Social media with algorithms is a cancer. The only cure is touching grass for those people.

What are the differences between piefed and lemmy? Is one financed/supported/organised by commercial companies (or people that work for them)? Are they both grassroots and independent? Do they combat algorithms? Or something else?

For the first option, if possible, having it be manually whitelisted per post/comment or user, would also be handy.

Not directly related, but I’d also like to know where and how to donate to the Lemmy devs and instances, to support the fediverse.

PureOS might be one, though it’s maintained by an American computer corporation.

This guy should have his driving licence revoked.

The wealthiest 10% is not a goal. Why should it be?

The goal should be:

a decent house, a clean environment, excellent public transport, free education and healthcare, and so on.

I remind myself of the API drama and just straight up don’t visit Reddit.

There are good reddit subs but I don’t visit those anymore either because of the CEO being corrupt.

People taking the bus is the entire point.

It’s also healthier than those people going into a car, since more people in buses means fewer cars on the road, and correspondingly, less pollution, and correspondingly - fewer roads and parking spots are needed. Which in turn frees up space to live, enjoy nature, and life.

If you want to motivate people to walk and bicycle, you will also need to foster a good public transit infrastructure: that’ll enable walking and bicycling in other cities. After all, who will walk to another city? You walk to a bus stop, take it, then a train, and then you walk.

Way easier than spending precious minutes on searching a parking spot and being miserable in a traffic jam, stressing about other drivers, and so on.

Subsidised tramlines are a solution. With public transit lines being added, people will also flock to living near those.

You’re aware that taxes exist, right? They can be funded through those.

Besides, it’s best to stop focusing on money like it’s a holy cow … focus on community and accessibility instead: and that is where public transit shines. It makes everything accessible.

Maybe we should use a similar playbook but inversely to defeat fascism from within.

Israel is a genocidal nation.

She’s an hero, that’s she.

Not just that, a tax on ownership of a car as well.

The funds can then to go making public transit free for all, and improving its punctuality, availability, and comfort.

They are a tool for terrorism. ACAB

Late but idk if i was clear; with regard to carrying i meant during pregnancy, not after birth. Like, that’s probably gonna be extra back ache, feeling heavy, idk.

That said, lol yeah, I can see that different reaction. One group doesn’t know how painful it is because they don’t really experience it themselves (though they can sympathise), the other does.

It hurts even more when knowing that uterus transplants are already a thing. But it also elates me, as there is in fact a protocol in place for us to have these as well. I saved it in multiple ways so governments can’t delete those protocols; deleting those would hurt parents-to-be.

I hope strongly that one day, I will be able to undergo surgery for that protocol. I will bleed, I will suffer, and I will have ‘no’ heard; but I will pull through, and will search the sunshine behind the cloud. There I will find flowers growing, and water and nourish the next generation; and the world will rejoice once more!

Oof! >4.3 kg ? That’s rough, your partner’s strong. Does the extra weight make birth harder, or is it mainly with carrying, or both?

I don’t know why but despite all the pain and those descriptions, this makes me want to experience it only the more.

If you’re curious, Seeds of Destiny helped. It’s actually a pretty dang wholesome RPG, so can def recommend. NSFW obviously. Most characters are hot as well.

That said, if I could have a succesful pregnancy, no matter how risky, even if it cost my life… I would do it in a heartbeat. If I die, at least the scientific contribution will help other people in the future with becoming pregnant.

To my dear child whom I will have a high chance of never carrying, – I love you, and I love the world in its full rainbow of hues; and I would wish that I can do this. May you find this life when it calls to you.

Honestly, I’m feeling like everyday, the US is closer to a civil war 2.0. I feel like the Reps should separate already so we can label them as terrorists and traitors.

In short, his landlord killed him.
