Link for Lemmings, since OP is only a static image right now

Maybe don’t buy an ebike you can’t get parts for next year. There’s enough nonstandard parts on that thing I wouldn’t mess with it. And even though rad powers new battery tech seems good the lack of a recall should end the company even harder than the recall would have. Someone in my metro area had a rad power catch fire in their house a few months ago and while yeah it’s still uncommon…

Good news, yesterday it hit 40, everything melted, and today it’s all frozen for proper Minnesota winter next week where we’re supposed to be getting sub zero temps! I’ve never been this thrilled for shitty cold freeze thaw cycles.

The photographer is apparently Christopher Katzarov with the Canadian press, according to what I saw on Reddit. (I live in Minneapolis, Reddit is kinda a necessary evil right now.)

Also found this one on a stock image site, seems to be same event and same photographer.

Four hours later, I just checked and it’s still up lol. Nobody say anything.

There was a Minnesota Fraternal Order of Police statement of support for the ICE murderer. Pigs protect pigs.

Also this is the same police force that murdered George Floyd. And fuck all has been done about them since, Frey talks big but can’t or won’t accomplish anything.

I didn’t vote for Frey, but I’ll give him credit for saying the right stuff. The White House is full of bullshit and ICE needs to get the fuck out of Minneapolis.

I’ve seen a few people with talons like this in Florida but most places it’s not practical or socially acceptable to wear flip flops for all occasions and year round. You’re not getting those things in normal shoes.

There were a lot of people who voted for AOC and Trump. AOC went out and talked to some of them, I think she posted video of some of those conversations but she talked about it a bit on social media and iirc a big refrain was it was working class uneducated people who wanted change and something other than the status quo and felt that both Trump and AOC were both something other than the status quo. Well, they were right, in an awful way.

Funny story, in that week between Biden dropping out and Harris getting the nomination, in a Lemmy thread wondering who other than Harris could be a decent presidential nominee, I mentioned Walz. I got a lot of “who?” and people commenting that he really didn’t have the name recognition to carry the ticket with that short of a time frame.

Linkin Pork

I refrigerate my cabbage, does jazz cabbage need to be refrigerated?

A local surplus store has one on display (not for sale). It’s an interesting piece of medical history. Hopefully it remains history.

Fill it with something more appropriate and I think it’d be a neat Halloween party treat. Visually it turned out cursed in the best way.

Interesting. I think I missed those other posts, or at least I don’t remember them.

Maybe the other person who said their racist history take got moderated is right? Imagine having a personal vendetta against Wikipedia, lol.

They’re up to something. When it’s pointed out that they’re a new account, the response was “is there something wrong with the post”, not “yeah, I’m new here, why does that matter?” Because someone actually new to Lemmy won’t know about the weirdness we’ve been having recently with new accounts.

I don’t understand why they’re doing this, though. Any non-sockpuppets have any ideas?

Transit is great, maybe see if your transit agency is willing to pay for it, mine does and that’s why I started using it in the first place.

I had to screenshot after my 1am trip home from work on New Year’s Day because it was the first and only time I’ll ever be #1 on my local route, lol.

Nah. I’m a former Cast Member and I’ve spent some time injured on Disney’s dime in a much lower stakes version of this. If they’re able to sit upright they’ll be given seated light duty tasks like putting hangers on clothing and gluing popsicle sticks on Olaf butts to make fans for the guests. It’s honestly the best workers comp experience I’ve ever had, they’ve got on property doctors who are actually pretty good and if you get injured after their office closes they’ve got a deal with an off property urgent care who sucked but I had zero paperwork to deal with. Also if I didn’t have a five star workers comp experience, the union would have had something to say about it - Cast Members are unionised.

Edit: not to say Disney doesn’t suck, I absolutely have horror stories and everyone who has worked for them does, but their workers comp process was actually pretty great.

The Name of the Wind

Uh oh… the third novel of that series, last I checked, is scheduled to come out sometime after the last Game of Thrones novel, which is to say it might never come out. The fandom has been waiting a long time for that book, lol.

I thought moderators could also see votes… you perv, lol.
