Same. I have Mexican neighbors who don't even know what's going on. We are 41 miles from the border; ICE is harassing anyone (even at a nearby HS) browner than vanilla ice cream; people have been disappeared already. Ignorance may be bliss, but that bliss can be made to come to a dramatic end.

The country that makes it illegal to be homeless. Sorry. How can THAT be, well, legal?! It's like making it illegal to have asthma. Noone CHOOSES homelessness, FFS, anymore than anyone chooses asthma. This country makes me sick.

Hmmm. I think it is potentially very off-putting to use phrases like "you're angry at...", and "you've been taught...' It smacks of us telling them what they think and has that very quality of knowingness that these folks find such a turn off. I think we could turn to cult de programmers for advice on how to approach them

Isn't it for the Greenland's to say whether Denmark has "done a good job by the people of Greenland"? He is just the most pathetic, spineless simp ever.

Hey, I'm a newbie here from Reddit. I like your comment enough that is like to follow you, but I cannot figure out how; can you help?

I found it very interesting to learn that they believe aphantasics can form the mental image, they just can't access it. Minds are amazing!

She'll get through it. I had a similar experience, but it passed. I can't picture my daughter in my mind, but I can describe her and recognize her and, as it happens, she has aphantasia, too. Indeed, I only realized I did because of her. She said that, because she is autistic and has always known how different she is, she knew it wasn't just metaphorical when people spoke of "mind's eye" and "picturing" things. Remind her of how much aphantasia frees her from. I wouldn't trade.

I think more folks would come if they knew lemme.ee existed. I only found out it exists this morning.

[-] Zendegy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Is that lemme.ee speak, or is my confusion just because I'm old and tech-stupid?

You're a wee babby. After the next few blinks, you'll be 62 like me. Make the years count and don't work for some corporate overlord anymore t than you have to.

Seems too easy on him. I like the hanging. Or the drugs that work so badly.
