If Lemmy had coins, you’d have an award right now.
thanks, but…. aren’t you glad it doesn’t have that useless crap?

I love this useless crap
PRECIOUS!
And saved for future awards 😉. Thanks.
Nonono, you have to auto-generate it using Midjourney or Stable Diffusion, so that it’s unique and rare. Only rare coins gain value over time.
Also, don’t right-click and save because that would be considered stealing!

Good thing I’m on mobile then.

I never gave out any of that shit. Gold didn’t mean anything. It’s just artificial scarcity.
Why would you add scarcity online where it doesn’t exist? Only to make money. People will look back on all the stupid shit we put up with online just to make everything “free”.
Yes, of course. I simply wished to express my opinion of the comment in terms we are all familiar with here.
well, I appreciate that ❤️
Buying coins here would go to server costs and not spez’s paycheck.
setting up the whole coin system would create server costs. you can already donate.
It’s one
bananaicon, how much could it cost?

people can simply make a donation already, if they like. all of the extra work and resources required to run a coin and rewards system, track earning/spending and accounts, plus a secure payment system, etc… that would all cost a lot of time and resources. and that would require even more donations to pay for and maintain.
you’re right: it’s not useless, it’s worse than useless.
if you want to donate, just do that. if you want unconditional love, adopt a puppy.
They could even donate and post a screenshot of their receipt in the name of whatever user as a thank you to them.
that would be a really cool trend to start
well, it would be very geeky, but still cool
Hahaha… The funny thing is he’s right. The election was rigged, but the dumbass doesn’t realize that it was rigged in his favor and he still lost.
(And by rigged, I mean we’re still using the electoral college that over-weights typically GOP states).
Remember that time when USPS leadership ordered the removal and dismantling of mail sorting machines in an attempt to make mail-in votes late?
What a DeJoy that was
He is still in his position, incidentally.
I read this article about him from 3 days ago. Apparently he’s doing well
Louis DeJoy’s ambitious plans for America’s postal service from TheEconomist https://www.economist.com/united-states/2023/08/13/louis-dejoys-ambitious-plans-for-americas-postal-service
Unfortunately, we can’t read what his plans are thanks to the paywall.
Not that I believe it, but my favorite counter conspiracy is that the GOP tried to actually cheat the results in their favor and still somehow lost. They can’t believe it and that’s why they insist the Dems must have cheated. Remember, every accusation is a confession.
This should be logical and coherent right?
It will appear so to some people which will stir shit up, which is probably the point of this
They won’t necessarily find it to be logical and coherent, either, but it will stir up their emotions and sense of self-righteousness in just the right ways.
100% unironic message I received from a family member 😑 (changed some words to keep it anonymous, make it legible, and protect the innocent)
“Trump is gonna own you libs this time, just you wait! Our 4D chess GOD has sat on this report for 3 years. He could have released it right after the election, but you fools just don’t see the whole board like he does! This is the perfect time for it so he can watch you dummies seethe in rage and take back the country! I’m so happy to be one of the God Emperor’s Chosen! I’ve donated all I can to his fund, and you should too!”
Why wouldn’t he have just stayed in power then? Shown how great he was as a ruler/leader and then chosen his successor in 2024?
I’ve actually asked him that once. The election was obviously stolen from him, but in the end Trump CHOSE to leave to go stop the pizzagate guys (or some other shit, I stopped listening around then)
Just remember kids: QAnon believers can vote!
There’s no way this isn’t a joke… Right?? There’s no way… My brain just cannot get around this
Southwest Iowa. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy :P
Sit on this for two weeks, then reply with “so how’s that report coming?”
Two weeks? They never remember back that far. They have 5 new conspiracy theories to explain to your feeble mind by then.
This has to be satire. I’m pretty sure I threw up in my mouth a little right now.
Fuck Trump, but I genuinely don’t believe you. I’ve seen some wild bullshit come from the MAGA crowd, but this seems custom-tailored to engage this crowd in particular
I appreciate the skepticism, but remember, until very recently this was their congressman. These people chose a literal, actual, real white nationalist to represent them, so imagine how they act in private
I read stuff like this in comment sections and figures it’s just someone trolling for a reaction, but there are so many people who are actually like this. It’s so depressing to think that there are honestly people who think Trump is some great genius. If he goes to jail, they’ll still be saying “Just you watch! Any day now he’s going to spring the trap.”
Ask your supremely dumb family member why a billionaire would need donations.
This is poetry:
Trump
is gonna own you libs
this time just
you waitOur 4D chess GOD

