College students that think they’re being bullied most likely attribute normal behavior to bullying

This. The specific problem my alma mater ran into was all the conservative students saying they were getting bullied, and when asked how they were bullied, the response was basically “People disagreed with me and now they don’t want to hang out with me!”

Sometimes I wonder if they’d actually been bullied, if their tune would’ve been different…

As a member of the current media boogeyman group who is facing legal bans from receiving life-saving care: Can we please get our shit together? I get it, it doesn’t feel good to vote for a candidate who does bad things. You know what’s worse? De facto electing someone who does that same shit to a worse degree, who also does literally everything else wrong. I voted Stein in 2016 and have regretted it ever since. It didn’t make anything better. I don’t even feel like I “stuck it to the Dems”. We all just suffered as a result. Please don’t make my mistake.

I don’t think you understand what rural means. There were people who had to travel 1 hr+ by car to get to the local grocery store where I came from. An ebike isn’t appropriate for places where you may need to travel 60+ miles, and/or in snow or bad conditions that might persist for weeks, and/or in ungodly hot / humid conditions that also persist for weeks. All three of those are true for decent swaths of the year in my area.

For real, I think I’ve gone through the “It sucks that never came out” -> “They’re still working on that?!” -> “It sucks that never came out” cycle like three times. The first blog post is in 2018 and it states then that it’s been in dev for several years. It’s never going to see the light of day, or if it does, it’s going to be a conceptually outdated, buggy mess that’s barely duct taped together. It’s just so incredibly hard to dev for that long across multiple engines without it turning into a disaster.

I’d love to be proven wrong, though…

Guess number buddies!

Ubuntu was always the answer I gave, but it feels like they’ve fallen out of favor with the whole snap debacle.

Yeah…this is going to be a super unpopular opinion, but there needs to be a designated distro for new users who aren’t sure what to go with. If someone asks “What distro should I-” the rest doesn’t matter. We just agree on one distro and that’s it. Once they have a reason to look for another distro, they’ll have the knowledge to find it themselves.

You have to make the first step easy.

“Truly an ancient language!” 8 years old.

C: Am I a joke to you?

I agree that kicking the can down the road isn’t going to help anything at this juncture, but it isn’t a good idea to fund the government for the next 100 years. The world changes drastically pretty much every year at this point, and funding needs to change with it. We just need actual adults as representatives so it doesn’t take the entire legislative session to do the basic upkeep of our nation.

They’re literally cockroaches. Even Wikipedia agrees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_woods_cockroach Fuck that hotel, lol

I stopped using Dr Squach when I found out their toothpaste omits Flouride for REasOnS.

Ugh, gross. Thanks for the heads up. That’s a shame.

I have something called Dr. Squatch’s Wood Barrel Bourbon. It’s a bit strong for my taste but it smells nice and controls the sweating better than Old Spice Mysterious Ocean Bits (which also smelled good).

FWIW I see you. :( Good luck with them.

Yeah, TCL was the front-runner when I was looking for a non-smart TV until I saw that. :( I ended up just going with a samsung and hoping for the best. I’ve not noticed anything annoying, but we’re probably going to switch back to a PC hooked up to the TV with all the subscription problems / price jacking lately.

Probably because it’s Chinese spyware. https://www.tomsguide.com/news/tcl-smart-tv-security-flaws

He did. It passed because we have a simple majority veto override, but the sentiment still counts.

It was true in KY. The hardest anti-trans candidate got shit on in the GOP primaries, then Cameron lost too. We still have issues with state representatives because gerrymandering but at least governor went well.

Also, Light. Who TF names their kid Light and then expects him not to have a god complex?

So…doesn’t that mean that 538 is literally just the name with nothing behind it anymore?

How many Palestinians, and Muslims in general, are allowing their judgement to be clouded by the Israel/Gaza situation to the point where they’re actively saying “Down with Biden, consequences be damned”? Some of them are openly willing to accept a Trump presidency simply because it’s not Biden.

I think the thing that really gets me about this sentiment is “Do you really think Donald Trump would’ve killed fewer Palestinians?” Killing brown people is a Republican past-time at this point. I understand being angry to the point of self-destruction if you think hurting yourself might help someone else, but this isn’t even that. It’s literally self-destructive and would make the very thing they’re mad about worse. For my sanity I have to believe this is like some tiny twitter echo chamber that the media is blowing up for clicks.
