Almost
@sharkfucker420 im fucking sick of this why do democrat elects keep insisting on sucking republican dick WE WERE SO CLOSE i am so mad right now
The excuse we get in Australia for why Labor have to do everything exactly the same as how the Liberal Party would do it, is that if they don’t, they won’t get elected and the Liberal Party will get in instead and do all of exactly the same things, but with a different banner.
Time for some new actual centre-left/left/far-left politicians. ‘Drain the Swamp’.
I can almost guarantee you at this point that it was either the air travel lobby, or dems being worried that Trump might actually be able to whip the votes to nuke the filibuster. Leaning more towards the filibuster at this moment.
i’m convinced that it’s the filibuster too; it’s way too much of a popular tool for lobbyists to let go.
Yeah, much harder to do their little “Revolving Door Villain” Strategy when all it takes is a simple majority to do anything. Not impossible mind you, but definitely much harder.
Lmao why did you tag the OP in your reply ?
Edit: I did not know they were coming from mastadon and I had no idea their platform worked like that. Sorry!!!
They’re posting from Mastodon so it comes through differently.
Because thats how mastodon works and they are using mastodon
@PMmeTrebuchets am i not supposed to im new to mastadon and it just kinda auto did it
Perhaps it’s the app you’re using? I would say most people (at least on Lemmy, where I’m viewing this from) don’t tag the OP unless there’s something specific they want to draw their attention to or if they’re calling them out specifically in a reply. They get notifications of all your comments so no real need to tag them. It’s a lot like reddit in that respect (again, I’m on Lemmy, using the Voyager app. Another app might be different).
Edit: apparently that’s a mastadon thing. Proceed.
wait does this site contain multiple platforms?
Welcome to the magic of federation! This is how I’m seeing your posts: https://lemmy.ml/post/38812210/22162387
Basically, the Fediverse are lots of different sites that all use the same language (protocol), and some are able to talk to each other. So a Mastodon site (instance) like mastodon.world
- can talk to another Mastodon instance (like mastodon.art, or techhub.social)
- can talk to some other twitter-like platforms like Pleroma and Akkoma
- can talk to instances of some other platforms including Lemmy and Mbin (reddit-like), Pixelfed (Instagram-like), Friendica (Facebook-like) and more
- I’m not sure but I think you can like, comment and subscribe on PeerTube instances
I haven’t kept up-to-date with what’s possible and what isn’t working yet, so I might have missed something.
Am I stupid lmao I got here via Lemmy 😂
it feels like communicating between dimensional planes
I think it’s because both are in the “fediverse” so perhaps that’s part of how that works
oopsie daisy
I think it’s okay, now I know apparently that mastadon just does that. I did not realize mastadon and Lemmy interfaced like this. Carry on! Enjoy your stay!
they’re from a mastodon instance, on their end it’s formatted like a twitter thread
I genuinely did not know that was a thing on mastadon!
yeah, it’s pretty cool tbh
here’s what the thread looks like
Wow that is just basically twitter. That makes a whole lot of sense! Thank you!
Hello there fellow mastadonian!
Motherfuckers pulled a Nevile Chamberlain. Again!
