@sharkfucker420 im fucking sick of this why do democrat elects keep insisting on sucking republican dick WE WERE SO CLOSE i am so mad right now
Lmao why did you tag the OP in your reply ?
Edit: I did not know they were coming from mastadon and I had no idea their platform worked like that. Sorry!!!
They’re posting from Mastodon so it comes through differently.
Because thats how mastodon works and they are using mastodon
@PMmeTrebuchets am i not supposed to im new to mastadon and it just kinda auto did it
Perhaps it’s the app you’re using? I would say most people (at least on Lemmy, where I’m viewing this from) don’t tag the OP unless there’s something specific they want to draw their attention to or if they’re calling them out specifically in a reply. They get notifications of all your comments so no real need to tag them. It’s a lot like reddit in that respect (again, I’m on Lemmy, using the Voyager app. Another app might be different).
Edit: apparently that’s a mastadon thing. Proceed.
wait does this site contain multiple platforms?
Am I stupid lmao I got here via Lemmy 😂
it feels like communicating between dimensional planes
I think it’s because both are in the “fediverse” so perhaps that’s part of how that works
oopsie daisy
I think it’s okay, now I know apparently that mastadon just does that. I did not realize mastadon and Lemmy interfaced like this. Carry on! Enjoy your stay!
they’re from a mastodon instance, on their end it’s formatted like a twitter thread
I genuinely did not know that was a thing on mastadon!
yeah, it’s pretty cool tbh
here’s what the thread looks like
Wow that is just basically twitter. That makes a whole lot of sense! Thank you!
I can almost guarantee you at this point that it was either the air travel lobby, or dems being worried that Trump might actually be able to whip the votes to nuke the filibuster. Leaning more towards the filibuster at this moment.
i’m convinced that it’s the filibuster too; it’s way too much of a popular tool for lobbyists to let go.
Yeah, much harder to do their little “Revolving Door Villain” Strategy when all it takes is a simple majority to do anything. Not impossible mind you, but definitely much harder.
did you catch how they improved the revolving door strategy this time around? all of the democratic senators that caved this time weren’t up for elections next year; they ended their careers by falling on their swords to protect the filibuster.
Yuuup. Couple of them were retiring, a few of them aren’t up until '28, a couple of them aren’t up until 20-fucking-30! But yeah, the more I think about it the more the only thing that make sense is that Schumer was getting worried that Thune was close to caving on the filibuster.
I think that limp dick offer Schumer made the other day was probably lobbyist money stuff. But I think that the full on caving was about protecting the filibuster.
Hello there fellow mastadonian!
Motherfuckers pulled a Nevile Chamberlain. Again!
