Bipolar Community Weekly Checkin Sept 15-22
  • Just had a meltdown in the trailer park. Yelled and broke a coffee cup, splashed coffee everywhere.

    Still sleeping on the porch, it's cold, my teeth have been hurting and I can't makeart or do anyrhing else I used to like. If I could off myself easily I probably would.

  • Harris puts housing at center of economic pitch to US voters
  • Unfortunately you're correct. Even if not everyone is funneled into the prison system, their belongings get taken away and/destroyed. Some even lose beloved pets. I imagine it's extremely demoralizing having your life broken down to zero and having to rebuild again and again.

  • Children are drinking from puddles and wading through sewage pools, as Israel pummels water systems in Gaza
  • Everyone who gives weapons to Israel (or money to buy weapons) did this. I finally got angry enough to write Biden a letter, but who knows if he actually read it or not (probably not, but I did get a reply). It didn't seem to help much. All the protests aren't helping much. What can the people do to stop the govenment's support of Israel?

    Houston's plastic waste, waiting more than a year for "advanced" recycling, piles up at a business failed 3 times by fire marshal
  • Here in the US the trash just piles up in landfills or gets shipped elsewhere. Some does get recycled, but not nearly enough.

    In other sectors, we've got things like factories polluting poor minorities, and an airforce that can't stop letting their forever chemicals leak into the environment...

    Sounds like things are generally more progressive in Sweden, although the recent trends you mentioned are worrisome. It's unfortunate some people are willing to sabotage our future for a slighly more comfortable present :/

    If Israel cannot curb the horrific abuse of Palestinian detainees in its prisons, international tribunals will
  • I heard that too, but I'm no historian. What certainly is different now is having the internet; everyone who cares is staying informed and seeing what Israel is doing to Palestinians in almost real time. Not that we can do much about it.

    I suggest writing some letters to choice politicians.… Maybe you can get past the thick, dead tissue surrounding what remains of their hearts.

  • How can I get a screw like this out?
  • Maybe try using a file to make flat sides on the outside of the head so you can use a wrench on it? (Not sure if that would be better or worse than the Dremel/slot idea... you would risk scratching the surface of the object it's on.)

  • Freed Israeli captive Noa Argamani says she was wounded by Israel, not Hamas
  • https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-815947

    Despite media reporting that she was beaten by Hamas, Argamani went to social media on Friday to say that her words had been taken out of context. She said she was not beaten and her hair was not cut.

    "I said, I had cuts all over my head and I was hurt all over my body." Argamani emphasized that her wounds came from the collapse of a building after it was bombed by the IAF.

    "As a victim of October 7, I will not allow myself to be victimized once again by the media," she said.

  • Joe Biden Appoints Hawkish Official To Lead Israel Policy At State Department
  • And let me be clear. And let me be clear. I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself, and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself

    The US will keep saying this while continuing to give Israel offensive weapons along with defensive ones.

  • Hmm, looks like an interesting film, thanks.

    The idea for this piece comes from a number of things, but mostly dementia (my grandpa had Alzheimers... it's a scary disease).

  • Is there any way to prevent side swipes from leading me back to the home screen?

    Hi,

    I can't seem to find an answer to this. I have the navigation bar configured to recieve upward swipe gestures: switch app; home screen; and back. (I don't like accidental button presses when typing.) Unfortunately, swiping upward along the bottom right also takes me to the home screen. I'm constantly doing by accident.. Is there a fix?

    Thanks~

    How to repair a Moga XP5-X+, or suggestions for another controller

    Hi,

    I tried contacting PowerA about which parts I'd need to fix joystick drift and a sticky directional button, but they would not help.

    It's a long shot, but does anyone know if the parts needed are available for purchase? I don't like making e-waste.

    Alternatively, does anyone know of a good Android controller that can be repaired easily? (e.g. Something I won't have to make custom silicone pads for or otherwise get too technical.) Or should I just get a wireless XBox controller?

    Thanks

    Discover communities I'm not subscribed to?

    Hi,

    I'm not new to Lemmy, but I've only recently gotten Voyager (+ a brand new acct) and it's pretty confusing. I'm looking for an option in the app that shows all possible communities for a given instance. Is that possible?

    Thanks~
