It’s more descriptive than “Woman died after living made her delusional”.

It’s less descriptive than “Woman died after a vitamin B12 deficiency made her delusional”

I’m pretty sure it’s intentionally vague and misleading to trigger engagement around a divisive topic.

I wonder if there is a term for that.

People were struggling while Biden was in office, sure. But Americans need to learn to wake up, examine the rest of the world, and realize that post COVID economies were struggling everywhere, and Biden had actually done a pretty good job mitigating the damage.

Just because it wasn’t great, doesn’t mean he didn’t do a decent job at making it much less worse that it might have been under the policies, and damage set up by Trumps first term.

Things like tax breaks, legislated to make things harder for the working class after Dems retook office, not because of what the Dems did, but close enough for them to blame the Dems.

And it worked. It always works.

They should at least replace the fields producing corn ethanol. Saves the recurring cost of producing the energy, and reduces the emissions of both harvesting and burning.

Huge swathes of land are used just to burn the output.

It makes sense. Protocols are defined before services can be implemented on them.

What the article is say is, rather than trusting a service provider to protect your privacy, stick to using services you control, on open protocols that can communicate with external service providers.

If everyone does this, the government needs to knock on a lot more doors to force compliance. And if a node on the protocol chooses to shut down instead of complying, the service as a whole isn’t disrupted. Just the users on that node. And they can control migration to a different node.

Something something felon…

Speaking of atrophying skills…. Couldn’t make it past one paragraph to reach the critical part of the article.

I think the journalists themselves are stuck in the same place a lot of us. Working for someone they can’t support morally, because they owe money and need a paycheque, and every place they could move to will likely have the same problem.

The issue is with the owners.

Any idea that if actualized into government policy, that would lead to increased rates of harm for people, is in fact a harmful idea.

However, if the work is political, religious, or economic, and you can’t separate that, this is completely understandable on some levels

The key issue I had with this is, is sometimes the work itself is none of those things, but the artist is.

Specifically in the case for a certain magical school and the author of said work.

If the work is being commoditized to promote harmful ideas, then no matter how good the art is, it should be shunned.

If the art is good but the artist used to have problematic views or opinions, then that’s different.

I dislike that slime ball as much as the next person, but I’m sure they are moving away from the shooter, so he’s shielding her more than the other way around.

You have it backwards. Trump is the useful idiot by which the religious extremists are getting their agenda successfully implemented.

It can hurt. For many of the reasons posted already.

Incompatible sexual preferences, or libidos can really drain a relationship sometimes.

Putting off the sex until marriage can also lead to one or the other to be not completely honest, even with themselves about why they’re pushing for the marriage. And once that line is crossed, it can become hallow.

You should already know what you’re getting into before signing a (hopefully) lifetime promise with someone.

Or maybe we give up on an economic model that requires unending population growth? Since you know, we live on a finite planet?

We have to find a path to degrowth. Stop repeating talking points that imply population growth is our only path forward.

You aren’t wrong.

We’re stuck with the first past the post electoral system which is following the same route of falling into the 2 party trap. Corporations are buying those two parties and they are both further right than I think a lot of Canadians want, but the left leaning parties are a hard option to vote for, out of fear of the rightmost party getting the seat of power.

Trudeau did get elected originally on the promise of electoral reform with the NDP, but that promise was one of many he broke, and who knows how long before we can get it back as a voter issue.

Right now no one can get past the fear of economic uncertainty, which is being used by both the Liberals and Conservatives to ignore things that are much bigger in the long run, like climate change, and electoral stagnation.

From the perspective of a non-influential Canadian citizen, you need to clean house before trust can be restored.

You don’t trust a crack addict because they told you they’re clean. Trust needs to be rebuilt and it takes a lot of time and effort.

Your democracy is sick, and Trump is the symptom, not the problem.

You mean hyping up the value of his stock with lies and false promises so he can leverage that false valuation against other loans and profit even more off the value of other peoples labour?

It probably will work out just fine for him unfortunately.

Ive stuck with the guide: Some minor dynamic stetches are good. Then a good warmup. Then static stretching, or wait for them as part of the cool down.

Any time I try to stretch more than normal, I end up hurt. Maybe because I only do that when I expect to be pushed harder than normal.

See, it gets tricky. If the only reason they’ve fallen into a life of violent crime is to survive in a world that made them poor. You can say the blame falls on society for not looking after people well, before they reach that point of desperation. But you can’t really punish society in that case, People want to see someone be punished when something goes wrong, so we punish the poor person, and cement the ideas that they owe society nothing, and ensure they continue to live outside of the law once they serve their sentences.

There is a reason that the US’ incarceration rate is so ridiculously high, and its not the poor people who are at fault, they are just the who gets punished, and so people stop looking for real justice.

The GOP is fully to blame.

They sell the American public on the idea that any taxes are bad, no matter what they are meant to fund. When they are in power they cut public services, give tax breaks to corporations, and schedule tax raises to occur when they’re out of power.

When they aren’t in power they yell about taxes nonstop to make sure democrats are too scared to re-fund them, so they don’t get voted out.

Cycle after cycle, and now there’s no money to give the teachers.
