I agree with a lot of the posts here. It can be great to relax, but try not to use it as a crutch. I’m this way with alcohol. I don’t reccomend shaming yourself for your vices and coping mechanisms, but look closely at what it’s doing to you and try to keep it under control. Set rules, arbitrary as they may have to be, to make sure you can improve your life and enjoy it while you do it. Maybe workout, volunteer, or work on a hobby first. Maybe as simple as no weed on weeknights and/or during the day. If you break the rules you set, don’t feel ashamed, just acknowledge it and move forward. Some people when trying to improve their habits will “break a streak” then feel like they failed and give up.
I think that’s just them being gel. There are generic gel pills that in my experience work just as fast.
Fair that the cities were worse, but the islands were not uninhabited. The people there were evacuated (they were told temporarily) and the place they were evacuated to was still within the fallout zone. A lot of people died pretty much immediately and they’re still dealing with increased cancer and birth defects today.
This was when these weapons were fairly new, and what little information we had about them was not given to the people of these people before they were pressured into allowing their islands to be testing grounds.
Open plans and schematics, interoperable, standardized. I should be able to unplug a component from my computer and plug it into another one. I should be able to replace broken parts. I should be able to, if feasible, make it myself with off the shelf components.
I don’t know how well they work, but people are working on tools for navigating to Godot.
Imagine showing up to repossess a picture of an ape. You would think you’re being fucked with.
It depends on your definitions, but many on the left, myself included, don’t consider liberals to be leftists. Liberals are primarily capitalists, and while they are left within the very pro capitalist mainstream, they are not “leftists”, which to me means anticapitalist.
In my experience most liberals at least have problems with capitalism, they just can’t imagine a better system. I think leftists need to be less shitty, and use less gotchas and jargon, especially to people who are allies on social issues. Though this is frustrating when some of you’re local queer elders are small business owners who underpay their employees and hoard property.
