  • Emotional Support From Social Media Found to Reduce Anxiety

    Jump

  • It can be both. I am certain that there isn't one explanation for it. What i describe is the feedback loop. What you describe is the initial conditions. Combined they spell disaster.

  • Emotional Support From Social Media Found to Reduce Anxiety

    Jump

  • This is why we have so much tribalism, polarization and extremism today too though. People find their information bubble, gets validated for the shit they say (i.e. emotional support), feel good about it so they post more and more extreme shit and validate (give emotional support) to others in the bubble.

    Now you have an extremist movement. Getting emotional support/validation from strangers on the internet is not always a good thing. Even if it makes you feel less anxious. Some people should feel anxious about the things they think about.

    Russians identify Poland and Lithuania as their greatest enemies

  • It is so they can fantasize about being captured and used as a sex slave by the blond hot amazonians instead of plotting the 'accidental' death of their abusive commander who stole half of their wage and threatened to send them on a suicide mission if they complain. Or something like that.

  • My wife came out as gay last night

    Jump

  • It warms my heart that you still want to be friends with her and not rip things up completely. It must have been so difficult for her to come out, given that she would risk losing you completely. I hope you find a way to move forward from this. It is as you said nobody's fault.

    My sympathies to you for having your life shaken like this...

  • Europe must stop ‘dreaming’ about defence without US, Rutte warns

    Jump

  • Yeah the Arctic and North Atlantic are important to Europe without a doubt. No name change needed, just Europe taking more initiative, leadership and becoming more central in the organization.

    Canada is a natural partner in the Arctic and North Atlantic. So is of course also the USA, but they cannot be trusted: (

  • Europe must stop ‘dreaming’ about defence without US, Rutte warns

    Jump

  • That's what I am thinking. NATO is a USA centered alliance for looking after US interests. European interest happened to coincide with theirs for a long time, but clearly the USA is growing increasingly disinterested. Europeans should probably take over most of it, make it a Europe centered alliance.

  • Europe must stop ‘dreaming’ about defence without US, Rutte warns

    Jump

  • But he said that it is pointless to try, that it is too expensive to try to defend Europe without the USA. Read the article. He ridiculed the idea of European defence without the USA.

  • EU inks 'mother of all deals' with India amid global trade turmoil

    Jump

  • How long before the EU parliament manages to sabotage this deal too?

  • Europe must stop ‘dreaming’ about defence without US, Rutte warns

    Jump

  • I guess he is afraid that European independent security will make NATO irrelevant and in turn make him irrelevant (and unemployed). Go suck Trump's dick harder, we still cannot hear the slurping from across the Atlantic. He's gone native on us.

  • Europe must stop ‘dreaming’ about defence without US, Rutte warns

    Jump

  • Is this even for real? We are not doing it just for fun, it is a necessity forced on us by Trump using the USA security leverage against us to conquer territory.

    What the fuck does he want us to do? Just roll over and do what Trump wants? On whose side is he? Because he is not on Europe's side.

  • Denominator, go Mercator

  • Ah that makes a lot more sense! 😅

  • Africa is fucking vast! I always knew that,but looking at mercator maps puts it in perspective. You could comfortably fit Russia into it, the worlds largest country by are 😳

  • Let me know if I understand correctly. You want a true to life sized map of earth? 😳

  • Do you agree?

  • I not only talk about my brain as if it isn't part of me, I talk to it as if it isn't part of me.

    Like I reprimand it and tell it what it should do. Not that it ever listens...

  • Digital liberation: EU Parliament calls for detachment from US tech giants

    Jump

  • Decoupling will be gradual and take many years, unless things escalate and the EU decides to decouple without an alternative in place.

    That would however be extremely costly and I think they want to avoid that.

    The advantage of a sudden shift is of course that change will happen faster due to necessity. But as I mentioned, at a greatly increased cost.

    The question is how long will Europe stand being humiliated by Trump every second day?

  • The curse of being functional enough to appear normal at times.

    Jump

  • I wish that it was more okay to struggle, to not always have to hide. I wish people had more understanding and knowledge about neurodiversity, that it isn't something one can "overcome", but something that you have to fight and struggle with all the time. We need breaks to just be ourselves and do and feel what we need. Just because I have learnt how to behave in public does not mean that it is easy or that I have fundamentally changed. It is just as emotionally taxing to act unnatural to oneself.

  • Donald Trump says eight European countries(Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland) face 10% tariff for opposing US control of Greenland

    Jump

  • China is in no way an appropriate strategic, economic or military partner. Its is on the other side of the planet, it has only its own best interests in mind to make itself into a regional superpower that does EXACTLY what Trump and Putin does. Its economic system is the polar opposite of Europe, open and free market vs protectionist and state-controlled market). Militarily it is growing fast but is still highly regional with limited power projection (i.e. cannot help us).

    Wanting to partner with China against US makes no sense, they are the primary financier of Russia with the deliberate intent on weakening Europe and distract us from competing with them globally. Not to mention that America isn't our enemy, but Trump and his regime specifically, the vast (75%) majority of US is against the Greenland grab.

  • Key company crash sends EU dreams of 800-metre wind power into tailspin

    Jump

  • I don't know about the rest or Europe, but in Sweden the building of wind power has grinded to a halt.

    The reason: too low electricity prices.

    Because all wind power plants produce lots of electricity at the same time when it is windy, the prices are pushed so low that no wind power producer can make a profit anymore. Thus nobody wants to expand or build new wind farms.

    Infrastructure investments and (cheap) short term power storage is needed before wind power can expand more. Low electricity prices during ideal wind conditions are currently the bottleneck for wind power.

  • China says US seizure of ships ‘serious violation’ of international law

  • As opposed to what? What alignment do you have and what fictional media do you get your world view from? TASS and Chinese state news? Give me a fucking break.
