MintyFresh@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Uncircumcised penis owners, did you ever wish you were circumcised?112·3 days agoMy buddy had to get circumcised as an adult. Some weird infection. He’s not like a gross unhygienic dude, it just kinda happened. I guess it was super painful and he was laid out for like a week. I know that’s not the best argument for pro circumcision, but ya, there are reasons. I personally am uncut, and have zero intention of getting cut, nor would I cut any child of mine.

It’s just so bloat ridden it’s 5 clicks with a shitty remote to switch inputs. I want a tv with no UI, just a power button, volume, channel, and input. Maybe a menu for color settings. The menus on mine are built to push me to one app or another. Every time I turn it on I have to navigate pop ups and prompts trying to get me to connect it and spend money on one app or another.

Not that I’d put this past the current powers that be. But without more information we’ll probably never get it’s hard to say.
MintyFresh@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What seems to be difficult to many other people but isn't for you?3·10 days agoI’m a professional driver. Used to be a trucker, have spent a lifetime working shitty blue collar industrial jobs. I can back any trailer, with any vehicle, into any space. I’m a ninja on a forklift, a crane, a loadall, whatever. I’ve spent thousands of hours just parking stuff. I can’t parallel park. I mean I can, just not quickly, gracefully, or taking all the gods names in vain.

MintyFresh@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Why a professor of fascism left the US: ‘The lesson of 1933 is – you get out’0·4 months agoThat’s a shit lesson to take from 33. My takeaway is don’t let the brown shirts win. I’m not running from my country with my tail between my legs.
Fascists can fuck off, in fact
707 millions just assembled to say just that.Edit: I didn’t think staying in my country of birth and fighting for freedom and decency would be such a hot button issue.
To all of you who felt the need to be condescending I’d just say tighten up and show some backbone. Real disappointing. So you may be shot and sent to a gulag. You wouldn’t be the first, probably not the last. Try not to let fear and righteousness dictate your feelings.
