NO! Everyone MUST speak how I do at all times, or they’re WRONG!
There’s only one way to speak, and any linguistic deviation will be reported to the POLICE!

That’s why you should always include a banana in the picture. Then we can tell if the clock is right side up in relation to the banana.
As a 2FA supporter, I get a bit addled when the time sync isn’t working properly and my discord login won’t accept the code
This has been my experience as well. I feel this every time I have something social planned, and even moreso when depressed.
I can be totally aware of what I need to do to feel better, and still get hung up on that first damn step. The psychological struggle is real.
I agree! Hearing people being very enthused and happy about something is very comforting to me.
As others have pointed out, there are exceptions – flat earthers, religious fanatics, violent people – but even then, it’s not the hearing part that’s the problem – it’s more the problematic content itself
This was me for a while. I’ve found that when I’m depressed, taking the first step out the door can feel like an insurmountable task.
Also related, I’m actually in a conversation with a discord friend right now about how hard it is to feel connected to something as we get older. It’s still possible, but it takes a concerted effort. Add things like depression and exhaustion to the mix, and you’ve got the ingredients for a downward spiral.
There are so many people out there who I’d love to give a big mental hug. So many people hurting.
For those communities that do already have a stateless, classeless society, you mean? This happens.
The TL:DR is that you function on the agreed-upon principles of horizontality and mutual aid, but I know that doesn’t sound like a satisifying answer, and there are so many ways that might look.
China followed Maoism, which was also an authoritarian state. In such theories, they are “communist” in that they ostensibly seek to progress to a communist society. Tbh I doubt the sincerity of such a pursuit.
There are communities that could be genuinely considered communist in its true form, but people typically don’t cite them as examples of communism working since they’re not nation-states … which is the whole point lol
Maybe in a Marxist-Leninist state, but not in communism defined as a stateless classless society. There is no ruling class in such a society.
Every calzone I’ve ever eaten has had sauce. And I only buy the really high quality authentic ones from Sbarro.
All wines matter!
WANT!
I’m pretty sure I had a Trapper Keeper with something close to this exact design!
Maybe I’m just cynical, but I always read headlines in non-academic news sites like this as “some research suggests…”
There’s obviously nothing entirely conclusive, but it looks promising at least.
Don’t you think this is an unfair way of framing this? There are plenty of people who may value their relationship who this could help. It’s no different than taking anti-depressants or other meds that can help improve their quality of life.
However if George Lucas came out against gays and trans people, would you taint the entire franchise?
Yes. I would immediately lose ibr interest in Star Wars and go do something else. There’s plenty of entertainment out there that’s not made by shitty bigots.
I was a moderately engaged HP fan before I learned what a colossally awful human the author is, but her TERF ramblings also made me realize there’s quite a lot of racial and ethnic stereotypes baked into the franchise. It’s probably the fastest I’ve ever totally abandoned an interest in a series. Even if we do separate the works from the author like so many fanbois suggest, they’re still awful.
Maybe I’ll start sharing posts about some of the essays and books I read, just to start more discussion. I’m sure my admin will let me know if it’s too unhinged 😸
There’s also !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com
I wish I had more to contribute, but I always feel like I’m rambling and trying to sort things out for myself vs. ever having a distinct point. I’d like to see a more active anarchist community because most of the communities I use aren’t exactly great places to discuss anarchism without getting dunked on.
Edit: Oh wait, we’re in that community lol
This is great! Thank you so much for compiling these resources. I’ve bookmarked it for reference. Please don’t delete it!
