  • I think upvotes are for the quality of the content in the post and comments are for sharing your opinion.

    So, upvote when the post fits the purpose of the community, spurs discussion, and follows the rules.

    Comment to tell people what you think about the content of the post.

    If we downvoted every time there was horrible news we didn't agree with communities like news and politics would never receive a single upvote.

  • Neither. It's her brother's baby mama. That's why they butchered the title. Apparently the nephew lives with his father and stepmother.

  • Is anyone else's friends getting really distant?

    Jump

  • Same. I've always been bad at replying to people in general, and it's worse with friends that I have to hype myself up to talk to just so I can match their energy. Not their fault, of course, but as you said, you don't want to bring your friends down.

    OP, I say keep trying. Everyone needs friends and the more, the better. Just keep the judgement low and try to be understanding of where people can be at in their life journey. I promise that they will appreciate you for reaching out.

    As a side note, I've gone years without speaking to some friends and when I've dug myself out of a hole or they've crawled out of the woodwork, we've reconnected. And because we were understanding and accepting of what each other has gone through, our relationship is stronger.

  • That's a pretty cool site. I always wanted to set up my own simple, html page for a personal blog. Lots of inspiration in these pages. Crazy there's functional web pages less than 2.03KB in size.

  • Pentagon orders states’ national guards to form ‘quick reaction forces’ for ‘crowd control’

    Jump

  • I think that's a good point. Americans are heavily armed and those that are generally know how to use them, however a gun alone is not enough. You need to have the will and desire to use it.

    How many Americans do you believe will do that?

    How many Americans could even hold their own against a lightly armored squad?

    I just don't believe in the fantasy of American citizens fighting the US government with their pistols and hunting rifles. I think that's a story they sell us to make us feel like we have power.

  • I thought the same way until I read about the 2024 Venezuela presidential election.

    Maduro created an alternative government body to subvert the existing parliament and had judges on his side that said it was legal for him to do this. That allowed him to consolidate more power and further secure his position as a dictator.

    Even though everyone in Venezuela and across the world can see this blatant corruption, there's little the people can legally do about it, because the government doesn't work for them anymore. And you can see similar things happening in America. The gerrymandering of states, the use of military force on the citizenry, the threats of changing electoral laws, etc.

    It happened there, and it can definitely happen here if we let it. That's why its important we continue to protest, stand up, and make our voices heard lest we wind up like Venezuela or worse. That needs to be our cautionary tale, not our playbook.

  • Because, like it or not, the US is a major player in almost every sector. Research, media, trade, education, military, economic output, diplomacy, intelligence gathering etc., and a disruption of those sectors will have far reaching negative effects across the globe. There have already been significant negative effects and we're not even through the first year of this administration. That's why the world should care.

  • What show or movie did you come to understand as a meditation on suffering and loss?

    Jump

  • Sure, I'm not much of a critic, but I'll write down some of my impressions.

    The show centers on a group of workers who willingly "sever" themselves to work for a corporation, so fundamentally it's already based on loss. The loss of a part of yourself. Then there's the reasons that they chose to become severed in the first place, and the consequences that severing places on a person. Really, I saw it as a commentary on unhealthy coping mechanisms.

    Apologies, I know that's rather vague, but it really is a great show and I'd hate to spoil it for you. I highly recommend it.
