Excellent. I wonder if we'll finally hit a critical mass over there.

Was wondering how long it would take to roll something like this out. Bout time.

I somewhat agree, though I'll point out people were doing quite well at the end of Clinton and Obama's presidencies. They flipped to the other party anyway.

We've been seeing a see-saw effect for awhile, where without incumbency, the party last holding the Presidency loses. This reflects a general, vague dissatisfaction with the status quo, mostly felt at the emotional level instead of intellectually reasoned. The world is too complicated for the average person to really figure out, and they don't like that. While you can distract yourself from this in innumerable ways, or paper over it with something like religion, it'll surface when it comes time to consider new leadership.

Then, in addition to the various issues people will discuss, I think being a woman hurt Harris somewhat with latinos, where the culture prizes a more Trumpian machismo.

America isn’t a hellscape

gasp How dare you...

Her recipes are alright. Nothing super special, but she's good at knowing when she can take a shortcut and when she should do something the hard way

Positive emotions (γ = 0.128, p < 0.05) boost participation, while negative emotions (γ = −0.144, p < 0.01), particularly when linked to user behaviors, reduce it.

Well, it's nice to have hard data on trolling, I suppose.

Takes a few months. Most notable symptom of withdrawal is usually headaches, lasts a day or two. It's not a severe addiction, it's a fairly mild one as they go.

Yep. There's not really enough content in a lot of single Instance communities, but when you sign up for all of them it gets to a reasonable degree of activity.

This is one of the things I appreciate about the Fediverse. Even if we were to grow large, too, this small-town vibe can be maintained simply by using the instance federation tools. Reddit doesn't really give you that same degree of convenience.

Very simple. You just need to explain how guys like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have clearly always had all the best ideas and should be given completely free reign to do anything they want with our country, with no checks whatsoever, for however long they want. This will clearly make all of our lives much, much better in every way.

Lets not forget that it's about more than just that person. It's about the massive pile of data on the internet that will be read in the future and trawled for chatbot training.
