thanks for sharing this, it’s really encouraging to know that I don’t have to feel the connection immediately

come on, only one out of those four is a programming language

edit (begrudgingly): ok fine, half, but still

What do you mean by “no structure”? Afaik mongodb does not enforce a schema in a collection by default

I’m gonna buy enough baggy pants while they’re available to survive the next skinny cycle

I do get it, that’s why I live in Europe. It’s just shocking to read about such cartoonishly evil treatment of humans.

learning to casually flirt is hard! And you can’t learn it without trying and failing a few times… It was scary for me too. I agree with others that spending more time accepting and loving yourself would be beneficial. Another thing that would be beneficial to accept is chance of rejection. It’s not personal and also not a big deal if the person that expressed interest then moves on. I’ve made a mistake a few times really inflating my expectations and fueling my interest and then reacting very poorly to rejection, so that’s another thing I’ve tried to improve.

If you work on these barriers and take shots, you’ll get some practice and improve, and over time you’ll definitely have at least a few successful interactions which will be immensely helpful.

that sounds like jail

das ist ein bisschen Deutsch? Man I’m fucked I’m never gonna learn this language.

and that kind of driving affects not just brakes, but gas, engine wear, etc. not to say how horrible the whole experience of being bumped back and forth is. it’s SO simple and really reflects how careless and ignorant people choose to be about almost everything, and then that makes me really irritated

great explanation, thanks!

i use matrix lol. get lost with your condescending attitude.

there were other comments here mentioning that rcs has issues with encryption, and I don’t think handing over our private communication to isps is a step forward. It is literally a decade long step back.

just looked it up and couldn’t find a decent client for ios. There was Monal but it looks more like a draft rather than a finished application. Things don’t even have padding or margins. The snikket one I won’t even mention, you can’t expect people to use something that gives them visual discomfort.

Yeah because ISP’s are not giant corporations

you go to bed at 7pm in June?

What in the world are you talking about? I haven’t heard of any European countries where migrants have more or anywhere close to equal rights to citizens, not to say about financial, employment, or welfare access. So you’re pretty much full of so much shit. There are powerful systems in place to guarantee that a company is able to sponsor a visa only when there are NO qualified candidates available from within the country, and even then the process is extremely slow as to discourage companies from doing it, and most people being considered need to have strong education and qualifications. If by migrants you are primitive enough to only be referencing refugees or illegal migrants and the integration issues that a few countries experience from the late waves, you need to be a moron to believe that right wing politicians give a single shit about the problems that you experience. Either way, you are not in any way within a hundred miles from not being a first “class citizen in your country”. What you are is a bitter and mean dipshit who has so little humanity left in them that they are so obsessed with hurting others. So blinded by the need to hate that they have resorted to seeking psychopathic joy over other people’s misery, over “defeat” of those who are concerned about authoritarian, anti democratic parties. These parties’ main purpose is to deepen wealth inequality and corruption further and profit off of it, and further disintegrate the protections of the working class from corporate exploitation. Abandoning social democratic values fixes none of the issues that the European people are suffering from.

because?

so, what’s the story behind your apparent 10 year old coma (or some kind of hermit living)?

I think that it’s very straightforward that the movement fighting against patriarchy benefits everyone suffering under it and empowers all of its victims. I will elaborate more in a second but first, here is the fundamental definition of feminism:

Feminism is a range of socio-political movements and ideologies that aim to define and establish the political, economic, personal, and social equality of the sexes.

Gender equality, also known as sexual equality or equality of the sexes, is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making; and the state of valuing different behaviors, aspirations and needs equally, regardless of gender.

I understand your concerns about the word, and it was about women when it started, obviously, as women have needed and still need to fight for basic legal rights and autonomy, but since its inception the movement has evolved and widened a lot. It is also crazy how arguments like yours disregard all the battles that feminists fought - ones that are the reason why we all have a better society, healthier relationships and kinder childhoods. All these changes have benefited men no less than women. Men have been substantially liberated from many harsh and crushing burdens of more extreme patriarchy, such as the stress from unequal financial burden or the responsibilities and expectations disrupting bonding with children, trauma of watching mothers receive unequal treatment or live through abuse or themselves being victims, etc. Not supporting the movement that keeps fighting for that change that benefits everyone, just because women are being abused by patriarchy more, and are therefore more represented in the movement more, is shocking to me. Disregarding and diminishing all the efforts and benefits by nitpicking over the origin of the word just seems ungrateful and unfair.
