protests like that really just serve to raise awareness…
let’s the government know people are very pissed, and let’s other pissed citizens know they’re not alone…
and makes unaware citizens aware of the problem…
it’s a great start, but doesn’t solve anything on its own

“Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on Palestinians who had gathered to receive flour brought by UN trucks”

well that’s about the most horrible thing ive ever heard of…

posts celebrating the Hamas massacre of October 7th minutes after it began

ah, so they all knew of the rapes minutes after the attack began and were celebrating it…
and it was rape, in particular, that they were celebrating…
thanks for clarifying that

allow me to sum up interpersonal relationships between all 8 billion people in one sentence:
you can’t

but, in a nutshell… physical attraction is usually important, so is romance… usually a commitment to this person in terms of time and future plans where they become more like family (and maybe eventually actually family if you have kids)

there’s such a crazy spectrum of the ways in which people could get along and consider themselves “in a relationship”.
every rule or tendency is constantly broken, it escapes definition.
in general, it begins with attraction and flirting, or it’s cemented as a friendship…
and, poetically, i’d say it’s a relationship when they start to see themselves as an entity, and of course others will see them like that too… a sort of hive-mind develops…
sorta like when celebrity couples get a combo nickname…

house of cards

Suicide is the biggest killer of people under the age of 35 and the biggest killer of men under the age of 50

(i will probably be in that second statistic)

it’s all bots there now…

freeze peachers?

no distractions…
one metaphor i heard is, holding a program in your head is like building a house of cards, every time a phone rings or something breaks your concentration, you have to rebuild the house

forgetting a word is totally different

everyone hates it, and no, you don’t know what people are about to say all the time.

yes

i would too, if they weren’t all around me…

Trader Joes has good store brand beer…

Georgia boots are the shit…

get a mountain bike and a hyper dog… at least that’s what i did and i lost several pants sizes this last year…
(i have an australian cattle dog and they’re the best… but also very difficult if you’re not fully prepared… also the only breed that’s part dingo)

maybe i’m biased… but isn’t Conga a particularly inhospitable place to live?
it seems like the dramatic climate shift would be pretty difficult as well…

that’s pretty common on reddit

well it is a much more direct approach than usual…
