democratic rules based order would most certainly be liberal. if only because it will require a new liberty for everyone to be equally able to participate in it

it’s best to start it out with a hypothetical so that it gives them an out

Kris Kristofferson is an American hero. His care and support for controversial women artists is beyond the pale. He’ll never be recognized for his impact even when he’s remembered with high esteem
before it became legal in Wasington State, people would plant seeds in the Seattle Police Station green space. One plant got about this big and the newspaper had a big laugh about the fact that the Seattle police couldn’t even find it growing in their front yard

Superbowl@lemmy.world•The last northern spotted owl in B.C. is likely gone. Is it too late to bring them back?English
8·3 days agoits sad that those owls can’t adapt to new trees
their best hope is that they can weather the storm in the Olympic forest of the Washington Peninsula and then repopulate when they have to expand out

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•PC Gamer: "I'm brave enough to say it: Linux is good now, and if you want to feel like you actually own your PC, make 2026 the year of Linux on (your) desktop"English
23·5 days agoi think this bravery is worthy of a marble carving. 12 stories tall, of you pointing at the ocean
it do be like this sometimes
it’s also stressful and funny when somebody is trying to tell you their computer problems and it seems like it’s really bad. then you go and look around and you can’t find anything wrong. and their all

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your kinda-unimpressive 'claim to fame'?English
24·7 days agoup until Counterstrike went to 1.0, I was in the top 100 players off and on. My TFC clan hosted the first dedicated playable servers when it was released. The ladders would kill you if you jumped off them lol in the initial release.
I ran the second most popular counterstrike skins page for a few years
One week I decided to see how high I could rank in the gamespy/wql leaderboards and I peaked at 16 for the week. I got into the top 10 for the day a couple times. I remember facing most of the best players of that era. or at least the people that played on gamespy or world quake leaderboards reporting servers.
But I stopped playing and then the 1.0 version came out and my days off really took my edge off. I was never able to really get into it again. I’ve never played the latest version of it.
one time while I dropped acid and played it, I was so in the zone I had a 40+ killing streak. I never cheated but was banned from a lot of servers for dominating so much.
as a joke my friends and I would all play as teen pop stars or we’d pick silly names like mine was often “little yellow flower” lol because it would piss off the hardcore kids when we’d post screenshots of them getting crushed

Greek salad is like polar opposite to cookie and m&m. I can’t even imagine how bad of a juxtapositioning it requires to even take it seriously as something to eat
but more importantly how did this survive as a Wikipedia entry!?
