I wish that were true. I know too many people IRL that believe that and are old enough that they should know better.

Kagi's pretty good and has a Fediverse search feature, but it's paid. I don't mind paying, but there's also no way to do private searches that way, so I'm not going to use it as my main search engine. It's been good at hunting down memes on Lemmy that I want to find again though.

 

Not OP, found on Loops

I mostly care about how much caffeine I get, which I understand to be the same regardless of how much ice there is. Generally, small or medium is 2 shots of espresso, and a large is 3 shots.

Really really. Great fun when you're young and dumb and just got a car

Believe it or not, Ojibwe also have a story about Paul Bunyan. He came to the area known as Red Lake and tried his de-forestation BS, but Nanaboozhoo - The Greatest Ojibwe who ever lived - obviously wasn't having none of that. They got into a fight that lasted 3 days, and finally our hero picked up a giant walleye and slapped the outlander silly with it. Paul got knocked on his ass in a mud puddle, so hard it left an imprint of his buttcheeks there in the wet ground...thats why the lake is shaped the way it is and why we were able to keep our forest. You'll never hear this story in a book, but that's basically how I heard it from my father when I was young - after coming home from kindergarten in bemidj (pauls favorite town, mwahaha!) and talking about him. That's the story behind the Paul/Babe & Nanaboozhoo statues in that town. This used to be a sign at the rez line, I remember the chimooks didn't like it and kept cutting it down. But the story lives on, and now you know . . . #native #nativeamerican #indigenous #nativepride #nature #art #nativeamericans #natives #love #firstnations #nativeart #nativeculture #nativebeauty #nativeamericanart #nativeamericanpride #culture #indigenouspeople #indigenousart #photography #aboriginal #navajo #handmade #indigenouspride #americanindian #nativeamericanculture #nativemade #indigenouswomen #nativeamerica #fashion #nativeamericanhistorymonth

A family member had a deposit down on a Cybertruck and was ready to buy one. They canceled their deposit and bought a different EV because of how much they despise Elon now, so it's not just sour grapes from people that couldn't/wouldn't buy one anyways.

"farleft" is a fine crossword answer. Equating "far left" with "extremely liberal" is pretty silly IMO though. A much better hint would've been "Political faction advocating for radical social change" or something like that

The clue is "Involuntarily made noise while laughing, perhaps", so sure

The MBFC bot would be useful here. Here's what they say about the group behind this site:

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/environmental-working-group-ewg/

Overall, we rate the Environmental Working Group Left Biased as a strong Pseudoscience website based on the promotion of ideas and claims that oppose scientific consensus

Thanks, I hate it. Wanted to reflexively downvote 👌
