No stereo is a bit spartan, but definitely a move in the right direction regardless. I want one.
I overlocked my Pentium 133 to 150.
I was such a badass.
This lady has been divorced twice.
Not that I otherwise care. Do what you want with your life and relationships - life is complex and difficult at times. Not every relationship works out, sadly.
But for a twice-divorced lady to tell women to “submit to men,” it sounds like she herself has a problem keeping her trap shut and submitting to a man. The hypocrisy is so thick here you can cut it with a knife.
Rules for thee but not for me.
The wealthy people who can’t afford to own Disneyland are closer to you than they are the people who can afford to own Disneyland.
Neat, that was really helpful.
Yes, I’d simply picked my instance at random.
Isn’t Thiel gay?
What’s with these weirdos?
I don’t see the appeal of this Opus Dei shit, at all.
Basically, how can we, as humans, use our propensity for destroying entire species, but do it for the power of good, on purpose so we can eliminate ALL TICKS FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH‽
I’m relatively new to Lemmy: what instance(s) in your (collective) opinion strike that sweet spot between being a) very free speech oriented and minimally censored, but also b) not taken over by alt-right CHUDs, trashed up like 4chan, or hosting CP, gore, and all that nastiness that comes with zero moderation?
What I’m looking for, is just enough moderation to keep out the 4chan shit, but anything below that threshold of actually hurting people, pretty much goes uncensored.
I just want to use the c-word, b-word, and r-word, basically. Like, there are a lot of stories posted involving JD Vance, so…
The ironic tragedy here is that the new MAGA GOP is going to destroy and dismantle public education, citing the “failure” of public education to meet the needs of our children, even though it was a Republican policy that crippled the system in the first place.
It’s a good thing we eliminated due process and fair trials for immigrants, too. Label them all “criminals” and ship ‘em out.
Now, the next step will be easy: if we encounter someone we don’t like, immigrants today and citizens tomorrow, all we need to do is call them a “criminal” and ::poof::, they’re gone, off to El Salvador.
That pesky, inconvenient Constitution was quite an impediment, wasn’t it?
I never really saw the point of journaling, so it never “took” for me.
I write a bunch of stuff down, and then what? What do I “do” with it? Do I read it again later? No, I won’t do that. Somebody else reads it? No, it’s not intended for that.
So, I don’t journal as such.
I do organize my tasks and things to remember in a bullet journal (bujo) format, though, and that helps. But it’s less about thoughts and feelings (long-winded opinions and observations), and more about tasks and events (simple and concise one-liner statements of fact).
I do like bujo to keep my work organized.
Ok, on a side note, the idea of a “commonplace” book does sound kind of appealing, though; but I guess my life is too busy to afford me the leisure and luxury of analyzing literature, writing poetry, and sketching natural wonders, or whatever. I’ve got too much shit to do. My few fleeting moments of “free time” are spent here, complaining (wow those naughty word filters are way too strict) about MAGA, basically.
It’s early, but I have high hopes for Lapce.
I was never a fan of Electron, but I am admittedly very old school.
Republicans really do destroy everything
Good.
I remember that!!!
I dunno, man.
All I know is that open-mindedness is far less common than I’d once assumed.
And there are those people who aren’t actually interested in truth, but are instead interested in “winning,” because they see every conversation as a power struggle, with a winner and a loser (and as such, language is merely a tool to be wielded for gaining and maintaining social power, not actually finding out things for their own sake). Part of that game can include pretending to be curious and interested in truth, because of the positive image that can project for them.
When those of us who are actually curious about the world interact with one of these types, it can be quite a confusing and frustrating experience if we don’t know what we’re dealing with.
