No it’s not. You personally might like it but if it were the consensus people would use it and this question wouldn’t be asked every week.

You’re right to be skeptical, just this particular grift isn’t as obvious as it seems.
What you’re describing just isn’t compliant with tax law in any jurisdiction I’m aware of.
Corporations are legal entities, but they do not have the same rights as people.
There’s never been any consensus that I’m aware of. All the suggestions are cringey.
We’re just users.
Define “the internet” though…
If you’re expecting “the internet” to fill your cup with joy then sure, that’s probably not going to work out.
That said, there’s plenty of good bits that make life a lot easier.
Any commentary I’ve heard is talking about Pennsylvania. It’s critically important to a win, and fracking is critically important to voters there.
That said, can’t it be both?
I’m sure both campaigns have accepted donations from loads of shady industries. Crypto is a salient example.
Money wins elections, and the race being as close as it is I don’t care where the dems are getting their money from.
I find myself saying this a lot, but if the left was going to win a convincing victory, they would have some scope for more progressive policy. There isn’t any room, and they don’t have that mandate.
I’ve never queried my parents intentions or motivations.
They weren’t great parents nor were they terrible. I think they did their best given their resources, knowledge, and societal norms.
I have however managed various mental health issues most of my adult life, and I know that most issues which make me miserable, would not make me miserable if I were not already miserable. For example, when I’m stressed and miserable I tend to get fixated on things happening at work and stress about them a lot more than is really warranted.
I can’t say I can relate to how OP feels, but I feel as though, if my dad told me I was an accident and unwanted or whatever that might change how I feel about him, but it wouldn’t really change how I feel about me.
For any person alive today, if you followed your ancestry back even just a handful of generations I’m sure there are unwanted pregnancies.
Almost half.
The sad reality is, enough Americans are happy for him to do all of these things with impunity.
What is the point of locking someone up if half the country wants them to be president?
LOL. She needs Pennsylvania. That’s it.
This is really reductive and doesn’t really consider how complex these situations can be.
What should police or first responders do when someone is at risk of harming themselves or others?
Whatever your answer, consider that the person is already having a bad day, and there are no on the spot cures for what ails them.
Hospitals in general are not nice places to be, as a patient. If you’re there for a physical illness it’s still traumatic.
You don’t go there to have a nice time, you go there to avoid the worst outcomes, like death.
I am certain that there are very, very few instances where people end up in a psych ward when there’s better places for them.
Yeah but that horror story is the same in Australia and there’s no bill.
That’s not it. It’s simply that if someone comes suicide after watching, no one can point the finger at the producers.
I think this kind of anecdotal horror story exists in every country, but of course it’s not the usual outcome.
There’s a whole chain of people involved in a process like this, and I have a hard time believing that everyone in that chain routinely locks up healthy people just to give themselves more work to do.
I think it’s far more likely that there are many people who genuinely should spend a few days in a psych ward but are unable to due to a lack of resources.
Feeling suicidal usually isn’t something that talking to a friend can resolve.
Getting a suicidal person to access the right kind of help is the right move.
That doesn’t mean you refuse to talk to a suicidal person, it means that part of supporting them as a friend is helping them get help.
That was my implication, yes. Well done.
Australia’s electoral system is far from perfect, but it seems to be less focus on the prime minister then there is on the US president.
Of course the PM still needs to be popular and electable, and we’re sliding to the right like most democracies, but I can’t imagine we could have an election like the current US cycle where no one is really talking about policy.
I think there’s a saying about this, “Elections are always lost, never won” or some such.
Sorry mate, this is just plain wrong.
People are there because they have complex medical conditions which require specialist personnel and facilities.
Yes it can be scary and expensive, but it’s the best way to manage a shit situation.
