I still just get my pirated stuff from the top result on thepiratebay.org. It might be old-fogey work, but it’s yet to fail me.

Shit, that suggests 5-6x higher than reported in the US. Certainly believable.

Most western countries use extremely warped methods for unemployment statistics to help pretend that it’s an individual’s fault they can’t find good employment. The US frequently reports the U-3 category as ‘unemployment’, when U-6 is closer (and still underreported). The UK unemployment rate excludes people out of work for 4 weeks (and many other exceptions like 0-hour contracts, or outside circumstances obstructing them).

The true rates are almost always at least twice as high.

Libs will promote the genocide of all life before they admit maybe their social structure causes unnecessary suffering

And you’re saying it isn’t beanis?

Scheisse, I walk or run 20-30 minutes a day in the UK, and that’s still less than ideal.

Bears do hunt.

These are not exclusive terms.

This happening under capitalism is just another example of what life would be like under communism smh

Exactly. The Dems have plenty of dedication to maintaining the status quo and fucking us all over, that really isn’t the issue.

That Hitler fellow is really into ruining everything for everyone, but bless his cotton socks, he is trying very hard!

I like these normal length dashes you used

Happens to a lot of (most?) people, including us late bloomers. It is okay, honestly.

Took me two years to get over my first relationship. When I ended my last, abusive, relationship of ~6 years (on/off), I literally sat down and told myself that I wouldn’t be able to love or be loved by anyone again - It’s a cliché, I knew that at the time, but I honestly believed it. Every day for like a year, I was plagued with the simple thought “I am broken”.

Eventually that feeling just… faded. I joined a couple local groups, and not much later I met a hecka cool person and we hit it off.

It’s a very personal thing and it’s honestly okay to grieve a relationship for years, don’t feel bad about it. Just don’t close yourself off to the world because of it, either. In my case, spending time with people is often very helpful to renormalise and let the social bit of your brain know that all is okay, but it still takes time.

I don’t care - stop using long dashes. It’s a useless character and the less you use it the easier it is to discern AI slop without even having to think. It’ll only be a year or two before ChatGPT stops using it, so don’t undermine a very cool and assuredly temporary useful discernment tool.

A normal length dash does everything you want. You know why nobody knows em-dash existed before? Because nobody ever noticed you using it and everyone reads it as a normal dash.

You can have your em-dash back in a couple years.

The Ark, too, had this as a plot point. A rich guy shot aerosols into the atmosphere that incurably poisoned a huge portion of the population. Both scarily plausible honestly.

I suspect the line should read “carbon dioxide emissions”.

And the repeated votes on the right to food:

And the vote on not glorifying Nazis (though the west abstained):

And to a lesser extent, the vote on admitting Palestine as a full member state:

The west still abstains and votes for bad stuff all the time. But OP image really is accurate. America and Israel were the only ones to vote no on all three. They specifically really fuck over the most basic of shit.
