I worry a lot of people won't learn until the leopard is eating their face, and maybe not even then.
I wonder what kind of pizza he prefers. It would be funny if chicago pizza caused a schism in the church.
Adams is a giant turd. He's terrible and I hope Zohran ousts him in the next mayoral election.
That would solve many problems, but stuff like "Who gets to visit you in the hospital?" and "who gets your personal belongings when you expire?" might need some thought. There are likely easy to solve, but still require some thought.
I think i already commented on this somewhere else, but a lot of bethesda games are like that for me. The vanilla game is kind of shit, but with a lot of mods it can kind of be hammered into something I enjoy. it's still kind of bad, but sometimes you just want to eat junk food. I wouldn't recommend someone go to McDonalds, but sometimes it's just right there and it's easy.
Need to do something for stuff like inheritance and visitation rights that's currently coupled (pun intended) to marriage.
There's also things that conservatives would never do, but would net money.
Fund the IRS to go after rich tax cheats. That brings in a lot of money without changing any laws, and it would be good publicity. A lot of people would enjoy seeing a rich guy nailed to the wall for cheating on taxes.
I think you could probably simplify a lot of government aid if we went for universal basic income instead of a bunch of programs that need to be maintained and staffed and all that.
Anyone who thought DOGE was actually going to make the government more "efficient" or save money is not well informed, and has a very limited understanding of US politics. Hopefully articles like this reach people and people learn.
Rights just exist, they are a transcendent object that can’t be defined or limited by laws.
I don't think rights exist in any meaningful way unless enforced / people agree to follow them. They're just norms in a nicer suit. There's no external referee that's going to stop the game because "your rights are being violated".
I wonder what sort of studies have been done on this. I found a few with a quick search about admitting being wrong- IT seems to correlate with humility like you would expect. Also admitting fault also sometimes makes people like you more, contrary to the belief that people will think you suck if you admit fault. Though maybe not for politicians, oddly.
I think there's a difference between someone who voted trump and realized they fucked up in a like deep , systemic, way, and someone who doesn't like this specific implemention of right wing stuff.
Like, if they regret trump but keep voting R, that's not good.
I feel like this is a deep flaw in humanity. That most people would rather continue eating literal shit than admit they were wrong.
This is more content-first where facebook/twitter/etc are user-first. I think user-first brings out worse patterns.
I think it's the same one that white woman got like $800k after calling a child a racial slur. Seems like a sketchy site
Like violence and threats in the past are okay, but never in the present?
I don't think facts and logic enter into it. It's just emotion
There are a small subset of people who legitimately just don’t understand game development fundamentals though, and they actually believe that things would just be fully interchangeable. As in, you buy a skin in Fortnite, and you can then open up Roblox and set it as your player model.
Those ones are especially not the brightest.
The people who are like "you can just take your skin from Skyrim and put it in gta5 and it'll just work!!" people really are baffling. The hubris and ignorance is so much
I'm inclined to agree. Unfortunately, a lot of moderators on lemmy and other sites have a very strong "no calls for violence" stance.
I feel like "using them responsibly" includes not using them in class
Another one of those alienating moments for me.
One: I don't use spotify. Renting music is kind of a bad deal, IMO.
Two: I don't shuffle music. I usually pick an album and play it.
