    Dear Americans, how do you go back to normal after such an election campaign?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I really can't understand this. I have family and friends who vote differently to me, but I would never let that get in the way of our relationship, and I can't understand the mentality of people who do.

    I mean, if someone I knew turned out to be a full on neo-Nazi, then I'd steer well clear. But if someone just votes for the other main party to the one I do, who cares?

  • It would be, but is that what's happening?

    The article seemed to mention men and women, but nothing to do with race apart from the headline.

  • It's... confusing.

  • "Got confused"?

    Was he spinning it around to hypnotise people, or something? How does a penis confuse people?

    Or is it a poorly phrased statement on the website?

  • Headline leaning into the culture wars a bit there, isn't it?

    I'd fully expect a program like this to favour white men given they make up the majority of the armed forces. It's called maths. Or "math" I guess, in America.

  • If Israel wanted to commit a genocide in Palestine, they could literally carpet bomb the entire place in a day and be done with it.

  • It's because I didn't go on a rant about capitalism.

  • My point is that slowing down the heating of the planet is doable (though you'd need the majority of the world contributing, which is highly unlikely to happen), but we can't reverse the damage that has already been done, which some people seem to think is possible.

    We're not as powerful as we think we are.

  • Do people seriously think we could "reverse" climate change?

    That's not how the climate works.

  • What smartphone do your use? What's the best phone you had owned?

    Jump

  • I have a Pixel 8a. Before that I had a Pixel 4a. Both of these are probably the best phones I've owned.

    I say both, because for someone who isn't a heavy user, the only real benefits of the 8a over the 4a for me are the bump in performance and the 120hz screen. Oh, and updates too, of course.

  • You can go on a protest whenever you want. Don't expect your employers to be enthusiastic about it if you organise one in your workplace, however.

  • Lol, what?

    You represent your employers at work, not every waking hour.

  • It's literally how employment works. Unless you're self-employed, you represent the people who pay you.

  • If you work for a company, you're a representative of that company. If you disagree with the businesses they work with, don't work for that company.

    Or if you really have a problem and want to express yourself, don't do it at your workplace. It's stupid.

  • Why would you organise this on company headquarters without the consent of the company?

    If you tell your employers that you hate the way they operate, what do you think is going to happen?

  • What subscription services do you actually pay for and get value from?

  • Same here. I use YouTube a lot so it's nice to have no ads, and the inclusion of YouTube Music is great and I've switched from Spotify because of it.
