RT is straight up trying to stoke the fire with even more disinformation.

Vlad should keynote a marketing conference, because he’s still reaping the rewards from that 2015 Facebook campaign. Homie’s breaking up NATO and western democracies by bidding on shitty social media ads.

Putin really got an amazing return on investment for that 2015 Facebook campaign.

Homie banned me the other day for saying Venezuela’s Chavez-Maduro era was full of weird Trump-like authoritarian demagoguery and for referencing Chavez’s weird weekly state media talk show.

My money is on Putin trying to bait Trump into bigger conflict with Canada. Trump is a useful idiot that’s helping Putin destabilize the bonds holding NATO nations together.

Top of the morn’n, motherfucker.

Maybe not the best analogy. Gandalf took off his old bathrobe and had a lot of power there.

I feel ya, but the Trump administration expects that the global, local, and market response will be gradual. As soon as they start seeing quick responsive volatility that impacts Trump or his cronies, they TACO.

Given what’s happening with Venezuela, Greenland and the Fed Chair, I don’t know we’re not aggressively talking pulling out of US bonds and setting investment policy around that. That doesn’t have to be a gradual thing, it can happen swiftly.

People naturally started backing out of US bonds when Trump’s crazy tariffs started rolling out, and the Trump admin totally wussed out on a lot of that stuff.

Also, if the world is going to stop pegging their currencies to the dollar, they need to stop buying US bonds first. They need to diversify.

The global community has agency, and it should really start to create plans for things like getting currencies off of the US dollar.

I’m only on Lemmy for the fresh dressage content.

lol. It actually happened?

What the fuck is this timeline?

Any bets on how long it will take before someone cross references this list with the J6 pardon list, then publishes the findings?

The ads are shit, but I’m inclined to let the ads run because the entire app is built by one Ukrainian dude who basically cloned the creative suite himself.

The Hague:

For me to poop on.

Thanks. I’ll check it out.

What are some other good open alternatives to GIMP?

Having been in the design trade for 20 years, I’ve mastered countless design applications, but GIMP’s UI is something I have always struggled with.

My goto these days has been photopea when I need something fast and free… but it’s not open and it’s ad supported.

I’m accustomed to BART’s higher passenger to fentanyl-turd ratio.

Wait. NYC doesn’t have those already?

As others have said, laws vary by region. Google will tell you what’s what in your area.
