Doing well. But also terrible. Quit smoking a month ago and havent fallen off yet. Havent had any pot or alcohol in weeks either.

Thank you for being an inspiring force in the world and taking care of people around you

Im sorry things are so rough and society is so fucked

There are many people who devote their entire lives and work to anarchy

To be clear, i wasnt trying to disparage anarchists in general. The anarchists in my life are generally some of the people who have the best grasp on group dynamics, effective mobilization, and how to show up and build community.

faux-radicals in the west will denounce anything and everything, seeming to be the most radical of all but really supporting the status quo

There is so much of this around me and its exhausting. I dont even know how to counter it, not because i dont have the information but just because the pure time and energy and effort is so much.

Also re nordic countries, if i have to explain to someone one more goddamn time how the nordic model is fucked, doctors with 1000 patient caseloads, denial of trans healthcare, internment schools for sami people that shut down not all that long ago, continuing destruction of sami rights and way of life (looking at you fosen), rampant liberalism and neoliberalism, the way various parties are trying to destroy the healthcare system a la nhs in the uk, etc etc etc... Well my head might just pop. Not to mention the horrible racism. The amount of people ive heard argue that their version of the n word isnt actually the english n word and is unrelated and therefore ok to say is just so depressing.

learn to exercise some epistemic humility until they have a framework by means of which to judge things that they can actually defend.

Im not a maoist but the phrase "no investigation no right to speak" should be used way fucking more istg

lines of objection radlibs raise to such states are usually incoherent (and at best deeply hypocritical), and they will oscillate between talking like an anarchist and a neoliberal point to point based on rhetorical convenience

This is some of the people in my life and they are absolutely insufferable to have any sort of conversation with politically. "Communists are all fascists waiting to seize power" and shit like that. This one person, they say this shit and then turn around and say "i dont know what to think and believe, but i have faith in anarchy" and im just sitting there like wtf you literally just called me and people i respect fascists and then admit to not having any ideological framework??? Like, if you dont actively develop your ideology you will end up adopting the cultural default ideology, we have talked about this and they agreed with me, like, deeply unserious people using punk and anarchist aesthetics because it "looks cool".

What over ears do you use? (Also i have big ears... Would they work for big ears?) having something that is usable all day would be wonderful

The blue team literally prevented him from using tactics that americas enemies had already used against america. How do the military even call this a war game? Its more akin to a fantasy novel where the hero cant lose.

Even before that, Theodor Herzl, the founder of modern political Zionism, was termed by some as a self-hating Jew. Maybe because Herzl celebrated Christmas and even had a Christmas tree in his home.

Couldnt be because he said were made up of the waste parts of all other races, no, its because he had a christmas tree.

We know how to take back their wealth:

Ugh ikr!? Like, im slowly accepting that im probably autistic, and viewing this through that lens. And even when im the one disrupting the schedule its really upsetting and i need an hour or two to calm down, and it totally throws the rest of my day off and fucks up my mood and sometimes continues into the next day. And here it was someone else disrupting the schedule and like its ok they have needs that should be respected but also theres a part of me thats just screammmmmmiiiinnnggggg inside, cause i was looking forward to group time and really need to be around people who get me right now (and also cause ttrpgs are super fun) but also like fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck my entire evening and the only structure to my day today has been disrupteddddd and it suuuccckkkksssss.

Ahhhh i hate canceled plans its so upsetting when the schedule is disrupted ahhhhhh!!!! Even when its me disrupting the schedule its really upsetting ahhhhh!!!!

Narrator: they were

Is this what giving up looks like?

Cheese episode

Cutting on people episode

Vore episode

Could be a lot of things

I just want to put this out there: from a haaretz poll, 31% of secular israelis believe that when an enemy city is captured, all inhabitants should be killed. That number only goes up as people get more orthodox.

Thats not to say they deserve the inhumane treatment they have visited upon palestinians to be visited upon them. But it is to say that never again is an incomplete sentence. It should read never again, by any means neccessary.

I dont know what dezionification should look like. But im pretty sure that if its done by the west it will look like denazification - that is to say, a small number of elites will be blamed and killed/imprisoned, and the people on the ground committing atrocities will walk free. Their children and grandchildren will receive zionist indoctrination, and no real education about why zionism is bad will take place.

Gonna say that "growing up" isnt a thing. We are all "children" in some ways and "adults" in others. Our growth is often nonlinear and we see "regression" all the time. We dont grow in the same directions either. Ive met people who arent even legally adults who have a better handle on some things than i do, and ive met people 30 years my senior who i have out-grown in some ways. The world is a cruel and traumatizing place, and it will determine how we have to grow. Our conditions will determine what we can learn, the best we can do is show up and learn it. Who is a grown up or who acts like a grown up will always be culturally determined, and therefore no absolute metric may ever be applied. The process of growing up will never be complete, and i will always be a so-called child in one way or another.

Tldr reject tradition embrace the constant struggle of personal growth free from cultural markers.

It was one of the first things i ever learned about the IOF beyond "oh they are the israeli military" and was the first thing that began radicalizing me against them. I remember thinking to myself "How any human being do that?".

IOF soldiers have celebrated the day of her death by making pancakes with her face on it.

Ooh more lispy lemmy api bindings! Theres also a system for Common Lisp, do you know if theres one for scheme (maybe r7rs?)

I think its Betty Martin
