I came here looking for something different than Reddit but I’m actually pretty done. I try to post, start threads and conversations but the ones that don’t get deleted because of some vague rule get questioned to hell as to why it exists that it makes me wish I hadn’t posted at all.
And of course the apologists will come out of the woodwork to admonish people who have nothing to do with the state of things while simultaneously having nothing to say to the ones actually responsible. How nice.
I love how you’re attacking a person for a comment about a sawmill they didn’t shut down, and a president they didn’t vote for. All while completely ignoring the two parties in this article that have any true fault.
Apologists like you, are just as bad as the supporters, since you share the insatiable drive to find some other party to blame.
Also this is lemmy, if you were so into semantics, you would have thought about your comments a little more carefully. People who throw around the “you belong on Reddit” insult are just as pathetic as the trolls that are still over on Reddit. They have a slew of “communities “ if that’s what you prefer; for apologists. Why not check it out?
Just because there is an objective explanation to something doesn’t mean it is known. The human brain is widely a mystery even now, and to say anything different would be magical thinking.
I don’t believe that there aren’t various scientific and chemical processes happening in our brain and things like this can be a product. However, there isn’t enough information about the processes of the human brain to say this is the only thing happening. The stories are interesting, and are anomalous occasions most humans seem to have in common more times than others.
I can also subscribe to the thought that acute concentration can help you put things together; but maybe there is something else as well. I’m glad you were at least able to piece it together.
I’m glad you’re here to talk about it! There were some parts that definitely had me rolling, like; why stand there thinking about whether it can hurt you or not? It’s a snake! I avoid them all.
Also every time I see “lizard brain” it makes me giggle.
One of the things people constantly disagree with me about is children. Specifically how hard it really is to raise one, and that everyone isn’t meant to have them.
Many people don’t understand that where children begin, you end. There isn’t going to be time for things you used to do on your own time, at your own leisure. There are no natural born parents, people that can function on little sleep and overwhelming circumstances. You give up peace, money, autonomy and you don’t stop parenting until you’re gone. There are a large number of people who feel like one day, they’ll become a parent and that will be their identity. Some people start their journey in parenthood wholeheartedly believing their child is an extension of themselves; not a developing, unique person that may or may not be completely different- like no one else in the family.
Having children is the most important job that you will ever have. You don’t get to quit when you realize that maybe you aren’t cut out for it. That’s why it’s important to know yourself, and work on your trauma and shortcomings before they bleed into your children. If you aren’t prepared to make sure they have the absolute best you can provide them in all aspects of life; why are you having them? If you aren’t ready to let your priorities fall to the wayside while you guide a tiny human into themselves, you aren’t prepared.
Literally spending Christmas there because of parter’s family in a few weeks.
It’s not the worst place I have been to, but it is expensive, the people shout at each other mostly in heavy accents, and there is nothing to do. The food?
