Crumbs is such a cute name, but a little small when he’s the whole loaf

World News@lemmy.world•Andrew Tate ‘raped and strangled us’ - women tell BBCEnglish
2·2 years agoThis is the pick yourself up by your bootstraps version of raising a child. You can’t seriously expect a 12 year old to have enough wisdom and initiative to do this? Why do we have this unrealistic expectation that men are super capable and just choose to be failures? It’s the same system that fails everybody else, that’s also failing them

7·2 years agoSpringtails and certain mites also love to eat fungus. I use them to keep mold under control in my terrariums

Memes@lemmy.ml•Subscribing to YT premium is also an evil actEnglish
102·2 years agoThe main issue with YouTube premium is the price, I can’t imagine that they’re making anywhere near $14 a month from showing me ads that I never click on. I’d love to see a breakdown, including how much is subsiding free users, how much is going to creators, and how much is going into the pockets of shareholders.
I think like most if not all of the people I know would easily pay $5 dollars for premium

World News@lemmy.world•She wanted a divorce so her father hacked her legs with an axe: how Pakistan fails womenEnglish
51·2 years agoI think you’re taking it too literally, the books have many statements that are contradictory. It’s about the general message. In general, the bible is very pro-children, it has passages where God literally tells people he made them in the womb himself. And funnily enough, modern highly Christian nations have these ideals, and takes them to extremes.
The Qur’an has a lot of violent punishment, which is then in a lot of cases moderated in modern Islamic countries. Saudi Arabia for example, may only cut off one hand for thievery, or none if the crime is light enough. It sets precedent and normalises these actions

World News@lemmy.world•She wanted a divorce so her father hacked her legs with an axe: how Pakistan fails womenEnglish
104·2 years agoYes, but there are multiple references to cutting off hands/feet. It’s hardly setting a good example.
We don’t try to excuse Christianity and their god awful abortion takes as local culture

325·2 years agoI don’t understand why we give Islam a pass, a lot of the religion is based on the same barbaric Christian beliefs that we’re all too happy to very rightly call out and shit on. I’d even say the Qur’an is worse than the Christian bible in many ways, given the war heavy times it was written in.
We obviously need to be careful of equating Muslim with brown, and I get that a lot of people are just racist and don’t have a more in-depth understanding of the actual religion. But the religion of Islam itself doesn’t just deserve a free pass because of that

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•There is only one type of job: Doing something someone else doesn't want to do.English
1·2 years agoI can love what I do as much as I want. But I’m going to become homeless and die if I don’t get paid.
Lots of businesses use your logic to underpay people, like in the games industry and with Zoo Keepers, but at the end of the day they need something to stop them from dying

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•*Permanently Deleted*English
3·2 years agoYou’re welcome <3 You seem like a kind person, and those people are easily taken advantage of. I don’t like seeing people lose that kindness because they forget to put themselves first.
This person you’re dealing with could have any number of good and valid excuses for their behaviour. But it’s still straight up abusive, and could equally stem from a harmful and malicious place. Unless you know for sure, the best you can do is not antagonise them.
An official report would be valid in your situation. But I wouldn’t get involved any further. Just save her messages and any evidence you have of her behaviour, on the off chance it does escalate and you or another coworker need to protect yourselves

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•*Permanently Deleted*English
8·2 years agoWhilst I agree with the above, remember to look out for number one. It’s important that you prioritise your own mental, physical, social, and financial wellbeing over that of a coworker you don’t seem to know all that well.
It’s important to give the benefit of the doubt and be charitable when you can, but not at any significant expense to yourself

World News@lemmy.ml•Labour wins majority in UK General Elections as Tories lose two-thirds of seatsEnglish
413·2 years agoI get what a lot of you guys are saying about Starmer and the Labour government not being as left wing as Corbyn. I would also like someone who would use this majority to implement some really hardcore leftist policies.
But please can we just take a step back and look at what he wants to do:
-
Massive amounts of NHS funding
-
Nationalised green energy
-
Tax private schools
-
Allow regulators to hit company executives with criminal charges
-
Nationalise the railways
-
Increase the minimum wage to a living wage
-
Free school meals
I don’t know about you, but that seems at the very least, left of center. Sure, he’s not making drastic sweeping changes right off the bat. But this country needs an era of stability, whilst we make small but consistent steps in the right direction, and that’s what Starmer will give us

It takes a lot of energy to send them back in time
