politics @lemmy.world•Jesse Watters vows to leave U.S. for Europe if AOC becomes presidentEnglish
22·5 hours agoI think the Americans who are moving to Europe are mostly more on the left side of the fence in American politics. Which is not very good for America (fewer voices of dissent to the current regime). But I can’t really blame them. It’s fucking exhausting and stressful living here right now.

40·5 hours agoIn 2025, the flow of Americans ditching the 50 states for good caused the first estimated net outward migration of the U.S. population in decades, something that likely hasn’t happened since the 1929 Great Depression.
Nearly all of the European Union’s 27 member states have seen record levels of Americans arriving to live and work there in recent years, a Wall Street Journal analysis found.
Outside of Europe, Mexico is another popular destination.
It’s a bit more than that. I have basic empathy and have been a user here for about 3 years, but I’m not on the list.
But I don’t understand the rationale for inclusion. I skimmed through the list and recognizes quite a few usernames. Most are just regular, reasonable people. Some are more left-wing firebrands, and a few are right-wing trolls. There’s no rhyme or reason from what I can see.
Me either.
Also, happy cake day!

3·1 day agoAnd this is why my kid refuses to touch school lunches, and instead takes his own stuff in from home. But I realize that’s not practical for a lot of kids. We really should be doing better for them that this terrible shit.
I’m reminded of a scene from a Jamie Oliver show from years ago where he went to America to continue his crusade against bad school lunches. He shows a bunch of elementary school kids the raw goop that’s used to make chicken nuggets. Basically all the sinew and unwanted parts of a chicken that have been blended together into a disgusting slime. Lots of "ewwww!"s from all the kids as he shows them how it’s seasoned and breaded and put into a deep fryer. Then when cooked chicken nuggets come out of the fryer the kids are all excited and happily eating them. And Oliver is left stunned and speechless, because of the complete disconnect/amnesia between the raw ingredients and how they were cooked and what the final product is.

49·3 days agoVery cool discovery. But just to temper any overly excited reactions…
Whether the atmosphere could support life remains unknown.
Also LHS 1140 b is tidally locked to its red dwarf Star, which means one side of it is constantly facing the star and the other side is always saving away from the star. So the
fatfar side will be very, very cold. While the doesn’t rule out the possibilities of life or a breathable atmosphere, it does complicate all that.


















There’s some solid irony in the counter-claims by Argentinians who are quoted in this article. “You shouldn’t cast all Argentinans as racist!” - fair enough. I know there are lots of good, tolerant people in Argentina.
But then those same people claim that all celebrities who are critical of them are ignorant about their country, and that Americans as a whole have no right to speak on racism because of their country’s history.
Generalizations cut both ways.
And then their president claims “they’re just jealous of us because we’re good at everything”. What a fucking joke. That’s buying but jingoistic deflection. But we already knew that guy is, in many ways, a completed cretin.
