This is all just about normalizing poor decisions, right?
Ya. I got Century Club on Reddit based mostly on AdviceAnimals posts that hit front page.
Thing is, if this is "relatable", then people are nodding along and normalizing it. It's a classic half-joke. Only not actually funny.
Call me crazy... but maybe find a way to deal with your emotions that doesn't involve compulsive spending and damaging your marriage?
Onion also got bought out a couple times. The new videos are low effort crap; nothing like the superb clips from 10-15 years ago, which is probably the best satire ever created.
Joel Fagliano is usually the NYT crossword guy. He's a savant that's been working for NYT since he was like a teenager. This seems up his alley.
To be fair, he has a tough stance on immigration, and he's a good bet to beat the liberals if you feel strongly against the open border policy the left is espousing. There's plenty of other woke nonsense that could inspire someone to oppose the libs at all costs.
I'm not a Trumper; I'm a moderate liberal that's tired of losing because of idiotic identity politics and the righteous brigading that alienates anyone who doesn't fall in lockstep.
Everyone who has some mid-level psychological issue that compromises their productivity, social life or happiness should try to improve it through a simple, healthy lifestyle (meditation, exercise, proper nutrition and sleep, and minimal screen time) before falling back on a label or pill that let's them cop out of the hard work of personal improvement.
Note: I'm not talking about people with severe, crippling disorders. Those folks should probably do these things in addition to whatever medical regimen they need.
This is a fine attitude when you have to choose between eating the shit sandwich and the shards of glass. It's not so good during the primary, when you're deciding whether the first option will be a shit sandwich.
This is also not a good thing when it's weaponized to make sure that no genuinely progressive candidate can be realistic.
Better yet, offer to help them with their time management. That way, it's a positive and friendly offer, not an overt criticism. And it jams in a little more condescension.
Uh, or just don't get one? This is a stand-alone product with an unconventional business model. It's not like they're forcing it on anyone.
I come back tired and missing home. Maybe because I travel cheap and rough.
...and yet, here we are. I left Reddit recently because of the drop in quality, and a lot of folks I know agree that it sucks even if they aren't yet tapped into the fediverse. The internet still has a lot of friction and inertia. These things take time. But the momentum has shifted. These social media cesspools can't last, even the most idiotic knuckledraggers will eventually smell the stink.
The downside is that they will find their way here. Lemmy will be bigger and less cool. Eternal September, am I right?
Harry Mack does freestyle raps about his sponsors. I think his bars about Keeps hair medication service and Nord VPN are just as entertaining as the rest of his stuff.
The woman I loved decided to give it a go. 13 years later, we're a super happy family.
PS: also, being bi and resisting the social urge to "be true to myself" and go gay, assuming the straight part was obviously bullshit.
Consider the identitarian left. The world is on fire. Nuclear holocaust looms over us. Mass extinction. Runaway AI is imminent. We really need to focus on upending the apple cart of sexual identity and relations right now.
Which is why these issues and the left identitarian fringe that pushes them to center stage are so problematic. It takes two to tango.
Well, it sounds like you have a lot of reasons to not have children. I think that's maybe the great understated tragedy of the economic fuckscape we live in: that a lot of good people can't afford to properly have a family. There's still plenty of room for happiness though, and I wish you the best of it.
Right. There's also a huge difference between taking measures that affect birth rates and actively rounding people up and culling them. Eugenics has got to be the most equivocated term in the English language. Except maybe god.
Generally, people that are less educated or with shitty values. It's not about genetics; it's about the perpetuation of bad culture. If I were to name some groups that typify this: religious fundies and under-educated rednecks.
Ya... the only problem is WHO is having all the kids.