Holy shit, this is amazing!
tihi ( thanks 👍 I hate it )
I’m shaking and crying and shitting myself. Please noo not the buff god emperor Donald trump, I don’t want to be owned!
I like that their bad grammar means that they’ll be happy to watch us take back the country.
I’m sure he’ll deliver the goods this time, right guys? Right?
Right after JFK comes back from the dead to declare him the 14th president, or whatever the fuck number they think it is.
Lmao there’s been so much craziness I’d actually forgotten about this one. Man the history books that eventually come out about the last 8 years are going to be nuts.
Honestly I think a lot of it is just going to get glossed over specifically because it’s so messy. Sure there will be loads of nonfiction books about this BS - but I doubt that kids in school will learn about Q-Anon and shit lol
This was before my time explain pls.
Qanon got it into their tiny little heads that JFK Jr was alive, or risen from the dead, and would lead them to their promised white Christian ethnostate or something.
I maintain, as my personal unfounded theory, some rot-brain heard RFK Jr was on their team and assumed it was a typo, then decided to start writing a fan fic.
Okay this is… interesting, and not in a good way.
He and the MyPillow guy are gonna show us libs up! They will PWN us.
We should all be terrified!!1!11!!! /sI mean, I think the guy is absolutely nuttier than squirrel shit and a complete fuckstain.
But just imagine the absolute shitstorm if he did actually have proof that the election was rigged against him.
Oof.
Genuine belief in fraud, ignoring that it’s obviously bs for a moment, does not give you a right to usurp power through illegal means.
I thought that was what we were talking about to begin with? It’s him, he tried to do the rigging.
So he definitely has the proof!
Hmm… seems a bit late to bring this report forward… makes me wonder if it was stored in the same place as the GOP replacement plan for Obamacare and their policy platform, which has been missing for the last 7 years.
I can’t believe he didn’t say this one would be coming out in two weeks.
If he had evidence of that we wouldn’t have had that circus with Spyder and Terpsichore the first time around
I can’t wait for him to reveal all of the republican ballot box stuffing that was happening in favor of him haha.
He really does have a habit of exposing them doesn’t he? That’s always a fun bonus when it happens, kinda like the Madison Cawthorn “Republican cocaine orgies”, it’s always fun to watch them hurt themselves in their confusion.
Own the libs by showing them we can do whatever illegal shit we want!
ps. The Cowboys blow.
Not my state, but I still respect this guy’s style. Gives no fucks.
I’m expecting something written in crayon on an IHOP placemat.
the maze not even done correctly, just a line through all the walls from start to end
No, the time for proving things already happened in the multitude of court appearances where proof was required and nothing materialized. This is just another deflection.
Still not serious about all this, huh. I have a hard time telling if he’s legitimately losing it or just playing around hoping to run out the clock. Probably a combination of both, but this just seems like the worst way to handle this situation. And yet, he keeps getting away with it.
It’s basically what he’s always done, just keep promising salvation just around the corner.
It feels like a lot of people have already forgotten that after the 2020 election, he was going on about “Releasing the Kraken” every few days, as though he had a total gamestopper piece of evidence that he was just sitting on - nothing ever appeared. Before that he let on that he was going to “Drain the swamp” aaaaaany day now, just you wait - except nothing ever happened.
Trump is all about smoke and mirrors and empty promises. And it works for him because once he says it, his followers just believe it, even if he never talks about it again. Tons of Trump supporters still to this day believe that he had unshakable evidence of fraud in the 2020 election, just like tons believe that political corruption dissapeared under Trump, only to re-appear the second Biden took office.
And now all his supporters will believe that Trump is going to prove the election was a fraud, defeat all his indictments, and become president again. And when none of that (or certainly at least not the first two) happens, they’ll just claim the game was rigged and the deep state is responsible. It’s easy to always win when your supporters aren’t willing to consider the possibility that you lost
Running out the clock in his case means running out his own clock. trying to quash the trials after (if) he goes back into office is an extremely risky affair and may not even work against the state prosecutions.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis indicted Donald Trump on Monday for working to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia, just weeks after Special Counsel Jack Smith indicted him on federal charges for his efforts to subvert the democratic process nationwide.
It all seems pretty damning, but the wily former president has an ace up his sleeve: He’s going to simply prove the election was rigged and convince Willis and Smith to drop the charges.
“A Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT on the Presidential Election Fraud which took place in Georgia is almost complete & will be presented by me at a major News Conference at 11:00 A.M. on Monday of next week in Bedminster, New Jersey,” Trump announced Tuesday morning on Truth Social.
The post came hours after Trump railed late at night against “an out of control and very corrupt” Willis.
Willis didn’t indict Trump two-and-a-half years ago because an investigation this sprawling takes a long time to actually complete.
It must take just as long to complete such a “Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT,” one that must be chock-full of new information all of the other investigative bodies who worked to uncover proof of fraud were unable to obtain.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Large, complex, and detailed, eh?
Sure, buddy. What a maroon.
