A few years back the GOP closed a bunch of polling places in blue areas. It’s flagrant voter suppression.

You skipped the part where Republicans closed polling locations in Democrat-leaning areas. The lines are intentional on election day.

I’m absolutely not joking. If you’re cooking it for less than 45 minutes, you’re not caramelizing the onions. Frequent stirring, adding water, whatever, you can get the color and texture of caramelization, but not the flavor.

I spent a couple of years making slightly disappointing meals because I was focused on the color and texture of my onions instead of the flavor. When I finally took the time to fully caramelize them again, I remembered what I had been missing.

Try it and taste the difference if you don’t believe me.

Sure, you can use non-caramelized onions. You just won’t get that sweetness.

Remember, it takes at least 45 minutes to caramelize an onion. If you’re doing it for less than 45 minutes, then you’re just cooking it.

On the one hand, I find idle browsing on Lemmy to be a lot more enjoyable than reddit. I see more stuff that I’ve never seen before, and I see less unfunny, uninteresting stuff.

On the other hand: I drew a comic and posted it to what is basically the only Lemmy comic group. I wanted to give Lemmy an honest chance, so that was the only place I shared it. I figured it’d be a nice change of pace since the group is almost entirely reposts from reddit.

My comic started to get some traction, and then the only mod in the only Lemmy comic group removed it for profanity. The profanity in question was the word “balls”.

A few days later I mentioned this story on reddit. Someone asked to see the comic, so I posted it to r/comics, and a few hours later it hit the front page of r/all.

So in my opinion, Lemmy suffers from a lot of the same problems as reddit (like petty tyrant mods), and some of those problems are exacerbated by its small size.

I was actually really disappointed at so many opportunities she passed up to lay down facts in favor of jumping on talking points

So let’s say she corrects him on a lie. Then what? Correct the next one? The one after that? The one after that? Trump had more lies than Kamala had time.

Responding to lie after lie after lie just lets him control the conversation. What she did was the best option available.

This is my second Baldur’s Gate 3 comic. I made a handful of these for reddit, and now I’m posting them here.

Here’s my previous comic:

• Wherein Orpheus Attempts to Save His Soul

This is my first ever Lemmy post. My comics did alright on reddit, so I figured I’d try them out here.
