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 know how to deal with it with 99% of people, but between my wife and I we have a system. When someone is talking and the other has a response they want to say to something, they hold up their finger. The speaker then wraps up their thought and gives the other person room to speak. It isn't foolproof but it helps a lot. We both have the problems you're describing otherwise / we still have those problems, but it's better than otherwise.
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.
Hear me out...
our local pizza place has something similar to the cookies and cheese. It's actually good. I have no idea why it works but it does.

Yeah, I just blocked news@lemmy.world because their responses to the whole "Photographer wins right to discriminate" thing were just unhinged.
"Yeah bro he should be able to discriminate against anyone he wants and all businesses should be able to do that" Bro what
Looks good! :) You're going to kill it - good luck!

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...
