A patchwork of things has helped me acquire and maintain a more balanced life. I’d say the largest contributor was adopting ‘radical acceptance’ as a way of life. Basically, I’m constantly, consciously accepting whatever is happening to me. It doesn’t mean I don’t try to change things but it means that I’m not always resisting everything.
Recreating that scene from Casino Royale?
Lucky for me I can’t afford a new car anyway. I’ll just keep driving my unconnected car.
Totally thought I was going to get Rick rolled
I had no idea call of duty was such a big deal. It’s not my jam so I never notice it.
I think you’re talking about the new medication approved to treat postpartum depression.
Increased risk of suicidal thoughts and actions is a very commonly listed side effect of a great deal of antidepressant medications. That’s why you’re supposed to be closely supervised when you start them and report any oddities to your doctor asap.
So it doesn’t increase suicidal tendencies across the board, only in those who are susceptible to that side effect.
If it wasn’t actually problematic it would be fascinating. It’s like watching a documentary about a cult.
I’m now realizing that I read your title wrong. my brain messed with the word ‘advertising’ and told me that was referring to the news that’s no longer being allowed on the sites. Stupid brain.
They made it so social media companies have to pay for the news. It’s Meta that’s doing the blocking.
I fancy myself fairly tech savvy. I managed to figure out this Lemmy thing, lol.
For whatever reason I’ve never really understood how an RSS thing works. I guess I’ve just never been compelled to figure it out.
My main point is that the kinds of people who were/are getting all their news from Meta probably couldn’t figure out RSS either.
Seems like a good idea though. I might have to finally dig in to it.
Sounds good but there are probably a lot of unintended consequences. For example, everyone who bought and uses a Quest VR system.
I was talking to a friend about this the other day. I really can’t understand how back to work legislation is a thing (I realize that’s not quite what happened here but it could have). What’s stopping the workers from simply continuing to strike? Will they arrest ~7200 people? What’s the point of organization if management/the government can just say “nope, you’re done, go back to work”?
Covering your bases I see
Because it’s easy. You don’t have to think for yourself if you let someone else do it.
