Here's the countries list on Psychology Today.

I would try to avoid random, potentially unqualified counselors from 3rd world countries..

I have the same approach of browsing all and blocking what I don't want as I come across it. Which in my case, happens to be mostly anime and shitposting communities.

Gotta be a troll.... This take is far too stupid to be real...

You've gotta block the communities yourself. I feel your pain, but what you're requesting isn't going to happen.

Every time I come across an anime community, I block it. But there are so many that keep popping up...

My block list is filled with so many anime, furry, and shitposting communities. It's a bit annoying and an uphill battle, but you've got to go to their communities and block them individually (but also block the anime instances).

"My subjective opinion is 100% objective."

I don't disagree with your take tho.

When my brother was getting up in arms about LGBTQ books and stuff in schools, this is how I framed it to ridicule him.

"Why do you feel threatened by gay and trans people? Why are you afraid of the LGBTQ?"

Being intolerant and everything, having it framed that way really got under his skin.

The idea that fish do not experience pain is also ludicrous... They possess a central nervous system and can very much feel pain.

I'm also opposed to catch & release fishing for fun/sport for this reason.

Imagine a hyper-advanced species suddenly and painfully yanked you up into different atmospheric conditions where you're desperately unable to breathe.

Is it perfectly acceptable just because they put you back down in your natural environment before you died, with a new painful wound and traumatic experience?

I certainly don't think so...

The entire article is 3 sentences?... So devoid of information.

You're loosely describing most of human history.

To play devils advocate, you're arguing an appeal to tradition, which is a logical fallacy.

Just because we've historically operated in a certain way, it does not mean it is morally permissible behavior.

The appeal to tradition has been used to argue in favor of slavery, racism, and a lot of other horrendous human behavior.

Being pragmatic is to take the lesser of two evils. You're taking a different option entirely. Inaction.

I will admit I fell into this during the first election cycle in which I could vote, which was 2016. I couldn't stomach voting for Hillary after the Debbie Wasserman Schultz/DNC corruption with Bernie.

I dispised trump, but refused to vote for the lesser of two evils. Never again... I'm not a big fan of Biden, but I voted for him and I will eagerly do so again.

[-] GONADS125@feddit.de 11 points 9 months ago

I voted for Biden and will in the next cycle, but this dark Brandon meme stuff will never cease to make me physically cringe....

It's some trumpian demigod worship level cringe...

I believe the name was based on a European folk tale, not actually using stones as ingredients. Here's an account of the fable.

Here is an article specifically about the Italian dish you're referring to, which also attributes its name to the fable; not actual stones as an ingredient.

Stone soup in the European sense typically just refers to a hearty soup with basic ingredients and is just reference to the fable meant to promote sharing/community. There's a lot of retelling of it, including other inedible objects other than stones.
