Block community in the 3 dots menu. No I don’t know what that’s called. I’m using firefox if that helps. I don’t want an app thank you.

I don’t know. I’ve never heard of a political rally in Australia. Politicians are assumed liars so I don’t see any reason to go watch them speak.

I couldn’t sleep for decades until I started listening to audiobooks. It’s a bedtime story. Shut your mind off, let go of stress and just listen. It can still take a little while but now I fall asleep in minutes instead of 3 hours. It also helps me go back to sleep if I wake up from nightmares.

A stranger cuts off your arm. Choose to have a positive attitude to that. Get therapy. Decide it was really for the best after all. Enjoy your delusions. Is it a really a choice? Or is deluding yourself the only way you can live with it? I’m starting to think it all boils down to ‘suppress all negative feelings and tell yourself everything is fine’.

I googled that

Did you mean: xiuhcoatl

Is this fire serpent/ weapon of the sun an Aztec dragon?

The instance structure conveniently groups people together and labels them. Stereotyping, bias and tribalism are the natural result.

None of those things prevented rapists from entering bathrooms before.

Your Brain^tm privacy policy has been updated. Blink once to accept the new privacy policy.

I cannot understand what you are saying. Goodnight.

Why the need to stop seeing them as men? Why the need to redefine men behaving badly as boys? It seems like you can’t accept that some men behave this way so you want to pretend they’re not really men.

Grown adults behave this way all the time, and plenty of them know better, they just dont care. You are being absurd.

Bollocks. Plenty of men do these things, it doesn’t make them boys.

JFC, they don’t cease to be men because they’re assholes. Stop pretending that ‘men’ can’t do anything wrong. There is no man card and men are a diverse group of people.

What made you think people here are more intelligent than on other social media sites?

Why do you keep asking questions about who ‘men of lemmy’ would date? Are you trying to use lemmy for social research or something?

Good. If people would actually stop buying all the crap assholes are selling we might make some progress.

A suicide bomber is not an explosive human but they are an exploding human.

When i was a kid even poor people had a 3 bedroom house on a quarter acre block. I know someone who rents the balcony of a 2 bedroom flat and shares with 7 other people., all of them are migrants or international students. Oddly enough, i live in a house that was built in a backyard. A cheap, crappy new investment property made to capitalise on the housing crisis. We’ve had more than two dozen tradesmen visit in a couple of years so i wonder how that investment’s working out. This is not progress.

I wish… I have the opposite problem. I work with people from many different countries and my brain gets utterly scrambled by constantly switching between accents. Sometimes it gets so bad that I, an Australian, cannot understand a person from New Zealand. It all just registers as random noise. I’ve been in this job for 8 years and I really try but it doesn’t get any better and it’s quite embarrassing.
