Okay but… this is cool. Doesn’t count

Agreed!

Your argument was about talking to friends to gain insight into things you know less about, not finding the six degrees of separation that connect you.

I agree with the original premise of talking to friends with a variety of backgrounds to compliment your world view, but I also holdfast that it is privileged to assume that most people will have connections with friends or even friends-of-friends that can get them trustworthy and informed information.

You scared the crap outta me when I just read the title and thought you wanted “Pay 2 Play” journalism.

I like your idea, but it relies on being connected to people who have education/expertise/authority on subject matter. Great if you have them, but can’t be a reasonable expectation for most people to have good access.

Breville makes one that uses a non-proprietary canister that can be refilled for a few dollars. We love ours.

We would love a Ted Lasso of Lemmy. Welcome aboard!

I’ve used a skin routine from The Ordinary with good results. The most basic would probably be the squalene cleanser and Natural Moisterizing factors. I’ve added the niacinamide and zinc, glycolic acid toner, and most critically for redness Azelaic acid emulsion. Makes my face soooo soft and helps with redness

We have a moth graffiti tag in my city, and I appreciate the simplicisty of it all

Can confirm, felt epic.

Why the big downvotes? Thems be some good memes

Butter. Sap is not water soluble, so soap and water won’t work. It is, however, fat-soluble, so you must rub an oil (any pet-safe/food oil will work) into the fur and incorporate the two together. Then you can use soap and water to rinse out the mixture. Voila! Works like a charm on many hydrophobic substances.

Thanks, I hate it.

This is the “pro-Palestine group are anti-semetic” strawman argument played out in real life. To be anti-genocide/Pro-Palestine does not make one anti-Semitic; it is anti-Semitic to assume all Jewish people support the Israeli State apartheid and to conflate Zionism with Judaism.

But I’m just preaching to the choir here

This is an incredibly biased article that elevates a voice equating the support of ending the Palestinian genocide with anti-semitism, which is demonstrably false.

100%. Exploitation is not limited to one continent or group of people.

Absolutely, the comic was from a piece on Imperialism from Europe in Africa, but a more comprehensive one would show the entire global south dug up.

I would argue that of the three items you listed (bananas, coffee, chocolate) that the main reason those items are “cheap” is exploitation of the workers and economies of the global south.

This is just one popular science article on the topic, and it just brushes the surface of how colonial politics have stripped the global south of resources while simultaneously building capital in the global north.

This single pane comic is the jist of it.

Nah, this is sleezy. She will catch on and it will only amplify her fears that she has to be thin to be attractive. Ask of tho so what she wants to do first?
