Hey, do you think your parents dropped you on purpose or by mistake? It’s almost embarrassing for me to see you not understand what’s being explained so carefully to you.

Off My Chest@lemmy.world•I'm overwhelmed with emotion at Mamdani's victoryEnglish
1·2 days agoHey, I actually voted for Mamdani! I live in Brooklyn and the support was there for him. There were people canvassing until the last day . Don’t want to give away too too much info on here, but to see him win and be able to overcome all the hate and Islamophobia is really inspiring. I’m also a first gen immigrant, and when I came here as a toddler I didn’t know any English. I’m glad he’s demonstrating that this is our city too, we will it to run, we do the dirty jobs, see the unseen, clean the filth, care for the old and sick only not to be seen as essential. Personally I’m not Muslim, but I’ve always had respect for the values of the religion. When I read The alchemist by Paulo Cuelho (the first time) it was amazing to realize that people could truly be bound to do good by religion. NYC has always been a melting pot, and it shouldn’t be run by someone who doesn’t see and appreciate that. Anyways, know that your hope and my hope are the same. Come January we’ll begin and see if there is still something worth fighting for. We really are only at the precipice.

Off My Chest@lemmy.world•Does anyone notice the hostile nature of the modern Internet, compared to the older Internet?English
1·2 days agoThis is a safe space (I think) Was it Reddit? That’s why I’m here. It’s illegal to have a different opinion on Reddit and these non federated sites. Seriously it’s insane how much hate you can get by saying something as simple as “children shouldn’t be left home alone” or something as obvious and banal as that.
The real news is that he thought he had enough fans in NY to even do a show here. I don’t think 15 Long Island moms wearing snake skin and drunk off buzzballs is a fan base.
I think we’re gon find out.

cats@lemmy.world•Some heartwarming news: the recent donations of my viewers and subscribers went to buy 30 kg of dry cat food and to fix leaking rooftop at Kotofeechka cat shelter in Kharkiv, Ukraine.

Yes, but I am here to return it. It was batted around briefly then abandoned because I stopped watching them play with it.



It’s not about homophobia, Bill Clinton was impeached because of the Monica Lewinsky stuff, and that’s not illegal either. It’s more of the fact that his fan base think he’s above reproach while victimizing people in that community. It’s more like “what now? Trump likes a dick down as well” also, he talks shite about just about everyone even his allies and refuses to acknowledge anything problematic about himself or his family. Like, it’s not about any of the stuff you’re wondering about. Were making fun of him because he’s a fascist loser who I’m sure would get on his knees were the price to his liking. That’s all.
