I think each woman has her own reasons (some people actually like traditions) but I have the impression that, globally, women are not the same as what we see online. I think today the taking of a surname does not indicate ownership or property, at least to most modern women (and men).
I don’t think any woman thinks like that anymore, or perhaps not many, so the motivations would then also be obviously different.
Yes definitely. Anything that spreads knowledge should be hugely supported.
Be very suspicious of anyone advocating for less support of knowledge sharing.
I’m really enjoying Bluesky strangely enough, not normally my thing.
Get offline, and simplify. Start doing things that are good for you. There is yet joy to come.
Do it. Promises from super powers are worthless. Only power itself matters. And all the other countries are aware of it too now.
Yeah. Most people are probably experiencing the shock of what they thought the American people were vs what they are. It’s hard to understand and accept.
As foreigners, our views are heavily affected by things like Hollywood, celebrity and visibility to the “best of America”. But the bulk of America is not that, at all. So the veneer is torn away and it’s jarring to most people.
The only positive I see in all this is that we get to watch the US get what they voted for. Pain can be a teacher, but I doubt they can learn from it. Any and all agony from this will just be the other parties fault, always. Too much venom and malice in the politics and too little earnest substance.
Most Americans like and support Trump. That IS America.
Trump and team don’t need to win the election. They just need to make it tainted with enough irregularities that it forms the basis for the entire thing to be called into question. Even if that evidence is created by them. And this time they’re more prepared for that outcome. They’ve had years to work on his scenario.
The court cases and investigations will go on for years.
Doesn’t need to win a vote at all.
Has there been any movement from those wallets in the years since Satoshi went dark?
We’re not going to hit those targets anyway… SO LET’S MAKE IT WAY FUCKING WORSE
I wonder if we’ll ever get to the place where people like this unexpectedly meet violent ends. They’ll sacrifice any number of lives for their shareholders interests.
Any one want to guess who will really end up paying for the price hike?
It’s not AT&T.
I believe the answer is “A lot of Americans”.
Exactly, if you choose to work for a company then that is in support and furtherance of that companies goals / operations.
We are not so helpless as we sometimes like to claim.
I’m not super into anime, no connoisseur by any measure, but I recently felt like there might be something great to watch in that area. I looked up highly rated anime and Frieren came up.
I’ve watched a few episodes and it seems, well there’s no question it’s well made and a great story, but it’s pretty heavy. Sad at times. Does it get happier and more fun, or is this the tone throughout?
If so I might have to try something else.
With his ethics there’s no way I’d let any company controlled by him attach itself to my brain.
I have a hard time imagining that for any profit driven corporation, but most especially him.
This space is less capitalistic than you might be used to. It’s more of a small town square, and we hang corporates for team building.
We demand infinite growth. Why? Because shareholders want to buy shares and sell them later for more.
Do anything it takes to make that transaction happen, cut people’s jobs en masse, whatever.
Forever.
He’s broadcasting to all businesses and billionaires that anyone who strongly supports him gets their back rubbed right back.
He’s not saying EVs are great, that we should support them because it’s good policy, the right move for America etc.
Its simply quid pro quo.
Yeah, fully agree. This is one of the reasons big tech is dangerous with AI, their sense of humanity and their instincts on what’s right are way off.
Oozes superficiality. Say anything do anything for market share.
That’s up to Trump, because your vaunted checks and balances are gone.
Think he’s going to show restraint? Insight? Empathy?
