  • I think I'm following what you're saying but I haven't read anything about this. Where can I read more?

  • I'm really sorry. I can't imagine the helplessness of watching that happen around you.

    AOC: You can’t ‘earn’ a billion dollars

    Jump

  • I'm not a fan exactly, but I often see people use her wealth to make other criticisms about her like, "She's not an artist, she's a product." It's a criticism I never hear people make about male artists, and of all wealthy pop stars, she deserves SOME credit. She pays her stage crew well and takes time at every show to recognize them. She has writing credits on all her songs. She endorses Democrats for president (yes, at the last minute, but it's more than most celebrities do.)

    Poll: 72 percent say there’s too much money in American politics

    Jump

  • I really try to avoid fatalism, but I struggle to think of how we put citizens united back in the bottle (other than, of course, violent revolution.)

  • What if your marriage is reverse of typical? She's the unavailable one

    Jump

  • I'm in a similar boat. I've been going to therapy for over 20 years. I've been with my wife for 13 years. She's funny, creative, and widely beloved by almost everyone who meets her. At home, she's emotionally hard to connect with. She's never been to therapy and sees no reason to start because "nothing's wrong with her." She meets many of the stereotypes that we usually apply to men - can't identify her emotions or claims she doesn't have them, and doesn't understand "why we have to talk about everything." We've been to couples therapy a couple times and she generally hated it, saying the therapist made it seem like everything was her fault. I know I deserve a partner who will join me in processing hard stuff, but it's been a very long road in trying to get there.

    ‘Shark Tank’ star Kevin O’Leary defends Utah data center project amid backlash

    Jump

  • I haven't been able to stomach it for maybe 8 years, but I used to really enjoy seeing people come up with clever solutions for annoying problems. There were plenty of people who made some little gadget in their garage and needed seed money to produce it at scale. The show sort of devolved into a tech bros who made a new app, and who didn't actually need investors but were looking for some free exposure.

    What is it like to live with a black-skinned woman/girl?

    Jump

  • I support you supporting curiosity. If OP is asking in good faith, they deserve not to get torn apart.

    That said, "racism" doesn't only describe explicit disparagement of one race by another. Racism can also be a feature of language, systems, communities, etc.

  • I cringe when my (well-meaning, truly) Democrat siblings mention NYT as a trusted news source. "Did Netanyahu Stumble Into a War Crime by Nuking an Orphanage?"

  • To your last point, there's a great book called Survival of the Richest by Doug Rushkoff. He describes "The Mindset" in which tech billionaires keep trying to use tech to escape the climate apocalypse that they created. They simply lose the ability to think of any solution besides further growth.

  • The Diabolical Lies podcast had an episode recently where they explored the history of sexual orientation. Apparently it was only in the last 100 years that we started using "homosexual" to describe a person's identity rather than a person's behavior. Personally I support you identifying however you want, though I understand other people being less flexible.

  • Democrats throw cold water on shutdown deal, call for more ICE reforms

    Jump

  • I'm not making excuses for the dems complete lack of backbone, or their complicity in all the current horrors, but I do think this conversation should always acknowledge that many millions of (poor, undocumented, disabled) people would be utterly fucked during a total shutdown.

  • What do you cook when you want to impress your guests?

    Jump

  • For dinner, anything from Alison Roman. For dessert, anything from Claire Saffitz. It's a pretty basic take but their recipes are simple and incredibly tasty.

  • Can anyone recommend a small vacuum for cleaning my desk and work area that doesn't break the bank?

  • What's your budget exactly? I haven't tried them, but Consumer Reports has high ratings for the DustBuster CHV1410L and the ION HHVI315JO42. You can get either one for under $50.

  • Well, That’s One Way to Sell Americans on Electric Cars. The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price.

  • Oh, I fully believe community is the most important resource. I wouldn't be driving off somewhere to fend for myself, I would just want my car to be functional.

  • My last car was an EV. I loved how it drove, I loved charging at home and never having to stop at the gas station, and I told everyone around me, "If you can afford it, you have an ethical obligation to buy a hybrid or an EV." Since Trump 2.0 I've been concerned about some form of collapse that would make me flee my home - natural disaster, violent military occupation, etc. I started to wonder, "What's stopping Elon from limiting access to all these superchargers?" Public chargers are much slower than gas, and they're easily vandalized. The whole thing just seems like a liability at this point. At least in a Mad Max scenario I could barter for a can of guzzoline.

    I hate that I'm even considering any of this.

  • Hisense TVs force owners to watch intrusive ads when switching inputs, visiting the home screen, or even changing channels — practice infuriates consumers, brand denies wrongdoing

    Jump

  • I got a TCL last year and it wouldn't let me use the TV until I set up the internet. After 4 factory resets I figured out how to put it in store demo mode, and plugged in a separate streaming device that connects to the internet. Now I realize I could have connected the TV to the internet and then blocked it at the network level.

  • Kamala Harris might run for president again in 2028. Please, no | Arwa Mahdawi

    Jump

  • In 2020 Bernie and Biden were the front-runners, and then all the other candidates dropped out and endorsed Biden. So it wasn't ratfucked in an illegal way, but in a "torpedo a popular leftist in favor of a right-of-center establishment neolib" way.

  • What is something you dont care to understand or "get"?

    Jump

  • This would have been my top line comment. I wish anime wasn't such a glaring blind spot for me, because it's something so many people connect on. But I see it like reality TV. There's 1000 shows with 1000 episodes each, and some shows are probably great, but I've never been interested.
