whom I love*

Also, shut up you piece of shit

Yep, I just love having the Internet restricted for me! /s

OP is secretly a bat who sleep upside down. Nice try but you can’t fool me 🦇👀

You put up the wrong picture, OP. That’s actually Link

God after creating the kiwi:

£100,000 over 30 years at 4.5% would be £506 a month. That plus the stipulated £25,000 deposit will get you a bungalow or terraced house near me as of about 18 months ago. Rent in my area starts at around £700 for a house outside of town or a single room in town.

So yes, £500 mortgage is possible. Rent being twice the cost of a mortgage for a similar property is fairly common. Banks and landlords being shitheads is guaranteed.

I’d live in a world without rockets in a instant if it meant the Nazis didn’t exist

Guess what, it’s actually incorrect to be friends with a Nazi. Nice shitpost though

I suspect it’s different in different countries, but things like desecrating a corpse are often illegal. I expect if you carved it up and started throwing chunks around, that would be illegal even if it’s what the deceased wanted. Probably storing the body away and not telling the authorities of the death would also be illegal

I’m just envious of her ability to pick up that book while keeping her knees straight

To be fair, it’s not the car’s fault 🐷🐷

You know you can get Lemmy on the PC, right? You don’t actually need your cellphone license to view memes. Now I’ve just got to hand over my picture ID and insert this rectal scanner…

and…

now I can post this comment :)

That’s not necessarily true. In the UK we have a yearly roadworthiness test for almost all vehicles called and MoT test. Part of this process is recording the mileage of the vehicle. There’s no need to GPS track every vehicle to get their mileage

Copy-and-paste of my answer to a different commenter below about why I said “right wing”. I’m not saying you’re wrong, but I’m happy for myself to believe the official story for 9/11 for now.

I guess this in itself is not right-wing, as far as I’m aware. It’s more that the mindset of conspiracy-theorists leans more towards the right because, in general, the conspiracy theory rabbit hole often lead to anti-Semitism. If you look at Q-Anon and pizzagate and a lot of far-right culture over the last decade, it’s all conspiracy theories within conspiracy theories. The biggest predictor of whether you will believe any given conspiracy theory is if you already believe another conspiracy theory.

You’re welcome

Un-ironically, believing in conspiracy theories is a good first step towards the alt-right. I hate to say it because it sounds so alarmist and slippery-slope-ist but I believe it to be true. If you look at QAnon and a big chunk of Trump supporters, they have the same conspiracy theory mindset. A lot of conspiracy theories have anti-Semitism at the core, and believing one conspiracy theory (especially about a subject as emotionally charged and that has caused so much harm historically) is a good way to start believing more and more conspiracy theories.

We have seen in the recent past how the alt-right uses comics and “harmless” memes to recruit and it’s a big factor as to how Trump won the first presidency.

So, in conclusion, you’re correct and it isn’t right wing. It’s the first step down that path and I automatically lumped it in with the right because of that

Hey, how about let’s not promote right wing conspiracy theories?

Grindset is dumb. Do as little as you can to survive at a level you’re comfortable with and enjoy what you have.

(Caveat: unless you enjoy the grind, in which case you do you)

Op is kindly giving us the opportunity to turn it into a shitpost for them
