He’s a paid and likely compromised Russian asset, just like Orban, Trump and any number of others who are actively assisting Putin. I hope the world is getting less susceptible to Russian interference as Russia gets poorer and the Internet makes everyone more acutely aware that sex can and will be used against you by state actors. Maybe when these fools die off, the world can just focus on dealing with billionaires. It’s not much hope, but it’s all I got.
This strip features the character that presumably will become Uncle Fester, who Addams says resembled himself, plus a little more hair.
He was a pretty funny guy.
Yes but can she serve you mead?
And yet, we have to seriously look to be able to be sure. What a world.

I know you’re joking, but it made me think.
On platforms like Twitter I never felt seen. I felt like I was talking to myself for the 30 seconds I actually engaged with it (I never could stand the format or the interface really).
On Lemmy I do feel seen, because it’s so much smaller. I know people read what I write and I get way more feedback here than I’ve ever gotten since (maybe) 2010-era Reddit.
But important? Anyone who can use the Internet to make themselves feel important must have been a sociopath to begin with because as near as I can tell the Internet is a misery machine designed to make you feel like a dumbshit.
Come to think of it, that’s probably why I hate the entire concept of “influencers” and the human toilets who call themselves that.
It’s actually quite nice, conversations seem like you can get heard and people are generous with upvotes. It’s like Reddit was in 2010, but it’s been that way for a couple years (for me) now. I hope it continues.
And yet not a single word in that entire article about bots being used to post on Internet forums to engineer public opinion, which is certainly what came to my mind when I read the headline.
The closest it comes is the section where it admits that because they’re all spoofing known Big Tech scrapers, they can’t actually say how much of any particular activity is actually going on beyond some broad generalizations.
I can confirm though - my web server was positively getting hammered until I locked it down with fail2ban.
I’ve been through pretty much every stage shown here and now I’m firmly in the “I don’t know” camp. It feels like I’ll be here until I’m dead, tbh. Not that it matters (maybe).
TIL you can grow radishes in pulled pork
Man that’s a weak-ass looking sourdough loaf.

lost me at ky jelly tbh
They were called broadcasts back then.
They still are. I get 50 channels OTA and I have a DVR to record them if I need to. I stream nothing but my own media off Plex. All this costs me $0/mo.
The character is real but sadly, the poster is not.
Try getting a feather on a stick type toy and pulling it out when he does this. I’d say he wants to play, but doesn’t want to engage your actual huge ape body when it comes down to it. In any case, it’s a sign he considers you his human. He’s really a beautiful cat.
Trump took him out for a golf outing, just the two of them. Graham has been licking Trump’s asshole ever since. It doesn’t require a lot of deep thinking to imagine what was said.
Best I can do is 5TB for $189. - amazon_pawn_stars_meme.jpg
The resemblance is uncanny.
