Thanks for the link. Not a bad distraction! I hope there’s a large catalog in case I want to treat it like the random Stumble button of yore (which I must have hit hundreds of times at least).
I lost some, I won some.

StumbleUpon was the best. I do miss it.
This post specifically says you can’t (without the bypass many won’t understand how to do).
Can’t get past the paywall but I hope India will see a better future with a leader who cares for all its people.
Ransomware suspending hospital operations? That’s an actual horror story…
Biden’s older than a Boomer though, he’s Silent Generation. (Trump is on the older end, but indeed a Boomer.) I’m curious if you’ll ever have a Gen X president some day, but it’s not really generation that matters so much as having someone of reasonable intelligence who has empathy and integrity instead of yet another power-networking fundraising wizard.
I’m sure this has been solved already but I’m just wondering how you ensure people are voting based on the helpfulness and/or merit of the response. That’s the ideal on Lemmy but it’s obviously not always the case here. Presumably, you’d have to be logged in on the other platform to vote but you can just see the discussion from Lemmy, I guess?
Useful constraints would focus discussion to keep questions/replies brief, relevant, and hopefully helpful, wouldn’t they? I just wonder how up and downvoting would work since that would go very differently from Lemmy.
Horrific and sickening, to see an aid organization treated like this, especially knowing the situation in Gaza. Depraved actions like these will not be forgotten by decent people of the world.
Yes, because a stern talking to will make all the difference, when they’re already attacking people there either way.
Never even mind how at first I somehow thought the headline stopped before “until,” and continued at Biden. 🙄
Or that (if I’m not mixing events in my head), only 4 of the 22 killed in that attack were even adults.
It doesn’t. Graeber was an anthropologist and Wengrow is an archaeologist. It’s a review of existing evidence from past civilizations (the diversity of which most people are hugely ignorant about), making the case the most common representations of “civilization” and “progress” are severely limited, probably to a detrimental extent since we often can only base our conceptions of what is possible on what we know.
That’s highly subjective, but the fascinating book The Dawn of Everything argues otherwise. There are even parts about the anthropological evidence some peoples just up and changed systems every so often (yes, non-violently). Our problem as people in the modern era is many can’t imagine anything else, not that no one ever did.
Yeah that phrasing was especially egregious.
Without careful, organized action by regular citizens, this will be treated as yet another opportunity for the wealthiest high rollers to shore up assets-- especially since they’ve long had the power to adjust markets to their whims.
Seems when both parties in a 2 party-dominated system have unpopular candidates, the horse race ends up being purely about who turns off their base the least. Not who they impress or win over, but just how many votes one doesn’t lose and the other does.
If they were just verbally protesting their presence and not committing assaulting I’d understand as there are legit reasons for Jewish people not to like Christian Zionism… but the Israeli state finds them politically convenient I guess, so of course they let it fly. 🙄
To be fair, the pope condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza as well. Fundamentalist evangelical Christian Zionists have more financial and media power than others though, I imagine, and many others are just plain silent.

Per hour? It’s all a blur to me at this point.
