Look I’ve never heard the term limey before but from a quick google search it seems to be an archaic derogatory North American term for the British. I’m not British so this just reinforces the yank stereotypes about being clueless about the word outside of North America that you seem to have been offended by.
It’s not about the ratio, when a post is specific to a location outside of the US, the OP includes the location 90% of the time. When yanks post stuff that is specific to the US, over half of the time they never mention that it is specific to the US. This platform would be so much more pleasant to use if yanks didn’t assume that they were the default and were just as considerate of other users as everyone else is.
China is not a founding NATO country
Easy: I live in the southern hemisphere. Excited that it’s winter today, just got through our first major storm of the season
Here in Australia, what we know as “Jelly” is what Americans call “Jello” and what they call “Jelly” is like a pulpless, seedless Jam. A PB&J is Peanut butter and grape jam in a sandwhich.
Step 1: Bomb another nation
Step 2: Call it preemptive
Step 3: Any retaliatory actions that nation takes can now be used to justify the preemptory nature of the first strike
Step 4: Keep bombing that nation because they have now “started” a war by retaliating
I didn’t. Reddits been a shithole for as long as I can remember. I came to MBin after spending a while on other fedi platforms and stumbling into it. I had an account but stopped using it years before I found the fedi.
box for f is wrong in second image. f always has an ascender and sometimes has a descender but is drawn with just a descender box
Exceptional. Better than most native writers. Only suggestion is that the ascenders and descenders (the bits that go above and below the lines in letters like l, p, b, d etc.) should be larger, aim for roughly 2/3 taller than a letter like x or o. f, and t ascend slightly less, about 1/3 taller than an x or o.
Just because yanks don’t know anything left of their centre-right democratic party doesn’t mean that liberalism is suddenly leftist…
Edit: sorry, should have read closer. You aren’t american but are accusing Americans of changing the meaning, whilst spouting the american usage of the word? It doesn’t make sense. Why accuse Americans of changing the meaning of the word liberal when you are clearly using the american meaning in the previous sentence?
It might be left by American standards where you are a leftist for supporting a center-right party like the American Democrats
Lemmy.World is a liberal outcropping in an otherwise leftist community. It is probably the last instance I would label as “authentically leftist”.
Is gravity something new or did it exist before Newton described it?
I’ve seen them sold in 3 packs as “traffic light capsicums” with a red, green and yellow one. I would have written the showerthought the other way around though as all traffic light colours (red, amber/yellow, and green) are possible capsicum colours but not all capsicum colours are represented in traffic lights (purple, orange, white etc.)
But also not because it was black friday

Still not a pom… I don’t know why you are being so aggressive but go off I guess, each to their own.
