  • The trick for anything is time and consistency. Choose two or three things from this list and plan when you will devote a few hours each week. During your "practice" time, find and use learning resources online.

    Some of these ideas are also shorter-term kind of forming things (like avoid brain rot, touch more grass), so I would also dedicate time weekly to think of/plan concrete changes in your life to accomplish them. Rotate through the list until the habit is fully formed.

  • Thank you! Any time this kind of polling shows up on Lemmy, users seem to think this is the Plan of the Democratic Leadership Cabal, rather than an incredibly premature name recognition test.

    People want to vote for people they have favorable impressions of who they also think others will vote for. Without other frontrunners, who emerge over time, it's not surprising that polled Democrats would recognize and still support the candidate that 75 million people voted for five months ago.

    If you want other candidates (I do), identify them and figure out how to help them build their profile now.

  • All the tired puns or jokes about Nazis/Hitler. "Anne Frankly, I did Nazi that coming!" "You gotta hand it to Hitler, at least he killed Hitler." Etc.

    It's the kind of thing you might chuckle at once, but so many comment threads end up piled with the same brain rot nonsense as people trip over themselves to parrot their quirky internet catchphrases.

  • An aging population base is not good for the future. Your "logic" is severely limited if you're not considering the need for stable tax revenues to provide services, or the need for sufficient caregivers to aid elderly.

    Edit: These are "forward thinking" concerns brought up by the comment you're replying to.

  • Yeah, and Biden was old. Even before his obvious deterioration, there was always a chance he wouldn't make it through the term and Kamala would have to step up. If you voted for Biden in the primaries and were NOT ready for a potential future of a Harris presidency, I don't know what you were thinking.

  • My mother is a very sweet, kind-hearted woman who taught me to lead with empathy, to always try to find common humanity with people I think are wrong. She was so upset by Trump and Vance over this that she said she hopes these "evil mother fuckers burn in hell."

    Her words and my words are meager, but please know you're not alone. I don't know what's next, but I hope we can find the path together.
