Exactly

Being stupid on TV just doesn’t pull the same audience anymore. Also, use relative measurements for these headlines! “5 million” is useless without context. That’s over 20%!

Ooh this is smart

This is not sealioning lmao

You’re falling into the trap where anyone who disagrees with you has some sort of ulterior motive or grand scheme. I don’t need to remind you why that is not a good thing.

I have none of these issues

WOOOOO YEAH BABY

Oh yeah the bruscietta effect

No, I’m painfully aware of Biden’s flaws. This is a protest against unequal media coverage.

I’m going to start downvoting these until I see the media cover Trump’s flaws as well

That number is close to meaningless. Also don’t ask others to do large amounts of research in a lemmy comment, it won’t be accurate.

This is only likely in areas where large numbers of birds are nesting or roosting.

From the first Google result I got, per “Dr. Kevin McGowan, senior course developer and instructor for The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Bird Academy”:

In the end, Kevin emphasizes that fireworks most often serve as a nuisance to birds, not a danger. “Unless you have a situation where there you have a bunch of sensitive birds in one place, then it seems unlikely that it’s going to be much of a disturbance,” he says.

Something like a sunset, a blizzard, or a thunderstorm are the more closely comparable natural equivalent. They’re special because they’re short-lived or rare.

Several other people feel this way and you’re all wrong. Is good food wasted because after you eat it it’s gone? Are vacations stupid because once it’s over nothing has materially changed? No? So why are fireworks pointless simply because they’re temporary?

In the web UI, external links have a box with an arrow, while images have a box with circles (top right of the thumbnail, grey). Clicking on the comment icon/count always takes you to the comments.

…really? Hey, I’ll take it!

Same with weary/wary
