The latter

Very cool resource! Thank you! I’m looking up all sorts of stuff in there

Where are people getting these numbers? Eggs have been above $7 for months

You guys are obsessed with capitalism. It’s a psychological defense mechanism that protects you from encountering the actual complexity of existence.

A friend of mine is a federal employee, and hates his job. Has felt trapped for a while.

Just got a letter offering him the option to resign and be paid through September 30.

He says it’s a huge relief.

Go to work, work your shift, then come home and set a timer for 30 minutes.

Use that 30 minutes to work on your resume or send job applications.

Fulfill your obligations to the world so you don’t starve, then also fulfill your obligations to yourself because man does not live on bread alone.

Life is only hell when you have no destination worth getting to.

If you don’t watch your youtube, how can you have any lemmy?

No evidence linking him to the crime?

Yeah the number of pardons Biden performed raised the bar like crazy.

Trump doesn’t need to think about re-election this time around so he has more political freedom.

Well sure if it started off as bread

Either the situation is worth the sacrifice or it isn’t. If you feel like you’re getting the short end of the stick, try taking into account the spiritual benefits of doing the right thing.

If that doesn’t tip the balance into feeling like you made the right choice, you probably made the wrong choice.

When one is actually clear about one’s values, and their relative position in one’s personal hierarchy, it relieves an enormous amount of existential stress.

If this kind of thing is bothering you regularly, then you probably need to update your definition of “asshole”.

Oh no not the Inaugural Lunch!

It’s okay to admit that censorship is the last refuge of those who have no point.

Yup, could be a veterans thing. Both these terrorists served at Fort Bragg.

Thank God for Finland.

wow

I think that’s too far. It’s such a good story, and it’s the way it’s always been in my lifetime before: you’re born in the USA, you get automatic US citizenship. No matter why your parents happen to be here. Maybe you have a layover in Miami on the way from Buenos Aires London, you go into labor and have the child at a hospital near the airport, that kid is a US citizen.

That makes sense to me (admittedly, probably because that’s the way it’s always been).

It’s like a nice little bonus for some people, and people can aim for it, and it’s a good story.

There were 51 “former intelligence officials” who signed a letter stating the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation. (a lie)

Three digits’ worth being alarmed about Gabbard being their boss doesn’t bother me at all.
