightly manic expression on Kate’s face was what gave her away for me.
Good thing they brought scoped rifles so they can hit the perp right in that one skin pore top left of the wart on his upper lip.
Because nobody is stopping them.
