Our PIGS brothers ❤️❤️❤️

At least they are legally employing people, in other countries in Southern Europe people work an illegal amount of time but as long as the official contract declares a lower amount of hours it’s fine (neither retirements funds nor taxes nor insurance are paid for the extra time, obviously).

Maybe try to seduce policemen being better at sexting?

Me not having any chat because I don’t have any friend

I agree in that Summit is the most feature complete and polished Lemmy client for Android.

I don’t know why, but if I figure in my head him telling that word with his voice and his Argentinian accent it sounds almost funny.

Since he is a foreigner, I assume he does not fully understand how vulgar and derogatory that term is in Italian. The result is “hilarious”, because as a native you realize he didn’t mean to use that word, like e.g. when a child uses a swear word thinking it is in the right context while it’s not.

Yet they look so beautiful together

You stole the words from my mouth.

Good they are holding a referendum to give people the opportunity to choose for themselves instead of imposing a decision from the top. But I hope they do not go out of the frying pan into the fire, anyway.

There are many politicians who are going to profit from this event, for sure.

The occasion to ban opposition parties, censor non-aligned press and furtherly restrict people’s freedom is too perfect to be missed.

You’re welcome, help yourself!

The party is called “Fratelli d’Italia” (lit. “brothers of Italy”) so no one is surprised the President’s brother-in-law is a Minister too. 😂

What is happening against journalists, writers, magistrates and anyone who tries to express criticism “in the name of public safety” is interesting because it would not be normally acceptable under normal conditions in a western democracy.

Unfortunately, the seeds of this started before the current alt-right government. It’s shocking that they are systematically being used now for political reasons but once there is a crack in the system it’s normal someone will try to exploit it to their own benefit.

Personally, I would be in favor of having polls because I frequently involve people in taking decisions.

But my use case is quite peculiar because (1) I need to know people’s opinion to take actions based on it, they would not be just informative polls (2) this group of people use Lemmy as their main interaction medium, no other platform is involved.

I’ve resorted to strawpoll in the past or in having comments with multiple options and relying on the most upvoted comment but these solutions have downsides.

We don’t need any external help, we can sabotage ourselves on our own!

I would like FIGS more than PIGS.

Me too, and Lemmy inspired me to unsub! 😉

Oh no, and the “return to office” policies?/s

Italy is doing something similar but deporting them to Albania, source here. Being in the EU, the whole thing is even more infuriating (to me).

Forgive me father for I have sinned.

There’s more: with European funds!

The measure forms part of a package of initiatives approved by Meloni’s cabinet that will be funded by the EU’s post-pandemic recovery fund…
