Yes, I can relate. Not only that but it’s more common than you think.

Broken is a good word to describe the feeling, but not the reality. If you can afford it, taking with a good psychotherapist (I would choose a psychodynamic one as opposed to something like CBT), can help you use the unbroken in yourself to heal that feeling and the perspectives that emerge from it.

It’s important because the perspectives that emerge from it create even more unpleasant feelings. It’s like a cascade.

Kiitos. That took me down an interesting rabbit hole. There’s even a song inspired by it.

You can’t separate humans from any process. The risks with nuclear are the risks of the most reliable person to eventually work at the plant. It might not be today or tomorrow, but it’s a possibility.

I can’t tell on mobile. I’ve checked under both profile and settings. I only see them choices as opposed to interface choices.

I’m doing that currently, but as a touch typist it really slows me down since most words have an accented character in my language.

I looked for keyword blocking on the web interface a while back and didn’t find anything. I still don’t see anything but maybe that’s because I’m on mobile. I’ll try desktop later and report back.

Dvorak. I find it much more comfortable and performant than QWERTY.

I’m not a fan of how accented vowels are achieved so I created a custom layout using Ukelele (macOS). That said, I haven’t installed that custom variant on my current setup and am just achieving accented characters the standard way. I should do something about that.

May these two vastly different peoples leave peacefully among each other.

People not from Thailand actually commenting that they shouldn’t be offended. It’s the confidence that gets me.

I consider the colonial parts of AUS & NZ to be just as much “the West”. We’re all the same monoculture anglosphere besides minor surface differences.

It makes sense that the bias in English speaking societies would be reflected on English speaking platforms. The posts here reflect the white western perspective. I would love to see more diversity as it does seem culturally “flat” here.

It already is worse. The number of extinctions in the last few years alone is heartbreaking.

I don’t think that activists want it to seem worse than it is. I think they’re trying to wake us up from sleepwalking collectively into disaster. The ones I listen to seem pretty measured.

Isn’t xylitol gum recommended though? Maybe I’m using the wrong term.

genocidal gravy train

This is a great summary of what's going on

The Palestine thing unravelled my image of that man completely. I don’t have a vote or anything but he does claim to be “Irish” which grates on us no end over here, where most people are anti-genocide.

I tend to feel the same but at the same time, the shadowy figures involved there would love it to see the ratio of extremist increase. An exodus of more sane members might play straight into their hands.

That said, I can’t understand why anyone without an official state role is still on that platform.

I don't think I understand either :) If capitalism is decaying, how will it continue to work as intended for capitalists?

Oh, I completely agree. Just curious whether people see this a capitalism 'decaying' vs 'working as intended'.

Is it decaying or is it in full bloom? I assumed that rampant inequality was an acceptable feature of capitalism.
