Orban’s opposition isn’t progressive, so I don’t know who I would vote for.

Always check the back seat if you have young kids! Make it a habit every time you get out of your vehicle, but especially if you think you won’t drive again for a couple of years.

704 in 2025 vs. 492 (my calculation) in 2021.

Miprof said the growth in recorded cases was partly linked to efforts by grassroots organisations to identify and support victims, as well as improvements in the way police handle such cases.

Thanks you, comrade.

North Korea hasn’t done anything terrible. If you disagree, you just need to spend some time in a re-education camp.

Mamdani is safe!

The Hague means nothing without extradition.

Hopefully he doesn’t lose like Nicolas Maduro lost the last election.

Look, look. Look, this is what I was asked to build. Eighteen inches. Right here, it specifies eighteen inches. I was given this napkin, I mean…

So, sterilization is a subset of birth control methods.

I believe Jovovich’s character in the movie Two Moon Junction was also big into new AI memory techniques, so this works.

Now I’m curious if irreversible methods are considered “birth control.” It seems redundant to write “reversible birth control,” but maybe I’ve been using too narrow a definition. I consider IUDs to be birth control, but not vasectomies. The distinction is the level of effort required to reverse.

If completely irreversible, is that not considered sterilization?

The actual explanation is much simpler.

Came here to write “kidney stones,” and yours was the only other mention. Gallstones hurt to a similar degree, but as they move in and out, you get some relief from the pain.

It’s the National Assembly that elected him. It’s like a Parliament, but there are no Executive or Judicial branches that are independent from it.

The Assembly seats 500. A unanimous vote still shows that people are afraid to cross the leader. Like Republicans with Trump, only there are no Democrats. There are a handful of “Independents,” with the vast, vast majority being Vietnamese Communist Party members.

Everytime I put myself out on a limb with a comment, someone comes along to show I wasn’t blowing smoke.

Because it makes it harder to sell Japanese products in Spain.

Nature and nurture both have important roles in dog behavior. I’m a shitty dog owner, because I put little effort into training my dogs to behave well. I have still had dogs that were very well behaved and those that were poorly behaved. A lot of it comes from the dog itself, and then the owner can make that dog much worse or better with deliberate effort.

I think there’s more nuance. Tankies love Russia and North Korea. If you don’t like those two but you think Venezuela, Iran, and Iran’s proxies are just fine, you may not be a tankie, but you are leaning that way.

Is technocrit a tankie? If so, he or she hides enough of it to get lots of support from lemmy.world leftists. The same people who are happy to bitch about hexbear and lemmy.ml seem to find little wrong with technocrit and tropicaldingdong.

I’m not talking specifically about the US far left. I’m talking about Lemmy / Mbin / Fediverse leftists who celebrate Iran as an opponent to the US and then retcon that the government of Iran must not have legitimate internal opposition. Some of them are probably based in the US as well. I’m not clear on where technocrit is from.
