They also did an editorial piece on each US nominee and in trumps they said they don't think he will actually be the end of democracy. Let's see how that ages

Register your own domain and use that. Then if your email provider dies then you can take your domain elsewhere.

Very cool!! I was just thinking about how this would be nice to have. Thank you devs, and op for sharing!

Rape*

That i don't believe in god anymore. My family was very religious growing up

I disagree but my instance has downvotes disabled so i can't downvote you like you've requested :p

Ngl i got a voice telling me i should try it now

Edit: ok you weren't joking 🤣

Let me get this right. So, you know exactly who this man is and what he stands for. Yet, you elect him anyway. You know he's been "joking" about this before. Yet, you elect him anyway. He's a convicted felon. Yet, you elect him anyway.

I've lost every smidgen of respect I had for Americans. You went into this with eyes wide open. You deserve what's coming.

60% of eligible voters didn't vote. It can be debated if they are complacent or if party leadership didn't Sufficiently motivate them to vote

Of the 40% eligible voters that did vote, 50% voted for trump and 48% voted for Harris.

So depending on how you look at it, 19% of eligible voters actively didn't vote for Trump, or 20% of eligible voters actively voted for Trump.

We could also go on to say that, of those who voted for trump, there was a portion that was not informed which could partially be blamed on the media as well as party leaderships. Some of them are just in a cult mentality and while that doesn't excuse their behavior, they are actively being manipulated. And then there are a bunch of voters who genuinely just want to watch the world burn.

I'm sure we could dissect this many ways, but i can can't see how everyone deserves what's coming. For example , I didn't ask for this. I actively volunteered my time to try to prevent it. Yeah, a good chunk of Americans are idiots. But not all of us deserve what's coming. Fuck that.

• i read fairly regularly. 60-120 minutes per day
• i like reading mostly nonfiction, generally textbooks or other learning material. I'll also read whatever books my SO recommends, and whatever the current book is for a book club im in.
• I'm young enough that ill be working the rest of my life and this means I'm just trying to learn new skills and hopefully be able to retire someday
• I've gotten better over time. I set aside a dedicated block of time for distraction free reading. I make use of pomodoro timers to help stay focused.
• economics 101: time is a scarce resource. It is limited in supply and everyone wants more. Be very intentional with your time. How you spend time naturally shows what you currently value. Maybe that means you will value reading, but maybe that means you will value something else. Think about what you spend time on says about you, and if you don't like what something says then fix it.

What are your thoughts on the paradox of tolerance? At what point do you personally draw the line of not tolerating the intolerant?

Hey look, Mormon Jesus really did appear to Joseph Smith and told him to start a church and sell spots in heaven for any family that wed their daughter to him.

[My father] asked me if I would be sealed to Joseph ... [Smith] said to me, 'If you will take this step, it will ensure your eternal salvation & exaltation and that of your father's household & all of your kindred.['] This promise was so great that I willingly gave myself to purchase so glorious a reward.

• Helen mar Kimball, who was 14 at the time they married.

Sounds all very legit, daughter for heaven. Mormon Jesus is just cool like that.

I read it as "you have two" so you can have at least 2. However many past the first you want to shove up there is up to you

Where can i this fabulous roller machine? Theoretically, of course...

I don't care who you are, on a plane I'm putting on my noise canceling headphones and reading.

I wouldn't have known who she is without the comments and even then i still have never heard of her books.

From what I've seen, Trump has already been considering this anyway. This is an empty threat

The changelog shows that this section has been added sometime between Oct 30 (last version before Nov) and today. Some possibilities:

1. disinformation to discourage the movement. I find this most likely given that "Trans" did not appear anywhere in the original article until this was politicized in the US. The updates between versions inserted anti-trans language in multiple places throughout the article.
2. Or, if this is actually part of the SK movement, then I have not heard anything TERF related for the US movement. The US movement probably should rename or otherwise distinguish itself from that.

Either way, I do not think this should be a point to discredit the movement. It at minimum does not seem related to the US movement and IMO is likely some clever FUD attempt to undermine the movement before it gets traction.

Same, I had already considered self hosting matrix but this will help find a few more options

I have a hiking version tshirt so there's definitely some other versions out there. Mine isn't quite a cute as the cycling sloth though lol

It's not about the quality, it's about the speed.

That said, i generally plan ahead and rarely eat fast food. And rarely eat out in general. That shit is expensive
