That’s usually how it starts.
Amazing… I don’t like the defeatist attitude, but it’s definitely what Zuck would say.
MONSTER! IT’S GOT WHAT BABIES CRAVE!
Yeah, thank her but not by name and airline. If she just said what she said without that and Melissa saw it, I’m sure she would know it’s for her.
I’m a little rusty…

Then are toads specialized frogs? How does that work?
I was thinking the north west was looking pretty bare too. Some in Montana, but that’s all.
And what are you doing to ensure dems don’t fuck it up again if we have an election in 2028?

Issues showing Hexbear stickers/emojis and some other images?
First, I’d like to say how much I appreciate the Thunder app. It had been overall great!
Lately, just in the past couple days, I’ve been having problems with it showing some images. Most noticeable is the Hexbear stickers.
This is what it looks like on my mobile browser:
And this is how it looks in the Thunder app lately:
As you can see, it isn’t all of them, only some of them that won’t show. It seems like it is only happening in more recent posts, and seems to be mostly the hexbear stickers, but it also seems like some articles’ thumbnails and some uploaded pictures are broken too.
I was wondering if this was happening to others, if there’s a quick fix I could try, or if anyone knows the issue before I s

President-elect Donald Trump admitted in an interview with Time magazine that it will be difficult for him to reduce consumer prices, contrary to statements he made on the campaign trail this year.
Trump told Time in an hourlong interview for its “Person of the Year” feature that his presidency wouldn’t be a failure if he failed to bring the price of groceries down.
“I’d like to bring them down. It’s hard to bring things down once they’re up. You know, it’s very hard. But I think that they will,” Trump said, according to the transcript.
Trump is right that it’s very hard to achieve across-the-board price reductions. Curbing inflation is only a matter of slowing the rate of price increases — actual economy-wide price drops typically don’t happen outside of a mas

I’m a Narcoleptic, AMA 🥳
I have been narcoleptic since high school. I was only diagnosed with it 8 years ago (I am ~40), so I actually lived with it for around ~15 years undiagnosed. In that time, I graduated high school, college, and went into a career.
So, with the preliminaries out of the way, and in a effort to contribute to the AMA comm:

Fixed: Not displaying vote counts?
Hey, I love the app but I’ve never reported a bug before so I’m not sure if this is a bug or if I’m doing something wrong.
It used to show the vote counts next to the votes. Now, it only shows how I voted. Example:
