President Donald Trump on Friday again suggested he should be permitted to illegally serve a third term as president based on his baseless claim that the 2020 election, which he lost to Joe Biden, was “stolen” from him.

Trump was just a few minutes into remarks at a campaign-style rally in Corpus Christi, Texas when he began rattling off a list of purported accomplishments from the first year of his second term in the White House.

“I've been here one year. Think of it, one year, little bit more than one year. Now, time flies. Time flies,” he said.

Yogurt up, fellas

Well, for starters it was more a volonteer work for the local trans association. But I went out with a dress and thights and well I only had "Converse" for shoes but I feel it was looking good with the outfit.

I had make-up on trying to hide my leftover beard, lipstick, mascara, eye shadow and eye liner. My wife helped for the face part.

I went out like this. I was really stressed but it felt good after a while. I was conforted that I was going to a really small cinema that was running a lgbtqia+ movie and 2 other local allied association was there. I ran an information stand and we were selling small goodies with a member or the association.

I felt a bit stupid when people were asking my name and was giving my deadname since I haven't decided yet for a name.

Anyway felt good to be with other queer or allies. Also people feel I look younger than I really am ( yay! ☺️)

Most likely I will probably only dress full female when going to events with the association. I wouldn't feel safe enough otherwise.

This post was more about sharing this experience. Hope your day has been good!

CAH Gives You Your Fucking Money Back

Welp...

The health secretary thought he was offering practical advice to people who can’t afford their groceries anymore.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy is addressing the affordability crisis by asking Americans to eat more liver and less steak.

“There’s a lot of good food in grocery stores that goes to waste. Most of the cheap cuts of meat are very inexpensive. If you buy a porterhouse steak … it is gonna set you back,” the secretary said as he gave the keynote address at the “Eat Real Food” rally in Austin, Texas, on Thursday. “You can buy liver, or the cheaper cuts of steak that are very very affordable.”

Nothing’s wrong with eating liver. But to put the burden of the affordability crisis on the choices of everyday Americans rather than the administration he works for is woefully out of touch.

With none of Trump’s public rationales making any sense, the most compelling reason to start a war seems to be to distract from the growing Epstein files scandal.

Terrarium setup seems like it would be better for my executive dysfunction. Much easier to avoid algae growth (and prevent the suffering of fish).

Planning to add a pebble or leca substrate, but keep my big plants potted. I do love me some mosses, might commit to moss directly in my tank. Also planning to get better bulbs in the aquarium hood, but this African violet and strep have been needing rehab for the last few weeks/months.

Hi everyone!

So as some of you might know the original TCB was active until the summer of last year when the creator decided to shelve it.

It was a neat bot that many on the Threadiverse liked (including myself) because it really helped surface little and niche comms

It worked by calculating 2 metrics for every comm (based on the data provided by Lemmyverse.net), Daily Active Users and Subscribers gained across a 7 day average and listed the top 10 or so for each category (while excluding large comms that have no problems gaining subscribers and active users, check the sidebar for specifics on what's being excluded)

I rebuilt it in the same spirit (As best I could anyways, based on what I was able to infer by past posts, the 0g bot code was never released) and I'm having it post at !trendingcommunities@lemmy.cafe each day between 9 and 9:30 PM UTC the days trending communities (final posting time depends on processing time)

I've been watching it for some months (It was absolutely a carefully planned observation to, not me forgetting it was running until I saw it's post thankful it was posting reliably LMAO) to make sure it was doing good autonomously before announcing and it's been decent for some time now, still some things to iron out like why it's still doing decimals when it's supposed to be rounding lol, but the important stuff is settled.

So come on down and subscribe to see what's trending on the Threadiverse everyday!

I'm open to suggestions too!

I know some of you who noticed it operating have been asking about PieFed support and it's really dependent on the data of @tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net awsome Lemmyverse.net, but the PF datasets don't seem to be available on the data tab as of yet. But as far as I can tell, all the same metrics (that TCB needs anyways) are collected already, so I'll update support for it if/when it's available.

Spicy corn dish as a snack. Normally you garnish with some coconut and eat with Roti, but corn tacos work too.
