AgentGrimstone, in Do you think Jon Stewart should run for president of the United States?

I’m not opposed to it. He would be an upgrade.

I’ll take “Leading Question” for $500, Alex

Nope, and he doesn’t want to. He would not be a good president. What be would be good at is a cabinet position. Maybe even a legislator, though he’d have to figure out how to pick good staff for that job.

DragonTypeWyvern,

Is Zelenskyy a good president?

gravitas_deficiency,

Honestly? Under the circumstances, I’d say he’s an outstanding president overall.

DragonTypeWyvern, (edited )

And what would you say his primary qualifications and experience were before his election?

gravitas_deficiency,

Well, he’s not a billionaire, unlike his predecessor. I generally view rich people in politics negatively as a rule.

That said: I do think Poroshenko did as well as he could, considering he was elected after Russia invaded the Donbas in response to Ukraine revolting and throwing his super Russia-friendly predecessor (who “won” the election with a lot of Russian help, hence the revolt) out.

bradorsomething,

He’s their Lincoln.

@PP_BOY_@lemmy.world avatar

For what reason? He’s never held a public office AFAIK. His personal politics are irrelevant with that in mind

Stay in school, kids. 🤦🏼‍♂️

ringwraithfish,

Didn’t we throw that litmus test out the window with 45?

Some people did. The results were less than satisfactory in my eyes

It’s not even that niche imo, but just more music production content in general. There was an instance focused on this a few months ago, but it seems to have gone and not returned.

On Reddit, you have communities of music makers around theory, various genres, various software, synths, and deals. It’s definitely a source of inspiration I miss.

I was hoping it was “On a boat” by the lonely island, but it’s not 😞

marlowe221,

I wish we had a super active watch exchange like reddit.

solitaire, in What physical features do you find attractive on a person that would be considered unattractive by your culture's beauty standards?
@solitaire@infosec.pub avatar

For women: I like women a bit older than me, I like plus sized women, I like slightly deeper voices, I like flat women, I like a chubby uhhh “mons pubis”, I like muscle women, I like pubic hair. There are so many, often contradictory, things I like that are broadly considered imperfections. Frankly, I just like women who aren’t the typical beauty standard.

For men: I like anything that softens them, makes them seem less aggressive. Some of these are pretty common (e.g., “twinks”) but I also like chubby men, short men, long hair and so on. It’s less broad than things I’m into with women and has a definite reason rather than being a seemingly random assortment of things.

That’s just physically as well. Wealth is a turn off, being really into fitness is a turn off, overly ambitious is a turn off (particularly for work). I like cozy introverts who just want to be content with life.

girl, in What physical features do you find attractive on a person that would be considered unattractive by your culture's beauty standards?

I like body hair and big/hooked noses on all genders

DarkPhysix, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

Fevertree ginger beer. Strong ginger flavor, not overly sweet like many other ginger beers I’ve tried.

0ops,

I like cock and bull, especially with a squeeze of lime

aliceblossom,

Moscow Mule hold the Moscow. Been making these a lot lately. Not decided on what my preferred ginger beer for it is though.

@ook_the_librarian@lemmy.world avatar

Have you tried Buffalo Rock ginger ale? I’m pretty sure it was a civil war era tonic. They still sell it in parts of Mississippi. It hurts to drink, but mixes well with bourbon.

supernicepojo,

Second! I always like the strong bite of ginger. Im finding it harder and harder to get good ginger beer or even birch beer, they seem to have the tendency to be too sweet, like Reeds.

0ops,

Add some lime 👍

stoy, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

That depends on the context.

Eating pizza, nothing can ever compete with a nice glass of Trocadero, it just feels right.

At cristmas? Coca Cola? Absolutely not! Give me Zeunerts Julmust every time!

Drinking soft drink with friends and watching a movie, give me an Indian Tonic with a lemon slice, lasts long and is very tasty.

Have some dark rum (I have plenty) and want a quick drink with a good mixer, Fanta used to be great, but they have added sweeteners in addition to sugar, so they taste like crap now, so I tend to look for som itallian orange soda, it is works well.

Eating a bruger, Coca Cola is still great!

Having a quiet evening by the computer? Just stick to mineral water.

serpineslair,

A different drink for every occasion, I like it haha.

supernicepojo,

I would drink Julmust in summer if it wasnt such a social faux pas.

gregorum,

My favorite with a slice is Mandarin Jarritos. Sometimes Lima. Stewart’s Orange Creame soda is also pretty great.

I’m also a big fan of ice-cold Sprite.

stoy,

I am expecting Sprite to get the sweetener treatment as well, but for now it makes a great drink to mix it with some local distilled raspberry liquor I have, tastes like Sprite, but with a really nice aftertaste of Raspberries

hightrix, (edited ) in What movies would you make if you had an AGI that could make any kind of media on demand?

Firefly season 2
