I can’t recall exactly, but they mentioned Trump. So, but given the grandparent poster’s “So they did something wicked?” question, I’m sure it was something like “Like Trump, amirite?!”

I hate Trump as much as they next guy, but if I come to this lemmy community, it’s precisely to escape the real life BS.

Eh. At this point, it’s either that, or living in dread that that fucker will try something even shadier (and more effective) than his little Jan 6 toy coup.

It’s a slippery slope.

What must happen is for Biden to start doing official acts.

Fuck off with u.s. politics where it doesn’t belong.

Sure, but not to the point in which it’s a constant stress.

We’ve already established that. But that method will shorten the life of the plant (and human.)

You’re right, I should have written “No, it isn’t.” Fixed.

So, no, it isn’t the response the author was looking for.

I’m no republican, but you’re making a lot of assumptions. The optimistic in me would agree with you, though.

Weird to hear of people who has never heard of BoingBoing.

Is it about people eating light?

Bacteria already release stress chemicals when their food is lacking, so…

No, it doesn’t.

No, it isn’t.

It could be. Although we don’t know how much those sounds indicate distress, and perhaps watering should happen much sooner.

Imagine if aliens abduct you and give you food only when your stomach makes the kind of noise it makes after three days without eating anything, because “that’s all they can detect.”

That idea is mentioned in the article, yes.

Edit: apologies. The OP has already pointed this out.

No harm done, brother. Infighting is precisely what they want us to do. Sorry I reached the way I reacted too.

But anyway, the whole situation sucks, and I’m very aware of that. I decided not to give that orange asshole any more attention than the strictly necessary. And in turn I’ll focus my energy on signaling strength to those who are too sad and scared for the future.

I just wished you stopped name-calling me since it makes you sound like a edgelord teen.

You’re entitled to your opinion. I understand that you’re angry. So am I. But I can’t do shit about what’s about to happen. So I prefer to remain hopeful and do whatever I can to continue supporting the communities that will be affected by what the majority of Americans legitimately decided in democracy.

Fuck. May Baphomet have mercy on our souls.

Trump will sign the bills the republicans bring him

Well shit!

Just shut the fuck up, man. Do you think I’m happy about all this? My rights have been eroded whether I like it or not. I’m just hoping that they are not eroded further. I don’t understand your stupid comment.

Unless I misunderstood you and you’re in fact a republican threatening me, in which case, doubly go fuck yourself.

not while the Rs control everything

Uh, Bernie was blocked by the democrats, not the republicans.
