World News@lemmy.ml•‘You are all worse than each other’: anti-regime Iranians turn on TrumpEnglish
217·1 month agoYa of course, but Iranians mostly hate the regime. I’ve never seen anybody so happy about somebody’s death as my Persian friend when the leader was killed. I’m not making any excuses about US actions. Fuck them but also fuck the regime.

I love my CC, but it’s the only printer I’ve ever owned so not the most helpful opinion. My only complaint has been that it’s quite loud, but there are a lot of mods to help some.

I love listening to CBC (the Canadian NPR). It makes me feel more connected to my community, keeping up to date with local news I would not otherwise have known.
Also university and coop radio stations are great for discovering new music.
