I usually just blame how autistic Lemmy is. Unironically, the amount of neurodivergent people here is huge and a common trait is focusing on the wrong fuckin details, especially with hypotheticals
Best I can do is tree-fiddy
I am, I'm still voting for the candidate I think I can help move on the issue instead of just letting the guy who will send the military against protestors win.
What should be and what is are almost never the same thing. We should keep pushing for what should be while facing the hard truths of what the reality actually is.
It really does feel like the people sitting on their hands are trying to be morally superior while the rest of us accept the dirty work and are doing what we can to not further enable genocide.
A vote isn't a person's whole voice. Let's take the small victory of "not a fascist" then protest the shit out of the continued US involvement with Israel. Political action doesn't just end with the election.
It's not really "dirty" in the same sense but I'm a massage therapist. Don't think it gets more literally hands-on as far as a job goes lol. I primarily do deep tissue work, I REALLY enjoy injury-focused work, so it can be a bit tiring but it's generally pretty satisfying.
Skooch is a former LoL content creator. He's still pretty damn funny
You never get full frontal of dudes because many of even the most sex-positive people hold a double standard against penises. Any time a penis might have to be on screen, it's vulgar to them and at most belongs in humor.
Or maybe they're trying to describe the feeling it evokes and aren't being that literal.
I swear Texas license plates are like warning signs for bad drivers
I'm from Arizona, I know this. I'm saying the mestizos who wouldn't get pissed at being referred to as such are far less in number than you think. Most ID far more with the colonizers than the colonized
I get you're trying to do, but it's almost disrespectful to say royalty is made up. Whether their grounds for ruling is still or not. Monarchies have had very, very lasting impacts on the world around us, almost never for the better. Going "Oh hahaha, look at them and their silliness" when many monarchs actively ruined countries, feels a little dismissive.
