Caw caw motherfucker
  • I know you're absolutely right but holding a grudge helped me with my depression and anxiety, cause then I didn't feel the need to be the best around a person and that everything could be my mistake. No, there is a stupid person that I dislike and most likely it's their fault!

  • The US says it is going to put its new long-range strike missiles, including hypersonic weapons, in Germany
  • Multiple cities. At least Ramstein and Spangdahlem are really big and could count as a small city. That's why I said there is still a good infrastructure even after a lot of US soldiers were sent home and bases got closed in the last few years.

  • Europeans of Lemmy, what places in Europe should foreigners avoid at all cost?
  • Then you should visit south europe. Europe is divided by the alps in a lot of things, like potato or tomato as main ingredient in meals. But also in culture itself. Everything north of the alps is kinda cold and seems unhappy/angry and stressed all the time and south of it people seem chill, happy and friendly.

  • Europeans of Lemmy, what places in Europe should foreigners avoid at all cost?
  • As others said Switzerland. It's beautiful and all but really expensive. It really took away a big part of fun when I went there. But not only that, I thought the swiss people seemed sometimes kinda "rude"or maybe a better word for it "cold" and a little annoyed if it came to tourists. I get it, it's a small county and a lot of people are visiting each year, but it still wasn't fun for me to be there and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone to go there.

    And North France near the German border like Strasbourg. The city and the region is beautiful as well, but the people are often like the cliché everybody knows and that sucks if you're a tourist. But the south of France like Marseille and the Provence is always worth a visit. The people are chill, enjoying life in the typical mediterranean way and are often friendlier (and often speak English at least in the bigger cities/tourist areas).

  • Is everything the worst?
  • As mentioned by other commentators, negative, emotional news sell the best and the news nearly perfected this method during the last couple of years. Yes, it isn't as good as pre pandemic times, but it's not the worst. For me it really helped to limit my news time to max. once a day (like in the past with the newspaper in the morning or a news show in the evening) and watching things called "good news". In Germany some TV shows have this category so I never searched it on social media or YouTube, but I bet there are some channels/pages dedicated to good news (like there is a new treatment for disease XY or here is a good step in the fight against climate change, but sometimes just news like "the big panda isn't as endangered as it was".

  • Instagram's unskippable ads test causes outrage among users
  • I guess you're right, but especially Instagram for me is something that relies on this numbness doom scrolling comes with. Every other thing has another driver. Like YT or Twitch is something for entertainment like TV, so (semi) active watching stuff, Facebook and twitter (now X) is something to get angry about, but Instagram is unsatisfying scrolling without knowing why. But why let it stop here and there, if it breaks this drooled scrolling. And if you're in need of this feeling, there is also tiktok (as of right know, until the unstoppable ads are profitable).

  • Instagram's unskippable ads test causes outrage among users
  • Wouldn't it be funny, if that would end the doom scroll cause suddenly it's a disturbance and can't be skipped like other non liked content, so it breaks the trance and leaves the user with anger instead of numbness?

  • Auf Druck der Freien Wähler: Bayerns Regierung streicht Hochwasserschutz zusammen (Artikel von 2018)
  • Kein Scherz, ich les auf z.b. Instagram immer mehr Trolle die die Meinung breit treten, dass die Ampel das Wetter kontrolliert, um uns von der Klimakrise zu überzeugen. Denn dass das Wetter immer extremer wird merken wohl immer mehr, aber das MUSS an was anderem liegen. Bin schon auf den Zeitpunkt gespannt, an dem die Trolltheorie für die ersten zur echten Überzeugung wird.

  • Dragonforce
  • Never heard that dragonforce is hated, but maybe it's first as others said cause online metal communities suck most of the time and 2. maybe cause through the fire and the flames is a "mainstream" known song through guitar hero and social media. And mainstream is often "bad" and not "trve"(a lot of metalheads are just gatekeepers with a hipster mentality).
