World News@lemmy.world•All porn sites must 'robustly' verify UK user ages by JulyEnglish
4·1 year agoAnd honestly the only negative side effect it had on me was having unrealistic expectations the first time I actually had sex.
And that is what we should be worrying about.
I told my kid that she can watch all the porn she wants, I don’t care. Just don’t expect actual sex to be like that.

153·1 year agoIn general I think cell phones in school are a bad plan.
In America when violent terrorists are going to be emboldened by Trump? And after Uvalde? I’d tell my kid fuck the rules, you keep your cell phone on you at all times.

13·1 year agoThis is because he wants to be dictator for life and he can’t do it without war powers. The only reason I can see him agreeing to this is if he plans to keep going in Syria and maybe even start a war with Iran.
And you don’t have to take my word for it, ask his former best friend: https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-798324

70·1 year agoHe didn’t just call them out, he called them out on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Kimmel averaged 1,720,000 viewers a night last year and that doesn’t count people watching the next day, or even later, on YouTube.
Bill Burr has always been a “no fucks given” kind of guy and I respect him for that.

News@lemmy.world•Meta Is Laying the Narrative Groundwork for Trump’s Mass Deportations
35·1 year agoThen, The Intercept obtained a leaked document which provided examples of what sort of material would now be allowed on Meta. “Immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit,” “Mexican immigrants are trash!”, and “Migrants are no better than vomit,” are all examples given in the document of allowed statements on Meta. Comparisons to “filth or feces” have now been downgraded from hate speech to a less serious form of “insult,” The Intercept reported.
“ALL behavioral statements (qualified and non-qualified)” are no longer against Meta’s rules, the report said. One example was “These damn immigrants can’t be trusted, they’re all criminals.”
They are not at all exaggerating when they say this is comparable to what they did to help foment genocide in Myanmar.
