I recently used some glue that had that exact issue. I just needed it for a small repair and it actually worked great once I managed to get it out of the bottle (and off of my hands).

I used a large blob then clamped the wood and wiped off the excess that seeped out. If I was a real woodworker I would have sanded it afterward but it looked ok. That was about 6 months ago and the chair is still holding up

Blue?! Your paint had color in it? Look at Mr Moneybags over here whose landlord springs for the high-end paint to cover the excess mold

I saw a comic about this once (xkcd, probably?) and going by the scene in the movie, where Legolas has human sized eyes, they deduced that Middle Earth must have an exotic atmosphere

We're barreling headlong toward global famine but, sure, it's the environmentalists that want to make you eat bugs.

I suppose they are, in the sense that they want everyone to be able to eat...

It's doublespeak, a la 1984. In this case many of the words used are inversions of their usual meaning.

I'll provide some translations:

patriots -> seditionists

biblical -> cloaked in the authority of God – which here must be explicitly stated because their actions are opposed to any God of justice

open boarders -> following legal and ethical principles (remember, these people oppose ethical principles)

peacemakers -> those who use violence, or the threat of violence, to obstruct peace. See also, terrorists

besieged by dark forces of evil -> opposed by morality, ethics, or the law. The addition of "on all sides" changes the 'or' to 'and'

As a bonus, "globalists" is antisemitism. There's an old canard that justice for minorities = communism = Jewish conspiracy. This is particularly common among nazis. The convoy organizer is signaling that their group is accepting of these ideas

We've had 46 presidents and 91 total indictments. 91 ÷ 46 ≈ 2

The mean average is 2 charges.

It's a joke because all of the indictments are for Trump himself

Maybe I'm a weirdo but I actually prefer nsfw stuff on my main account too. Most of my feed on the old site was distressing news (climate change, war, politics etc) and made me feel awful in the way social media is uniquely adept at.

On Lemmy I still see that stuff but it's interspersed with boobs, which I find really lifts my mood

As someone who primarily used reddit with accessibility apps (RedReader) this would have been awesome.

Sadly, reddit doesn't find me valuable enough to even let me try to use the site in a way that is comfortable for me
