To be fair, you’re also not in the comments of an anti-pigeon post in an anti-pigeon community

Because they just keep recycling the same tired arguments

“I have no problems with capitalism” sounds pretty defend-y to me

There is someone doing it in this very thread. But yeah, Lemmy is, fortunately, quite left-wing

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:

There must be in-groups whom the law protectes but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

If you haven’t read “A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear”, I highly recommend it

Ngl, this terrifies me. Because I know exactly how dumb I was ten years ago. And then I agonize about the decisions I make today - am I going to look back in ten years and feel the regret about who I am now that I do about who I used to be?

It can be paralyzing, or I end up tending to make the safest, least risky choice, for fear of “doing it wrong” rather than what might make me happiest or serve me best

Millions of voters wanted it. They don’t realize that the circle of acceptable in-groups only gets smaller. They’re cheering at the cruelty today, but it won’t take long to catch them too.

Has Mozilla indicated any openness to taking that approach with Firefox?

From an objective outside perspective, you’re right. I need to take care of my own happiness, and my wife has a right to leave a relationship that doesn’t meet her needs. I suppose I need to just keep transitioning at my pace and keep communication with my wife open about how we’re both feeling. I just hope that we can find a way for me to be myself and still have a happy relationship. It’s just hard to imagine losing so close to me that I’ve been with for so long. If there’s anyone I would sacrifice my transition for, it’s her, but I also understand that not being true to myself would be doing her a disservice

 
 

They’re functionally the same – smoking plant material in that form factor. But I’ve noticed cigarette smokers tend to hold the cigarette facing out, in between their index and middle finger. Whereas someone smoking a joint would more typically hold it towards their palm, between their thumb and middle or index finger.

Are you an introvert but still want to make a difference?

Do you like talking to persons but hate talking to people?

Do you want to join community but hate the idea of meeting with community?

Here's a fun thing to do:

  • Print zines (little how-to and educational pamphlets).
  • Put zines in little free libraries!

Here's a place to download zines for free: https://www.sproutdistro.com/

Edit: Adding @CrimethInc as well: https://crimethinc.com/library

Here's a how-to on how to make and put together zines (cheers @susankayequinn )

https://susankayequinn.com/how-to-write-solarpunk-zine

Here's a place to find all the little free libraries in your neighborhood: https://littlefreelibrary.org/map/

Here's the FAQ from Little Free Libraries regarding donating any books or material that may be considered controversial (dive in and read their take on Banned Books! Oooooh!): https://littlefreelibrary.org/faqs/#45820

Do you have any other sources for zines that you like? Post them below.

I limit mine to messages and calls because I don’t like the distraction of tons of notifications. Curious what others do
